A culture does not need "Rites of Passage" or "Components of Culture", although they might be common in most cultures. Cultures only need a group of people that are networked together through some common. For example, race has culture, coffee has a culture, nations have culture, religions have culture, politics have culture, your office/school has culture, &c...
The Bungie Community forum can be seen as a subculture of Bungie.net, which can be seen as a subculture of the Bungie Community, which can be seen as a subculture of the gaming industry, which can be seen as a subculture of the entertainment industry, which can be seen as a subculture of industry, which can be seen as a subculture of humanity.
Or, to put it short: yes, I believe the Seventh Column is a culture, and a subculture.
