"I'm uncomfortable."

So I thought about something when I asked some friends on XBL the other day. I had asked if any of them were B.net users and they all had said no which made me very [sadface]. So here's what this made me think: What if B.net were like Facebook and the other social networking sites?

By being like all those other sites, I mean what if everybody used B.net all the time and everybody and their mom knew about it? Do you think it would change B.net completely?

Have you seen my mind anywhere? I seem to have lost it...

I have seen you future

I think it would completely change the site. Here people generally know each other, and if it was as popular as you imagine then there would be millions of people posting here, making this a very active, but impersonal site.

Yes, i'm guessing if we changed the site completely it would change comepletely.

People here kinda freak when you mention Facebook + Bnet.

That said, I would like a small amount of things that are more Facebook-like here. Things like more networking to friends, but I still want it to be connected to the gaming part of the site (i.e. your XBL friends.) A friends list for members would be nice, too. It's a minor pain to have to look a user up or go looking for their post just to PM them.

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

a rascal cat, zoob, and chorrizo would be my first two friends on my list :) and a couple others I like. 99% I would ignore though

I rate that it would be awesome. It doesn't need to be like facebook though. I think it would be amazing if there was a chat button and you could post and chat on the same page to your friends. It would be the first gaming website I know of to do that.

I'm definitely fine with Bnet being filled with people who actually like Bungie. Not everyone and their brother.

well this is a game dev site not a social networking power house such as facebook... why would any one come here at this time(new people)?

I come to this site because everyone here is similar. Last thing I would want was for this to become a social networking site (and in the first place: it's a game developer's website, not a networking site).

This is not a social network.
Sociality stays with Bungie's Facebook page.

I feel like this is exactly what I was going to type lol.

OP, are you asking if people would like if said change happened? If thats the case, hell no. The community will get huge enough when the new IP is revealed.

Don't want this place(the mains) to feel completely impersonal.

Ich bin Reptar!

The only change I want to Bunie.net that's like Facebook is notifications. I would like to easily know if someone replied to my post or if someone quoted me. It would be very helpful.

Sometimes I wonder how Bungie.net could have even survived before Facebook existed.

I fail to see how Facebook assists the forums.
