Whiners About Forum Changes Need to Chill

Oh Children of Bungie why do you grumble so against the creator? Have you forgotten already the wonders of Bungie and how they've delivered us (and themselves) from the tyranny of Microsoft? They have revealed to us a Land of Milk and Honey; a Promise Land called Destiny. However, the journey to this place has not been easy but is like wandering through a desert. We do not fully grasp where we are going and have been asked to have faith in our guides. We have experienced deprivations and hardships, such as radical website and forum changes. However, I would encourage everyone to have patience (as many of you have) as these changes are made since we do not understand the full scope of what is taking place. We see how forum changes affect our interactions with each other but have no understanding of how they will impact our overall experience in Destiny. I am confident Bungie has a comprehensive vision on how on all these components will make Destiny an amazing universe, and they value the community they have on the forums. The changes that have been made may seem limiting or like a regression for now but only because we probably have access to a fraction of what this platform can do. Bungie, in it's great wisdom, has given us the opportunity to gradually transition to this new platform and gain a comprehension of how it works. They could quite easily develop these changes behind the scenes and drop it two weeks before launch, but they know that thrusting us into such a sudden change would lead to chaos and confusion. Bungie's process allows us to help them work out the bugs and gives the community the ability to express our opinion on changes, all while they weigh it's impact on the integration of elements still unrevealed or in development. There are certainly things about the old forum I liked, and I will be voicing my opinion to the powers to be about it. There is nothing wrong with feeling frustration about changes but it should be tempered with the knowledge that we do not understand the entire picture yet. It sucks being in wasteland, no getting around that, but Bungie has promised us greater things, you might say a metaphorical Promise Land. We are simply on the journey to get there. I would much rather live in the hope of making it to such a place, rather than dwelling in bitterness on what I left behind.

  • I thought about reading all of that and then decided it wasn't worth the time, much easier just to reply to the topic. Anyways, people are going to have different opinions. If you don't like an opinion that's fine but don't make a thread telling people to chill. As for the new layout of site... It blows dick, massive dick at that. Activity has slowed to a crawl around the board and to be quite honest I have lost interest. I hope Bungie's next game will relight that fire I once had for this community.
