Don't judge a book by its cover, unless it has bacon on the cover, then it is a good book.

flooding this site, how will be able to tell the trolls from the people genuinely here to talk about the game? People on here seem to take the join date of the OP as a way to determine if he is a troll or not.

I can see this causing a problem. Will we trust the new users or will we just write them off as trolls?

think of it in a pack of animals when a new member tries to enter the pack, the alphas will fight and shun the new member out to try and keep them away from their women

We watch, and wait. I think it'll be nice to get new people in here.

Well OP I guess you'd better earn a title here soon, lest you be grouped with them.

I'd say most of them will probably be old fans who come back to the site.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

We will see a lot of fanboyism. That is for sure.

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

People keep thinking it'll be new members that come in, but I have this feeling that it will be old members returning.

  • 11.27.2012 12:01 PM PDT

It's usually pretty obvious if someone is a troll or not, you don't even have to look at the join date...

-Panthers are the best.
-Haters gonna hate.
-Who Dares Wins
-If your one of my real life friends. STOP GOOGLE-ING ME.
XD

Well the flood is generally bad at detecting trolls at the best of times so i doubt we'll see much change one destiny arrives..

WWe'll see how much the hype builds up when they actually announce it.

Halo 3 is where the morons of the universe congregates.

I am thinking of an old story. "Three Billy Goats Gruff" (hint the troll dies at the end)

"So- So this means Im just going to be miserable for the rest of time?!"

"No. This means that you have to live life to the fullest. You have one life, live it well. Make sure you die without regrets. Get a new life, new mate, new family. You, out of all people, don't deserve a terrible fate of misery like that. Having nothing to look forward to is good. It makes sure you want to keep on going. Living is a right, not a privilege."

Yeah, I feel left out of the loop whenever I'm unbanned. I've been here since 09.

I am a pharmaceutical scientist. I received my Masters degree in Pharmaceutics from the University of the Sciences in Philadelphia in 2010, after working as a Pharmacist for 4 years. I currently work in King of Prussia, PA, and focus on the analytical chemistry of small molecule APIs. My clients include some of the most well known big pharma companies in the world.

Happens with every game Bungie releases. There will likely be a huge initial increase, then it's a safe bet that 1 month after release, ~80% of those posters won't be "active".

Same way as in the H3 era. You know, this site wasn't always empty.
