"No I don't eat Vegemite. It's the Devil's own crap paste"

I noticed that after the weekly updates, particularly this one, that half the page one threads in the Halo 3 forum are regarding issues brought up in said update. To avoid duplicate threads, why not create a thread entitled Weekly Update Discussion for each update. That way you don't get a whole lot of threads talking about the same thing.

The News is there for discussing news stories. But Bungie really needs to put a "Discuss this Topic." here button at the bottom so people will be redirected and repeat topics stays under control.

The End

‘The conscious is cancerous if allowed to linger’

"Even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there."

Good idea but it already exists.

The News

However as Weekly Updates bring about several topics of discussion and the news topics are filled with ZOMG 1st post (something I'm guilty of too!) it is no surprise topics about all different things in the update pop up. I don't think one thread would help or should I say I don't think one thread does help.

Edit: Halodude beat me to it. Sorry, I wrote half my post, left and came back so I never knew a link to the news already existed but at least I emphasise the point ;-)

Oh wow I had no Idea about The News. I have to admit there's still a lot about bungie.net that I don't know. Thanks for the link guys.

Oh and go ahead and lock this please.

Then I really don't see a need for a new thread considering there already is one...

Indeed... just scroll to the bottom of the news post and look to the right.

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the clichéd lines.

If forum in the "other forums" seem to go largely unnoticed. You get people posting in the Halo 3 forums about topics that should go in classified, and such. At the least there should be a "discuss this topic" link like someone said.

Edit: Oh haha it'd probably do me some good to read the whole thread first. :s
