Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

I've clicked on the bnet bugs hyperlink and it wants me to sign into google. Is there a reason for this? Or is this a bug?

This may help prove my case. Just a link to a private group forum that would bring up the error message for you.

Never had this happen.

Edit:
I think Bungie is planning on using Google as the new way of signing in but it could also be that it directs you to whatever your e-mail service is for your browser.

"mailto" will direct your browser to whatever your default email service is.

I take it you use, or have used, gmail at some point in the past. That's essentially what it's opening for you.

It's signing you into your email. The idea is that you can email the webteam about bugs you find on the site, but I don't know how often they check the email.

"I have no words that would do justice to the atrocities you commit to the English language, as well as your continued assaults on the concepts of basic literacy and logical reasoning."

A "mailto:" url tells your browser to open up your mail client ready to send a message to the email address indicated in the link. How it does that is up to the browser. Usually, they check for a mail client installed on your PC, or some default web mail service. If you're using Chrome as your browser, I bet the browser is attempting to get your to use GMail since it can't figure out where to send you to open an email.

In short, this isn't a bungie.net issue, you have to configure your web browser to send you to the correct email service.

Ewe, I always try to avoid 'xx@xxmail.com' links. Those mailto tags that try to open up my Outlook are so annoying.

Just drink a beer and everything will be ok

Can someone please tell me how to change my default from Outlook to good 'ol Windows Mail?

Edit: I checked my default programs and apparently Windows Mail can't open mailto links. So I guess copy and paste is the way to go.

You can download the mail client for windows Mail, it's one of those Windows Essentials crap.

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.

They have a weird bug
