There isn't enough Elitism in the community
I've found recently that; as I suppose the title would suggest, there is a lack of contempt for our fellow members - particularly contempt that in my opinion should be aimed towards those who don't have blue title bars, or indeed any well aged and matured titled bars. I've been here for more than 7 years and in all my time i've never seen such a lack of apparent loathing and disdain for the population of Bungie regulars by those, who like me should know better.
We should know better, because we are better. I'm quite frankly tired of this seemingly self replicating new found appreciation for those, who are quite frankly beneath us. It, to me is quite unfathomable that in this day and age we post in a forum with such tolerance and understanding. There are safe havens, only a few in number I might add that may appreciate this view - though it is my belief that the generation to which i belong, the generation that made Bnet what it is, is drifting into the abyss.
Who among you is capable of stepping up to the plate? Who among you has the know how to stop this most precious of cultures from disappearing entirely from our beloved forums. If we lose this, we lose our identity. Our community, to dust.

Anything, at least.[/quote] Deej's teasing has been much more apparent recently, and much more suggestive of something to come in the near future...

The blue bar is the best bar. Mine ran away, though. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] goldhawk We should know better, because we are better.[/quote] This is going in my signature right now.

In order to shake this place up a little, I'll need a case of Sam Adams Winter Lager, a banana, and a legion of your finest Stormtroopers. (They won't be coming back.)

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] OMARRCHR (especially the Mythic Members)[/quote] The irony is not lost on me. A little elitism in a thread about elitism? No one gets bored like a Mythic. Eh?

Am I going insane or was all the text here blue for a moment?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Grizzwizz Someone should make a group where only Mythic Members can join. [i]Oh wait...[/i][/quote] I like the group's theme song.

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] RighteousTyrant [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] EAGLES5 All great communities has a working "class" system. If the normal members would only see us as the betters then maybe there is hope for bungie.[/quote]Problem is '08s and people like OP undermining our superiority with -blam!- posting, no?[/quote]Indeed. The real problem here is people assuming just because they're mythic members and members of Mythic Members that they're members to be looked up to. There are whole strata of class above that.

The '08s are the legends, just look at some of the great mythics of '08, look at what they have done for the community! :P[/quote] Yeah! 08's FTW! Me and you nearly have the same join date by the way...[/quote]Holy smokes! Well, I haven't seen you before. Always a pleasure to meet another '08 Mythic :)[/quote] Haha you wouldn't, I unintentionally have some kind of stealth cloak in how nobodies recognises me on these forums. I've been here for ages dammit! XD
