Lately at least 95% of all posts i see are just technical, or Halo PC questions, no meaningful discussion, no conversations on the game, nothing, I mean, i like to help people who have a problem and all but that's all i've been doing lately, so is this forum doomed to Halo PC technical Q & A or are we going to firgure out a way to discuss Halo "PC". The problem is anyone who wants to discuss Halo campaign/the Halo universe ends up going to "The Library" to talk, or for Halo 2 "New Mombasa". So really what I'm asking is that can we figure out a way to make this forum on Halo PC really about Halo not just the computer aspect of Halo?

I found that if there is an interesting conversation going on it normaly doesn't die for a while. Many of the technical questions turn our to be interesting too.

I'm going to agree with Chewy (the persona, not the wookie) here. Some of the technical questions can get intersting. I mean, even though this post was not in the maw, there was an extremely funny technical question in The Flood. I forgot it, but some guy has it hyperlinked in his signature as "Most. Embarassing. Post. Ever." Its Hilarious.
Still, it is kinda sad that most intersting posts start out as tech questions. It really should start out as a decent topic, like the "How to kill right" post. THAT became (and probably still is) an interesting post.

lol yout3 ur small snippets at the end of ur posts are great:) ya i have to agree though, answering technical questions is kind of fun, and u learn something too :) but i have to agree: NEVER venture in the Halo 2 forum (New Mombasa) it's awful, i made like my first thread there just now and already there's a flamer. There's probaly at leat 1 flame per thread in that forum, probaly cause half the people there are 7 year olds who haven't taken their ritalin yet, jeez those flamers remind me of hihi *shivers*.

no wait nvm, hihi wasen't a flamer, just a moron.

Well there was a good thread on New Mombassa about the Halo Universe in general and why the flood were created and the ark and stuff. Its almost dead now but it makes a good read if you got time to read the 300+ posts. Good theories too.
