Because, yesterday he ratted us out in these forums to the new mombasa forum people. We were playing a game call attack on new mombasa and he told on us and the moderators caught us. Trust it was a great topic. There were many posts and storylines. I was one of the those people who posted at the topic. (he was afraid we would flame and kill him) (he's afraid and hiding)
No, actually i PM'ed recon aswell. Now you can think whatever you want in a thread here, but this stupid superiority complex the flood has is retarded. Now new mombasa does have a good petrcentage of comlete idiots, but that dosent make all of them stupid, nor does it make the flood completely sensible either. Take the "I EET GRENADS!!!!one!" guy for an example.
No forum, no matter how supposedly intelligent, is without idiots. Now I can't speak for everyone, but I for one do not presume to think that "The Flood" consists of nothing but pure intelligent types. There will always be one or two posts that lead to nowhere. Much like this thread here. However, it is worth noting that "New Mombassa" does indeed have more immaturity than "The Flood" and is, if by statistics only, more sane (within our own odd definition of sanity). Having spent considerable time in both forums, it is safe to say that the veterans of Bungie/Halo tend to congregate in "The Flood" and the newer members tend to congregate in "New Mombassa". Although not all new members are of such low intelligence and/or maturity, it is safe to say that most are.
Therefore, "The Flood" is statistically a bit more cultured and experienced. Some may think this makes us better, but I think otherwise. It simply makes "The Flood" a place where, in ironic opposition to the forum description, the more seasoned of members can meet and talk intelligently. We accept new members with open arms assuming these members are not like those typically seen in "New Mombassa".
Forums work for certain people and certain groups of people. For some, "The Flood" fits them well, and for others "New Mombassa" fits them well. It is simply a matter of maturity and taste as to where you belong.
Such is my opinion on this matter.
As i said, its true there are a lot of smart people in the flood, But posts like "teach new mombasians how to spell" Are just idiotic, No single person in this forum, is 'better' than another, no matter which forum they post in.
Ive seen many posts saying "you look kinda smart, go into the flood, thats where anyone with a brain goes"
Texas ben has summed up exactly what i mean in another thread, post there.
