There's a whole bunch of events going on. Plus the social status order but on a website. Overlord are the principal, and ninjas are popular kids and everyone quoting them is just trying to be apart of the group and be cool. And members try and be cool so they can standout. Who agrees?

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Yes, but there is no homework or anything to actually learn.

If you assign every letter of the alphabet a number, a is 1, b is 2, etc., and you take all of the values of the word "MATH", and add them, you get 42. So math is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

Not aye, Captain.

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

No, I don't agree with that comparison. We don't have to do any work or learn anything. The Admins are not babysitters, not are the mods. No one is really popular or infamous.

If any school allegory works for what goes on here, its something like a lunch room. Everyone can sit where they want and pretty much say what they want. There are just a few things you can't do, and even then its hard to get in trouble for it.

I think that's what OP was trying to say.

I totally agree. With everything.

OT: I don't see B.net as school. Just a site. To talk about. Things.

Not with a bang but a whimper.

I could see certain aspects of a school's social structure being played out here, if not the educational nature of said institution. For example, we have the upper and lower classmen, the cute little freshman who always rant about how Bungie screwed up Halo, the bullies who make you leave the forum, and the hall monitors who are equal parts student as they are enforcers.

  • 08.16.2012 6:19 PM PDT

Ugh, school. You said school.

I disagree. Bnet is more similar to a website than a school.

Thought this thread was going to be about bungie "takin us to school" in video game ownage, the wisdom of gaming, or something.

I was disappointed by a (veiled) complainer.

Evilcam would be one of those kids who stands outside the cafeteria, or on the roof, smoking a cig with his buddies talking about how everything sucks. He probably did that 100 years ago when he was in high school.

Welcome to the town of "Diligence." I'm Mayor Due.

It's a community. You could just as easily compare it to a work environment or an old folks home. Theres always going to be people grouping together, branching off, the whiners, the winners, the losers, so on and so forth.

I come for the witty banter, and video game news.

I have the internet and Doctor Who; i don't need a life.

B.net is more like that class where the teacher doesn't show up randomly which means they don't have a substitute teacher already planned, so we have these crappy substitute teachers filter in every once and a while, while sometimes someone from the schools administration walks in and tells us to shut up and keep it down.
