I've gone by many names here, too many to list. Most of them are identities I no longer want to be associated with, since they reflect a person I no longer want to be. So I've left that past behind.
But I have been a member of this forum for ages. I remember hopping in during the days of Halo 3. I've been on a lot of forums and bungie.net was by far one of the funniest, zaniest communities I've been a part of. It had a little bit of everything. It had humor, arguments, serious exchanges. It had inside jokes, artists, writers, and thinkers alike.
There were wars between forums, Halo theories, colorful personalities like Lord Snakie and Spartan Ken. Bungie employees would actually interact with the community.
Now...this place feels like a graveyard. I hope this changes. It probably won't though.
The moderation of this place reminds me more of a children's game than a forum. Most people who want to have actual, meaningful conversations moved to places more conducive to conversations. I'm literally only here because I can't be bothered to post on actual social medias.
I can't speak of the days before this place became a carcass, I'm startlingly new to Offtopic comparably. Only came around during the pandemic, and 'fore that, I was much too young to have anything remotely worth saying. But somehow I still am nearly nostalgic for the old ages, when this place and others would be more like a community and less like a capsized ship with a few stragglers hanging on.
Oh well, I guess.
[spoiler]I realize after writing most of this that it's not actually worth all that much. Perhaps I just really wanted to say something, despite how many times it's been said in the past. More likely, it's late and the pain meds are kicking in again. It's a damn shame.[/spoiler]
