Nah, I like being able to associate posts to members, even if I don't see them very often.Why wouldn't you be able to do that?

Take a look at 4chan, Daz.
Trolls would be everywhere. At least it isn't like SomethingAwful where you have to pay.That's not a fair comparison; this is not a method for anonymous posting any more than creating a Bungie.net account currently is anonymous.

I disagree. Most people try to keep gaming out of their social life.Bungie's Facebook page is followed by more than 574,000 people. That's clearly not true at all.

Would there be a way to limit accounts though?
[...]
It would make alt accounts more accessible, no?Frankly, I don't see that as a relevant question, but it doesn't mean that any of those sites make it easy to create an account.

Waaaay too much spammers would come. It would be taken advantage of.It would be better if you explain why.

Hashed out new post:
You're just talking about commenting on information on other sites with our bungie.net account.No, but that's an interesting idea.

Why does it matter?Because it encourages people to stay and use this site to participate rather than another site.

It might bring in people, but whats cool about this community is that its made up of people who are here for bungie.So what does that make the people who follow Bungie's Twitter, Facebook, or YouTube accounts? Not there for Bungie? Not part of the community?

Having anyone being able to post without a bungie account would take away that feeling of being a close-knit community. Personally, I think it's a bad idea to implement this.Shouldn't we be encouraging and welcoming people to participate on this site rather than giving them the feeling that if they join they're going to dismantle the community?

It has potential, but I don't see what is so hard about just making a profile.To create a profile here (presently) you have to essentially create two: A WLID and a Bungie.net account. That is yet another pair of login details that someone has to remember when they could be using one of their existing accounts from another site/provider.

Wait, you want a wave of new users with little accountability for what they post? With access to the Flood? Are you trying to make your job a nightmare?Are you really suggesting that should the Web Team implement this, that posts made by non-Bungie.net accounts could/would not be moderated?
