He still works at Bungie - "UI/Graphic Designer at Bungie."

He's been on their team for a long time. I think employees can opt-in/opt-out of the golden text, but note that he still retains the title of Bungie Employee.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

You do realize that not every single Bungie employee posts on these forums right? Some are probably regular users lurking among us...

I'd assume he would rather not have the mass quote attack and topic explosion when he posts.

Also, I broke the mythic chain...

Didn't stosh ban him? That might be why he lost his gold text.

No idea. Apparently Sketch doesn't have gold text either.

I thought he did.

I wouldn't it attracts too much attention and usually throws a post off-topic due to the surge of people who look for the gold.

I believe that he may have coup. Just like Recon#54 who made it look like he was just a regular member.

Bungie employees who have gold text on this site are basically "official" responses to various, and most of them are a part of the web team or deals with matchmaking.

Other employees, such as AGTinman, do not give official answers, thus they do not have gold text.

Look buzy.

Ok seriously, they're members of the community that have been asked to moderate the forums, so they're basically us but with more powa.

I remember Achronos saying all employees used to have Gold text, but that was changed to those who usually deal with the community (and webteam).

Yeah, not all Bungie employees deal with the public. A few have posted in the past without the gold text. If I were working there at Bungie, it really wouldn't matter. After all, I'd be working for Bungie.

Also, after long hours of crunching code all day, the last thing I'd want to do is post.

We aren't here to ruin your experience (Well Qbix is).

Well, it might be, but I doubt the Bungie employees would mess around with coup.


Also, what did happen to Shishka?

Here's his profile

He has the Bungie Employee nameplate, he has a custom avatar, and he has haunted helmet in Reach.

He has all of this because he is a Bungie Employee, but why no gold text?
Bungie employees are not required to have gold text and a custom title unless they are posting on the forums for the company. As Duardo mentioned above, gold text posts are considered official Bungie responses.

AGD has some really good original artwork. Check his homepage.

On topic though, employees can choose whether or not they want gold text.

Many employees are not aloud to say official things. So some of them do have the signature "Bungie employees" and others don't, same as gold text.

Achronos said once, that the only people for now that are aloud to say things are the Gold text employees which regularly posts.

I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.

Gold text= admin tools (for the vast majority of the time). Marty, Robt, Lorraine, and Andrew (and I'm sure more) don't have gold text.

I wonder how many people are wondering what you're talking about.
Ummm.... No point in contributing this has been answered like 10 times, I'd just be repeating.
