Subject: I've realized something in my breif hiatus from Bnet

Friends before pixels.

Whoever created this forum layout is a goddamn genius.

After being sucked into the endless vortex of Vbulletin forums for a summer plus some, and finally becoming active again on Bnet, it really makes me appreciate how nice these forums are.

ITT: We appreciate what Bungie does for us, whether it be memories, games, or the forums they have given us: Post something that you really appreciate!

Well, after a while, I just kind of took it for granted and moved on with life.

But now that I have been around other forums for a while, this is just...wow. SO SIMPLE, SO GOOD!

Hi I'm RT and I like to argue!

I had the same revelation after a quick trip to the Waypoint forums today.

I think Bungie's designers do a lot of KISS'ing at work.

The forums are fast, clean, easy to navigate and easy to read. I'd prefer a light background with dark text but I can accepted that one shortfall.

Also groups and PM are sweet but I'd like to see a Buddy/RSS feed style system too.

I believe Achronos said somewhere, sometime, over the years that this forum is a heavily customized version of... something, but I can't remember what.

Achronos is the master. That's why they call him the Bungie.net Overlord.

The Secret Society 95% of activity is me, I could use some help.

I don't go into other forums simply because I get so confused at who posted what it becomes work instead of fun. I agree.

Challenge me to a Hawaiian Punch chugging contest. I dare you.

This was one of the first sites i used for forums. The second one, thewestalker.net, was an old Halo site that was also brilliantly crafted. After a while i saw some other forums, mainly Vbulletins and the like, and realized the two sites had spoiled me.

B.net's set up is just about perfect.

  • 10.17.2012 7:02 PM PDT

Bungie.net's gorgeous layout has completely ruined my internet experience in some way. I say that not in a bad way, but I am just incapable of visiting other forums and enjoying them as much because of how great the UI and interaction is here.

One glance at waypoint forums and I stayed here for good...

Every time I go to waypoint I appreciate Bungie.net even more. I go to a couple forums and B.net has the best layout by far. B.net hasn't been upgraded in a long time and it still looks better then most forums.

To clarify, I quickly visited the Waypoint forums and it is utterly dreadful.

Kudos to the designer(s) of the Bungie.net forums.

This forum is by far my favorite.Very clean and simple compared to other halo forums.

While there are a few things I think this forum could do with, I do love the simplicity and it's definitely the easiest to read forum I've ever been on.

It's probably why I spend so much time on here.

  • 10.17.2012 8:23 PM PDT

I concur. Bnet was my first real experience with a forum site and now I find it difficult to use any other site after spending so much time with this great layout.

I agree, Bungie forums are the best, I'm just hoping the Bungie.next doesn't change it.
