With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

Look at the quote in my sig. If you've read First Strike, then you're probably familiar with that whole chapter. Just the tone in how "a pity" is written screams evil and rutheless.

Another Example:

"Soon the Great Journey shall begin," the Prophet of Truth continued, and its claws curled into fists. "And let nothing in this universe impede our progress."

You forget that after losing over 500 ships at the Uneven Elephant(I love that name), at least 60 at Halo, and over 150 at Reach and then they say, " Only a minor set back " you have to figure they are pretty well off and ruthless.

I voted for ruthless for all those reasons and I wanted to see if anyone was a covenant spy sent to gather info on human tech and to glorify his master to reel people into slavery by poisening thier minds with fake images of a better life.

I put humble, because I havn't heard anything about the prophets; until after I voted when I read all of your posts.

I voted ruthless because they are willing to eliminate an entire race of lifeforms. What more do you have to say?

I would say ruthless, but Bungie's idea obviously just comes from our history because through out our history various humans attempted genocide or assimilation as well slavery so I say they're only human.

I don't get why they would be humble.
