: B.org is in no way enough; the news page is empty, the categories are
: scattered to the point of being different domains entirely. I can't even
: nav to the Halo story page without google.
Most of B.org is falling apart because of lack of interest/effort on the part of the various people who used to maintain it. Claude, who owns the whole servers and domain and all, is usually very receptive to anyone with a modicum of skill who thinks they can revitalize some portion of the network.
If you want to do something productive for the Bungie community, offer to help update / maintain B.org. For instance: problems navigating to the Halo page from here? In theory, according to B.org guidelines, every page is supposed to have at least a B.org logo image which links back to the main page, which in turn links everywhere else. This forum apparently doesn't. Perhaps links at the top of the forum to the B.org main hub and the Marathon hub would be a good idea.
Not long ago Claude was seeming pretty eager for someone to redesign the Marathon hub, to better incorporate the new Aleph and Trilogy Release stuff, and better organize the rest of it. I was going to do so, but then got distracted... maybe you'd be up to it?
: Is another webpage the answer? No. Bob.com would have to be beyond just
: another webpage, to the point of encouraging all other forums to unify to
: a single massive site.
Yeah - encouraging the forums to merge is a no-go proposition because each forum is a different format and its users all usually prefer that format to any other. Getting rid of any or all of them in favor of another will get you nowhere with the old users - witness the Pfhorums, populated almost entirely by newbies. (Nothing against newbies, just making my point that old users won't migrate).
