I am new to Bungie.net. When I send my friends a message do they get it on Bungie.net or their XBL gamertag? How do I post a comment on a thread also?

Hi-hi-hello, and welcome. You shouldn't really make an intro thread about a being a new member, but hi, welcome, and hello anyway =]

It was a question about how the PM system worked, the thing about him being new had no particular role in the thread.

That's the way I saw it at least. =)

I'm feeling the love in the room. Here's where you can make a proper introduction...although getting hugged by Bapa seems pretty conclusive :-)

That is do to a bug of the system that wouldn't let people undo their their symbol if they wanted to. Each time you edit your profile you need to select "Show" or else it defaults to "Hide".

Go back to your profile, click edit/personal information/customize halo 3/show then save the changes. Welcome to B.net, we're all jerks.

If Bungie sees something on the files forum that they like, they will add it to favorites. To my understanding, you cannot recommend anything to them.

By the way, the link to the rules is in my sig. I'd read them over if I was you. Don't want to get banned this early on.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

It depends on the ratings it receives from us members. You can grade the map, screen shot, video, etc. on a 5-Star scale, 1 being terrible and 5 being great. You simply vote on it and the files with the best feedback are considered a "Bungie Favorite".

No they have no special powers. The title is assosiated with their trust rating. Have a read of this thread, it contains all the information compiled about the titles.

No, not at all.
I suggest that you read this for the best possible explanation of the member titles.

EDIT: Tom beat me to it.

No, but, for some reason, people tend to listen to the Mythic and Legendary members. So if you ever recive the titles give good advices for people will listen to you.

Yep, for normal users like you and me the ranking system goes as follows:

Member
Heroic Member
Legendary Member
Mythic Member

Your ranking is determined by the ammount of trust you have, time as a member, and a variety of other things. I believe someone already prvivded a link to a thread that goes into better detail about this.

Clips

I'm not really sure what this is for.

I am a penguin. Every day I boogie on down to the water, and eat fish. Once, while fishing in the deepest depths, I saw great Cthulhu... And he said to me "Shine, to thine own self be true. They can't tell you what to do once you've gone guru." Also, I should tell you, "slide".
