I <3 you too Bungie

I really liked the Meet the Team page way back when it was relatively up-to-date. I am suspicious that it may be dead though. It hasn't been updated in forever, and if I'm correct, I think it may not even be linked into the site anymore (though you can still navigate to it directly). I'm assuming this has a lot to do with privacy issues; fans attacking employees in public. Maybe it's also just gotten too big to handle? Just wondering if this is an intentional distancing, or if it's just gotten laid aside, or ________?

First I've heard of such an issue. But I do remember someone saying that participation was optional, so if you didn't want your info shown you didn't have to have it up there at all.

We're want to bring it back in one form or another. DeeJ is on it. It might be a while before there's a formal landing for team members, but we should have some interviews for you soon.

Great to hear that, thanks Urk.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

You mean like "Average Joes" interviews for Bungie employees?

It's not dead. But it's not completely up to date either.
There are a lot more employees at Bungie than what is shown on that page. Many employees simply haven't bothered to add their profile on that page.

It will probably get an update sometime in the future. Last time it was updated, it was when Marcus Lehto left. He's back but his profile isn't back up yet.

Meet the Team
Thanks!

So if they do continue this "Meet the Team" thing, we can expect more interveiws/profiles of employees?

My Best Bungie moment: finally beating all the Halo games on solo legendary.
My Worst Bungie moment: not seeing giant stuffie grunts in the Bungie store.

They all must be too busy creating awesomeness. We shall have to just wait awhile.

Great! Thanks Urk.

That's great to hear. Someone somewhere said something about Bungie being around 250+ employees, and even Achronos was saying in his interview with Deej that he doesn't recognize faces anymore. Maybe this could be fun for everyone involved, even if it's non-photographic, but gives an insight to different people and their roles/interests/etc.

I don't know why...but I just pictured in my head a collage of the Bungie logo made entirely out of pictures of employees.

It is possible to commit no errors and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life.

Cheeto is the only one among you that doesn't suck.

I forgot it even existed... I used to think that it was cool. But if it's too be brought back, it'd be nice if each member had their own picture, rather than most of them using one of three or four images.

Ah, someone leaked. Now to find the leak and.... plug it.
With justice.

I use coup 5
Never Played halo 1 = Invalid opinion
Bloom isn't whats broken, its your idea of what good is and your opinion
Thats like saying uber nerf armor lock because like 20 percent of the community hates it. Oh wait..................

Its not dead, Its sleeping like the rest. From what i understand Achronos has some sauce set to launch at the end of black out. Im sure there will bee team related hawtness

Was there ever a formal introduction page,


I always though about making an archive of older members and thier bios. I think we need a meet the team as much as a meet the community. Once im in collage for web design I might even by a domain and get on it. I think it would be awesome.

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!"

Glad to see that Bungie's looking to update and fix the little things. They will be a nice update to get Bungie.net back to the higher standards.

Yes, there're too many numbers in my name.

Not "Average Joes", just simply "Joes". Or perhaps "Josephs".

What about the "Ask your Ninjas" interviews? I loved reading both.

Join the Bungie Kids Podcast Group!

Listen to our podcast and listen to us talk about the latest Bungie news and Halo: Reach updates!

When I grow up, I want to be just like goofenhour.

Yeah, I pretty much agree with everything in the OP. It's just this time around, can we update everyone's bio? I mean, Jason Jones has had a "Coming Soon" in his bio for as long as I have been on the site. Also, can we change the people to be in the correct group? That seems not to have been updated in a while either.

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

Yes. I killed it.
