What a crock. I think the reason I spend hours a day, offline, planning, scheduling resolving issues, implementing award systems and planning tournaments isn't so I can interact with 200 ppl per day. It isn't so I can feel special about myself, I have 2 beautiful sons and an even more beautiful wife for that. It's so when these members that have been gone for a while due to work, personal life shît or sheer Destiny drought boredom do come back around they still have a home to go to. When a guy/gal that's been out for a while pops up in our Discord, they're not met with scorn or penalties. They don't have to sign back up to anything. They say "Hey ya'll! Good to see you! It's been a while. Can someone help me with a NF?" And we do. While we do, we catch up. "How have you been, how's the ole lady, oh yeah the crucible has changed dramatically again". It happens everyday. People cycle into and out of Destiny constantly. That's my biggest problem here. For all the ppl that say "you only play with 5 different ppl" well, yeah, with me that makes 6 and that's a full group. But it changes everyday. I don't have deep personal connections with probably 50% of our members. Lots of those signed up and never said a word. We'll have to clean out the division rosters soon, Kole. But the point I'm making is that the other 50% I do know. Ive spoken to at length, gamed with, get phone calls regularly from, know their spouses names or met them in public and gave em a big ole hug and and shared a beer with. The 1000000000 members clans are ridiculous. It's easy not to give a shît about someone if you've never met them and just peace em out of the roster to open a space for an active player, but for the clans that are just over the limit like ourselves and some of the others in this thread, this is shit. Absolute shit. At this point it feels like Bungie is just using the clans that have built these personal connections to bridge their piss poor in game matchmaking system at the expense of other players' months or even years of work at establishing a home and a place to play video games with friends. and thats exactly what we are and thats exactly what we prove to our members everyday. Rant probably not over.
