Subject: How About Another Waaaaaambulance?

Кланяються мені!

It's been quiet awhile since you guys posted a waaaaambulance. I think there quite hilarious, and your inbox is likely flooded with alot of "you suck fix this" or "i'm banned im sorry i won't do it again" especialy some Melee madness.

And yes im complaining about not ridiculing complainers (not really) a waaaaambulance about itself, the ultimate paradox. So what do you think

waaaaaambulance please!!!

Sure, I'd be up for another one, if they still get enough ridiculous mails from the aforementioned miscreants of Xbox Live.

I vote for Mat Noguchi to read them, as the angriest man in video game programming.

Hopefully you'll see soon enough. They are halarious.

a waaaambulance is bungies way of pointing out the special complainers and showing how stupid the complaint is allowing the community to laugh and humiliate them. Many of them where modders, standbyers and circle boosters from halo 2 asking for there accounts to be unbanned. Some of the emails bungie got where just hilarious. Id post a link to one, but its been so long, and the search feature shows nothing

But Noguchi's Rage might (or will) destroy the equipment. Such force should not be underestimated.

I seem to recall my favorite one being mentioned on the first Podcast: one person wrote in saying that they had mods for Halo 2, but didn't know which type of Matchmaking to use them in.

Just to tack onto what you've said, maybe for those who aren't familiar with the Waaambulace process: the guilt of these people is triple-checked so that the innocent aren't anonymously humiliated over the internet. The people who write in and get put up on display have been conclusively proven to be cheating.

At the end of the war. Nothing remains but a few Spartans. We are the only ones left. We are the Last Defence.

You want to know something hilarious?

The complainers have gotten sooo stupid that if you look at much of the topics and posts on the Halo 3 forum(and more often now than before the other forums), it's basically the equivalent of perusing through written waaahmbulance worthy material in real time. Where not to get your laughs but from a Primary Source, the forums :)

SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON!

Indeed. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamulance FTW!

Although...a strange thought just popped into my head. I wonder if Bungie could include some Recon armor whining in a whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaqmbulance or something similar. I get a few PMs and xbox live messages about it, but they must be inundated with them. I bet there are some funny requests there too.

I'm hoping for a waaambulance return on the next podcast.

*Edit* Just read evilcam's idea....I want a all recon waaaambulance. Now that would be one for the history books!

I'm currently putting together a community waaaaaambulance.

Won't be as good as bungie but will be funny I gaurentee.

If you guys see any just PM ME with them.

P.S. Don't include Bnet names because were not trying to embarass specific users, only nameless morons.

Oh, I disagree with this. People need embarrassment.

Unintentional humor is insufficient to absolve of a fool of his foibles. Bungie has a policy of not naming the kid whose brother installed mods on his Xbox, or the one whose internet experiences hiccups only when he's at the cusp of losing -- I don't doubt that a large part of this policy is due to our -blam!- friend the law, and not just because these stories are hilarious. But I don't think you're required to follow suit, especially when dealing with bungie.net usernames.

This is, incidentally, why I sometimes say such crazy things as "you're an idiot!" and "you're all stupid!" in various threads. It makes a real impact on the individuals silly enough to have said this or that (including myself -- I still shudder to think of Shishka). Overall, even a highly successful, massive thread will have negligible bearing on opinion at large; there really is no point in trying to change opinion, only to educate participants and hope that a Recon-clad reader will take notice as well. But it is possible, certainly, to have a lasting impact on the one person (or group) whom you single out, and his potential re-evaluation of beliefs and conscious change in manner of expressing those beliefs, is a realistic and rewarding objective.

Similarly, these funny lists, and indeed the waaambulance letters, have no real function other than to humor us with the foolish pleadings of the arrogant ignorant. They will not prevent nameless morons of the future from doing what they do best, nor will they necessarily evoke contrition from those past -- why change your ways when you've not been mentioned by name, and none of your XBL friends are pestering you about newfound celebrity? These people can safely ignore their stupidity after having read it (which they surely will; anyone who emails Bungie reads the updates. Rather bizarre: they're probably more informed than half of H3F on any given subject). Sometimes what you need is a public crucifixion over a mass anonymous effigy burning; the former implies rebirth and repentance, is directed and efficacious. The latter is just an angry show.

And there is a visceral satisfaction one gets from specifically calling out fools for fools by name, through the imposition of humility rather than solely as a didactic device. It's a wonderful feeling. I love it. Maybe I'm just cruel.

I sent a PM to 5 different Mods to get their votes on this. Mainly the ones active more in this forum. If they allow it, I have about 25 statements ready to go.

PM me with all your waaaaambulance submission in any of the common complaint topics, especially the ones listed in my prior post.

Only about 15 words long.

We need waaaaambulance.

Along the same lines (kind of), I would enjoy seeing the Webmaster make his return with a page full of poorly written letters to ridicule and mock.
