Stop being a Jackass B, s/he can say whatever he likes about your song as long as it isn't against the rules.


I'd have to agree with Oni, the only words that sum up that song are 'No.'

And I can respond in kind (assuming its not against the rules). Pointless criticisms such as "you have way too much free time" are better left unsaid as they are essentially flaming, which happens to be against the rules. I wrote this to be light-hearted and an attempt at some Bungie holiday cheer. Notice how I didn't have a problem with the person whose criticism said that some of the days have wording that were too many syllables? Because that's a valid and constructive criticism. I have no problem with that.

I'm starting to think that Achilles was right that sadly people are too stuck on themselves on the Public Forums to take something as just as whimsical gesture at humor. I tried at least.

Yes, you can respond in kind, but your post was, in my opinion, flaming. Far more on the flaming side then a simple 'no.'

I have no problem with humor, It's just the fact that it wasn't very funny, in my opinion and probably in their opinions as well.

Best part of all of this:

Yeah, I wouldn't expect much more from a person with a 2-day old B.net account.

~B.B.


That is enough to lose my respect indefinitely. Your amount of time here does not make you better then other people.

That's fine if you don't find it funny. I couldn't care less. However posting useless criticisms of "no"...are pointless. Just like when Mike D does community spotlights. Being critical is fine. Doing it in a pointless, non-constructive manner is not, at least not in my opinion.

*edit* I'm not stupid enough to try to make an argument or comment based upon my join date. That has nothing to do with it. xOni is more than likely an ALT account, and personally I'm getting tired of all the people with them. If you don't think he's an ALT, check his posting history. He's quite insightful about B.net for someone with a 2-day old account.

He may be an alt, it still doesn't matter.

You were being a jackass, and personally, I"m getting tired of all of the jackasses here.

Now, I'm leaving this thread, as I don't intend to start even more petty argument.

Edit: Oh yeah, I forgot. It wasn't that I was being bias against you, I'd be on your side if you hadn't been so damn rude.

My opinion of that whole issue is that B.B's comment about post age was clearly implying that the user was an alt who used that curtain to say whatever the heck he/she wanted. Honestly, B.B. wasn't being nearly as rude as the initial two flames were that he quoted.

But it's a nice song, B.B. Especially for you two just putting it together in a short time. I agree with the comment about the syllables, but a lot of the lines are also very clever.

much as a "Thanks for saving us from

My sentiments exactly.

And Berserker, I'm going to be singing this for hours when we play, so be ready. I have a beautiful singing voice.

My God, this thread makes me so angry. I mean, BB makes a cool, productive article to spread the cheer and be a good guy and you idiots come in here and put him down or worse, derail his thread by arguing about the technicalities of arguing. Yeah - a lot of you just made my list.

And believe me, I don't check it twice, if I see your name you are gone. So, keep your heads down. I blacklisted one pointless poster from this thread already.

To be fair, YOU weren't the only person who wrote this song! Copyright infringement! I do believe that your wonderful girlfriend helped you write this song! I see how it is, women come up with everything and men just take credit for it. That makes me a sad panda.


Hmm, that's odd....

Are you sure? My records don't show you on the list...

I'm very surprised by this thread. I enjoyed it, and although the lines didn't match quite right, it was still humorous and jolly. Apparently some people didn't see the point...*sigh*

Oh good god are you people seriously arguing about what I said? Somebody said "No" and I thought it was pretty funny and it actually summed up my thoughts about the song. Yes this is an alternate account, who cares? A lot of people have alternate accounts, Ninjag has one, his original was True Underdog but he obviously made a new gamertag, Pezza has one because his old one was hacked, and I have one because obviously I made a new gamertag. What's the problem? I should be punished because I wanted to link my new gamertag?

Why didn't you flame sentashi(sp?) is it because he has more seniority than me? He's the one who made the comment I quoted. Please, basing your whole argument over a join date is just blatant ignorance. I apologized if I came across like a jackass and hurt your feelings. This thread has already been derailed to no end and I realize I'm just adding on to that but I had to at least put out my side before everyone just classifies me as a mindless troll.

Sorry that I quoted somebody saying no, after this little drama episode I'll be sure to not do it again. I also feel that Shadow was blacklisted for biased reasons but it isn't my place to defend him, I'm sure he knows he can talk to Achronos or a Master Moderator about that.

Apologies for the syllables and rhyming not matching up exactly, but I think that B.B. and I did a fair job considering we wrote it from memory. We were struggling trying the remember the order of verses without having the song right in front of us. That being said, I still like and will be singing it while B.B. is dangling from a ladder hanging Christmas lights.


You don't have to be sorry about it. It's still well-written and very creative, especially from memory. And it spreads that Christmas spirit. Or at least is does after you ignore most of the replies in this thread.

"It's not who I am underneath, but what I do that defines me."

Here's my meager version of 'Frosty the Snowman,' Bungie style:
(I think it's terrible, but I wrote it in many 10 minutes.)

Bungie Studios,
Was a jolly happy soul
With a best selling game named Halo,
And Ninjas to ban us all.


Bungie Studios,
Is a fairytale they say
It was made of souls
But the children know
How step 7 will complete one day.


There must have been some magic
In those old games they made
For when they made Myth, and Marathon too
They began to dance around


Bungie Studios
Was alive as they could be
And the children say
Achronos never laughs or plays
He'd ban us all, happily.


Bungie Studios
Knew the Webmaster was drunk that day
So they said let's run
And we'll have some fun
Now before we're all banned away


Down to the village
With beer bottles in their hand
Running here and there all around the square
Saying 'Where is Ling-Ling's head?"


They were led down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And they only paused a moment when
They heard him holler stop


Bungie Studios
Had to hurry on its way
But they waved goodbye
Saying don't you cry
We'll give some Recon armor out some day


Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frankie's head
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Over the non hills of hair!

I'm now seeming to recall a version of Winter Wonderland that was Bungie-fied, but for the life of me I can't remember who did it or where it was posted.

I don't know, isn't that what these forums are for - insulting other people? I mean cmon, that's the sole reason Bungie created these forums pretty much.

Of course it's okay with me. I'm glad you got the *idea* of this thread. I'm not looking to sway opinions, I'm not even giving an opinion unless you count my comments about the "spawns". And even that is intended to be light hearted. Funny thing that wasn't mentioned was that while we were doing this song in the car, we were recording the lyrics via my cell phone. Not very conducive to making incredible prose, but that wasn't our intention anyways.

I'm glad you took the initiative Duardo to make another parody song. That's what I'm trying to get people to do/think by this thread. Have fun, go wild. Give me your best Bungie Holiday song parody.

I apologize for the hostilities earlier, and I hope that this thread gets back on track of being jolly. I don't want to end up with coal because I keep going off on people. And I should never had made a comment about someone being on an ALT, that's not my place to make that call or comment about it. That's B.net User numero uno's jurisdiction.

This is pure gold Duardo!! I completely laughed out loud and my dog barked at me for how loud I laughed. It might have only been 10 minutes of work, but it's still a great step in the right direction.

Something tells me he will be dangling from the gutters because the ladder was pulled out from underneath of him. If you do not do it I will. :P

Screw both you hippies...

One of you shouldn't be posting on B.net right now because they are at school and I'm a big giant hypocrite because most of my posting goes on while I'm at school!

Maybe we can work in something with "I saw Mommy kissin' Master Chief" and IWHBYD...ah the possibilities.

Overrating themselves

As for the rest of the problems in this thread, they wouldnt have never happened if we just kept women off the internet........

and roads........

and anywhere outside the kitchen.
