How did you find your way to Bungie.net?
For all of the differences people in our community can have, we all share on thing in common. We're all on Bungie.net, whether through the website or the app. So, what's your story on how you got here?
Mine is pretty simple. In July 2006, my brother and I went halfsies in on an XBox 360, and the first game we played online was Call of Duty 2. The second, once we figured out how to enable online play for backwards-compatible games, was Halo 2. After playing for about a month, my brother told me about a website that tracked your stats and games. I started checking it out, found it easier to access them if I made an account and linked my gamertag, and I've been here ever since.

After purchasing and playing Halo 2 I wanted to see the Leader Boards. Anyone else remember those? Yeah they were eventually taking down due to cheaters and offensive clan names. Anyway, I wanted to see my stats. I thought it was the coolest thing to play a game and see my in-depth stats a few seconds later on B.net, along with any of my friends stats too! After a few months time, I discovered the forums because, I wanted to participate in the Weekly Updates so I made an account. on March 3rd 2005. And here I am 10 years later.
