I've been gone for a good while, and I was wondering if anything has changed in my absence. Any new rules? New moderators? New features? Someone please enlighten me.

Yes! Much has changed! I, Pink Menace, deleted my Net Passport accidently! Several new mods were appointed, as you can see Here. An Anti-Spam filter was added, which allows one post per 50 seconds (I believe) and only like 10 topics a day per person. That's all I can think of, and good to have you back!

Wow. I didn't know about any of that, except for the new mods.

Thanks for the info, and its nice to be back. A spam filter ey? I never thought that they would have the ability to throw in such a feature. When exactly did this happen?

I can't remember. Very recently though. I actually remember Achronos mentioning it in a thread shortly before he implemented it. My guess would be a week to three weeks ago. Ish.

Are you one of the new moderators? I dont remember you. At all. Not even as a regular member.

Indeed I am new. I wasn't around much from March - May, so you probably didn't see me around.

Certainly didn't take too long for me to become a mod. I only started posting around March-ish.

He just appeared out of thin air one day and started posting in the Underground.

Made the Underground a better place, if you ask me.

Well you must either know some people who know some people, or are very smart and active, and know what you are talking about. I myself have never had a chance at being moderator due to the fact that I express my opinions too often and Im too young.

Meh. Being a mod sounds sucky. The only perks are the occasional free stuff and... do hate mail and repettative tasks count as perks?

Well, I remember the days when anyone disrespecting a mod was struck down with brutal force. I would consider that a perk....but perhaps the mod's powers have been decreased???
I wouldn't know, and I'm not going to test it.

Not decreased, but as the fan-base increased and more people came here Bungie had to go more by the worlds standards and less by theirs, which sucks because I liked Bungies standards. I hate to see people putting Bungie down on Bungie's forum, after they play a game that Bungie made.

I can't believe I just read that. If that is the case...then how can this site work effiecently?( I know i didn't spell that right...) With out brutal action then things won't get done with the speed that they need to be! Unless of course Achronos hasn't lost any of his brutality toward -blam!-s and jerk offs, and still acts like the evil despot he should be. I hope Im not offending anyone, but its hard to not do that with such a large group of....people...if thats what you want to call most of them.

that sucks pink, i like ur new account though. The only major thing in my opinion that happened recently were the new mods. Making it a better place.

That or the spam filter, no more spam attacks is a major advancement in my opinion.

Oh yes, how you doing Lord Paul, I'm Butane, nice to meet you.

Achronos may be evil, but he still cares about the little guy (and kittens). Why? Is it just so he can enjoy crushing their souls later or does he just have a soft spot?

Who knows. He's a rather complex dude.
