Subject: This Community Is Great

No signature found. Click here to change this.

I've been thinking lately about the Bungie.net community, and I really recognized how great this community is. I mean, think about all the free perks we have for joining.

Chapters
Several Forums
Active, Tangible Moderators
Wide Variety of Discussion
Halo 2 Live Stats
Lots of Account Customization
Lots of members
An Active Society

The list goes on, and those are just the things I came up with off the top of my head.

But one thing that I've found is truly superb about Bungie.net, in fact, things, are the users. The members. The people who are active and dedicated members of this community. Granted, there are trolls, spammers, flamers, et cetera, but put those aside and this is a pretty damn fine place. I always find the maturity of the forums (especially The Underground and The Septagon) very refreshing, and good for intelligent discussion, but not only that, the more well-known members are just funny. Not in a bad way, in a good way. I always find myself reading a quote that makes me laugh out loud.

The more prominent and active members here make up a pretty tight-knit community, and there's sort of a sense of comradery in us, and it's a good feeling.

Another great aspect of this website is the moderating. I appreciate the fact that the administrators are tangible beings here, not just faceless, unknown people running a server, they're members just like you and me, who you can talk to, or get to know just like anyone else.

Not only that, I just have a lot of respect for the intelligent members here. The ones who don't flame, or fear anything they aren't used to, who you can have an intelligent discussion or debate with that doesn't include the phrase "UR MOM!" in it.

So, I just want to give out a "thank you" to all of the moderators, and all of the active participating members of the website. You make this place great.

I agree, this is a good community. There is alot more personality in this community than I have found in any other. Even the trolls and spammers are a breed apart from those you find on the Infusion powerboards. They have a certain finesse you only find with B.net trolls.

Hard to imagine this website being the internet projection of the community on XBL... I wish death upon them all.

I sense....... sycophantism.... someone..... trying to..... get.... in to Halo 3...... Beta......


Seriously though, I agree. Despite the underlying jackassery, the good members of the community shine through and make the forums etc, a good place to be in.

Your correct grammar and spelling looks like a pathetic excuse to get on the beta to me... I see right through you, Snap Dragon.

You've got to think crazy, of course, because you only get innovation by refining insanity. - Jason Jones

I have been here for a loong time (pre halo 2 announcement/ account cmwak1 then). At first when the new peoples started coming in, i thought they were annoying. But now that i have watched them post so much they kinda have grown on me, and now there are new new peoples wanting halo 3 info. I love this community, the interaction with bungie and the things we give and get are amazing.

No ass kissing was intended, but if it helps further my goal of leading bungie to world domination, then please assume ass kissing.

Thanks for shooting me down there, Pezza....

Is this the official thread for sucking up to everybody ?
I wanted to say that this community has the best hair-dos of them all.

I learn a lot, laugh a lot, pee occasionally, and keep coming back for more torture.

Seconded.

Amidst all the general nonsense and tomfoolery, there are a lot of intelligent people on this site.

You just gotta know where to look sometimes ;-)

Anywhere but people shouting 'Look at me! LOOK AT ME!'
I love the randomness. And lame jokes, like 'No lame jokes'. Especially the ones that I'm clearly the only one to understand.

Yeah, the members here are great. And we have some ever-so-lovely moderators ;) But besides all the features, forums and everything else, I definetly think the people make this place great. They have done a great job of actually making your username mean something. This is the only forum where I have actually encountered and acknowldged encountering a member more than once, and I rarely forget people. The fact that in my year and a half here I was able to make friends and enemies proves that Bungioe did a great job setting up a community and not a forum.

I happen to agree, all though there are a lot of spammers or flamers who just think it is fun and funny to insult the other members, this is still one of the greatest websites I have joined, and is an awesome community. I can learn a lot about tactics as well as good places to take difference types of action in halo and halo 2 in the forums. the players have even helped me out when stuck in a particular part of a level, and the good far outweighs the bad

You people have just sent my sides into orbit. A bunch of MLG try hards sucking the dick of some supposed pro half the thread hasn't even heard of. Classic.

This is a pretty good community and I like it here. If it weren't for Bungie.net I would only have 2 people on my friends list. I just wish that people like Berserker would just stop sweating me. It is pretty pathetic. :)

Yes; Bungie.net is great. I myself find it hard to believe this is actually a company's forum, it seems just like a typical fanboy forum(Or something similar to that) rather than an official company website.

So, yeah, just to put it in a nutshell, Bungie.net is great, the community is fantastic, and I love it.

Oh, and I love you too Pezza. ;D
Please return my calls? :(
