We need something new and/or exciting around here
B.net is a great place. I've been around for a while now and I've seen lots of things and taken part in a lot of events. But ever since the whole update to this new bright white B.net, something has just seemed to be missing. I'm sure I'm not the only one. And those of you who have no idea what I'm talking about, I assure you that community-wise, this place has seen better days.
But my problem is that I can't quite put my finger on what it is.
Maybe it's the lack of a ranking/title/status system. Maybe groups could use some work. Maybe it's the lack of spotlights and interviews. Whatever it may be, I kind of miss the old feel to this place. The #Offtopic can be enjoyable. Discussions are a lot more loose and we can talk about a lot of things that we would never be able to talk about beforehand unless it was in The Black Chapter. I'd like to find ways to become more involved. Whether it's a new and growing group (I've been considering making a new one myself) or just playing some community games.
Whatever it is, this place could use a dose of some new or exciting.

It is the lack of everything that made B.old great. -Real-enforced rules -No apathetic leadership -A sense of an actual Community -Way more Bungie involvement -NO repeat threads -Being able to post an opinion without new 6-7 randoms thinking it's ok to scream profanity laced tirades at you in disagreement. Really, Coke is better than Pepsi! -[i][b][u]NO SPAM ALLOWED[/i][/b][/u] -No 'face' posts -No evading the -blam!- filter -The black background -Private Groups meant something -Member Title/Forum Rank Bars (but we can't have these because the PS crowd would feel inferior. BOO HOO!) -117 other things But then again, these forums aren't what they are in business for. They make money on making and selling games. So it's doubtful we will ever see the likes of what we had here on B.old again, ever. It's a damn shame. But be glad that you were a part of something that was in it's own way special, and why so many of us now displaced B.net veterans are still here.
