Subject: Why did Bungie change the Septagon to "community"?

Ready are you? What know you of ready? For eight hundred years have I trained Jedi. My own council will I keep on who is to be trained. A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind. This one a long time have I watched. All his life has he looked away... to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was. Hmm? What he was doing. Hmph. Adventure. Heh. Excitement. Heh. A Jedi craves not these things. You are reckless.” -Yoda

Subject says it all...


I dunno, I prefer Septagon better.

The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.

The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.

As you waste your breath complaining about life, Someone out there is breathing their last. Appreciate what you have.

If you stand for nothing, you will fall for anything.

I was just going to quote the other guy that quoted but i decided not too. I thought i'd just post my thought process instead.

Best of random chance

I was going to quote it and say it was overrated.

I spend too much time here.. too much time indeed.

I tweet?

Because "The Screw" was too cool when it was time for a name change.

To Make Posts is Glorious

Some threads will get posts before others and it is the duty of the Leadership to ensure that posts are made that best suit the public welfare.

I dunno, seems pretty obvious, if not redundant.

Just an Average Joe...

I'm still waiting for the day that it changes to "The Screw".

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

I think that change happened just before Halo 3 was released. Bungiepedia says March 20 2007.

Most of the old "Bungiefied" board names were changed, probably for the reason burrito suggested. The Underground remained til 2009, when it became The Bungie Universe Forum. The Septagon became The Community Forum. New Mombassa became the Halo 2 Forum. The Maw became the Halo PC Forum. The Library became the Halo CE forum. Etc.

I understand the desire for clarification, but I preferred the Bungiefied versions of the boards. It gave them more character.

Sure, it's a cooler name. But this name has more functionality I suppose.

  • 12.28.2011 11:03 PM PDT

The Septagon sounds cooler. The old banner was cooler, too.
