Who is Disembodied Soul?

I recieved a message from him stating that a ninja warned me for bumping a thread. I was curious as to who "Disembodied Soul" is, because his position is "Emotional Support". He only has 4 forum posts, and they are all weird mysterious things. Actually, 3 of his 4 posts say "I dont think that means what you think it means." It's weird. I've never seen him post anything in the forums until i did some research on who he is.

Who is this guy?

Making social revolutions cool since 1808.

He is a soul lost in the bungie servers. He is an example of why not to piss off the ninjas too much.

He's the the automatic "moderator?" in the Bungie servers. He is computer controlled and gives out warning messages and ban messages.

He also bans alternate accounts.

Ok thanks. it was my first warning I've ever received so I didn't understand who the guy (thing) was.

But how does that explain his forum posts?

Loose talk is noose talk.

The soul is currently in a 3 by 4 box, and is chained to a computer, forever doomed to moderate the site... or that might be Stosh... can't tell. Lesson to learn: Never release source code for the best video game on the planet or lose your soul and be trapped in a box.

A More Complete Compendium of a Bungie History
-Thanatos 117

The Disembodied Soul was a former Bungie employee. Back in the day he jeopardized the future of the Marathon series when he pirated the source code of the game, and later applied the wrong labels to an entire batch of Marathon: Infinity discs. So Bungie punished him with a punishment worse then death. Bungie held him down and the Soul Extraction Machine took his soul and sentenced him to maintain the Bungie help section. If he is lucky they might reincarnate him as a toad some day. Welcome to Machu Picchu.

Lol.
Though somehow... I doubt they will reincarnate the man who pirates the source code of his employer's game.
And im sorry but i have no idea how Machu Picchu comes into this.

I would prefer to get banned by a mod or employee because Soul, being an automated forum bot, can't explain what I did wrong.

Oh, wow... Soul himself posted... Ladies and germs, this is officially his fifth-ever post. I'm documenting this on Bungiepedia.

There are official keywords that make Soul say things. No one knows the complete list, though. See here.

After almost two years of silence we hear from Disembodied again, except for those who got a PM from him during that time period. Most of those who did are probably not around to tell, or at least don't want to tell.

I got one from him. He's seems like a nice fellow. And since he's a piece of code, as I have been informed, I guess we can call him a Cylon.
