I don't think Bungie's forums are any less polluted than any other game or franchise forums, or ANY forum on ANY subject for that matter. This forum just represents a microcosm of the Internet community as a whole (not a "hole" or a "whore" you filthy buggers). Sadly human ugliness and malice is found everywhere, and the Internet gives these sad and pathetic people a place to be themselves. Don't give in to them. Personally, I'm a very positive person, who always tries to look for the good in people and I give everyone a chance at proving themselves. As my mother taught me, I never reply negatively to any post, no matter how much it may anger or upset me. It's not worth it. That offensive post is not worth it. I just move onto the next thread and chalk up their negativity to something missing in their lives; loneliness, insecurity, being bullied or ostracized, or any number of sad and/or depressing reasons. Some people just have sad lives, and need an outlet for their anger or frustration. Wow, this went on longer than I first imagined. I apologize. I must have been holding this in for some time. At any rate, ignore the negative posts and support the positive ones. You're not alone. And to those negative posters, you're not alone either, and I hope that you eventually find a reason to be happy and change your ways. Life is too short to always be negative and unhappy. Enjoy it while you can. And if you're idea of "fun" is being negative, you're just proving my point. But it's not too late for you. Good luck to you all. And come 9/9, good hunting!
