Subject: I'm halo free

They mostly come out at night... mostly...

About 4 months ago I posted on Bungie.net's Halo3 forum over the touchy subject of HaloCE. I wrongly assumed that since it was being released on xboxlive , Bungie had to be behind it. I also thought it wrong that Bungie would release HaloCE over xboxlive since they had previously said that they were never going back to HaloCE, despite an ungodly amount of requests from the Halo community for an xboxlive port of HaloCE's multiplayer.

So, being the completely honest and blunt person that I am, I accused Bungie of being a bunch of lying pieces of trash(those were the exact words too. no profanity). Not too long after this i was given a wonderful 4 month ban from the halo forums by luke smith. I sent an apology to him explaining that I had not understood that it was microsoft and not bungie behind the HaloCE download on xboxlive and that i was sorry for the comments i had made. But alas, the ban stayed in effect.

Now the 4 months are over and I can post again. But to be fair, I have no desire to post about anything halo related and only wanted to share with everyone that i have since sold my 360 and halo3. A big part of this is directly in response to my banning. I was greatly disappointed in Halo3 and was only still playing because of the small part of me that really loved Halo1 for what it was. So to you, Luke, I want to say thanks. I am Halo free. But you might want to practice your customer service skills a little bit more the next time you ban somebody for something so inconsequential. Cuz I'm certainly a long-time halo fan that is a halo fan no more. It just goes to show how little-valued a halo community member can be.

You spammed, you were banned.
People get banned for less. You're just going to have to get over it!
I don't think ruining your own personal enjoyment by selling your Xbox 360 is going to help anything...
Thanks for the blog... :/

Edit (after re-read and subsequent anger): You feel cheated!? You called the people who made your 'favorite' game "Lying pieces of trash" How else did you think their community representative was going to act?
Unbelievable.

"...how little valued a halo community member can be."

you can't say that you only stuck around a little while because of your love for halo1 and nothing else and then have the audacity to call yourself a community member. either you build this community or you don't. either you love this community or you don't. You obviously do not value this community, you only value it when your opinions get heard and when no one wants to hear you gripe, you take off.

Thanks to bungie for putting their banning capabilities to good use and purging the community of crap like this.

No blogging. You're free to play whatever games you like.

It's not Bungie's fault that you publicly flamed them without getting your facts straight. Please be a little more careful in future forum endeavours with other games. =]
