Alright, I've always read the forums and I've interacted in them, and I know about groups/chapters and Halo and Bungie. I'm just wondering, is the Septagon or the Seventh Column anything different than just the community of the Bungie.net members? Is it some sort of group and am I just unaware of its significance?

I usually hang out in Zanzibar and once in a while New Mombasa. I clicked on The Septagon for the first time tonight, and I'm confused as to what it's all about. It's heading is "7th Column and Community." Who makes up the 7th Column and Community exactly? Am I a member?

OK, I think that's enough questions. You know what I'm trying to say. Please, don't batter me for not knowing the deal here. I'm just an avid gamer and poster, and I want to know what this forum is for.

I think being a meber of bungie.net and joining a fan group makes you a member of the 7th column, but I could be wrong.

See, that's what I thought, but I don't want to assume anything.

You know what assuming does. It makes an ass out of...ok, you get it.

Thanks for being sincere. I was expecting to get called stupid or a n00b. You know the deal. I hate those people.

Anyway, if anyone knows for sure, please just post a response and let me know what the deal is.

can there be a sticky posted somewhere with a well defined explanation of what the 7th column is? Because the Septagon gets this question once a day. Nothing against you but the question does arise quite often. By the way, The first rule of the 7th column is you don't talk about the 7th column!

Ha, I figured that this question was asked often, that's why I was afraid of the response. See, I don't know any rules about the 7th Column. In fact, I checked everywhere I thought appropriate and didn't see any rules.

Which, you might just be making that up. Going for a Fight Club thing or something.

Do you know what it is though Blingman? You seem to know. PM me or something. Or my AIM is rudeboyska080204.

Apparently, that and references to Ike and Tina Turner are a big part of his Blinguage plan. This question gets asked so often, I should copy and paste the answers into a text document so it can easily be pasted into a post without effort. ;)
