I'd rather them be super focused on fixing the game than meeting a forum post quota. Now if we could just fix PvP for good and get rid of this stupid shotgun/hc meta

I hope they actually listen instead of overpowering game breaking balanced continue to cause a lot of pent up tension toward certain things especially right now with hand cannons

You want their attention be politically correct or say the truth about something. They will come find you lol

Agreed. I don’t use Reddit or Twitter. Not saying people like me should be catered to, but you’d think Bungie would use their own website to announce missing patch notes, server updates, etc.

This may be all super hypocritical and ironic- but no worries! I remember something my mom used to tell lil me before I left for elementary school in the mornings. “Don’t be stupid! Embrace the Suck!” I just think that sometimes you gotta roll with the punches. Yeah people can be aggravating, but we’re all human right? So, we’re all fallible beings that make mistakes. There’s probably been times where we have been aggravating ourselves (I know I have been). “Don’t be stupid!” I think my good ol’ mother was trying to tell me to just not do dumb shit, ya know? Don’t start fights. Don’t put forks in the electric outlet- stuff like that. Pretty simple I think. Most of us aren’t trying to be stupid, but sometimes we just need to take a few steps back and relax. There’s no need to rush. No need to bite back at people that try to bite at you. Just keep swingin in your metaphysical hammock and flip them off while you read “Common Sense for Dummies”. Or maybe don’t flip them off. Just hangout in the hammock lmao. Don’t give heed onto the weirdos who want a little chaos. Don’t give them that attention, just chill and let them do their thing. Cuz if everyone ignored them and let them do their thing, no one would be upset or anything cuz we’d be ignoring them. See where I’m getting at? Just…shoot straight and true. You’ll avoid all the obstacles and won’t need to worry about a lucky ricochet to get you out of a weird angle you shot yourself into. If you don’t mess with stupid, then the stupid can’t mess with you. Kinda why I just don’t have social media. Most of it is weird anyway. “Embrace the Suck!” Before you ask- no, this isn’t a sexual reference lol. My momma was just telling me that life already sucks, so just roll with it. If you screw up, own it and move on. Don’t dwell on it. Don’t try and take it back. What is done, is done. So get over yourself and apologies to the peeps you need to apologies to. Most people tend to lean towards other people who show a little humility every now and then. Like I said above, we’re all human (mostly) and all imperfect beings. There’s no need to point out other people’s flaws and be all weird and judgy when we know we aren’t perfect either. Maybe that was a little hypocritical of me to say, because I know I’m far from perfection too, but I’m going to work at it the best I can. Because I prefer happiness instead of gripes. And nothin makes the gripes better than spreading it around- ya know? Im flawed!! And you know what? I’m OK with it because that means there’s room for me to grow. There’s always room to grow, so keep growing, damn it! Don’t shrivel up into a wimpy lil shrub! Just worry about you. You can’t control other people so just learn to forgive and forget- and better yet, learn from their mistakes and move forward. I hope I got through to someone here.

Honestly, do yourself a favor and start caring a whole lot less. If they don't care, do the same. Why should you spend much of your energy into something they don't invest in?

Well "we're listening" did become a meme. So it's either they speak only when they have confirmed info, or they just do that again. Would it be nice if there was more communication and actual change? Sure. But it's been proven over the past 6 years that that's not happening. So whatever.

[quote]Is it just me, or does it really bother anyone else that we hardly ever see this tag on forum threads? Looking through the community manager's Bungie activity, it seems to show we get a response maybe once a month, if we're lucky. I know Cozmo is a reddit guy, and DMG is a Twitter guy... Could we maybe get a forum guy/girl? This app and forum were pushed as an integral part of the game experience and it feels like it just rots away, in neglect. It's frustrating having to go to third party websites to try and chase information or responses from devs/cm's down. Could we please see your official area get some love, or at least some attention? At this point it seems like the forum is just the red headed step child, where everyone misbehaves in hopes of getting noticed so they'll get ANY kind of attention. It's really sad. The lack of positive interactions only entrenches this behavior. Trust me, I get that dealing with pissed off people is terrible. I also understand that some people can't tell the difference between feedback, and curses, and threats. I know there's not always going to be answers to our questions or feedback, particularly when it's the same topic of discussion over and over. However, I genuinely believe that without any form of positive and frequent interaction from the people who we're supposed to be looking to for communication, this community will continue to become more and more virulent.[/quote] The forums have been a toxic cesspool of negativity for so long now, they were rightfully abandoned. They keep em active just so the saltiest of salaries have somewhere to hang out

Honestly this community can be, and is very very toxic. I don’t understand when people be like “why doesn’t bungie communicate with the community”. I mean, do you not see these forum posts? Yeah some people slip by with constructive criticism, but a lot of forum posts tend to get a little personal. Like people real life have issues and trouble with delivering solid, constructive criticism.

Bungie’s SOP: maintain radio silence Cue: <crickets > ‘Twas ever thus. SMH 🤨 Cheers! MDGA
