With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

Lets go for a likely example: A certain forum member pisses off another one. One guy gets a grudge against the other, and uses the feature to keep track of what threads he makes just so that he can reply in them and completely trash the subject.... inviting more spam and crap into the forums.
It's somewhat of a good idea, but unnecessary, and I think Bungei might agree to that.
...That's not how a messaging system works. You can't keep track of other people with it. You only get emails when somone replies to a thread you've started....Also the main thing I had to say is you spelt Bungie wrong....kinda disappointing for such a long time member...
Well, then, I only posted what I said based on how I interpreted the original explaination. I apologize for being wrong.
Even so, part of my post still holds a valid point. Why bother doing the programming to make it so that you get emails/pms when you get an arbitrary reply to a thread you made? Just go check the thread. It takes less than a minute to make a few clicks and read through the list of posts to weed yours out of the mix.
And everyone makes mistakes. My eyes just didn't happen to catch that one and I was in a class while I posted it (yes, I can multitask), so I didn't bother to read it twice or run it through a spell-checker. My spelling, for the most part, is pretty good. There are worse users than me.
