Beginnings?

Where did you come from? Where did your b.net personality get its origins? Let us know! Me? I was a humble desticle, when I discovered #offtopic. I thought RP was stupid, and thought destiny was amazing. But now I am the anti-desticle-RP-loving-bee-government Quiggles that some of you may know. Let us all know your b.net origin story

  • I didn't get Xbox Live til my Senior year in High School in 2012. I was a huge fan of Halo 3 so I pretty much played that game exclusively. Then I found out you could link your gamertag by making an account here (I browsed the forums for years but never posted). So I made an account and posted in the Halo 3 forum. Site updated and I was excited for Destiny. It launched and I was disappointed, so I'd easily say I'm a Floodian and not a Desticle. I'm pretty much known for being a very devout Christian who likes the Elites from Halo, but also extremely friendly. Plus everyone assumes my favorite song is "Rocketman" by Elton John. Great song, but not my top one.

    My B.Net personality is the same as my IRL personality. Except I actually say(type) the dumb/troll thoughts I have that I wouldn't actually say in a real conversation. I joined in 2007, a few months before Halo 3. I was a big Halo 2 fan and had reading the weekly update for months before. Finally decided to make the leap to join the forum. (first forum I ever joined. I was 14.) And here I am, almost 8 years later. Getting in arguments with 13 years old on the internet. Living the dream.

    Let's see. Saw the app, thought hey, sounds coolio, y'know. Then I saw forums. Yeah, sounds fun. Then I searched all of the sections till I hit offtopic, by far the best. I ran into the Floodzone bar, my first RP place. I've been a bartender there for a long time (6months, my whole b.net career). Then I stuck to it, defended my home. Some asshole surrounded our place with tanks, but I took care of them. Anything to defend my home. I met Quiggs, UlcaM, N7, Jams, Julie, DethByWoodchuck, FeelGood, Fletch, Bio, Whitigoh (oh the drinks she stole...)and Agent M, a wandering guy just learning the ropes. I met him before I heard of the dojo, but could never find it. Then, I found my new home, the dojo. It was awesome, times I'll never forget. Fighting, wills clashing, it was a giant free-for-all. To a normal person, it was chaos, but we knew. We knew it was a place where shit went down, the place you need to be. It was home, all over again. Demons attacked, that's how Agent M joined the team, and we defended it. Met many new people there, my first duel, Phoenix, was a good lesson. Dinorush, Tiger, Sleekthrone, Mall, Sharky, Pants, Felix, Tamefrog, June, The last mage (hell naw, I'm a mage too bud), Noble, Shihan (aka Ninja), Tubbs, Sal, Zane, Hemming Clan, and JJ. All only a portion of people who I met with. It was a huge loss to me when it fell, because through that, I met all you guys. So now I'm here, only cuz you guys are here, and wherever you go, I'm there. Since you guys are awesome, I mean, like, not assholes like everyone else. You all care enough to do stuff, and support my quests (back in the Dojo days, soon starting em up again though, since some enjoyed them very much). I loved making Fire Emblem based storylines, my character is realistic to me as well, and I just feel like I belong here. Met soooooo many more people here too. Jeremiah, Cal, Htrooper, Ginger, Shadlezz, Elder, Smurph, Monty, Brim, Enthous, Jenny, Emma, Freddy, Wolfy, and Winston, everyone I met here. You guys, are like, my fam #3. You'll always have that place in my heart, since you were here for me. Gr. 8 was a -blam!-ing huge emotional roller coaster for me, depression hits, one after another, I finally started to see clearly. See who really was and were, my friends. And you were here for me through the whole process. Apparently I'm mature for my age, I know I'm smart, and that the way I express myself is in a mature way, so that my friends, who aren't so, can't see what I'm going through, which really hurts me too. But herro, I got you guys. And just know, even though I can be a complete dumbass, and I don't compliment (cuz it's physically impossible, I -blam!- up every time), doesn't mean I don't care. It's cuz I do care, I'm just being me around you guys. So yeah, keep it up, doing swell m80s. You've lifted me up more times than I've fallen down, and I don't know how to repay you. So really, thanks guys.

    • Origins: First stage: I almost turned into a desticle, seeing the new game made from bungie. Hung around #Destiny for some time until I found #Offtopic. Second stage: My first RP thread was a zombie-themed thread. Met Biosmiley, Ktan and other people. I may be older than the other people. I made a lot of ideas for that thread, and I enjoyed it a lot. Third stage: The Thread fell, some time after becoming a DM. I was lost like a child in the streets, but I managed to hold out by going into threads and replying to them, like the other people were. What happened to the old times? Fourth stage: I went to the flood zone bar, and got a job there and stuff. RP was great, and also got a job for a floodian checkpoint RP. Had lots of fun sniping desticles. Fifth stage: My account is almost a year old now. Things changed a lot, most of the people I knew turned in half-desticles. I came to Remnants RP, and most of you know how I went along. I, Tame, am a changed man. And I will become A oldfoman in another 2 years...

    • Let me see.... I can into this website around the reach release. From there j would post on Lore threads and such, I was only 10, and that is where I got into lore. Around the Mid-Reach days, I stopped posting for a long time, actually, until Destiny came out. I got it for my birthday.... And was disappointed after the first 3 days. Nonetheless, I had gotten the app and realized that I could access the forum. There, I found Lord of Admirals' Halo 2014 Q & A thread, which was like a paradise for me because so. Much. Lore. After that, I braces the #Destiny and found a thread known as Exotic Weapon ideas. I went into this thread, and here I met Dinorush and Cobalt Phoenix, I didn't know they RP'd at the time, I just replied to their comments on my weapons. Anyways, I eventually drifted into the place known as The FloodZone, which was my first attempt at RP. My name being a freelancer-inspired name(You all know who Agent Missouri is), Fletch promptly kicked me in the dick and speared my in the leg. Either way, I eventually stopped getting attacked, and managed to start RP'ing there. I never got into too many fights. But then, I met N7Sentinel60, I forgot how, but we got into a fight in the first day we met and the fight was broken up by UlcaM. There, I met Alondite, the bartender. He was doing some stuff that seemed odd to me and I followed, where Alondite found something that caused numerous monsters to attack the Dojo. I felt obliged to help, and in that fight, I met Jams, UltimateRobber*Cringes*, and pretty much everyone else from the Dojo around the 20k mark. From there, I RP'd almost every day.

      • Well, lemme think. I tried joining up around late Reach days, which is also when I got XBL, I know for sure before Halo 4 released I had tried. I came because of the custom banner things you can get, along with several extra things and a daily challenge. I was a noob to the site, and didn't have a clue how to set it up right, so it ended up not working out an I left for a long time. LONG time. I think I only ever got on forums twice if at all. So fast forward to Pre-Destiny beta, someone told me about the thing (User testing) and it's exactly what I was looking for. By that point I was a bit smarter, and breezed through making a new account. Ended up not doing much because I didn't know there was an app at the time. But Destiny Beta is what got me on the site I guess. And then I started using it, the app, and regularly frequented offtopic as an unknown and slightly naive user obsessed with making people not mad at me. Kek. Eventually I got the name "That Pink Ranger" which came from an inside joke with an old friend I lost shortly after using it as my name. "Ranger" is a reference to Reach's elite armor type, not the TV show. At some point during my days in offtopic I came along to The Ebon Hawk Hotel, an RP thread. That's where RPing for me started. Revan, who is still lurking in TBJ I think, didnt manage the thread though. In fact; twice he "left" the thread as a publicity stunt, making several participants panic. By the second time however, Alex (AKA Ben, or A2) made the madhouse thread. Most members switched over to it. We spent ages there, that was sort of RRP members golden age. People like Julie, Fen, Alex, Noble, and a few others were from the first thread. After madhouse burned down, we looked for the next, but it was so abrupt nobody had a plan and nobody led the group anywhere. Revan, who was mostly a lurker in madhouse, decided to invite everyone to an RP group, like this one, with the promises of good leadership and fair admins. It didn't sit well with me: He didn't lead before, in fact he was the problem most of the time, and he had many admin-worthy people in a group with none of the promised admins. At the time I started thinking he was going to lead us into a ditch, honestly, and I was not planning on letting it happen. I kept pushing for someone, Alex particularly, to make their own group. Someone I know could lead well is what I wanted. He eventually talked me into doing it, which he had told me to do for a long time, I had refused previous times because I didn't think I could lead well. In the end I made Remnants RP to get everyone together. There is a lot of history, a lot of things people didn't see even, that happened there. That's really how it started for me, I guess.

        • Hmm... let me think. I got dragged into this site around the time when destiny came out. I knew the site existed when Reach came out but I was never interested in checking it out. Then a friend told me about the app and then I joined as a distraction from irl stuff. One of the first threads I was in was Ktan's space zombie thread. I'm sure a few of you remember it. Meet some cool people there and that's really where I got interested in RP and also started posting more in offtopid. Prior to that I just mainly lurked around. One of the first members I meet was Revan and so when I found out he was making the Hawk, I happily joined up with. Meet some other users such as: Noble, Julie, Emma, and Alex. That's when I really developed my personality for b.net. I was playing DAI at the time and so I decided to make myself after the main antagonist of that game. A lot of fun was had during the span of that thread and I was really said when it got taken down. It all would have ended there if Alex hadn't picked up the pieces and made the Madhouse.

          • I came here a bit after Halo 4 released. My original name was Silenwolf but I'm not very silent so I became OddBallWolf. I basically never used this account, then Destiny released and I started using it.

            I was playing Battlefield 4, when i heard there is an Alpha for a game called Destiny,I said what the heck I'll try it, I did I liked it, then the Beta came out where I made all 3 classes to see which is better. When the game released in heard there was an App I downloaded I stayed in destiny forums, until I found off topic the weirdest, most cringe place on the Internet. came here from destiny, I went to destiny topics like 2 or 3 times, after that the flood took my soul, and since then I'm looking for it. But I like it I met a lot of cool, and nice people, and some backstabbers too, the first person that became my friend was Faust then Otilia, and grubby, I like it here its cosy, and warm, and some people feel like family. Some might know me by my other username Sebastian Markov, I liked to RP it's fun from time to time. I started RPing in the Dojo, it was an interesting place, so I hoped in. Then I joined my first group LLC (yup that nuked place ) there I met the craziest,weirdest people in my life . I played Destiny since the Alpha on PS4, but I play it on xbox one now me and couple of my friends made a group The Unwanted G horns. We -blam!- around from time to time, and of course me and the founder been friends for like a year now, he is cool. Now I'm lurking in off topic and sometimes post, but I mainly just talk in groups. Soo this is some of my story I guess .

          • I was on #Destiny and when I couldn't find a raid team, I checked out off-topic and found RP. I thought it would be stupid, but it's actually pretty damn fun. Before RP, I just kinda commented on random shit in off-topic.
