Back in my day we didn't have no fancy lasers, and the hogs were indestructible!

Just wondering, only I deceided to come back on Halo 2 and was shocked to discover that it had been changed to an unranked playlist and my hard earned 37 in the playlist was gone.

Now I enjoy the game very much, I also enjoy Halo 3, however I don't think it is fair of bungie to remove ranked playlists like this. We buy their game, we download their maps all the while paying good money for these items. For me then to discover that my level had been stripped from me for no reason was discouraging to say the least.

Yet I continued hopeful that I may reclaim my status as a top end player once more, so I began playing Team Slayer, my next best level, only to discover that the same problem remained that put me off the playlist in the first place, me carrying the team... repeatedly.

Now I understand there are mixed levels of skills, as some people play casually, or in their spare time, whatever. Yet there are some people who have no excuse who blatantly do not deserve the high level they have, and ultimatley no matter how hard, and how well one might play the game is lost.

An Example

My deepest thanks to Ids2000 who played very well and showed considerable skill.

Now although this game was a victory for us, it was fairly close with a point difference of only 7.

I understand to many this may seem pointless, perhaps even idiotic, but the main point of this is that I would like feedback from others, to hear their views. As well as to hopefully be seen by a ray of bungies glorious light... or a moderator.

To them I would ask, could Team Snipers, Hardcore and H2 Challenge please be removed, they simply clog up the system, and could the Matchmaking system perhaps have its level gathering function more refined, so people are given the levels they deserve and that levels closer to one another are more commonly placed together.

My thanks Black Hawk Up.

edit: Should anyone else be experiencing the same problems and seeking a player for matchmaking or would simply wish to play with me on more casual terms or contact me for feedback my Gamertag is also Black Hawk Up.
