No, I'm not perfect, but I have the feeling you're the kind of person who is used to meeting imperfect people on the internet.
Knowing that the nameplate option was going offline, I left my nameplate as the Spartan Helmet.
It was my favorite, I didn't mind going forward with it for eternity.
This morning I log in though, and my now frozen service record says I'm using the "Bungie" nameplate.
I don't think I've EVER used that one. What gives? How did THAT happen?
