One does not choose a destiny, his destiny is bestowed, shaped and formed, from the soul.

Today I've gone through every forum and this and the flood are the only forums that get traffic, why?

For example almost every post on the classifieds has from 0 to 5 replies
Every other forum is dead.

I don't know. I've never seen so many threads made in one day on this forum as there were made today, so this forum is exceptionally active today.

Trying something once will increace your chances of success, because you tried it. Try someting twice, and your chances increase yet again - seeing as you've done it. Try something a few thousand times, and your chances of success is exponentially increased; this increase would likely provide success every time

Since Halo's mainly been moved over to the Waypoint forums, and not many people indulge themselves in Bungie's past, the two forums are the only real satisfying alternative till something new breaks wind.

That's my opinion on the matter anyway.

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

Classifieds has never really been a lively place. Bungie doesn't run Halo anymore, so that explains all those. The Universe still has some activity, but it comes and goes.

The Septagon/Community forum is the only Bungie related forum that can actually generate new content, though at a slower rate than some of the other forums in their prime. The Flood is...well, it's just the Flood.

The gallery is dead to, it's like 2 posts every week

Umm, the Halo 2 fourm are active.

  • 01.18.2012 4:30 PM PDT

Yes, I AM just that awesome.

Maybe everyone is on other websites, there are more forums than Bungie's forums.

  • 01.18.2012 4:31 PM PDT

Most of the forums here on BNet deal with their past, such as the Halo 1, 2, 3, etc. forums. If you haven't noticed, a lot of the people here don't talk too much about Halo in general anymore... That's all being done at the Waypoint forums and such.

Other Bungie forums such as the Classifieds and the Gallery never really received much attention. I remember the good ole' days of the Underground forum though. Good times...

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

Can't wait for the Destiny days ;)

Be careful, what you speak is heresy.

This forum isn't the most active and I do visit all the forums.

I visit all the forums at least once a month. This one is not the most active. I currently see the flood as the most active, the reach forum as the second most active, the universe forum as the third most active, and the community as the fourth

  • 01.18.2012 5:28 PM PDT

We miss you Logan.
Ask any question. I'll help with anything on site or off.

I got to all the Bungie forums. I still go to the game forums, but there isn't any good topics there.

My Screenshots / My Group / Remember to follow the rules or you will get trapped in a box.

It's probaly because the game forums are harder to access now.

If I am not posting, then I am reading what you might have posted.

A lot of the stuff in the classifieds is for clans, and not a whole lot of people are in to that thing as much anymore.

I go here, I go there. As long as the place has some relevance to me or to anything that I find of interest.

:D

This Forum is right, smack-dab in the middle of the Forum drop-down list and a lot of people like to come here. I don't mind that it's pretty active here, but The Flood is a whole different story.

[*Please note that anything in my posts is likely to be filled with sarcasm, and should be taken with a pinch of salt. I tend to help people, usually*]

I visit the Universe Forum frequently...but quite a lot of the people who tend to post in there have no respect for other perspectives. And it's all about Halo. And they never tend to properly cite their sources when they blab on about their self-confirmed theories that are completely retarded. Also, versus threads.

I do however, look forward to when Bungie feeds out more information on Destiny. Maybe then we'll see some good discussion.

  • 01.18.2012 5:41 PM PDT

Who the hell do you think I am?

These are the only two forums I've ever really cared for, and private groups. I've actually stopped going on the flood, it's all the same stuff over and over again. I even used to enjoy the trolling, but it got old and not fun really fast. Now for the mains, I mostly just stick here.

I have always noticed that certain days of the week are much more active than others.

The classifieds isn't about recruiting people to groups, it was made so that people can post ads there.

Think of it as a trash can more than a classifieds section. Mostly just a place to put unwanted topics/spam recruitments, but occasionally you'll find a dumpster diver actually looking for something.

Also, there is no Bungie game to talk about, so what other forums besides the Off Topic and Community Forum would have good traffic?

This is sort of like the kitchen. Everyone always gathers in the kitchen and talks about whatever. It's a natural thing. It's where we gather.

I foresee a change coming. When? That's up to Bungie. There will be a change of some kind. Whether it be an additional forum to talk about what the next game is or a complete makeover of this site.

Then there will be more traffic of course.

I've only been in 3 forums.
- Bungie Community
- Halo: Reach
- The Flood

And you will never see me in the Flood again. Ever.
