You know, after seeing that no one actually gives a -blam!- about the site enough to even click through when they visit, I'm closing it down.

I have spent five months of my life with this site and I feel somewhat pissed! Don't be telling me to keep it open either. You've had your chances to help and, generally speaking, none of you could be arsed.

Well, that's fine by me... Say your goodbyes because I'm not putting myself out anymore. I'm not going to spend another penny on your enjoyment... Go back to your slow sites with paltry download rates and go back to signing up for memberships just so you can download a map.

I've bent over backwards to help you lot out and all I asked for in return was a few clicks... You can't be arsed? Well, neither can I then... simple.

Goodbye. I'm not having anything to do with Halo CE anymore...

You might wanna start by removing the stuff from your sig. Also, put into consideration the amount of traffic from people that dont visit THIS forum.... I personally am not into the CE scene but dont think you should yell at the fellow Bungie.net forum runners. Sorry that CE got the best of you. Good luck.

Thanks dude. This is the most sensible post I've had on the subject...

I have also posted at Halo Impulse, Halo2HQ and Gearbox just to make sure the message gets across...

Oh, and it wasn't Halo CE that got the better of me...

Just dont stress over something like this. Yes, it is clear that you enjoy it, but you cant let something that you enjoy stress you out. If needed, take a break. There is such thing as too much of a good thing. Although I have not visited your site yet, maybe you should put up something at the top asking people to click on ads if you have not yet done so. But because I dont like seeing a fellow Bungie.net forum runner stressing, [strikethrough] I shal visit this site I hear so much about.[/strikethrough] Just take it easy dude. It will all turn out for the best eventually.

holy crap dude, now where will i get my maps. that was the only site i went to to get my maps, i had the page in my faveroits!

looks like you did not think of what it will do to the people that do go there eh?
and what do you mean we only have or selvs to blame? because YOU want to shut it down, be cause YOU THINK that no one cares, dude that is all bull -blam!- to me, so plz dont complain about us, running a web site takes more that 5 months any way, you have to get it out to the people, just putting a link in your sig is not going to do crap, no body cares about peoples sigs, it took me 2 years to get my site popular, and did i complain about people not comming?

I'm not complaining about people not coming to my site... I recieve a regular daily 7,000 page views! Or rather, I did...

7,000 page views a day and 120gb of bandwidth a month... I would say that was quite popular! If it took you two years, you might want to rethink your srategy...

looks like you did not think of what it will do to the people that do go there eh?

I'm sorry... do I owe you something? I have done more for the Halo CE community than the vast majority of you put together! How dare you say that I haven't thought of the players!

heh,
what ever, I am already tired of hearing you complain, all you did was put links to download maps, and mods, wopidi -blam!-en do, do you know how many people that do that on there own sites???
so look at it this way, there is still other sites that we can download the maps/mods from, so dont complain that you did more then any body by posting links!
i can do it to, a 3 yro babby can do it, it is not that hard, you just had to pay for you site that way you can complain about it later, with free sites, you dont care how many people visit. and you dont have as much ads that you did on your site, they are all over the place, so if you are done with ce be cause people did not click on any ting, that is your fault not ours, so dont complain about, we the people do not want to hear it!

I actually thought you had a brain up untill now... How wrong was I?...

If you'd actually opened your eyes and taken notice of what was going on, you would have noticed that I hosted all the stuff myself... Not just links to other downloads on other sites... That's called stealing bandwidth, but if that's what you are happy to do...

Oh, and just out of curiosity, you did what for the community?... I can't recall...

I dont think that you are getting the point here 'Ace'. He has put time and money into something for others to use for no money. I dont know how long the site has been up, but the entire time it was up (until just recently) he has asked NOTHING of the Halo community. Now that he is having trouble keeping it up, he is asking for help. Help that still does not cost any money for you. Just a few minutes of your time to click an ad. Clicking truly cannot be that hard. You did multiple times to get back to this post! Dont attack him for asking for help. I can see how he got so pissed when he gets thousands of hits and only 3 clicks of the advertisements. And yes, Im sure there are other resources to get your maps, but how many have compiled as many as he has into one place? I(Seriously that is a question because I dont know...like I said before, not into mods/ce) But dont attack him for ASKING for help. A demand would be a different story. But he demands nothing of you. There are just consequences for not offering help when it is asked for....


Also, dont say 'we the people'... I was sure I was considered part of the 'people' and after all this, I surely do not wish to have you speaking for me!

wow you hosted, so dose leetgamers.org....so amazing isint it?

and i actualy dont trash the program, i think it was a smart idea, so i support it, and just because you are mad about a few extra buck out of your pocket, that is your fault. I dont want any bad blood between us, but realy, no one cares about the fine detail, they never do.


and wait, why would you talk about my brin, how did you find out i did not have one? did you give me a C.A.T scan your self? do you even know what that is?

Thaqt post was like a breath of fresh air! Thankyou for understanding my position so well.

In answer to your question, there is only one other site that offers the same level of involvement... Halomaps.org . There is one main difference though...

I'll let you work it out.

Hey, the day you said to click stuff I spent about 10 minutes doing it while watching tv...lol

If I go there (maybe once in a long while, once a month to check stuff), I always give a few whirls on the google thing.

I don't really know what to say. I would like to say that I've found a solution and the site is back up...

Untill I do...

First off, Ace man chill out, its no wonder you got banned out of these forums once before. this place really shouldn't be for flaming people even if you do strongly disagree... if that's the case as is it is right here... just keep your fingers away from posting in the thread (Keep your digital mouth shut)

and as far as Muff is concerned, yes I understand why you are upset, and I don't blame you. But not everything works out the way it's supposed to. And as far as yelling at others digitally while getting your point across, is really only asking for unpleasant encounters with people who do not fully understand your situation. I say, take a couple deep breaths. and take your next paycheck and use the portion you'd normally use to pay for the site to treat yourself to a kick ass day of doing something else that you love, whatever that may be. I mean just from guessing how much money you've put into it I can imagine that you can enjoy yourself tthoroughly with the extra cash. And yes I have tried to get a hold of extra cash to help you out because I have a strong belief in Karma... honestly I've never even been to your site much less downloaded anything from it... but I still tried to help out.... unfortunatley man it really does mean the difference between me having the internet, and helping you out... and yes it may be selfish but that is human. So I'm telling YOU to be selfish and quit trying to make the Halo community happy. just make yourself happy man.

All in all muff what I'm trying to say is quit being so nice to the people who have not really supported you and be nice to youself.

Now granted some ppl really are trying to help your site out but with such a large decision its hard not to hurt some feelings. They will get over it and find another, more complicated version of your site elsewhere.

QUIT PAYING FOR US AND TREAT YOURSELF MUFF!!!
