jndu, first of all, your sig rocks. You are the first person ive ever known (or in this case - read) that has read Ender's Game. It actually reminds me of Halo, the book. Great read, both of them. OK - now that ive stopped marketing for books, down to what i really started this post for - to answer some of your questions. ~The circle at the upper left hand corner - its job is to look pretty. But i agree, no matter how awesome it looks, it does get annoying and gets in the way. As a suggestion to the Bungie team, pin it to the upper banner. ~About the gamertag, I think that was (or is now that we have the [b]NEW[/b] b.net) an option when setting up your account as a b.net member. Try clicking on "My Settings" or "My Profile" at the top. When you are logged in, it is displayed under "Welcome jndu". ~You mentioned how the toolbar at the bottom (games, stats, community, etc.) sometimes sticks. I have high speed DSL and it never sticks. When I went to a friends house, he had dial-up and it stuck like nerd's hand to an Xbox controller (I guess in that case I would be classified as a Grade A nerd). I don't know what your connection speed is (though you may have broadband based on your allusion in your post - if you do, im typing pointless words and am wasting characters), but that would be my best guess as to the cause of your "sticking" problem. ~I can't answer or help you on any other of your comments, because I don't work for Bungie, only unnoficially. If I did, I could make those changes right now and wouldn't be typing this. [Edited on 4/13/2004 2:08:23 PM]
