Subject: Do Forum Ninja's get paid to do what they do?

You just lost the game. Now facepalm yourself for clicking this :P

I've seen Forum Ninjas who post/reply things at 8 in the morning, and I've been wondering "Why?" I thought Forum Ninja was just a title given to moderators on the forum. Are they community members, or Bungie Employees?

They've got no soul, allowing them to sit at computer moderating the forums all day. Why do they do it? You tell me, lol.

Because time zones.

Nope, but there are benefits. Your mom might be able to go into a bit more detail.

I spend too much time here.. too much time indeed.

I tweet?

Bribes are a form of payment, if you're counting that, then yes they get paid for what they do.

Key

"Why?"Because different timezones. (For example, one of them is in Norway.)

Why would you pay somebody for a job even a Qbix could do?

You should be more responsible next time. How could you let burrito of all people bother you like that?

  • 08.11.2012 9:26 AM PDT

Feel free to send me messages, please be willing to wait 6-8 years for a reply.

1-7 hours if you at least tried to make it readable.

Immediately if you are Yax, Telec, or legendary.

Never if you are mythic, you guys smell funny.

They get a choice,money, women or naked pictures of Stosh.


I hope those pictures where worth it.


Seriously, they are unpaid members who do it on their own time after they where asked by bungie to be ninja's.


Plus that whole "wet noodle" thing.

I'm sure they get paid for other work they do, but not B.net forum moderating.

No...we don't get a choice on getting those. They just happen and it's bad news bears.

You imply a level of control over Halo: Reach matchmaking that we no longer have. Or, in your vernacular, it isn't our shiznit anymore.

Forum Ninjas, don't you get benefits from Bungie such as playing the Halo: Reach Beta before the public release?

We did get F&F beta invites. We also got some goodies from the Halo: Reach armory. I wasn't a ninja at the time, but ninjas in H3 got Recon armor (I got it later for winning a screenshot contest).

We also got a sweet t-shirt.

Also, we got [REDACTED].

If I was him I wouldn't want to hear it from the man willing to braid his 'male sack'.

Wasn't he going to have a Mohawk for that male sack?
