I'm a member of numerous bands fan clubs. For only ten or less dollars i get spammer and hater exclusive forums and free shwag in return.

I'm sure you know what im getting at. How would you like it if bungie started a fan club where you'd have to pay a nominal fee, (no spammers or bungie haters are going to spend money to get in) and we can have private forums and mabey acess to club exclusive merch?

How cool would it be to see some random person on the street wearing a black Seventh Column shirt just like yours? It would be like a real cool inside thing, only no one else but us would care.

nominal fee? no

fan club? yes.

if you want to make a t-shirt, its not that hard. Get the design off the website and make the shirt.

But we are quite a large community, and although it might not be a bad idea, not enough people would be willing to simply pay for membership, especially since it's free at the moment.

Exactly, everyones joining. Everyone is being mean to each other on the forums and the atmosphere is just getting unpleasent. None of the people with the aforementioned problems would pay to join the club. So there you go you have a nice little exclusvie club. Also, yeah i guess i could just screen my own t-shirt, but i'd rather buy a new bungie issued exclusive shirt.

So I have to pay to avoid something I can just as easily ignore?

Well, anything sounds bad when you say it like that. But instead of having to ignor it youd have page after page of relevant conversations where intelegent posts arent bumped down by spam.

Create a group then. Private membership, invite the intelligent people.

If you really want to pay for something and get a 'free' teeshirt then pay the store a certain amount of money then you can get a 'free' items that are worth the amount you payed the store.

We're trying to get together an army here to take over the world. We need everybody to join up, you can't go around saying "hey, you've got a sadistic mind, amazing reflexes, have the anatomy to satisfy stosh's mom* and would serve well in the army... but well, you can't pay the $5.00 fee...".






*Satisfaction is a relative term. It comes in all shapes and sizes.

How about you just work on making a Utopian group instead. That way you can have a good group of only good members, and the Bungie.net forums can remain open.

You think it got what it takes to be..?.


God forbid you send me one of those I was checking for cool gamers and saw you messages too, I will scream to the top of my lungs and smash this damn screen/BlackBerry to pieces! You've been warned -_-

A good idea from my perspective.

Who's to say that there already isn't such an exclusive club? Perhaps the people who are in it can keep a secret and many people have just not been invited?


I'm pretty sure such chapters exist. Though they actually have a reason for not inviting people. I'm sure that I don't need to list the chapters you know I am talking about. I think I'll just quote them.
This is a PRIVATE chapter for specially invited members. If you have not been specifically, specially, or spectacularly invited, you will not be accepted.
Though to be fair, considering the members of those chapters they would be filled with spam if they didn't have such a policy.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

I paid 100$ for halo and halo 2, im not gonna pay another 10$ to talk to other bungie fans about it.
