Of course! MSXL (where *ahem* Halo53 hangs out) is still active, too. Hardcore to the max, yo.


These kids don't care about our old folks home. What time is Bingo tomorrow?

Happy hunting.

This is awesome, 10 years is a long time and yea, it does fly by quite quickly. It's almost been 2 years for me and it's been enjoyable to be able to come to a community to discuss and just meet new people.

I wish you luck for your future.

What if I told you...

*scoots in closer*

I hate you

I like the "back when stosh was just a dude" part the best.

Pretty great that Bungie didn't get too big with Halo to become asses. It's kinda cheers to Bungie for being a tolerable company for so long or at least for giving us the tools to make a good communities right here on b.net. I'm glad to see members that stick around, we've lost so many good ones, it's really great to see oldies still around now and again.

Now that Eagle reminded me that you're a Mets fan, we'll have to find a game to go to next spring. I try to go to a couple Mets games every year. I'll be Pming ya at some point, Maybe we can get a few B.nerds to go. It'd be sweet.

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 feel a special title could possibly be in order, yeah?

I think it is crazy to think back how many Bungie.net memories I have had. And what's even crazier is that you have technically witnessed just as much as I have but twice. Congrats!

I honestly think that a lot more people would care about some of those old stories than you think. A lot of the newer people here (or more newly active) love to hear about that old Bungie lore, and having some folks around with serious institutional knowledge benefits us all.


Count me in on that one!

But to anyone still around in 2022, I'll have some kind words for you as well then.


Let it be known that I have etched this into a crusty pizza box. If you do not make good on your word I will be forced to subpoena you for questionable questioning. Noodles will be involved.

Glad to see you're still around and kicking. As far as this being just a forum? It truly is, but the community needs this place to stay connected. When a place like this can swing from incredible lows such as BB's untimely demise to great highs like The Pie thread. Well...its special.

This place is a portal for fun. No cake.

I don't like account birthday threads in the public forums, never have.

I get it, though. You join a website, and its just a website. You go about your life, play video games, hang out with your friends, and kill some free time. Then it's one year later, and you can't believe it. You've been around for a full calendar year, which you didnt ever think would happen. You want to tell someone, but the truth is everyone else has already been there for a year so nobody cares. Then its been 5 years. Then its been 7, and you make an overused but still funny Bungie joke.

Then suddenly, it's been an entire decade.

I could sit here and talk about how much this place has changed, or how this place used to be the septagon, or how the septagon used to be part of Chapter Founders. I could talk about when Halo National used to be the biggest chapter on this website, or when Honey Mustard vs BBQ was the poll on the main page. Or when groups were chapters, for that matter.

I could talk about sketchfactors first day, or when that stosh guy was just another dude who played Halo, or the threaded view. But Ive spent the last decade of my life subtley dropping reminders about what this place used to be like, and most of you don't care in the same way that I dont really care about Madonna, mullets, or the cold war. I get it.

But 10 years ago, I was just some 13 year old kid who wanted to find out if the sequel to the greatest game he ever played was actually going to be made. A high school and college experience, first car, first "big boy" full time job, moves to 2 different cities and a move out into my own place without my parents later, and here I am.

I've still got a lot of life in front of me, and by most standards I'm still a pretty young dude. But around these parts, Ive seen a lot. Way more than Ive ever expected to see. After all these years, its harder to keep track of who all of you are. But Ive seen a lot of people come and go, and I know this place isnt forever. So to everybody reading this now, I just wanted to say thanks for making this a cool place to hang out for the last 10 years. I wont remind you of this a year from now. Not five, and probably not another seven. But to anyone still around in 2022, I'll have some kind words for you as well then.

Oh and to Bungie, I owe all of you guys and gals a drink
Thats was beautiful.

  • 10.16.2012 7:38 PM PDT

Damn, 10 years is definitely a long time! I hope I can stay active in the Bungie community that long.
