That... seems slightly obnoxious.

Or it's a very factual statement about how B.net will save the day. We really don't know what all of that Group/Clan business on B.net will offer us. I predict it will either be the sky or a bucket of dog turds. I'm hoping for the former because I do not want another website to check into everyday because some la-de-da Overlordy-pants likes to control people.

You do see how that can be seen as obnoxious, right?

I hope it works out well for the people that use it. I won't, because Bungie's forums have historically been a mess and now they're messier, albeit in a different way. I don't get the tag system and I don't want to commit any brain space to it, let alone any problems it brings up.

Perhaps, if you are made out of sugar and it's raining.

If it's useful and you like Destiny, you'll use it. Otherwise, I find no fault in you not using B.net.

I don't understand either of the things you just said there.

You, sir, have been a part of the wrong clans. :)

I was in a great Clan with great people many of whom I am still XBL friends with but not all people in Clans are good. For awhile, I was part and parcel of the best and worst a Clan could be. Then I began to see just how insidious clannish behavior could become. I won't go into the dark details.

So no, I won't join a clan as I was in before.

I am in our 2old2play Clan for Destiny. If all it ends up being is a social club on B.net, then I'm out. If it brings benefits to Destiny that helps me play with friends without limiting other social interaction then I'm staying in.

I already know our Destiny clan, will at worst be useless, because I know the people in charge. I'm sure they'll drop the clan too if it serves no good game purpose.

Though I'm not too big a fan of friends-only, I really hate articles that have such a negative accusatory tone.

That guy is famous for that kind of tone.
