It looks like they pick you, based on merit. So your best bet is to kiss lots of ass and be on your best behavior.

But really, do you want to be stuck modding this place when Halo 2 comes out? Hell no, you want to be playing it.

They better shut the forums down when it comes out.


They won’t. And after H2 launches, I’m under the impression that BungieHQ is going to be shutting down for a couple of weeks, so that the employees can get back to everything they’ve been neglecting for the past year or so+.

And who is Bungie going to need to rely on to babysit the forums? The mods. And no self-respecting Bungie fan, especially one dedicated enough to be a mod, can turn Bungie down in their time of need.

So in my mind, modship = lack of Halo 2 launch goodness.

Officium quod Fidelitas.

Well Bungie HQ shutting down would be news to me. They started Halo 2 one week after they finished Halo, so if they have anything else planned, they will probably be on it like a fat kid on a cup cake.

Mods don't apply, they give up there organic bodies to become robots.

If Frankie only makes minimum wage for his job, I'm telling Bungie I'll do it for less!

Poor suckers...


Not necessarily, as I'm sure they will be compensated in one form or another. Shishka has mentioned that he's getting an easter egg in H2, for example. Because he's a mod? Maybe, but probably because he's a friend of Bungie. What's the best way to become a friend of Bungie? Help them out, i.e. be a mod.

At the very least I'm sure the mods are all getting a nod in the credits, and that alone might be worth having to go through and deal with all the -blam!- they have to deal with. I'd hope, though, that they'd get advanced copies of the game two, like say around the end of October.

Hmmm....I should offer to become the coffee -blam!- for extreme minimum wage.

Like 2 bucks an hour.

Five Tenets of Bungie.net Forum Life:
1. Trolls will always be well fed.
2. Blame-ability thy name is stosh.
3. Bungie has no control over retail prices.
4. Watch out for low-flying defense drones.
5. Seven is not optional, but rather, an inevitability.

I got a big t.v. sitting in front of my computer that is ready at a moments notice to be hooked up to my Xbox. It would be easy from here. I can multitask! Modship does sound a little bit hard though. Not because of the lack of Halo 2 goodness, but because there are so many damn morons out there that think its funny to screw around with the mods and spam every chance they get. From now on, June 17th shall forever be known as Mod Appreciation Day.

Although it's true that I came off a potato-boat at Ellis Island, Bungie.net will actually EXPLODE with stuff on November 9th. For Halo 2 related reasons that will change your life. HOW'S THAT FOR A DEFENSE?

Well, I'm not getting on the forums until after I totally understand the story of Halo 2 and have beaten it on Legendary. God I'm in for a lonely haul.

I thought I read in an interview somewhere, when somebody asked what was coming after Halo 2, that the answer was a vacation, and then everyone was going to get together and decide what they wanted to do next. Since I can't find a link to that interview anywhere, I'll assume I just concocted it in my head, apologies.

I blame second-hand opium smoke. I don't know anyone who smokes it, but I sure as hell can blame it.

He looks like one and lives like one but that doesent mean he IS one.
He is. He used to live in a rather rough part of the UK. He was lucky to escape before the deep-fried Mars bar craze (I have no want to try one of these).

Well, the respect of the rest of the forum is good enough. And the free schwag ;-)

That was a joke, right?
