Because being a spoiled fat ass always getting what you want is more important than helping the less fortunate...

What a sad world we live in.


Honestly, before you speak you should know the whole story. If not please don't post.


Wow, the irony in this post is amazing. You're still raging that Bungie is to blame for what happened, 'shady business practices', they didn't handle this correctly, blah blah blah. The fact that there are people like you still blaming Bungie for all of this when it's been said multiple times that it was Amazon's issue, and not Bungie's, is flabbergasting. It's like you're ignoring the facts on purpose.

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

Amazon, to a certain extent. They didn't know why the bags were shunted to Gorilla, it happened when they were working on the store front issue. Bungie had no idea, even Gorilla had no idea. At this point they still don't even know how many bags are left.

Do not panic, or you will fail.

So, I guess the people that are the loudest are the most representative?

If by loudest, you mean constantly churning out rage-filled, ill-informed threads, then yes. They're the loudest.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

I hope they don't let one guy determine who this community really is.

The sad thing is, it wasn't one guy. There were loads of threads about the Swag Bags and how terribly the community had been screwed over. This whole forum turned into a place to rant about how terribly it had been handled.

Funny, but when it didn't work out i didn't see a single person mention the money that wasn't going to charity because of the mixup.

Shut the hell up, Halo is my world

"Fans feel ripped off. Members of the Bungie.net forums claim that Bungie promised them bags and that they owe it to their fans to make up for this."

Lol at you if you feel like this. If you are that outraged at not getting a shirt and a couple posters (or whatever is in the bag) that was said to really be "limited edition", you need to reevaluate your life.

The "Honorable Member" they quoted was a twelve year old, obviously. He didn't care about proper punctuation, capitalization, or bother to get the couldn't care less correct. It really isn't difficult to figure out it is couldn't care less. Use your head before you bother speaking your thoughts that are stupid to begin with. Idiot.

I bet he regret having his name featured for such a shameful comment.

Everyone should be thanking Bungie for even doing this, they don't have to do anything.

Bungie Day '11 Community Mosaic Thread

Posted by: Malloy05
everybody listen to mac2po he is 100% right

Posted this in the other topic, might as well in here as well.

The entire situation was messed up. I remember seeing a lot of tweets replying to Bungie complaining about the Bags. It was an accident, and one shouldn't change how you think of Bungie. Would you get this mad at the Government every time you lost the lottery? Quite childish when you think about it.

This is just an example

What about the Millions of fans that didn't "turn on bungie" or the thousands of fans like myself who simply didn't give a -blam!- about swag bags?

This

the whole process could have been handled better.
No comment. I didn't care to follow up on it and I have no idea whats going on. But that's okay.

Also it dawns on me there's already a thread on this stuff

OH!

  • 07.01.2011 7:50 AM PDT

They had this news article because I was unaware?

This community is forever brain damaged. I've cooled off from yesterday, but I was pretty pissed.

We weren't promised bags, but it was implied that everyone would get a fair shot at it, but it was done with shady weird business tactics. I hope most people know that I wouldn't be mad if I had a fair shot to get one, it would have been like losing a contest. And Yes I know it was for charity, and I respect that 100 percent, but we still wanted something commemorative, Halo has been in my life for 10 years...

I hope they post something on the website, not just another tweet.
I think that's a fairly big claim to make. Can you elaborate more on these "shady weird business tactics" that you've witnessed, please?

I don't even know what we're talking about, but THIS interests me. Like he said, please elaborate.

Who is this guy and what did he do? Did I miss something because I was here when the rants were beginning to come up.

The beta is super awesome. RogueAssassin27 is now the person who got my Totodile's nickname. Hoo-hah! Relevant.inb4lock

I find it funny how the unnecessarily mention Pokenerd is Honorable.

Also, I think WAAAAAAAAAYY too many people are over-reacting about this "o noo, teh matuur community of bungeh r actually butthurt!" I mean, so we had some people go rage, big deal, get over it. It's over now, no needto make a freaking article and other threads about it.

Can we end this silly "rep" thing?

Wakka Wakka Wump!
No I freaking told you to cut the hose off, if i told to pull it off then i would have said pull it off. Now you broke the AC you dumb ass.

People actually give a toss about rank?

OT: In every community a small minority will cause havoc, and that draws the attention.
