No.
The last thing we need is a bunch of whiny salt miners to fill the place. If you want a forum filled with hundreds of people, go to Reddit or something.
We’re a smaller community, yes, but that’s not a bad thing. We all know and recognize eachother (for the most part). We’re like an actual tight-knit community, rather than an anonymous ocean of ambiguous faces.
That’s nice.
Besides, all that’s going to happen with this plan is a bunch of people are going to come down here, try talking about their Destiny characters, get mad when they’re told they can’t, most of them will just leave, one or two of them will throw a fit and then we’ll have an Otter situation on our hands.
Or a Cobalt situation, since some of you newer folks might not know who Otter is.

Salt miners? By god where is your grit son?? Do you think we’d allow ANYONE to mine our tears??? [b]WE[/b] are the ones who set the dynamite; [b]WE[/b] are the ones who swing the pickaxe. The only salt will be the salt we collect!!! And REDDIT?!?!! I have not been here 8 long years and watched my brothers fall one by one to leave for a place like REDDIT. #OffTopic is HOME and it always will be. Floodian blood runs through my BODY. What leads you to believe this place can’t be just as tight with a wave of new blood as well??? With some newfoman scoundrels scurrying about to do our bidding? Hmmmmm? We won’t live forever you know. Father time will come to knock on our door one day too. And what legacy will we have left behind? HMMMM? THE LEGACY OF SOME FAILURES? WHOSE HEARTS WERE FORGED OF A SOFT GELATINOUS MATERIAL RATHER THAN STONE?????? I think the -blam!- not. We will stare into the depths of hell and wade through the corpses of our fellow flood forms until we reach the promised land I have laid before you. And what supposed “tight-knit” community would have over half its members vote to be bystanders to its demise????? Not one I’ve ever encountered son. And sonny what in the hell makes you believe we’d just allow them to waltz in here all willy nilly talking about their shitty Destiny characters?? BY GOD SONNY YOU CANT GO TO WAR IF YOU DONT SIT YOUR ASS THROUGH BOOT CAMP FIRST. DID YA EVEN READ THE DAMN POST? WE WILL MAKE THEM ONE OF US! ONE. OF. US! ONE. OF. US! ONE. OF. US! ONE. OF. US! Your heart is in the right place my boy but you are misguided. You need to look at the bigger picture. We are not some small community on the corner of the internet. We are one of the greatest communities to ever grace the face of this damned cyberspace baby. We need to make sure that torch is passed on before its too damn late. And I say the time is now.

Fair enough. I’ve got gripes with this place myself, but I’d still rather be a part of a small forum like this than somewhere with a ton of people.

I only have one safe space and that is my trusty cardboard box.
