Not with a bang but a whimper.

No, not the parasitic organism hellbent on galactic destruction, nor even it's far worse counterpart the off-topic forum. What you must fear is the incoming flood-tide of humanity that will be swarming to this website after Bungie announces Destiny, which I believe will probably be at the VGAs. You thought the darkness was horror? Who among us remembers the announcement of Halo 3 or Halo Reach? Was not the sudden influx of ignorant members far worse than this present darkness?

All false eloquence aside, how do you guys feel about the fact that there will soon be far more new members than veteran ones?

I'm actually looking forward to the arrival of new members.

  • 11.25.2012 10:33 AM PDT

New members won't be that bad. Once they know what is happening they'll either move on, or become part of the community.

It'll be interesting to get some new blood in, but what I am not looking forward to is all the threads that are bound to be made about the exact same thing.

Actual new members will be a nice change from the new accounts that are just alts created for trolling purposes.

You're in the community forum, that happens all the time anyway. I see what you mean, but getting some new members on the site far out weighs the repeat threads we will see IMO.

hi

I don't have much of a problem with it...

It is part of of the inevitable circle of forum life brother. You were once part of the new, as was I. Do not be seduced by stagnancy. The status quo is unchanged, but to perpetuate stagnancy is to sacrifice growth.

I put my false eloquence second lolol

It won't be quite so bad if Bungie makes a designated forum for Destiny either.

Funny how all the members who have posted in this thread saying that they would like new members, are all mythics.

OT: Let's hope that they all stay on the Destiny forum that will probably come into existence right before or after news of Bungie's next installment. That way, the the outbreak will be contained and the mods can refrain from firing the 'ban rings'(get it, Flood, Halo).

We have souls too. Well, some of us do.

Blackness Confirmed. You've got soul.


The Ultimate Opinion.

The time it takes to adjust to this community is not very long. Also I think the new members will be good for this site.

  • 11.25.2012 10:48 AM PDT

What a waste....

It'll be nice to have other alts of Achronos around to talk to.

More new members = more superiority for the Mythics.

I absolutely hate new members. Some of them come in for about a week, and when they screw up and another person (who is much more experienced) tries to help them out, they say they know how this place works.

Also, I would suggest simply nuking The Flood. There's too many problems with it anyways.

You worry too much. Welcome the flood of underlings, we can show them our ways and recruit new soldiers.

  • 11.25.2012 11:04 AM PDT

The thought of new members gives me a rush :P

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Implying that doesn't happen here.

That's gross, Arbitor.

OT: I think the new members will be awesome. We just need to mold their minds to do our bidding..

  • 11.25.2012 11:16 AM PDT

I will own everyone in Halo: Reach

Hey! Don't talk of The Flood like that! (Forum) Not everyone there are 9yr old trolls!

OT: I don't give a flying -blam!- about new members, I'm used to everything, the Flood preapares you for everything. Also, I hope they announce it at the VGAs, we've waited for so long now.

Inappropriate. Went a little to far with the butt hole tearing.

Really? I think old people will be back.

Only after we ban Bricypoo.

My plan of taking over the Bungie Community should be done by that point, then everyone will bow to me Even Achronos himself

What is it with members and their dirty thoughts? New Members = New People = New Friends = Rush.. I think.

New Flood

I'm all for a massive influx of new people to sweep aside the horrible jerk infested insular hellhole these forums have become.

The bans... the locked threads...
