You're not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fuc7ing khakis. You're the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world. ~Fight Club

I don't want random messages (ie, Join my group, etc). I have begun blocking solicitations.

Am I the only one that has noticed, most of the people happy with the update are people below level 40?

Which I guess is the "Smart" Decision for Bungie since the majority of the population are low levels, and the only people pissed off are the people with high levels, and we are the minority.
I'm fine with it. I don't expect to get 45 anytime soon, and I always thought the General symbol looks cool, so I get a chance to get one (or a few). I don't care about what others think about my skill, If I can get emblems, Im going to get them because I like looking at my emblem. Sure its cosmetic, and many people call you stupid for caring about such a thing, but look at how much is spent on apparel.

YAWN!

The corrupt file on the fileshare thing is easy. What are you doing about host booting and standbying?

I honestly think this is the worst idea i' ve ever heard of. This makes higher skilled players look the same as the noobs. a Major grade 4 can be a general even though reaching a 50 is impossible for them due to lack of skill.

This is going to please all noobs on halo 3. Bungie....you just removed 99% of the competition on xbox live. Thank you. Why not play COD4 if you want to get a high rank without being good at the game?

I think this is even worse than Team Control......Being a general should require a level 50. thats what makes the general an accomplishment.

Watch while everyone sees the competition vanish, along with a large population of high skilled halo 3 players.

Now folks, back to happiness and cheer. After all, it is Canada D'eh!

Wait.. so if I am a fifty in doubles but only a ten in everything else( I'm not). can I be a Major in everything else or no? Like do I need a fifty in everything to be a Gneral in everything. Or is it just the EXP?

All this does is give the horrible players out there the chance to get their "General". Seriously.. you could be a legitimate level 10 and still have a General in Team Slayer because you played a ton of games.

What does this solve? It just trivializes the General rank if anything.

I'm pretty sure you need a fifty in each playlist with enough exp to show a general in each playlist. Other than that if you have a fifty and enough exp your general rank will show on your service record and Bnet

I think the AU2 is a great idea. Now everyone can be a General if they really want to be and all of the rank hate will stop.

Also, will we get the podcast on Monday?

I think you guys are being a bit tough on the folks that had questionable content on their file share. There should have been a warning through the XBL message service to everyone about the questionable material and the possibility of a ban a week ago. Even if they did something wrong, you guys seem to be missing the point that many of these people have probably poured a ton of money into XBL, 360s, and your game. It may be your game to police, but you don't have to be asses about it.

I could fight with you all day!!! An 8 year old is not going to know about anything about the CoC and I don't think anyone should be banned forever for any modded contenet they didn't make yes have a month ban or something but not forever

so all the update does is reward players with a general rank if they get enough experience? wow now all thats going to happen is little kids screaming how they're a general when they are really a ten. seriously way to set up a situation to get everyone generals just because they cant get it by themselves. but good job on banning inappropriate file shares.
