Subject: Who wants to create a Bungie.net Constitution?

I want to get a small group of people together to make a constitution for Bungie.net. Now before anyone jumps to conclusions that I am probably getting blacklisted and I just want change so things will go my way, your going to be wrong.
I want to do this so we can write out all of the acceptable things to do and the rights that we have as members of these forums. I am sure Achronos will say that we have no rights, but technically posting inside a proffesional forum with over 2 million members, we do. The constitution will be written clearly and make statements of why you will be punished for certain rights. It will include the idea that anyone who get's blacklisted gets a trial to defend themselves if it is a ban of 7 days or more.
This so called "Constitution" will provide a more friendly welcome and improve the Bungie community overall, and the only thing to lose out of this idea is a little bit of free internet time. I felt it proper to place this here instead of The Classifieds because this is more about helping Bungie rather than advertising for help. If you want to help write this constitution, please post here that you want to help. I cannot do it alone, and I would hope that there are others who think it would improve a little on Bungie.net members and maybe help get through to people the rules. We all know no one is going to read the Code of Conduct of Terms of Use, because everyone just clicks "I accept". Maybe since this will be written by members of Bungie, it will be more appealing to someone who needs more direction.

You have a great idea for creating a constitution for the forums.

Do you already notice that we have a code of conduct and the policies?

Isn't that something like a compact or an agreement?

Yeah I answered to that at the end of my thread.

Constitutions are lengthy, confusing, and often flawed.


Bungie.net does not need any such thing since it already has a simple set of rules, guidelines, and provisions.

I've been around these parts for almost eight years now...wow! Maybe I should be concerned about that...

No need. If people don't read the rules, the won't read your rendition of them. Waste of time IMO.

Meh, I'd rather try and fail then fail to try.

Where's Goldhawk, I want credit for making up that quote, unless it turns out someone else already said it.
Alright, go ahead. Shoot, make a constitution or whatever you're calling it. It may turn out to be a good idea. It just sounds a bit shaky to me..and that's a pretty famous quote. I'm pretty sure it's been around for over 50 years now...

Forget the Constitution, it's all about the Articles of Confederation. Trust me, they're all the rage in Paris.

People don't read constitutions and hundreds of years later, people are still interpreting the meaning of them.

You're looking for an easy to read and simple to follow "rule book", not a constitution.


Q.F.T.

It's just a waste of time, in my opinion. Nobody will care about it, unless someone is really bored enough to want to read something like that.

Constitution? We don't even have rights on Bungie.net. That would be like baking a cake for the anorexic club.
