Gray socks are best socks. White is second, black third. Every other sock color is simply horrible.

A user figured out how to do it not too long ago, and all hell broke loose.

Just post your images to the Battlefield forums and then link to the posts here!

(You definitely shouldn't do this.)


9/19/2011 16:49 PM: Recon Number 54 [8705967] issued a permanent ban.
Reason: A Bungie.net Forum Moderator has banned you for violating the code of conduct and/or rules of the forum in the thread below

Do NOT use the Bungie.Net forums to encourage, advocate, suggest, or support an attack on another Internet site. Bungie does not need (or want) "fans" who think that this is a good use of their forums.



Oh wait, it's you Urk. Nevermind.... I guess. Though you wouldn't be the first employee I've banned.


To be a fly on the HFCS wall right now...

Foman! What's going on in there?!

You know the Jon Cena link?

How would you like to see it's content spammed in a form you can't avoid?

  • 09.19.2011 5:10 PM PDT

whoever is sending those strangely familiar messages... you know... "i was searching the site when i found your profile..." THOSE. Cut it out.

um... no, visit the flood forum to see why.

Proof? Or at least provide a link to something pertaining to this.

I think he was permabanned. You wouldn't find anything even if a link was provided.

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.

This is a discussion forum, not an imageboard. Here, we try to say what we want to say with words.

I'm not too worried about abuse. But it's already bad enough with people responding to posts with links to YouTube videos and images, as if that constitutes any kind of response at all. I don't even click on links like that anymore.

And if people could embed images on this site, every single thread would consist of an OP followed by 25 embedded meme images, each person trying to post something funnier than the last. And that's a fact.

There doesn't need to be more than what was said in this post.

Anyway. No, LOL. Remember when people found out how to embed pictures for the first time?

You have the power to ban employees? :o

On topic. I still think it's a bad idea..

No, I do not want to join your clan/group.

Given the general maturity of most users on Bnet, most noticeably the Flood, allowing them to embed images in their posts would result in a "wangpocalypse." I'd really prefer not to see that.

Key

Saying "oh, we'll just ban people who post pronz" is illogical at the least. Why don't we get rid of the profanity filter? We can just ban people who swear, right? Well, the point is that people never have to see that. Bungie doesn't want swearing on their forums, so it's censored. Bungie doesn't want inappropriate pics on their forums, so members can't use them. Simple as that.

Why do I need to "embed" when I can just post a link?

All proof was wiped when Bungie removed how to do it. It was June 13th, 2010, if my memory serves correctly.

Case and point: don't worry about it. Girls start getting boobies pretty soon, and then you'll have plenty of other things to think about. Being an Inheritor is not a life goal.

I don't think he was permabanned. Lemme check... Nope.

Plus the method was fixed. Thank goodness.

I'll be on my own side.

There are times when I'd rather post an image than words, but then I think of all the posts we'd have to moderate that consist of images only. lolno

  • 09.19.2011 9:42 PM PDT

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.

I know who you are.

You are Destiny.

Considering how much traffic these forums garner in a single day, the Webteam would have to be idiots to allow everybody access to include images with their posts.

Not in a million years.

I seriously don't think they'd do that.

Stop banning me please.

Achronos: And what's this about a "design team" I've been hearing? Apparently stosh is so awesome he's now considered a "team".

People can not be trusted, especially whilst online. I remember this one time when someone hacked Coup and did some inappropriate stuff it was not nice to see on here.

When he was younger, he was the one who always had the jokes and riddles that would keep the spirits of the Spartans high. Over the years however, his lifetime of combat had hardened him, as it had all of the Spartans. Within Will, John thought, something special had been lost.

No...

even for "trusted" members. We're all on the same level here.

The only people I could see being allowed to use this feature would be the mods. You could even go as far as to say let them have some html privileges. I could see the pinned topics and FAQ threads benefiting from being allowed to work outside the box that is the the general format on these forums. Threads with the polish sort of polish seen in the old BWU.
