They did such a good job with Halo I have to stick around and see what's next.

These philosophical/cerebral threads about the mentality of the community and stuff like that are getting kinda tiresome, to be honest.

I also thought of making this thread, quoting DeeJ's closing words in the mail sack questions.

I am not sure if I am truly "core" in the community of this website...I certainly dont feel that way. I do, however, feel a core member of the larger Bungie fan base.

This thread feels warm and fuzzy. I won't be a jerk. I won't be a jerk.

...But here are my views.

The coming generation of gamers in Bungie's next IP will navigate this community within the walls that line a route Bungie and its employees have largely set. We stand as the relics from years past on these forums, but our logic isn't any more sound, and it doesn't mean we are any more creative than they will be. We're simply more affixed to Bungie, what it creates, and what it stands for. That isn't a bad thing, it is simply the realistic approach to take, one without illusions of self-importance.

Accept my apologies if I've taken some of the cheer from this thread. Have a sea otter.

Questions lead to learning, learning leads to kowledge, knowledge leads to understanding, understanding leads to peace.

Never said anything about self-importance, just that we stuck with BUNGIE and because of that, we've grown as a community.

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."

It means that we are willing to just wait....and wait.....and wait.......................until Bungie can announce their new game. That we are loyal.
And I like it. After most of the flood of people leave, we'll still be here, loyal Septagonians.

DeeJ actually said that in response to something I wrote. Sorta the inspiration behind this thread.

Also, you are Core. Don't let the Mythics and their cliques fool you. You care enough to be here while the Darkness shrouds our eyes. As far as I'm concerned, that's good enough reason to be considered core.

If we do the right things with this next game, and Bungie.net gets invaded en masse again, I'll remember who kept us company during my first year.
You better DeeJ, you better.
I wonder if he would take into account participation outside of the Community forum.
That'll probably be the case.
