But people usually don't complain and whine at this kind of magnitude. It's absolutely insane, to the point that some of these people might need serious help.

I don't know if the Underground is really safe. I have seen plenty of the same type of stuff in there, as in NM.

That was the hole's original purpose, but it was corrupted. I asked Yoozel to lock it for that very reason.

Ah, and Knives. You bring up a valid point. Except that would completely restrict anyone new from joining about 75% of the time. We don't have a problem with people in general, we have a problem with people who refuse to even speak English to any degree of coherency. Those who refuse to post in the correct forum. Those who refuse to respect Bungie, and anyone even their fellow peers.

Yeah....what's with them censoring the word "Jesus" in your sig?
Well I put the word [censored], but I don't think the word Jesus would be a problem. I've gone about three months with it in my sig, and I never once got flamed. The only people that ever mentioned anything about it were DUSTER, who told me about his church's Halo group, and Shishka, when he told me it had to go. But I suppose religious references are religious references and it was only so long before one of the mods would tell me I had to take it out. Still, I considered it the crown jewel of my sig.

Wow, I'm glad I missed the game piracy bit over here. I got to report a couple sites, but all the forums I visited at the time were in chaos.

It was bad, I found out the ending just a mere day from the release. No warnings or anything

Talking about stupid posters... Right now, in New Mombasa, some major -edit- is posting about how -edit- (read -edit-) should be enslaved.

It's times like this I wish I could kill people over the internet. And mind you! I think killing is bad!

Yeah, the pirating caused quite a stir.

Gnorn, I'd edit that post before you get blacklisted or something bad like that. Don't bypass the censor, and don't use any of the n-words.

It was a cold day near the southern base in Blood Gulch. Cortana and I were relaxing over a game of Go Fish, WHEN OUT OF NO WHERE 700 BANSHEES CAME FLYING IN!!! I GRABED MY SPARTAN LASER AND LET HELL REIGN DOWN UPON THEM. I HOPPED IN THE NEAREST WARTHOG AND TOLD CORTANA TO GET IN.

Nah. I say we move in and take back the Underground. New Mombasa is like... you know in the Matrix, the Machine City? Remember the defenses that thing had? Well thats like 15 ships, or however many people go, not including Neo (unless we have a mod with us), trying to defeat that.

Ok, confusing example. Thats like a few grunts trying to kill the human race.

Thats better.

But we should totally eradicate the Flood and the Septagon of all non-sentient live (e.x. spammers, flamers, the sort of scum that hangs in New Mombasa), then take back the Underground, then mabye we might have the strength to take Zanziber. But It's not like thats going to happen (It would be cool if it did... but alas) so I'm not sure why I'm going into all this detail about it.

Funny thing is, Makaveli once said that they would be reclaiming the Underground within a week. They seem to have been unsuccessful. This should not deter us in our time of troubles, however. They are to ants as we are to the praying mantis. There might be a lot of them, but we've got kickass spines and are a lot bigger. Also there was a Goosebumps book about a giant mantis, you can't deny the snazzy of that.

Sorry, should have thought of that. Who's stupid now? :-)

Anywho, edited the post. Thanks for your warning.

Rember The Flood! (Repeat when needed)

  • 12.05.2004 6:46 PM PDT

Short of blacklisting every incoherent-thread maker, there is no way to handle the problem. There are simply too many of them coming every day. They come in for say, three days, post crap because they don't know the rules (or don't care), then leave forever. Now, that wouldn't be so bad if thousands of people weren't doing this, but they are, and we can't do a damn thing about it.

Sheesh, things were so much easier a year and a half ago, we didn't even need mods back then...
