This Week in Review: a mini-preview.

It has been a long time since Chapter Founders has been in the glorious spotlight of Bungie-ism. With the ‘New Hawtness’ Chapter Founders was pushed aside for more mainstream forums and a new system of ‘groups’ which quickly killed the prestige of Chapter Founders. After a little discussion it has been decided that we should revive the chapter, yes, I said Chapter… none of this group nonsense. Ok, back on track… We’re looking to revive Chapter Founders by bringing back some of the ideas that made it once great and we’re starting right now with the classic Week in Review that was started by Stosh so long ago. As we progress and get things back online we will bring you more information. As for this Week’s Review, we are going to discuss a few things that we plan on doing and are looking for feedback from you guys, the Founders!

Visible Change.

Soon enough members of Chapter Founders can expect a visible change in the way it’s run. We’re planning on cleaning up the forum and are encouraging in-depth discussion on pressing issues that Founders are concerned about. We also plan to use the ’54-style’ forum, but we’ll have more on this later.

The forums will not be the only stop we plan on taking. The ‘Awesome Chapter’ database/resource will be given a kick in the pants as we search for new, active and interesting chapters that are the pinnacle of awesomeness. If we choose your chapter it will be put in the Week in Review along with a little article as to why we think it is awesome. Not only will the Week in Review be posted at Chapter Founders but it will also be posted and stickied in the Septagon for everyone to see, think of it as a free Chapter add in the Septagon on us!

The Chapter Founders monthly poll will be making a come back as well. Each month we’ll take suggestions on issues that are pressing you or just general opinion polls. If you have a question or suggestion about the polls you can send our very own Master of Polls Halo53 a very vulgar and mean message about what you want. And remember, it helps to cry and whine like a five year old.

54-style

Yes, Recon may well be old but all jokes aside he has hinted upon a good idea. Recently Moderator Recon Number 54 has taken it upon himself to beta test a new way of keeping forums organized. Using the Flood forum Recon has set up a master sticky which the Forum Ninjas can update with threads they feel are worthy of mention. The Moderators are currently seeking feedback from the members of the Flood as this might become the widely adopted form of pinning threads in the forums. If you wish to discuss this matter or leave your feedback please visit this thread.

So far we’ve just skimmed on the changes we intend to make, but we’re welcome to any suggestions that you may have. If you have any ideas or would like to contribute in some manner to the Week in Review feel free to send an email to [email]cfounders@gmail.com[/email]. Some say this is Sunday, true… but this is just a start, we’ll be giving it up to two weeks to post the next Week in Review and then we’ll start on a regular schedule posting the Review on Fridays or Saturdays, which ever day we can get it out. So to everyone reading out there, keep on Founding those Chapters and we look forward to hearing from you!

This article brought to you by Chapter Founders , the original hawt spot for help with Chapters and all things concerning them. Come visit us for the most in-depth help you can find anywhere on the 7th Column.

You're going to meet the wrong end of the banhammer.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

hey Yoozel, does this mean the Council will start up again?

Its somone elses turn to be in the chapter/group spot light. Marty Army has been hogging it for months.

I really don't know about the Council, that's up to Bungie. As for the spotlight, I'm going to try and find someone I can hound to change it.

Thats cool cuz alot of new chapters/groups have become pretty good so it would be good for a change.

Marty is cool...but your right. He is a little selfish.

Yo Halo53, I'm real happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best bungie.net profiles of all time. OF ALL TIME!

The reason crying and whining like a 5 year old when messaging me helps is because it reminds me of all of the time I have spent chatting with Yoozel.

:-D

Yeah! Chapter Spotlight.

Discipline is my Sword,
Faith is my Shield,
Do not leap blindly into uncertainty,
And you may live to reap the rewards.

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

A toast to The 7th Column and Chapter Founders revival!
Very cool Yoozel, I hope all this works out.

Maybe newer members can start to get a taste of the old B.net...

I like this. Along with the 54-style. I think that would be good for the popular forums. The forums look cleaner this way and more post are up per-page.
