I also maintain that Chrome is weaksauce, and IE9 is fast and works very well

What do you need to discuss about render minutes?

Usually the Ninjas will allow you to create a thread in the Halo 3/Halo 3: ODST/Halo: Reach Forum if you are being generous by rendering other people's videos. If you create a thread asking for someone to render a video for you however, it will be locked.

It is true, but only if you are a Bungie Pro subscriber. If you are not, then you can never become one now.

I have seen a lot of render-minute based threads in the classifieds. The idea is probably that you are soliciting another one's service, so it's similar to recruiting in that manner, though if you need discussion, I seldom post in the classifieds for that matter.

As for the proper place to post such a thread, the Flood is probably your best bet, and I am sorry to say that. I reviewed the forum descriptions just now to verify that it was the classifieds, which still seems the best place, but it isn't specific to render minutes. Thus, the Flood seems the most logical alternative, as it is the off-topic forum here on Bungie.net, and your thread wouldn't seem to be "on-topic" anywhere else.

The only other thing that I can think of is the Halo 3, ODST, and Reach forums, as they are for content "directly related" to their titles. It is sketchy though because as you know, render minutes are not directly related explicitly to either title. At any rate I will get back to you once I find a more permanent solution to your problem.

That's a good question that I don't know the answer to. You should have been able to create a thread in the Community Forum in my opinion, because render minutes are related to the Bungie.net website.

I doubt that people who had a Bungie Pro subscription that expired before September 15 (or never had Bungie Pro) will receive five free render minutes each month - I know I don't have any. For people who do have a Bungie Pro subscription that expires after September 15, perhaps they will receive their five free render minutes up until their subscription would normally expire. Bungie would be nice if they continued to provide the five free render minutes each month after that.

Remember that I do not actually know the answer to the question, that is just how I think it might work. This is a question that can only be answered correctly by a Bungie Employee.

That said, there might be members with experience who can answer the question correctly :)
