Rethink the Tower (Destiny)

make it into a proper social hub.

• We need areas where we can talk to each other
  
• an easy, UI free, way to enter and leave fireteams
  
• danger rooms to practice and demonstrate skills
  
• activities that encourage mic use

Its most social aspect right now is recruitment: build on that.

Remove the half-hearted attempts to drive people to the Tower:

• the Vault should be an inventory - accessible outside of the Tower
  
• the bounty robot should be a website www.psychomurder.com or a bounty app, stick them in our calendars.
  
• we should be able to buy stuff online - guardians are busy people - we don't live in the middle ages

Pretty much none of the things we do at the tower make sense in a world with internet and transmat capability.

Post-offices make a degree of sense in WoW because it's somewhat medieval but in Destiny???

Once the dross is removed you will be left with empty space that has to be filled with stuff that Guardians can do together.
