Strange evolution how people have come to believe
That we are it's greatest achievement
We're barely, we're just a collection of cells
Overrating themselves

I think that what we really need is MORE threads about moderators, moderation, moderating, mod-anything. God knows thats what the Bungie community was founded on, posts about mods.
If people didnt waste so much time in here trying to jerk-off the mods, it wouldn't be such a bad place.
I don't think it's that. Even though lately there have been quite a bit of subjects about the Ninjas.
Most of the threads in question deal with:
1.) Curiousity (How do they work, how to become one)
2.) Criticism (You do this well, but you need to improve on a few things)
3.) Inquiries (I have a question that's aimed to you)
The solution? Well most people don't know about the FAQ's and Articles in HFCS. You'd be surprised as to how much just thumbing through it increases your knowledge on the subject. About the criticism, well maybe a PM to one of Master Ninjas could help reduce on the amount of threads made.
I actually dont think the community sucks, but I will say this constant attention to everything moderator related in The Septagon for the past 2 months is nothing but mod worship coming from those who think that by acting nice and posting in every moderator related thread will put them in good graces with the mods and in turn, with Bungie. (yes, its called a run-on)
A person can disguise sucking up for only a limited time before it becomes apparent who will grab thier ankles at the request of a mod.
I am aware that there is a current influx of people into the forums who may not be aware of FAQs, etc. How long should the community be stunted by those who are too lazy to go and find an answer? Question: If or When you have children, would you accept your kids teacher saying, "We understand your son is seventeen, but we have a few mentally challenged people in the class which doesnt allow us to teach anything higher than basic addition, I mean, you don't expect us to leave any child behind"? Would you accept that? Well, thats whats happening. The greater Bungie community is being stunted by a few Bungie challenged individuals.
The phrase "You're only as good as your weakest link" comes to mind. Why do we cater to the weakest link and allow them to dictate the direction the community goes? I don't know the answer, all I know is thats whats happening.
