Stop banning me please.

Elitism? As in Forum titles?

You guys need something to shake this place up. You're obviously pretty bored.


How about you give us something?

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

If you're reading this, you need to stop stalking me. If you can't stop stalking me, you might as well go here.

X-post from another thread, but still relevantYou may often wonder why those who frequent these forums place value on attributes such as title bars or join dates: they make you better. It's a fact that age often brings maturity, and dare I say it, it's not unlike the progression of one's time spent on the internet.

Are we to assume that there are no exceptions to this truth? Absolutely not; said assumption would be ridiculous. Much like real life, there are indeed outliers that refuse to evolve, refuse to grow up. However, even with a vocal minority holding other forum veterans back, those with experience still shine through.

Not acknowledging this simple fact of life is a rebellious trait found often among youth and adolescence, oft times accompanied by an immature resistance to authority. The hope of many older members is that those who hold this unprovoked resentment may someday mature and become enlightened like us.

Welcome the maturity I speak of, younger members. I proudly guarantee that you will find the experience these forums offer becomes exponentially more enjoyable should you accept this fact: like life, age brings wisdom on Bungie.net. In regard to the days of my own adolescence on this site, I cannot even consider the difference it would have made had I taken my own advice. The elder members of these message boards should be cherished. The flag the elder member is flying, whether it be mythic, '04, doesn't matter: their words brings wisdom. Abandon resistance and let your sensibilities evolve, younger ones; come, join us and discover life on the other side of B.net, the better side.

How about telling us more about Destiny ehh?

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

There are many powers in the world, for good or for evil. Some are greater than I am. Against some I have not yet been measured. But my time is coming.

There is unrest in the forums, there is trouble with the fans
For the Members want attention, and the Mythics ignore their plans

The trouble with the Mythics, and they're quite convinced they're right
They say Members are too childish, posting spam all day and night
But the Members can't help their failings, they've not seen the ebb and flow
And they wonder why the Mythics get upset with their callow

There is trouble in the forums; all common sense is dead
As everyone screams, 'Elitists!', and the Mods just shake their heads

So the Mythics formed a union; self entitled they remained
'The Members are just too naive, we will make them feel ashamed!'
Now there's no more rouge oppression; the darkness has bored most jerks
And the fans are all kept equal, by Achronos, DeeJ, and Urk

How about not the whole pic but a part of it? Like when Shishka Teased us with Hemorrhage, a picture of a "map" that we all liked in a Weekly Update?

That would certainly improve the quality of discussions.

I like that no one noticed I said

Posted by: goldhawk
we post in a forum with such tolerance and understanding.


I actually meant that, it's actually good to see this place develop and 'grow up', for a change. Of course this thread is a parody and of course none of you should take it remotely seriously - it's here for light comedic effect.

If i got a few smirks, or a little chuckle my work is done. I'll be back to post a new thread in another 2 years.

I found this thread almost mildly interesting, and I realized that you were attempting to be humorous.

Because this is about the maximum level of wit one can expect from a Mythic Member, I say good job.



Well, that was a rather salted wound mixed that ended up being mixed with chloroform eh?

Once Bungie is bright, I'm pretty confident that Elitism will rear its ugly head once more and make this Community go round.

Just quote one of the ninja or mod replies and add your own witty comment beneath it.

"That's about all that can be said for plots, which anyway are just one thing after another, a what and a what and a what.

Now try how and why."

I'd like to take this time to assure people that this joke has totally not been over done and is in no way indicative of a person with bad wit.

Also, Deej just told me that he is finally going to send me the box of chocolate chip cookies he totally promised.
