I see a strong correlation between this guy making account, and the apparent downfall of bungie.net. I suggest that OP gets permabanned in order to rectify the situation.

This website was MUCH better back in 2005-2006 (probably before Achronos got married). The design screamed "fun", everything was easy to find, there weren't nearly as many mods (and they weren't nearly as stuck-up jerks either), etc. Anyone from that time knows what I'm talking about. Achronos has ruined this website with its over-abundance of mods and his awful CSS design.

I haven't been here since '05-'06, but I think that he does ok... Ok...

...his awful CSS design.
Lol. This site is easy to use and not as cluttered and confusing like most other site I've looked at. I prefer this site as compared to many others because of its quick and easy design.

If you can come up with a better design, I'm sure we'd all love to see it.

If you're reading this, you need to stop stalking me. If you can't stop stalking me, you might as well go here.

I don't understand how people are disagreeing with the OP, let alone assume they're trolling.

It's common knowledge that this site has been in decline since 2006. Hell, it's in shambles now. It's a mere shadow of itself when it was in its former glory.

Achronos is to blame, entirely.

This is his only job at Bungie, and he's letting it slip from his control. His selection of moderators is sub par, especially in quantity. To effectively moderate these forums, I'd place the number of active moderators needed somewhere around 35-40.

I think these moderators should be chosen from very reliable sources: mythic members, regular posters in the Septagon, those with high post counts, etc. The only effective way to combat the serious issues on this site, aside from what I've already suggested in this thread, is more moderators.

I sympathize for the OP. He sees the current predicament this community is in as being hopeless. For his sake, FOR ALL OUR SAKES, maybe Achronos and the powers that be will take my helpful suggestions into consideration and turn the tide of this unwanted, unfortunate trend.

OP, you're a genius. Well done. 10/10

I disagree with what you are saying. As far as design goes, the site is more organized than it has ever been. Besides, the new hawtness is coming soon, so that might change your mind.
I indeedically agree to your statement.

Ask any question. I'll help with anything on site or off.

Why was this so funny to read. I mean I can agree to a point, but.... I just want'ed knew designs not or everything to start over.

The world is full of mysteries, and shares too few of the answers required. An example of which, is how did I end up in the Brute Zone?

--There are way too many mods, and most of them are just plain jerks.
So we should review some mods?

--This website is TOO BLOATED -- there is stuff everywhere and I can never find what I want to find.
I like it.

--All the good names for the groups are taken.
So you want a group name which is taken, so we should remove those ones?

--All the people who have been here since at least 2006 think they are better than everyone else.
Well, they know more of what is going on, but that doesn't mean they are better. Neither does it mean that the site should be restarted.

Please, let's just start over.
No.

I think the mods are nice. But that's probably because I haven't been banned.

“Strange,” mused the Director, as they turned away, “strange to think that even in Our Ford’s day most games were played without more apparatus than a ball or two and a few sticks and perhaps a bit of netting. imagine the folly of allowing people to play elaborate games which do nothing whatever to increase consumption.”

You're being a bit conservative. You'd want closer to 50 or 60, I reckon. That way you can reasonably hope for 5-10 on at any one time.

Well, then you've got to think about too many Mods vs. too little moderation at any given time. For the most part, I don't really see a problem with there being a lot of Mods. More moderation at any time is good.

No one is pointing a gun at your head to make you stay here. If you don't like it here, leave. That might seem harsh, but it's the truth. No one is forcing you to log in here.

This website has been spiralling downward since 2006 and at this point it seems that the only recovery is to start over.

Not entirely. Choosing to remain somewhere that you don't like is your own fault. More the fool if you stay to complain. If things have been "terrible" for over 5 years, you'd think you'd get the picture by now that your complaints are falling on deaf ears. Either that, or they're invalid. Depends which you deem more logical.

My biggest amusement is the use of "we" in the subject title. As if the community at large has had a hand in getting to this point beyond sitting at their computers and complaining at every minor change since their personal arrival.
