Yes, but it doesn't mean you have to make over 7 threads a day?!


You don't make all 7 in the same place, lol.

No one in their right mind would make 77 threads either.
Obviously. Lets see now, 7 threads in one day hmm..
- Community: why did you come here
- Halo 3: ranking is rubbish
- ODST: best game ever
- Flood: do you hate mondays
- Halo 2: best game ever
- Crimson: worth the money
- Universe: omg marathon symbols in halo

There, seven quick ideas off the top of my head, half of which have been made, pinned or are on the 1st page of the forum already. Rather than make that rubbish it's much better to make a single thread, i.e. Fallen Bungie.net Members.

Ken... if your willing to pay 7 bucks a month for special treatment I will just give you my pay pal account. I will worship you. Deal?
I'll put this offer on the table as well.


It is evident you guys are not familiar with the facebook gold scam/meme.
Whats Facebook got to do with Bungie? Stay on target.

I'm prone to disagree. I'd rather put that money towards the BUNGiE foundation or something.

You know what? I could get behind the idea of a badge, custom title or some other forum perk being associated with that.

With something like a 1 year life on the badge/title and stackable levels for continued/repeat participation/donation.

I like that. It is money, but it is not going to anything but a charity and the reward (beyond the personal reward of knowing that you were charitable) is non-physical and not permanent.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

That would be cool. I should donate too.

It would (of course) be an immediate e-peen weapons race. I would suggest the ability to toggle the badge off (in profile settings) when the cries of "look who gets on their knees in front of Bungie everytime Bungie unzips their pants" get too annoying.

I understand your idea. Now we all know the mind is the limit for coming up with "good" discussion topics. Being dark, I find myself sort of digging for good subjects to present to the rest of us forum goers.

Now when Bungie releases some info on their new game, well we all know that there will be good discussion to jump into.

Now is this thread "good" discussion? Personally I think it is. Other than that, I really cannot judge.

Assuming we go with that shade of blue, how are we supposed to tell what parts of the posts are hyperlinked and what parts are not without difficulty? I had an image of a darker shade of blue in my mind and it just conflicted with the background.

Yes Ken, exactly that and exactly the inverse reply.

Both would be wonderful additions to high-quality discussion.

Bungie Pro, as stated in the first reply would serve the same purpose. I pay for Bungie Pro, but it's last iteration only granted me in-game features. Who knows, sawnose pointed out that there would be kickass features for old time Bungie Pro members when the new version launches.

I wouldn't mind added features, as long as they don't get in the way of how things are run around here. Bungie Pro had a great first run and I can't wait to see what new features come about it for bungie.next. If nothing else, think of your money as a donation (maybe for the Bungie Foundations Charity?) and you might get some cool swag or something.

Кланяються мені!

I haven't posted a thread in the mains in nearly 2 months. 77 threads would probably exceed the amount of threads I have ever created on Bnet. Believe it or not I actually believe in encouraging decent discussion over post count.

I liked where Recon was going with the Bungie foundation thing. If somebody going to spend thousands of $$ just to have a fancy forum hat, their hilarious misuse of resources will finally be useful to society.

Why would you need blue text? Just do a different color that isn't already taken.

I know I wouldn't buy it because I have never made more than 4 or 5 threads in one day

Even so, would that be a bad thing? No matter what the reason is behind donating it would still go to charity.

It is evident you guys are not familiar with the facebook gold scam/meme.
Its not a meme if nobody knows or recognizes it. Memes are popular social icons and ideas. This is not. If your thread was, in fact, sarcasm/parody/satire/a joke then you should've done it based on somethin people could recognize. Then, once you " admit " to people that it " was " a joke, stop pretending it's real. It's like telling a joke to someone, having them not laugh, then telling the joke to someone else who didn't hear it right in front of the first person. You look silly.

Just because something is a joke doesn't mean you can't learn or take anything from it.

That doesn't negate the fact that this is a patently bad joke thread that doesn't work for the reasons I mentioned. (If it is a joke thread, which I don't believe.)

Assuming (as I believe) you were serious, I still stand by the fact that exclusivity should be earned, not bought.

I'd say no as well... I mean, many would purchase simply to stand out/look different, almost as if they were trying to buy seniority, when in reality it's simply money that is enabling the different look.
