The Flood was nuked when this site was rebuilt. The way I see it, with all due respect, is that Bungie believes their new game is going to make their website more popular than reddit, because that seems to be what the redesign was based off of. Their theory seems to be that hash tags will help the masses of destiny fans find answers to their gaming questions, meanwhile killing private groups and any sense of community (threads within threads and out-of-order replies). Maybe I'm naive and I'm often wrong... But that's how it feels to me.
