Well I figure there should be at least one thread open for discussion about the current situation, and this may as well be it.

Good post.

Left open because it's MATURE and LOGICAL

Well said Ciaran, well said indeed. But realistically, the old days are never coming back. The hype machine that is the Halo series is here to stay, just like your in-laws at Thanksgiving- mildly entertaining at the height of their drunken carousing, but quite irksome when dealing with the hangover. The community that has grown around the series, for better or for worse, is here to stay.

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

Fair enough, Evilcam. I responded to something specific you stated, and if I was mislead by those words, then I apologizing for acting too quickly, as it may seem. Although, I still stand by what I said, even if you are now out of the picture.

I'll step back from the rest of this for now. I feel like I've said my part enough, and that's all I can really give at the moment..

I'm so good at Halo, Chuck Norris has me as an avoided player.

An 8 page topic, with generally positive attitudes, with a dash of back and forth, followed by a joke about your mom? It seems like the old days again. There was a call for Shishka even!

WoW, bring another Shishka anytime now Achronos.

Forums were best when he was here. Nobody even breathed.

I must say, I do miss the old forums more.

Judging by join date and post count alone, I'm not really an old member, and I wasn't a member for what seem to be the glory days, but I lurked a lot before I joined and enjoyed all of the different jokes and people.

Nowadays it seems like the community has gotten so large that it has lost it's charm. I don't see members who stand out above the others like before, and I hardly see any more community-wide jokes. It's as if we've gotten so large that we've all just drifted apart.

Now I'm not saying I know a lot, or that I have experience here, but from my personal observations, these forums have changed. For the worse? Not really, but they're a hell of a lot less personal and connected.

I'm a serious dude, so what?

I don't know why we're all bothering with a petition, I have a, uh, "friend" that happens to know she's always available anyway.

No need to waste any trees over this.

Quinntology.

Haven't been on in a few days, so sorry I haven't responded.

To Shai back on page....4?:

Ok, first of all, you don't want to mention any names, yet everyone knows who was listed in impurity's post. Haha =P

Anyway, when you talk about "those who were attacked" I'm assuming you meant impurity's thread. If I had wanted modship, don't you think I would post more often? Sure, I make the post here and there, but my thread about the community was the first long one I had done I a while. Ok let's see, oh then you post does get good. Hmm, so I brown-nose and I'm a goody-two-shoes character now? While I admit I have never been banned on any of my accounts, I in no way thank I'm a goody-two-shoes. In fact, you haven't seen behind closed doors, none of you have been to my true home, the Contubernium. If you went there, you would quickly find out that I'm not what you think I am. Sure, I like to help out people, but if someone does something that I deem inappropriate on purpose then I let them have it.

Moving on to the point you made about "taking them down a few pegs." Taking me down a few pegs from where exactly? I don't even understand where your coming from this one, does it tie into "Chipping away at some of the arrogant shell that they hide behind."? Ok, when somebody admits their faults to the people they hate, I'm pretty sure that is not being arrogant. Please, before accusation, do some research.

Let me say that before that little post that I made about the status of the community, who had heard of me? Anyone? And if I wanted modship and I wanted to be recognized and be arrogant, etc. then why would I always swtich main accounts? To be humorous? What you don't realize that in a way, you are both the attacker and the attackee. You strive for attention when you make these kinds of posts, I see it every once in a while. You also get attacked from various people from time to time. So in a way, you have faults from each, but in a less severe way.

I do, however, find it ironic that you mentioned the attackees begin arogant a number of times. Isn't that what you are? You refuse to accept anyone else's opinion, claiming yours is the right one. Perhaps you need to "get knocked down a few pegs". I admit myself that I am not perfect. Not at all, my opinions may be biased, and my observations may be overshadowed my various things. Sure, I'm in High School, in fact I'm just about to turn 16 within the next two weeks. But it seems like in certain ways, youth can be a good thing. Youth tends to energize, and generate more topics of interest. The adults here can be just as important. They can provide their life expirience and intergrate them into a discussion, that and their wiser. But, like always, one side is not always right. Same goes with members of old, and members of new.

I may not have a way with words like some, but I believe I got my point across. None of us are perfect, and therefore we are all wrong in the matter. Now please, let's just move on from all of this community is going to hell stuff. It's even getting old even for me...
