Dear Anonymous User,

We regret to inform you that your request has been denied. After careful consideration, we have decided that though your application was both thorough and concise, we cannot distribute either the Recon armor variant, nor the flaming chest armor typically reserved for Bungie staff.

We would also like to take a moment to thank you for writing in to us via our Submit News applet. By the time this communication reaches you, you should have already received your reward. Enjoy your vacation.

Love,

Bungie


I love their sence of humor.

That's just sad... why does everyone beg and plead for recon armour?

[Hotrod]

Yep, you gotta love Bungie, no?

So, what happened in the end?

[Peterljr888]

Sounds like the user was deleted/banned. (Reward = Ban = Vacation?)

Yep, you gotta love Bungie, no?
No.

Because it's become a status symbol, and these kids want to be "hip", or whatever you kids call it these days.

People still play halo 3 :raise:

[English Mobster]

No.
Why don't you like them, jcap?

[Cortexian]

Why don't you like them, jcap?
Probably because the "I can haz Recon" thing got old a year, or three, ago...

I prefer Valve's (http://www.shacknews.com/onearticle.x/50498) sense of humor.

Shacker Lionhart32935 had a minor gripe with one of Half-Life 2: Episode Two's commentary recordings:

Hi Gabe!

One [of] the commentators in episode 2 sounded really bored. I believe his name was Stevie or Steven, can't quite recall. Tell him to sound more excited. He makes games, he should be off the wall to talk about what he worked on. He sounded like Ben Stein was having more fun than he was.

Valve's Chet Faliszek wasted no time in righting the wrong, going straight to the source:

Thanks for your email.

Based solely on your feedback we have decided to fire the offending party, Steve Kalning. Instead of sending him to HR and wasting their time, I have cc'd him on this email and this will act as his official notice. Clean out your desk Steve.

Thanks Lionhart for helping us make Valve a better place.

It wasn't long before a second email response followed:

Pat, after careful study, I realize steve bond could have also been the culprit. So since we can't really be sure, and really no sense wasting any more time on this.

Mr Bond? Please clean out your desk as well.

Concerned that his complaint had already resulted in the loss of two jobs, Lionhart32935 replied:

How about just giving him a hug instead? I heard that cheers up many people. Buy him a drink, even better! It will make the work environment more exciting for him if he gets unexpected surprises from fellow coworkers.

Faliszek was having none of it:

That is the kind of weak thinking we don't need aroud here Lionhart. Hugs never got a 96 on the metacritic score.

Standards upheld!
