What game brought you to this site? Halo? Marathon? Destiny?
Well, if you didn't play one of those(DESTINY) all your past invested time on this forum is worth nothing. People like Das Boot and Mad Max(even if you don't like them) are active members and have been for years! There are many many more. Why would they not be able to post on the forum over a new account that's played destiny one time. HOW DOES THAT SOLVE ANYTHING?
Repost and like until this is fixed, thanks. Thoughts?
Tl;dr 7+ years on our forum, but you didnt fork out $60 for our new game? BANNED.

Edited by UndeadGrizzly: 9/30/2015 7:36:36 PMI have no opinion on this situation, but I legitimately want to ask this. Why do users make alts? I understand one guy does it to spam nsfw MLP images for whatever reason, and one guy does it to be overly offensive and still be able to post under the same name, but are there any good reasons? Does it provide any benefit other than being extra super anonymous?

I don't really see a huge problem if you can just download the demo and link it. If that's the case then nothing will really change except that some of the less try hard trolls/spammers will go away. If you actually have to buy destiny, then that really sucks for some of the older members and was a stupid decision on bungie's part to block them out, although at least the alt problem will actually be fixed.

Come to Sep7agon were the old flood

Edited by MrsPlatinumOG : 10/1/2015 7:36:57 AMI think it'll be a good and bad thing. The good: clean up the useless trolling and spamming alts that have nothing better to do. Come on, we all get sick of these people who have nothing to contribute on these forums but shit posting after another. They're rude and there arguments project nonsense and negativity. Who cares if they get banned, they have another alt to hop onto to rinse and repeat the same shit. The bad: long time invested members of the bungie community should be grandfathered in first off. I have to admit some quality members on here have been dedicated on these forums for quite some time and most I like. Unfortunately 343 from Microsoft now owns Halo, in case most of you didn't know. Bungie is taking care of there new baby, "Destiny" and it's millions of players, come on it's corporate. Something like this was bound to happen. Though implementing the older members would have been a plus and not erradicating them all together. Well that's just my opinion anyways.

Edited by leggo my eggo: 10/1/2015 7:19:35 AMwow deej's post made me angry. and what is alts? p.s. ive been in these forums since just 200
-
I lost my Alts already to the great purge. Once bungie ruins the forums even more with this change I'm just getting this account banned and leaving these forums for good. Not that anyone care......

Sad, very sad.

Edited by Flee: 9/30/2015 6:50:57 PMTerrible choice of policy indeed, but nothing too surprising. It's been pretty clear for a while now that Bungie's trying very hard to substitute their older and more experienced / intelligent veteran community by a younger, more naive and less critical community that won't question anything they do and will chug down anything marked with a big "become legend" sticker on it. On an entirely unrelated note: how have you been, Zach? Been a while.

If you want it to change, stop buying the downloadable content and stop playing the game. If you complain and buy it anyway, why should they listen?
-
As much as I hate to agree with Zoob. Bungie's pretty shit for doing this.
-
Activision/bungie are greedy wolf-bastards and these forums are FILLED with their idiot-sheep. This isn't the first move bungie did lowballing people forcing them to buy their $60 expansion that isn't even worth 20
-
Zoob, I love you. I will disappear
-
I think it would be fair to all to allow accounts 3 years or older to post in #Offtopic and #Gaming.
-
What do you mean , I've played halo 1 when it came out
-
Wow. There goes every respectable person in Offtopic.

Hello

Edited by Just Dawggy Dawg: 10/1/2015 6:41:17 AMThoughts. Idc. Halo sucks anyways. And all the alts on here are shit anyways. People always bitch that offtopic needs to be cleaned up and now it is being cleansed. Goodjob Bungie!

...am I dead?

>Take x amount of years to address and "solve" the alt problem >Slove it by essentially banning anyone who doesn't play destiny including people that have been here for a decade Hmm, seems legi- Wait, wat?.jpg GG Bungie, no re

MEEEEEEEEEEOW?

This forum should now have the URL: http://www.destinygameforums.net/ Because this isn't http://www.bungie.net/ anymore.
