Subject: We should show the soul more love! (NOW WITH BETTER IMAGE!)

Hello, I'm Mr AwesomePizza. I like pizza and I'm a man. Reasoning for the name. I like to listen to the classics of music, write poetry, play video games, and much much more. I'm always down for a nice chat, so please hit me up for some conversation.

After reading one thread, I realized we never get to find out when an update to the code of conduct/rules/any other important things until we go and check them. So I suggest that the soul sends an automated message when the rules, or any other important thing is updated. Just like when he sends the ban message. But he could link people to the updated versions. I made a image of what it could look like.

It doesn't have to look like that, it's just a quick rough draft I put together. So what do you guys say? Good idea or bad?

Or he can just flat out tell us the change.

I say the Soul makes a thread about it in the community forum. It doesn't ever get the exposure it deserves.

This.

The soul resents love.

But then it would just end up like the rules/code.

Hi! Just a friendly reminder that the rules/code of conduct has been updated! Please take a minute of your time and review them so that you won't get another message from me in the future!

I said rough draft, meaning not permanent.

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

What if there was more change then that though? Would you like him to list all of the changes even if it takes five pages.

Bungie shouldn't be making 5 pages worth of rule changes...

Listing should work fine.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

Why not have him sending us changes of the rules in messages instead?

I'd rather The Soul didn't send us rule updates. When you see the Soul, you should know what to expect and what you're getting. I know Bungie doesn't update the rules all that often, but I'd rather The Soul not be used for so mundane a thing. It would be best to not give users any more reason to ignore the Soul's PMs, as they would if they were ever spammed by him with rule updates. He should stay relegated to PMs for bans and warnings.

Though, something else could be used for such a thing. Like a Superintendent type of account. Were it not for the Super being so related to Halo, and thus no longer Bungie's he'd actually be perfect for this sort of thing. An altered account with different colors and some noticeable differences could work out well.

We need some way to let users know when it's been updated. This is one of many methods.

Why make a new thing when we could just as easily use the Soul? I understand what you're saying that people might start avoiding his messages, but I think users will be able to tell the difference between a ban and a notification. Sure it's a small thing, but I would personally like to be updated on the Rules if they ever get changed instead of having to find out weeks after of an update to them.
