Changes in Access Policy on Bungie.net
Hey there, Community.
At Bungie, we’re committed to making our website a safe, well-lit place for the community. As the engaged innkeepers of Bungie.net, we’ve learned that accountability is a great ingredient in the recipe for a healthy community. When a user has some personal investment associated with their account, they’re more likely to take pride in the way they communicate with other people.
Since its inception and throughout various evolutions, Bungie.net has served a community that shares a game. The game (Destiny, for example) is the thing we all have in common – the unifying element that brings us together in the first place. In order to ensure that the end-users who are accessing the public forums on Bungie.net have a greater interest in the quality of the conversation, we’re going to require that each account be linked to a Guardian with some player history. At current, that includes more than 99% of our active community.
Bungie.net accounts are free, easy to make, and easy to link to your playable character. Your access to the public forums is tied to your Guardian, but your account can still be used to enjoy many of the free social features that we provide. If you’re not playing Destiny, you’ll still have access to Private Groups.
If you’re a new user who is seeking support from us on the #Help forum, you can find some instructions on how to create and link an account here: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Article/12130
If you need assistance with creating your account, let us know here: https://www.bungie.net/en/Help/Troubleshoot?oid=13633
It is our hope that you’ll enjoy a long stay in our online home. Throw down some roots. Make some friends. Play some games. Be excellent to each other.
DeeJ, out.

2 RespuestasEditado por M1Silencer: 10/1/2015 3:37:04 PMBreathe in... Bungie, if you're going to simply cater to your current fan base, and not the community that evolves between the individuals who play your game, can you at least stop calling it Bungie.net and rather some variation of [insert current game here].net. This way we know that there's no room for communities on this site who have no ties to your current game. Additionally, maybe if you guys change the name, we can finally stop bullshitting ourselves into thinking some remnant of the old Bungie remains. Sure you guys are named Bungie, you talk like them, albeit a bit more robotically, and you have some of the same people on the team, but you guys lost something between 2012 and 2014, or maybe you sold it off willingly, and whatever it was has left the old community unsatisfied with what you have become. This just seems like another link in the long chain of disappointing actions and questionable decisions made by the new Bungivision. I find it interesting that as your new game gets better it would seem like you as a company get worse. And exhale.

[quote]Bungie.net accounts are free[/quote] Bullshit. You just said you need to buy destiny to access anything.

Am I to understand that the "way less than 1%" is supposed to be attributing the majority of the shady behavior you are trying to eliminate? Did #Destiny see [i]any[/i] improvement after you put this same policy into affect for the subforums that dealt more with your current game, a few months ago? I'm fairly sure the majority of the undesirables had access to those subforums already, because they were new users that came for Destiny. It's rare to see people that wish to do harm here persist for that long. The trolls of B.old were no longer lingering, the majority of trolls of last year weren't either. The people that stick around, are the people that form bonds with the other users and actually invest in the community. This policy only inhibits the long time members that chose to go along with this crazy ride that Bungie.net has been on for the past couple years, they endured all the bumps, twists, and turns only to be thrown off at the end. "Come for the stats, stay for the dudes."

18 RespuestasI just realized that new customers won't be able to ask questions on the game's official forum. This is priceless.

"Pfft, Halo? -blam!- that game and the people who played it. Its about Destiny now." - Bungie
-
Well this is dumb I'm not one of the 1% but this isn't cool this is limiting the community it's like when 343 had map restrictions on Halo 4
-
60 RespuestasThis is outrageous. It's essentially a massive middle finger to all your old fans who made you what you are today. Is that what Bungie is all about now? Sucker people into buying your products, then, after having their loyalty and support for years, cut them off, isolate them, and pretend like everything they did means nothing? This is not how you treat your fans. Purse, out.

[quote]that includes more than 99% of our active community.[/quote] You're full of shit, pegboy.

[quote] If you’re not playing Destiny, you’ll still have access to Private Groups. [/quote] This is the only important part there.

Also, I don't even know why you posted this in Community. Achronos said the decision was made with the majority in mind, so why not go tell the majority about this update? The people who still pop in to your neglected Community forum for actual Bungie Community stuff aren't the users you had in mind. I doubt any of that 99% that actually are "legion" will bother to read past the first paragraph.

1 RespuestaDeeJ I sure am glad that you went ahead and told me you wanted to rip everyone a new one instead of just doing it out of the blue, makes it a lot less painful when I know when to grit my teeth. Seriously though, what a pestering crock of shit. And that's coming from someone with a Guardian linked. I bet you're going to do this with each subsequent Destiny game too aren't you? Well I guess you can shoot off a PM to Daz real quick and let him know he no longer needs to shadow ban me cause you're doing a great job at telling any individual user that doesn't care about your current game to piss off.

I've been here a while, coming up on 6 years soon. This... this is probably the biggest upset for me and a lot of other people on the #offtopic forums. Really just sad to ditch the old community like that. Met some great people back in the golden days, shame to see them go
-
The header for the community forums need to be updated too "Join the Bungie Community (for $60+)"
-
1 RespuestaDeej. If you're going to take all the offtopic members off of the forums, at least change it from bungie.net to destiny.com and then ban everyone who hasn't ever played it. So we know you're going to really leave the community behind. Sincerely, f[b]u[/b]ck yourself
