Subject: Thoughts on improving the quality of posting and general content

Man of God. Fan of Bungie. Eater of many Jr. Bacon cheeseburgers.

I think everyone should follow the rules and be cool. It's a tradition here at BUNGiE. The changes you purpose seem unnecessary and I honestly don't think they'll effect the posting quality. Sorry to shoot this down; I just disagree.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

Threads like this are why I avoid the Community Forum. . .
Because you're afraid of posts longer than a paragraph that include long words and challenge you to do more than write a one sentence dismissal without engaging with the original post?

Do tell, why would a thought provoking thread make you avoid this hallowed hall of enlightenment?
The only thought being provoked in threads like this are how I wanna -blam!- strangle you -blam!-s right now. 5 -blam!- years I've been coming here, and not ONCE has anyone made me mad. I don't know if this is some sort of elaborate joke, but I can tell you right now, I would -blam!- kill every last one of you -blam!-s right now if I had the chance. I'm wired down to the bone, and I'm pissed off at this bull-blam!-.



Achronos, get your -blam!- together, get this bull-blam!- title system out of here. I'm -blam!- tired of it, I'm about done with this place all together.


FIVE -blam!- YEARS. HOLLY JESUS -blam!- CHRIST. This is just stupid, I hope this is a joke.

-blam!- you OP, -blam!- you to everyone who is acting seriously, and -blam!- this bull-blam!- title system. I hope to GOD this thread is a joke.


Be happy, you've been the first to make me type an angry post. Also be happy, because I would love nothing more than to watch the life drain from your -blam!- eyes you self centered, egotistical useless -blam!-s.

/rage

sorry I'm mad.


Prime example of a poor quality non blue post. Alls you did was say the blam word and make death threats. This is why its so important for us blue bars to stand together and clean this community up. I think blue is a future we all can believe in.

Seriously? Death threats?

You need to control yourself, that was one of the most immature responses I have ever seen.

When I grow up I want to be bitter and spiteful.

"i liked the reality where everything was on fire better"

I don't see why everyone's upset with shoe's post. There's so much faulty reasoning and anger in it that it clearly cannot be serious.

While I may have different reasons, I have always advocated what PA is basically trying to communicate. All problems stem from the rules, so clearly if we eliminate the rules we will no longer have problems.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

I have always liked the idea of Mythic incentives or maybe a little extra available flair (i.e. avatars, profile backgrounds, etc.) but this has to be one of the worse ideas I have seen. There are too many Mythic members whose personalities and attitudes have been somehow negatively affected by becoming a Mythic member for anything like this to be considered.

If given the right to post about say... a political topic, I can imagine a newer member wanting to post his own political topic only to receive a flood of blue-hat flames including, "You don't have the right to post this!" and "You haven't 'earned' Mythic yet so you can't post this!" and a bunch of other obviously hot-headed, offended replies all because Mythic members "earned" it and everyone else hasn't.

Honestly, I'd say a little less than half of Mythic members are overly full of themselves. Quite a few Mythic members are jerks and truly believe they are better than others who don't have a blue title bar.

Primo, after beating you in fantasy football this week, I ask you this: what do you consider "good content" or "quality content" that no one else besides a Mythic member has put forth in this community? Everyone has the capability, many don't realize they are capable of this recently mentioned "quality".

One thing I did notice about your OP that maybe you didn't do purposely is that your idea doesn't include restricting non-Mythic members, in which I applaud. That is the reason I took the time to actually put together a thought out response to your idea. Again, I would love to see some incentives but we can go without this.

No, because this forum is full of circle-jerkers trying to get mod positions and blue bars being arrogant because of a title.

I sincerely hope Primo's OP is some sort of satire or joke.
How's that inferiority complex going for you? You've managed to miss the point so completely it's funnier than the OP.

It's funny how a lot of none blue rank members hate the elitism and accuse blue ranks to be elitist and still plenty members are trying to become blue rank members.

Not all blue ranks are elitist and not all blue ranks care to be have a blue rank, such as myself, I didn't worked hard to get a blue rank nor care to lose it.

Ultimately the real solution to this elitist problem would be to get rid off them.

If you are a Mythic Member then you shouldn't be getting banned anytime soon. That's how I see it at least.

I completely disagree. I just got this blue bar back, and I'd expect the mods to expect more of me, as a poster here. It means that I have abided by the rules for long enough, and I should continue to do so.

I think equality is key, not privilege on the internet.

Which is the way it has always been and the way it should continue to be.

I lol'd at the absurd miscommunication that occurs whenever dibbs post something. Perhaps his brain is so highly evolved that he can no longer clearly communicate with lesser life forms, even among his own species.

This entire thread was worth it just for this. I'm in tears.

Checking out my profile I see?

Clever, very clever.

Edit: Is anyone else getting subtle "trickle down" economic ties here?

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

That's trolling done right for those of you keeping score at home, and no, you can't do it just as well. Yes, I'm talking to you. Yes, you. Do not attempt to imitate.

And now, with some people starting to get angry, I think it's best we lock this up before things get out of hand.
