Subject: Pointless links! Wha-...? Yes! T3h Pointless! Pointlesssss!

It was a cold day near the southern base in Blood Gulch. Cortana and I were relaxing over a game of Go Fish, WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE 700 BANSHEES CAME FLYING IN!!! I GRABED MY SPARTAN LASER AND LET HELL REIGN DOWN UPON THEM. I HOPPED IN THE NEAREST WARTHOG AND TOLD CORTANA TO GET IN.

Look to the right. Now slowly look up. See the list of the forums? Click "more". What excatly is there so much more of? :P

Now go all the way up. See the word "Forums"? Click it. It leads to the same place as "more". Wierd. Two pointless links, each leading to the same place!

Yep. I can see why the "Forums" link is there. But the "more" one is annoying. Maybe the "more" one will actually be used once they add more forums for Ha---- I mean, the next project.

It looks to me as if the last five forums on the list weren't intentioned to be on that list at first- and then Bungie decided to change their mind and simply forgot to remove the "more".

Did you notice that you get more of a description of the forums? :-P

More words, yes, but not more description. Except for the ones nobody goes to.

I noticed that. But then the "Forums" link is still pointless.

No cuase it has a list of the forums. Maybe "not smart un cool people" won't notice the forums unless they click that link....

I presume it means more information on the forums. The Gallery through to The Flood don't have descriptions underneath them...

The Most Obvious Use for the "X" Button

MALSH

Dude, Pimps at Sea is like Halo, going 30 knots in a harbour, being chased by clippers and Man-o-war. And the Man-o-war are firing.

It's a redundancy. Things as important as Bungie.net need redundancies, just like military vessels, and space-ships. The "more" link is the tertiary-backup. The list of forums to the right is the main, the "Forums" link in the manu bar is the back-up, the Forums link over the list is the secondary back-up, and the "More" is the tertiary.
