i reckon its because we know too much
I "reckon" that it's because you know too little.
Let me expand on that. I think that people are making guesses, then assuming that these guesses are true, then using these guesses as the foundations for other guesses. And so on. So the result is going to be, shall we say, "unreliable".
If Bungie wants to stomp really, really hard on runaway rumour-mongering, that's fine by me. I was here for some completely out-of-control rumours (to name four: Halo 1.5/2.5, premium charges for clans on XBL, Single Player Demo Release, Friends List reset) and the forums get very messy with all the shreiking and ranting that comes from the rumours AND from their demolition when the final product actually comes out. (Because, y'know, it's not like these rocket scientists guessed wrong... it's that Bungie "lied" to them.)
So keep on locking 'em when they start to get out of control, mods. I, for one, am tired of hearing the lemmings rile themselves up for another charge over the cliff.
-- Steve wouldn't mind it so much if the lemmings just jumped on their own, without all the shouting.
