They asked what I wanted to be when I grew up;

I wrote down happy.

They told me I didn't understand the assignment;

I told them they don't understand life. - John Lennon

Going to be nice to see some changes around here. I only see positives coming out of updates.
Agreed. We need some change. Don't let B.net become stale!

The site would be plagued with visual vomit. Ugh, the thought of it.

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.

Who would say no? I can't wait for the update.

Content? No. The technology we're running on is just... old. To put things in perspective, bungie.net isn't even running in widescreen yet. Functionality is just inadequate. As Duardo mentioned, we have been on this specific version of bungie.net for 5+ years. I think we're long overdue for an update.

At any rate, this forum is not long for this world. It is 2012, after all - time to retire 2004 era tech. We can do better.

Well change is always scary but I think this one will be for the good. I'm a little scared about this update but I'm also looking forward to it.

Posted by: Arbiter 739I wouldn't consider any of those to be "technologies", but anyway...

Image posting could definitely work here, but only if it were accessible as a privilege.

Heh.


I wouldn't mind a multi-quote feature.

Gray socks are best socks. White is second, black third. Every other sock color is simply horrible.

Funny because most of the people who don't want the website to change were the same ones who wanted the changes with Reach.

I always loved the look of this site, but promises for an even better one is too good to be against it. I can wait for change, but I'm anxious to know what it will be.

  • 08.25.2012 8:02 AM PDT

I'm for the change.

True, true. But being able to change the color of your text at whim and being unrestricted in what images you can post are very important.

With one I can hide what I am saying and people must highlight everyone's words to ensure that they know what is being said. It can also cause plenty of confusion.

With the other we can have actual images of meatspin on here before the moderators can do anything about it.

Those are the two I will protest until I don't care about this place anymore. Those two features should not be added.
So your reasoning for the site not changing is 2 features that we're most likely not going to get and most people who make suggestion threads don't even talk about?

What a terrible bit of reasoning you've done there.

  • 08.25.2012 9:51 AM PDT

What goes here??

I'm ready for the new change.

  • 08.25.2012 9:56 AM PDT

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.

Um....I...it would be better for the site, bungie, and the community, but I don't know if my heart can take it :/ *sighs*

Hey I am a big Bungie fan ever since I played Halo 2. I love the series, I love Bungie. I have made a few Bungie logos in my metal shop.

I just want destiny.

What do you mean, exactly? Bungie employees have the ability to post them (I think if you use [img] to post an image the preview and final version always comes out as "[image removed]"). Are you suggesting that moderators be able to post images too or someone as high a rank as Mythic?

[img]test[/img*] = [Image Removed]
At some stage, when an account can be trusted enough, it should have the ability to post images.
I disagree. It breaks up immersion in the website (which, admittedly, only old-fashioned people like me care about). Even disregarding that, as most of you will, I disagree with giving any additional privileges to any title below "forum ninja", for reasons that have been beaten to death on these forums.
