Perhaps they interpret "Discussions about anything and everything Bungie" as literally everything Bungie, which would include Halo. You think maybe the sub-title has something to do with so much spam there?
Or is it just because they don't use their brains, and just click the first Forum they see?
(reading the rules wouldn't hurt either)
I choose the latter.
It really annoys me when people post a Halo 3 topic in The Underground. Now, you may think, "Well, you just care too much", or "You need to calm down!". I do have valid reasoning for being annoyed.
When I first joined Bungie.net so many months ago, I read the code of conduct and the stickies. I read the rules, and got a feel for what to do and what not to do in the community. The few times I got the wrong forum, all the instances were miniscule things, compared to the common ones we see. Occasionally I would mix up The Underground and The Septagon. Or maybe, I'd get confused with something like the Halo novels, which fall into the grey area. They kind of rest halfway between The Underground and The Library/New Mombasa.
What annoys me so much when people post off-topic in The Underground is that I know they're just new members who got impulsive and refused to read the rules. They failed to do what I did, and it annoys me. I don't see it as "unfair", because they face the consequences of their ignorance, whereas I don't. But if I can take ten minutes out of my day to read the rules, I expect other people to do the same.
