I would expect much better from the company that makes Halo. This website is HORRIBLE!

If you just want people to SEE it, then its fine. It's very pretty.

If you want people to USE it, it has to be USEABLE.

Fix this site Bungie.

Can I get an Amen fellow Halo players?

Agreed. I'm yet to see a better site.

In fact, there are some who believe this site to be better than Halo....

And I don't know what you consider by "ease of use". Possibly gigantic, page sized buttons with a white background and bold black text that say Add Reply and so on.

I don't know about all of you, but the site is incredibly slow for me, and I'm using DSL...and I wish that toolbar would go away.

Are you using Mozilla Firefox?

If you are then just go to Tools, Settings, Advanced, and turn off smooth scrolling. It'll still be slower than Internet Explorer but a lot faster than before.

I'm not talking about finding things. I'm talking about just simply scrolling up or down, or navigation throught the site in general.

I'm using Firefox. I use ...damn, see, right there...I typing in the text field and I have to scroll because the cursor goes behind the "tool bar". That, my friends, is bad web design.

Anyway, now I've scrolled...on with my thought...I use Firefox on Windows at work, and on Mac at home. After reading your post, I tried this forum on IE on my Mac...it's an older version of IE, so a warning message came up saying "Warning, you are viewing the site in a downgraded display", but you know what? It was better. No tool bar getting in the way of my text field, no clunky jittering scroll.

I also tried Safari on the Mac and it too was clunky and slow, from all the graphics. I'll try it on more browsers and more platforms at work.

Stop complaining. Wrong forum anyway.
