Odds are if somebody doesn't play Destiny, the site is really just better off without them. Most of "those guys" are assholes. If the user quality of people who will be forced off is that of Mad Max, we really aren't losing anything of value. Alt users like Lincoln and Purse will be castrated as well.
I would like a way for 6-7 year old accounts to be exempt from this, though.

Your account bio is "smart, interesting, seems out of place". If that doesn't reek of insecurity and inflated self-worth, I don't know what does. You resort to calling individual users out as being shit when you can't even smell yourself. We all know that having to have played Destiny isn't going to remove the bad users, especially not if you're the type we're left with. The amount of ignorance and lack of self-awareness that oozes off your posts just astounds me.

That bio is actually a quote from another user from a few years back. Note the lack of capitalization and how I myself am a grammar [url=http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_law]-godwinslaw!-[/url]. And you want cold, brutal honesty? Bungie doesn't care about the old community anymore. Why? Because they're not a source of revenue, all they do is hurt the game's advertisement and public image, and discourage others from purchasing and playing it. Its bad for business. And I agree with them. This new update only does good things for the site. And this is the community now, You cannot change that, and you cannot "fix" that. Either you accept that fact and just join it, or leave. There's always option three of stubbornly staying just to "fight" for an online community that doesn't want you on a site that doesn't want you, built and maintained by people actively trying to get rid of you.

Edited by Jim the Admin: 10/5/2015 8:04:12 AMThat's not what this was about and you don't even know my stance, your paragraphs meant nothing. This is about you picking out individual users to insult in a post for no reason other than you being petty. Frankly I don't care who said that quote, it's still in your bio and the context is non-existent. Hilarious that a hypocrite cannot recognize the hypocrisy of claiming we're a community and then treating us like a product/customer. Don't act like you're above them when I've seen your content. It's all about you, putting other users down is just a way to help you get up. Don't be holier than thou when defending a pay wall to access a forum. It's poor form. I've said my piece.
-
No, because said users are assholes who enjoy starting arguments and further dividing the already broken and segmented Seventh Column. They're cancer. And Bungie's finally cutting them out. And its their site, their IP, their property. If they want to restrict the site to paying customers, that's their business.
-
There is no way you're supporting this Ktan? I know you're a huge destiny supporter, but there's no way you can think they should be able to treat the old community and loyal fans like this?
-
Loyal fans would have bought Destiny. From a business standpoint, this makes sense; they're cutting off dead weight that is only being negative about their current product. Its a dick move, but a smart move.
-
Cleanse us now Bungie!

You just gave me cancer, autism, Ebola, anthrax, smallpox, AIDS, cholera, Down syndrome, and the bubonic plague.

It's pretty -blam!-ing greedy of them to do that. A lot of quality posters are about to banned for... What? People don't look at #destiny then buy the game, and #offtopic won't -blam!- Destiny's profits. It won't stop Alts. I can just hop on with 15 accounts and just play about 2seconds of gameplay each, and bam. I can be banned as much as I would like. It does nothing to help anyone, just pisses people off.

Lord almighty you're fuc#king stupid.

Edited by TechnoKat: 10/1/2015 1:19:35 AMSo. Because I don't like destiny and don't play it anymore, I don't belong here, even though I've been here spicing up the forums with fun since the days of Dark. Since the Reachtards and Zanzibar wars? Since Cheerios? A single game decided that my career that has spanned the great and terrible transition to B.next, the years from Halo 2 and onward because I'm critical enough to know that Destiny is not a game that the company with a legacy in the name of "BUNGiE" should be proud of? For shame, Ktan. For shame.
-
"Career" lol get on with your life already.

Edited by Tonalmeyotl: 10/1/2015 2:48:03 AMIf you don't like destiny or play it anymore, then why stay here? This website is more linked to destiny and its' contents, something you don't really like anymore soooo that has a simple solution. This isn't the only site that has an Off-topic.
-
Edited by Fenrisúlf: 10/1/2015 4:45:31 AMBecause it is the Bungie offtopic. It's like saying "there are white guys in other communities in the world, go there, talk to them and leave your friends". Its pretty irrelevant.
-
No, it's not. It's pretty relevant. Your example didn't even add up. There are plenty of other game forums, like many said, even Sep7agon if you want 'the flood '. There are more ways than one to keep in touch with friends. It's up to them whether they want to keep the friendship going, a game forum doesn't need to decide that for you or anyone.
-
So just because you don't play the game you shouldn't be in here? Wow then all those amazing members bnet use some have that were here because of Marathon and didn't play Halo shouldn't have been there because by that logic they're bad members. Gtfo
-
From a business angle, yes. They're no longer generating revenue and are only spreading a bad public image regarding Destiny.
-
lol, wrong again, Ktan. I'm flattered that you're so obsessed with me though. Be seeing you around....

Purse... I recall that name, you're the porn guy right?
-
No, he's not a porn spammer
-
Your days will end soon purse

[quote]Alt users like Lincoln and Purse will be castrated as well.[/quote] He has Destiny, he can still abuse the system lmao

Edited by Ktan_Dantaktee: 9/30/2015 7:38:42 PMGive it time, the autist will be shut down. He'll still be severely handicapped, too. Making an alt will take that much longer now.

And you're such a valuable member of the community by calling people "autists"?
