Ok, I posted something in the film clip fourm, the one called "Best spwn kill in history" and no one replys. But when I post a screenshot, everyone replys. Is anyone else frustrated about the fact that there aren't enough people in in sertian fourmes?

Over at HFCS we're constantly hard...

Wait...
What?

I find three solutions to your problem:

1) Establish Internet Communism and assign everyone a forum in which they must complete a post quota or else they will be... punished.

2) Build a zombie army and give them the two commands of making other zombies and then posting on the Bungie forums.

3) Don't worry about it and continue to be a good community member.

Personally, I would choose option #3.

I think it has alot less to do with fewer members and a lot more to do with; people liking to only make threads of their awesome in game stuff rather then to do that and comment on others. So, in other words..More thread making and less posting.

How could I be a good community member, if there is no good community?

And, this is the B.net general fourm, this is my suggestion to being a good community.

Even this thread is lacking.

Don't forget to look both ways.

Perhaps people respond to the screenshot posts more often because they can see it without having to go to their XBox first. To talk about a clip, they'd have to see your post, download the file, watch the post, and then respond to the post.

It's a krazy killionare, can it not be interesting. And can Bungie make it able so you can watch a clip on the internet?

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

Look at it like this; a screenshot topic only requires one click, where a clip requires one click, downloading, turning on a console, going into the theater and watching a clip. One takes no effort to accomplish and it only takes 2 seconds, the other takes a bit more effort and it takes much linger than two seconds (usually).

I look at screenshots all the time, but I rarely look at film clips. I just don't have the time nor the patience.

what can we do about it? Nothing. So, don't let it get you down. Keep creating things and keep posting them. There is no need for it to be validated by people commenting on it.

Thank you. You are the only ninja that has replyed and not banned me. I am glad there is a ninja on Bungie.nat that is decent and has good advice. Your right, I will keep trying.

How could I be a good community member, if there is no good community?

But how can there be a good community without first the good community members?
What the EvilCam said is right. And your forgetting who your audience is. Gamers have no patience and add in some cases adhd. If they have to wait 5 mins it might as well be 3 hours.

I am a Floodian

Clips also take longer for people to watch and reply to.

*nevermind, evilcam said it*

Another thing to think about is that spawn kills aren't exactly something to celebrate.

You are so banned. NO ONE encourages Evilcam.

Don't take his advice. Last time I took his advice I woke up in a bucket of ice minus one kidney.


Also - the community is stabilising, I can feel it. The idiocy is sort of dropping away a little. The files forums may actually function soon. Instead of being an instant-graveyard of pointless, crappy threads.

I'm crossing my fingers.
