6 months is a long time in terms of servers supporting 8 year old computer games.

That's the 2 possible FCG quotes.
Yes, I know. I only posted the second one because only the second one is my favorite. The reason it is my favorite is because the first one makes a certain amount of sense because a dwarf says that line when you near a toppled statue that villagers worshipped in The Fallen Lords - while unlikely in a normal universe, the statue COULD be a statue of this Mad Deadly Worldwide Gangster Communist Frankenstein Computer God (or the statue could be the god itself) so the relationship between toppled statue and toppled god seems pretty clear and direct. On the other hand, having the line about "throwing off the shackles of Mad, Deadly, Worldwide, Gangster, Communist, Frankenstein Radio Earphone Slavery" seems much more random - the link between a toppled mysterious statue and throwing off the shackles of Mad, Deadly, Worldwide, Gangster, Communist, Frankenstein Radio Earphone Slavery seems much more nonsensical and whimsical to me.
fyi: When you cut and pasted the quotes from
myth.bungie.org, you forgot to fix the text 'thrown OF the shackles' to 'thrown OFF the shackles'. It's a subtle change I know, but correct grammer is so very, uberly, way important in making one look smarter than one is, and helps give the illusion that one just has this mad myff knowledge on the top of one's head. At least that's what I count on.
