I was looking at the Ideal Science Store. I saw how much there forums actually cost and it is very shocking. Ideal BB.NET Unlimited is $24,999. I assume bungie.net runs unlimited due to our high volume and development features. All I know is that after seeing that price for forums and the price it cost to maintian them, all those complainers can "Shut the heck up"! Seriously...
Ok, I'm sick of this type of stuff.
anti, take away $24,999 from $300,000,000 (6million copies of the game sold at $50 a shot. Although it's cheaper now in the states, we still pay full-whack for a copy over here so it evens out). Not a lot really is it? Don't forget Bungie is a business at the end of the day. Of course they're going to be nice to you, give you nice forums to go on, because at the end of the day we're paying their wages. The business model is not all that different to that of one 'Bunny Ranch' out in Nevada (I think it's Nevada, not too sure though being across the pond and all).
Not having a go at you, just remember that $25,000 to bungie is literally the equivelant of about a dollar (55p) to us. Nice of them yes, but they're going to make a shed-load of cash come 'the next project' what with the increased sales of 360's to boot.
