Bungie has several community volunteer roles on Bungie.net and partner platforms. These roles are ambassadors for the Bungie Community and our games who work with the Community, Player Support, and Web teams.
MentorsForum Mentors wear the "white gloves" of our community, lending a helping hand to any player and guiding them with support to our Help articles and Bungie-authored troubleshooting methods. Mentors are commonly found in the #Help Forum on Bungie.net or the Destiny Companion App. Their official group is located here. |
NinjasForum Ninjas are our website moderators. They work in the shadows, removing bad actors from our website whenever our Code of Conduct is broken. You may see one every so often in the forums replying to threads, but their work is mostly behind the scenes. Their official group is located here. |
ShieldsCommunity Shields are Bungie's live stream moderators. Whether the streams are for Bungie Bounties, charity initiatives, or whatever reason we decide to broadcast, these individuals help to keep chat a bit cleaner. You will see them commonly through our partnered platforms channels, such as Twitch, during our live streams. |
