Okay here's Deej's post and I am going to interject my responses into it: [quote]Hey there, Community. At Bungie, we’re committed to making our website a safe, well-lit place for the community. As the engaged innkeepers of Bungie.net, we’ve learned that accountability is a great ingredient in the recipe for a healthy community. When a user has some personal investment associated with their account, they’re more likely to take pride in the way they communicate with other people.[/quote] Accountability you say? That's really funny coming from you DeeJ, considering you and the rest of Bungie have virtually none on the forums for your game breaking mistakes. Personal investment can be accounted for with their previous gaming experiences, as I am sure those who played halo have been on these forums for a while. Again, [i]accountability[/i] on your part is lacking here (more like common sense actually). [quote]Since its inception and throughout various evolutions, Bungie.net has served a community that shares a game. The game (Destiny, for example) is the thing we all have in common – the unifying element that brings us together in the first place. In order to ensure that the end-users who are accessing the public forums on Bungie.net have a greater interest in the quality of the conversation, we’re going to require that each account be linked to a Guardian with some player history. At current, that includes more than 99% of our active community.[/quote] No, Destiny is not the thing we [i]all[/i] have in common, it is the thing that [i]most[/i] of us have in common. And who ever said those who don't have Destiny aren't interested in the "quality of conversation"? [quote]Bungie.net accounts are free, easy to make, and easy to link to your playable character. Your access to the public forums is tied to your Guardian, but your account can still be used to enjoy many of the free social features that we provide. If you’re not playing Destiny, you’ll still have access to Private Groups.[/quote] Free, but apparently exclusive now. This is sounding almost like the whole TTK situation (Minus the free, but aligned with the lock-out). [quote]If you’re a new user who is seeking support from us on the #Help forum, you can find some instructions on how to create and link an account here: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/12130 If you need assistance with creating your account, let us know here: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Troubleshoot?oid=13633 It is our hope that you’ll enjoy a long stay in our online home. Throw down some roots. Make some friends. Play some games. Be excellent to each other. DeeJ, out.[/quote] Yeah I'd love to make friends, with everyone, Destiny users and non-destiny users alike. And roots? Well the people that have been here for years were the roots, so I think you mean "throw away some roots." We won't be excellent to each other because you guys are practically a disgrace. -blam!-ing ridiculous. We're in the forums ripping each other apart daily BECAUSE YOU LACK THE SO-CALLED ACCOUNTABILITY THAT YOU SAID FOSTERS A HEALTHY COMMUNITY. Don't you see? You guys lack it and don't respond to [b]important issues[/b], therefore we are left to attack each other like beta fish (hmmm beta...destiny...interesting). If I was religious, [i]I'd pray for you DeeJ[/i].
