Is the Community Dead?
What do you think, community? Despite the best efforts of the powers that be, #community is still largely overrun by LFG, nerf-this-buff-that, Jellyhorns, and all else Destiny. I know some people still post regularly, some are still hunkered down in the private groups they fled to after the site redesign and/or Destiny launch, and some have jumped ship entirely.
Has the community forum lost its purpose, or has it simply hit a rough patch in the wake of two rather turbulent paradigm shifts?

It's not dead, but it's nowhere near active (alive). The main reason I could think of is that half of the forum is inaccessible to people who don't have Destiny, which kind of promotes a bit of elitism, now that I think about it. Groups are barely keeping the site afloat, unless the entire site is allowed to be accessible to people who don't own Destiny. Come on, I'm not going to log out of this account just to go on my Destiny account just to post in those forums. I'm not willing to take those many steps because I could simply talk to my friends in my group rather than responding to questions that some Destiny players have. Call me greedy, but I'd rather have communication with my friends than talk on a dying forum.
