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 -_-

It's a logical joke. It's not made to hurt anybody. But some members O.D. and abuse the joke. When I saw that line I automatically though of what Achronos thought. Bungie games were made to satisfy people and many of them are mothers.......

All threads doesn't require a dark cloud over everybody's head.

As the author of that quote (and the person that wrote the code to make the title rotate like that), I'm somewhat curious why you think that is offensive? Bungie has existed since 1991. Our games have been satisfying lots of people since then. Some of them are mothers. Any additional context you add to that is purely of your own design, and you should get your mind out of the gutter.


Oh puh-leeze. If you really thought that when making it, you should have realized the normal meaning it has in our society, and realized that it might offend some people.

Anyways, it's funny. Bungie FTW.

Man, you guys are acting like the original poster said:

"I'm deeply offended and Bungie should change the way they are and not be allowed to say things like that and maybe they should all go to jail and be forced to watch films about affirmative action and give all their money to welfare queens!"

But he didn't say that. He simply stated that the phrase was offensive to him... in his opinion... and you guys jumped all over him.

I think the joke is a bit crude, and slightly tasteless... but I also know that such tasteless remarks are part of their culture and of course I have an overall opinion that bungie is awesome.

Just because someone disagrees with one little joke doesn't mean they don't support bungie or bungie's right to do and say what they want. Tolerance is needed on both sides.

Just because he doesn't like "your mom" jokes doesn't mean he can't "get" or "understand" bungie.

I'll be on my own side.

The fact that he takes offense(even though he comes across as whiny) isn't the problem, I think. The fact that he said it should be changed (implying that everyone thinks like him, or that what he says goes), seems to be the problem.

Not everyone is offended, and given the state of our society, you are indeed a minority.

I think this has served its purpose.
