Subject: Excited for the flux of new members?

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

As we all know [or at least should], Bungie has moved on from the singular platformed development to the multiplatformed typed. But what does this mean for Bungie.Net?

Well, we should expect linked PSN accounts [PC too?], and wave of brand new members from in-game advertising. [Remember Halo 2, 3 and Reach?] The site should experience a much needed revitalization and I'm excited for it. Sure the Flood, Community and Universe forums are great, but they're just not as active as they used to be...

I can't wait for the New Hotness, what about you?

New people? I have mixed feelings about it.

I'm not excited for the immaturity new people will bring, nor the ignorance they will bring. Although I would like the forum activity they'll bring.

Some fresh blood would be nice.

Given that Destiny won't be multiconsole upon it's first release, it might be a while till we see hordes of people with PSN handles visiting the site (or support for said people). No, at first we'll probably get a ton of people saying "Destiny is not like Halo Bungie plz go back and mak more halo u were gud at it."

It'll be interesting to see what changes, what gets added, and what gets removed when the New X4 Hawtness comes.

As for new members, of course I'm excited. It's always nice to see new faces around... but I'm mostly excited for the new members that will come and really offer something special to this community.

Not really the point though.
I like the new life they bring to the forums, but other than that...

Next wave of people to bring us closer to Bungie's domination of the world?

Sounds good. I'm sure lots of folks will stop by, but, eventually, the ones that stay will be the ones who invest in Bungie and the Seventh Column.

Or most of them. I hope.

It'll be bitter sweet. The site will have new life and new faces, but it wont be all kittens and rainbows either. With every new game Bungie makes, the community changes. Whether it be for better or worse, it changes, and change is something you need to get used to. Some argue that the forums are going down hill with the new users, and to an extent I have to agree, but at the same time, all it really is is a change, and those of us that have been here long enough to see a few of them have mixed feelings about these changes.

Good time are ahead, I'm sure of that much at the least. What the true extent will be, I don't know. But good times are ahead.

I came for Halo, but I heard the Tru7h, fought thru Carnage, and stayed for Bungie.

It will be fun teaching newcomers the way of the Bnet.

I think this is pretty much how I feel, but generally quite excited for it!

We were all new here at some point. I'm sure there will be some good eggs and some bad eggs, we will just have to sort them out accordingly.

Seeing some new members around would be cool, although no doubt a large number of them will not have a clue and will need help for a while.

You guys should hold a contest to see who can dish out the most (just) bans when all the new people show up. Simply set it for like a week or two. Then make like a kid on the playground and swing!

I am can't wait for the site update, but I am not really looking forward to a bunch of new people who generally just push potentially high quality threads off of the front page.

I'm excited, more people means my retardation will go largely unnoticed amongst the crowds.
