Wanna know the main reason? Its because they are angry and want other people to feel as bad as they do for the fact that they lost, I understand how someone could be mad at you taking their kill but if they are gonna be stupid over it then just ignore them man. Who cares what they say if you win just say yeah well atleast I wasnt owned.Just ignore em man thats the only thing you really can do.

Because I never had time for a quote.

The worst offenders ruin it for the rest of us... Like the fat gamers who live in their parent's basment. Steryotypes are a part of life.

Break free from your bounds and fly as high as the eagles!!!

Yea, superlong post. You could trim that down a bit.
There's nothing wrong with having a high voice, I don't rag on people about that.
There is a problem when you have a high voice and you never shut it.
Rarely, soooo very rarely is the microphone used for tactical info, intel, or coordination.

To you I say who cares what random halo players think, work with what you got; if people are giving you a hard time about you voice kick it up a notch and talk about your fav. pokemon.
Or try to sound like a girl, nobody complains when a girl steals their kill.

Probably for the same reason, whenver I go into a game with kids I'm Recon Number 54's age, wasting my life play video games, with no job and a promiscous wife......Why do I get streotyped?

Happiness=Suffering
Suffering=Happiness

There is always at least one who ruins it for the rest of us

It's because they can. Don't you know that older people are always better than younger. It is a scientific fact, not one to be judged or weighed. So if you're young, suck it up and keep brown-nosing and maybe, just maybe, you might get promoted to taking it up the butt.

Because younger kids or kids with higher voices are normally stupid/bad/ignorant/ annoying.

Maybe because the kid doesn't know that spacing out their posts with paragraphs is necessary so the reader doesn't have to stress out their eyes just to understand what the kid has to say.

Just a thought.

I think only reason this game really has gore is because of the flood, other than that it might've made a Teen rating. (Metroid prime 2 had blood and ragdoll physics, and don't even get me started on how many T rated games have and had swearing worse than all Halo's.)
sorry if you think that's off topic.

Today I was playing a few match and all with a friend of mine and other friend playing as his guest. We jumped into a social team slayer and his guest on accident signs out so they like lag out before the game starts. It was me and two other guys playing against five other people and we where doing good. The guy was bragging and all that and then he got po'd when I stole one of his kills. He gets mad saying you stole my kill and everything like that and then I say "sorry man its for the team" then he becomes rude to me based on the pitch I talk. Im nearly 15 years old and my voice is still high pitched so it sounds like I'm 8 years on the mic. So I just suck it in and ignore it. Another match I played with a friend double team we won and I said good game guys to the other team they where rude about being beat and playing with some one younger. Now I don't know why people gotta be rude about just the pitch of my voice I just play the game I don't cuss or scearm in my mic or say -blam!- comments and I'm a human. Most of us younger players don't do alot of this (but there is some) as much as older gamers. Now all I wish that they would stop making fun of us and being rude us all most of us wanna do is chill after school or what ever we do and have some fun.
