PlayerStats is a site within each individual Xbox Live Gamertag. Each page displays this players level in the various game types and where the past 1000 game scores can be accessed and viewed. The number of matches played is displayed along with the number of wins. These statistics can also be accessed via [[RSS (file format)|RSS]] feeds. A recent two developers have come up with a template for "[[Microsoft Excel]] 2003 Pro" that allows you to download your RSS newsfeed and view it in different charts and tables.

Player stats is the place on B.NET where people post there opinions and thoughts on many of things but mainly related to bungie

== Groups on Bungie.net ==

One feature of bungie.net is creating groups. If you have an account registered, you can create groups-commonly referred to as "chapters" or "fanclubs". Groups can have any theme to them-you can create a free for all chat room or a Halo fan club.

Groups on b.net is a safe where you enjoy eating babes and kittens.

Unfortunatley, many of these "fanclubs" are overrun with generally unpleasant people - group "conquerors", hackers, and spies. Mature people try to stay away from them.

Groups have a special system in them generally referred to as "ranks". These "ranks" are admin positions that vary in power, such as kicking members out of the group, banning members, posting news stories for the group to read, changing rank positions, and the Full Control rank, which the group's founder automatically has.

Some groups have been created to help bungie.net's Community, such as the '''7th Column Assembly'''. These groups involve making allies with other groups and banding them together - the "senate" approach. Currently, two of the most organized ones are [http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/assembly/GroupHome.aspx The 7th Column Assembly], created by Papa John, and [http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/ha/GroupHome.aspx High Alliance], created by dogbert14. The first one created was High Alliance.

==Forums on Bungie==

Yet another feature on the Bungie website are the forums. The forums are a part of Bungie that let the members discuss things in certain topics, to each forum, it's own topic. The list of forums are as follows:

The forums on bungie is the place to express your anger of a hard days work. Had a tough day? Call some one retarded! Had a bad day? Piss and moan about halo 2! Had a bad week? Then go right a head and falme some random person and make them cry!

== The Underground ==

"Discussions about anything and everything Bungie."

All too often, members violate the rules in this forum and post topics concerning the Halo series.

This is the place to flood all your posts about a game that may or may not exist. This is also the place where Frankie lost his virginity.

== The Septagon ==

"Improve the Seventh Column and take over the world!"

Many members post suggestions here to improve the 7th Column, though more for feedback from peers than hope of it actually being accepted. As well, it is the 'hub' of the community of Bungie.net, and one of the more mature forums.

This is where the hobos come to pea every night before bed.

== New Mombasa ==

"Dedicated forum for Halo 2 related discussions."

Here, people talk about Halo 2's campaign. It has barely any flamers in it, luckily.

This is where people show how ignorant they are about what actually happened in halo 2's campaign.

== Zanzibar ==

"Dedicated forum for Halo 2 Multiplayer related discussions."

This is where flamers argue about whats cheating , whats fair and a ton of other ****.

This forum is fairly well known throughout the Community, mainly for the insanely large amount of flamers in has in it. If you create a thread, you are bound to be flamed at least once.

== Optimatch ==

Over run by beggars wanting more playlists 4 free

== The Maw ==

An inactive forum , kinda like a dark alley in new york city. Just remember these thigns and you will be fine:

== Optimatch ==

1) Always have a gun in your pocket

"Dedicated forum for Halo 2 Xbox Live Optimatch Playlist Discussions."

This forum is very much like Zanzibar, only that it is overrun with egotistical "pros" of Halo 2, who prefer the Battle Rifle (an overused, cheap weapon in Halo 2 equipped with a scope and a three round burst of bullets. Only ''four bursts to the head'' can kill you) over all weapons. Unfortunatley for them, that is the only weapon that they know how to really use. They have almost no knowledge at all about the other weapons in the game. The members here flame as well, calling themselves "pros" and everyone else "noobs", an overused and immature word used mainly on the bungie forums as a whole.

2) Always have a knife in your pocket

3) If you see ANYONE stab them before they stab you just to be safe

4) If some one asks you to help them shoot them in between the eyes.

5) If a car pulls up next to you shoot out it's tires , scratch the car up with your knife and run like hell giving your self cover fire.

6) If you see any children RUN and HIDE!

7) If you haven't killed any one by the time you get out of the area you must shoot your self because your a zombie!

== The Maw ==

"Dedicated forum for Halo PC related discussions."

This forum is calm and fairly inactive.

== The Library ==

"Dedicated forum for Halo Xbox related discussions."

This is where the DNA of the races prior to halos first firing were contained to restablish life

Although this forum is, specifically, only for Halo 1 discussion, it is overrun with members who were disappointed with Halo's sequel, Halo 2. Usually, the topics relate to how much Halo 2 supposedley "sucks" compared to Halo 1. The moderators there do not bother to lock any of these threads. Most members there are rather egotistical and overly opinionated.
