[quote]We're adding Matchmaking to the Wish List thread to acknowledge the request that has been made by many of you. You have my personal assurances that the design teams know you want it. They've seen the conversation.[/quote] Thanks to the countless Guardians who took time to push the issue when Bungie decided to start removing them from Trending and Highest Rated tabs, as well as Forbes magazine taking up the banner. [quote]My comments about using your time here to make friends and play games were an attempt to provide ideas for immediate solutions to the issue of needing people to play with. I'm not here to invalidate anyone's opinion, but I do have my own experiences with with building teams to play games together. If I could move one of you closer to taking matchmaking into your own hands, it would be worth the scorn.[/quote] If you wanted to move one of us closer to taking matchmaking into our own hands, you were more than welcome to discuss it with us rather than drop your "Philosophy" and leave. We've all still been here the last week and a half discussing it. I don't remember you coming back and trying to "move" any of us. [quote]As for deliberate forum censorship on the part of anyone at Bungie? I can guarantee that these things are not happening. The algorithms that sort forum topics do their own thing. The only time we influence that is when one of you is violating the code of conduct.[/quote] You know, it's actually pretty sad. You come on here (because national press joined the discussion) to offer this olive branch and then proceed to insult everyone's intelligence. Do you really have that low an opinion of us all and think we're that stupid?

Many were at the top of all 3 tabs when pulled. I find it not only despicable, but abhorrent that you are going to come onto the forum and tell everyone that a computer algorithm arbitrarily removed all these posts [b]completely[/b] from those two tabs. You sir, owe every single one of the Guardians listed above an apology as well as any who read the deceit you posted above. If anyone wants to see what our CM is truly is about, just take 15-20 minutes to scroll through the 10,000 or so posts under the "Highest Rated" tab and see how many of these you can find. All we wanted was to be heard and to express our opinions fairly and rationally on these forums. This all could have been avoided a week ago with 2 different sentences. Now you couldn't even post this without another affront. We've seen your eyes and teeth. We'll be watching. Thank you to all the Guardians listed above and the ones I know I missed on the list as well as the hundreds who have been so supportive in this cause. None of this would have happened without the thousands of bumps and likes. You're all amazing. Here's hoping for a bright Destiny future. #bumpfortruth
