becuase they are the ones who ran the halo instilations before, so they are called fore, meaning before, and runners meaningthe people who took care of it

Forerunners, like NightAvenger said, built halo. they are behind all the technology (e.g. plasma, overshield, active camo, armor) that the Covenant use... Those big elites in the cafeteria in the Maw are Black elites, special operations elites... they kick -bam!-

ohh, i always called them the Halo Forefathers....

hehe...alright, Forerunners works for me.....

Now that i understand what a forerunner is..., i would say that they are extinct, err dead...gone......i would doubt ever seeing them in any live form in Halo 2.....maybe a picture or something....

ya never know though.... bungie is god of the gaming universe right now because of halo mainly, (props to myth and stuff too, but mostly halo and halo2) and they are smart and they like to throw twists and turns so you never know these things... they just might come back

this is my theory, i have posted it several times before, they forerunners built the halos to stop the flood, they flood escaped and the forerunners set the halos off, killing all the smart life, only like a few survied, i say 2 and they went to earth to live, thus having to start over cuz they forgot how to do the technology and what not, and just lost it over the slow decay of time, and the forerunners had to start over and became humans

There is a great theory about this, but I can't exactly remmebr it. Im all tapped out righ t now and can't come up with anything new... I'll go and play the game and read the books then come back with something good.(can do both in two days or less)
