Pie thread needs to go! Its setting a bad example and encouraging spam!
I dont know how many people have noticed this useless thread in the flood but I speak for alot of people when I say that thing needs to get locked,deleted and nuked out of the flood forum. Lets see why it needs to go Shall we? It's a pointless thread that encourages the mindless people in the flood forum to spam , the thread itself is spam itself , just because an employee that bypasses the profanity filter numerous times made it and it was one of the first threads ever made [b] DOES NOT [/b] mean that it can just get away with breaking a rule almost everyone knows about. Ninjas can't do anything about it because it [b] has [/b] been locked before but it has been reopened for NO PURPOSE WHATSO EVER! I thought Bungie.net was a place where you can have intelligent discussions with a calm community. Clearly this thread [b] COMPLETELY [/b] defies that.
Heres another reason It should get locked.
A member in the flood goes and reads the rules. He notices the NO CAPS LOCK RULE. Him being a good civil person says...." Okay no caps " he then notices that thread where multiple rules are broken. He notices that then creates a thread with caps and spams in it. What happens to him? He gets banned. What happens to the ninja who banned him? They get yelled at because the user is asking why that thread is able to stay up and why they were banned? What is the ninja supposed to say? " Oh hes an employee so he gets away with it. " NO thats not how it works I know the motto " You have no rights play nice " but this goes beyond that! Shoulden't the rules mean [b] EVERYONE [/b] has to follow them? Is that not what rules are? If people want to spam go to 4chan for christ sake keep that garbage out of here!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Anto Avengerr [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Recon Number 54 It is coming up on its one year anniversary. I think that might be a good time to put it to rest. Of course, I have (both publicly and privately) challenged drabominable to try to come up with an equally mythic and yet still very zen topic to replace it. Is he up for the challenge? I don't know. Apparently (based on his replies) he thinks that he has months and months before the pie thread is a year old.[/quote] So what your saying is there is a good chance that thread is going to go down. But once it has another thread will be brought up that will do the same thing the Pie thread has been doing?[/quote] I am saying that when it reaches a year, the pie may be stale. It could end up closed and well remembered (both fondly and not-so-fondly) by many. As to a new, different, or other topic from drabominable? He's more than capable of making/creating any thread that he likes. If it generates as much interest, conversation, ire, love, frustration, and enjoyment as the pie thread? He's then 2 for 2.
