I'm sure some of you remember that the Bungie Community used to be called The Septagon (and still call it as such). And The Flood has...well....Never changed.....anyway....

The names of both of these forums haven't changed in quite some time....Maybe its Time for a change of identity? You decide!

Well I was thinking, maybe we should take a vote? See from a members point of view if the names need an overhaul. You know, get the ball rolling and help out the guy's up stairs so they don't have to work so hard.

Not asking specifically what yet, just, if we should.

<<INCOMING OPINION>>
The Community is going to be a hard one. I personally vote for a change (to the screw but the name isn't important right now).

And I do believe The Flood should be changed (to something like the underground for nostalgia purposes, but again not important right now) seeing as The Flood is specifically related to Halo.
<<OPINION ENDED>>


So Community (or should I call you screw) what is your opinion? When everything gets an IV feed of caffine, do you think these two forums should be changed?

If so, by all means post a name if you have one, after a few days I'll create another thread with the most popular names.

If not, go ahead and explain, you may just change everyones mind with your insightful point of few.


Well? what are you waiting for....HAVE AT IT!

On December 1st, 2012, I met Neil deGrasse Tyson. I shook the man's hand, and even made him laugh. Not much else to do with my life now.

The Flood are a specific form of "zombie" if you will only found in The Halo Games, seeing as bungie is moving on with that title and that stage of life, my opinion is that a forum titled something no one will get in a few years (new members won't at least) would seem silly....to me at least.

  • 02.04.2012 5:31 PM PDT

Nooo! You cannot change the Flood name! Something tells me you haven't gone there too often, my friend. People have grown ridiculously fond of the term "Flood." You have no idea how much the term is used.

"Discuss, Flood"
"Fellow Floodians"
"Flood Was Here"

It is too awesome to change, ever. I would be very sad if it changed. Anyway the Community forum could use a name change (it does seem a bit old fashioned) The Septagon is a simple yet elegant title. A banner change would be nice too.

  • 02.04.2012 5:32 PM PDT

<3 THE SALTY CHIP

If Bungie changes the name of The Flood, there will be an outcry from the Floodians.

This would be great.

I could see "the flood" renamed when the new IP rolls in.

change is bad, unless you get some at the supermarket when you pay for penny candy with a $20...do they still make penny candy, does it still cost a penny? if it costs five cents now do they call it nickle candy?

sorry about my rambling, I'm Canadian we're all kinda loonie...unless we're twins, then we're toonie..

what was the question again?

oh yeah, change bad...unless they want to make this forum "The Septagon" again..then I'm all for it!

This man knows what he is talking about.

And yes, I do frequent The Flood quite often, and I guess changing that title WOULD seem a little traitorous.....

But see, thats why I created this thread, with such sentiment towards the name, a thread liek this could prevent a name changed already planned.

I like this idea. Don't change The Flood to the Underground, that's the Universe's name.

  • 02.04.2012 5:37 PM PDT

A change on both names would be best.

  • 02.04.2012 5:40 PM PDT

Key

Change "The Community Forum" to "The 'Gon".

It's hip. It'll attract all the kiddos.

I flip a table every time I see someone support changing the Flood name. Anger!

Im still confused about "The Screw" name, it doesn't make sense...

  • 02.04.2012 5:56 PM PDT

I like shorts. They're comfy and easy to wear.

I don't see why we should change the Flood's name.

  • 02.04.2012 5:56 PM PDT

CHANGE EVERYTHING

Actually everything seems like it will be right except for the flood forum.

Flood should be changed to I have no idea what to make it more hip.

  • 02.04.2012 6:07 PM PDT

Real life? What is that?
Graphics are good, gameplay sucks. Overhyped IMO.

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.

Don't change either. Update the banners though, they look all... oldish. Like Recon!
