Subject: B.Net Haunted?

I was on B.net on July 4th (around 11pm EST) and my screen started acting bizzarre. It was scrolling down by itself and my mouse cursor was also moving by itself. It hasn't happened since, and it only happened on B.net. Was there an error with B.net at that time, or is my CPU haunted?

Hmm...Sounds like the disembodied soul was trying to gain access to your computer. You should download anti-spyware/virus software. Run some scans and make sure he didn't leave anything behind.

It must be that your elves working in the sweatshops around the North Pole and equator have finally decided to revolt! -_O

Pray for your life now, Imposter Santa, as thousands od two foot tall warriros march towards your evil castle on the South Pole to destroy you once and for all!

I AM THE REAL SANTA!

You can never be too careful when it comes to The Soul.

Disembodied wha? Is that some sort of B.net ghostly protector? It sounds bad. I'll scan my computer, but i hope everything is ok. Oh, and Darkness is really the Easter Bunny; don't listen to anything he says.

I'm the Eastrer Bunny AND Santa. That's how kick ass I am.

Anyways, Disembodied Soul...*shivers* He used to post a lot...now he only posts once every few months. Still, it's been a while...I fear the worst. For Santa, Disembodied Soul is a super computer hacker that was released on Bungie.com in 1994. Bungie stopped him, but the member still exsists on the servers as "Emotional Support", his soul trappedi n a mesh of flesh and machine for all eternity. Usually Bungie employees accidently let the soul out once every few months by posting things like "." or "Monkey" on the forums. But, it's been a while, and I fear he may be running loose again. I know all this because I am omnipetent, if not entirely truthful all the time.

No need to panic..... yet.

We don't know if The Soul has gotten loose again.

But it never hurts to be prepared. Especially considering the date. Strange things happen when se7ens get together.
Aye...I even hear Johnny Depp has even risen out of the sea of the Carrbiean, and is battling giant squids!

I fear the soul is free. The update may end up being taken over, who knows what will happen if the soul is free.

SOmeone needs to make a history of the soul, so everytime someone talks about him, the thread isnt' a big explination of the soul, but about the original topic.

Sadly, there has also been a lot of (both unintentional and deliberate) mis-information about The Soul.

Quite honestly, the less that most people know, the safer they will be.
Such as...? I mean, the Soul really did eat that monkey last Bungie day...right?

I did a CPU scan (it took forever) and everything checked out o.k. I've never seen any Computer do what it did on my screen. I couldn't control anything. The only thing I could do was manually turn it off. After it came back on everything was fine. Strange stuff though. I'll keep my eyes peeled for that Disembodied whatever though and i'll pm the mods if i see any weird stuff. Thanks for the help.
P.S. I know Darkness Howls is just Slappy the Elf. He's still mad we laid him off up here at the North Pole for his drinking problem. Throw him a dollar.

Who the -blam!- is slappy the elf?

And don't worry...the soul doesn't cause too much damage, as long as you don't get in his way...he has a hunger for blacklisted members.
