You're being heard. Can't you understand?
Just because you don't get what you want doesn't mean you aren't being heard. You can be heard and get nothing that you're asking for.
They've already expressed to all of us countless times: they have no affiliation with Bungie. They're students or people who have jobs that volunteer their time, their probably sparse and valuable time, to watch over these forums. That's it.
If you want to contact Bungie, contact them directly. There's no better way to influence people and get what you want then going to them directly. Send Bungie a letter, start an online petition, spam their mailboxes, hell, give me a letter and a sign and I'll drop it off at their office down the street and march in a circle for an hour - but don't continue to aggravate the mods. They can do just as much as you can as far as this issue, but little or no more.
Take this problem of communication into your own hands. You're smart people, and when you pool ideas and resources you can get your way around this. If you find that Gearbox Software is the company that needs to be contacted - do the same. Spam spam spam! Email, forums, mailboxes, whatever. Call them up! They'll start to listen if a mob of angry but sensible people from this forum starts to enroach upon them face to face.
You wonder why they lock your threads? Because THEY aren't being heard. Even if they're lying through their teeth, you might as well accept it and take it upon yourselves to contact the Big B. If they're lying or not, they're not budging.
To be fair to both sides, I was browsing and found this. I guess Bungie does have some sort of affiliation with a few of the mods/admins here [?]. Again, I can't say I'm giving out the truth here - I have no idea what the inner workings of B.net are, just like the rest of us...
