Did you guys notice how much the girls from PA swear. Every second word is f you, f this, a$$hole and whatever else. I guess spending endless hours in front of a monitor, typing replies to meaningless topics turns your brain into mush.

We're obviously superior, because we play Halo, a superior game. Nuff Said.

That's probably the most ignorant thing I've ever read. You're like the Hitler of video games.

I missed the update too. :(

I'd suggest checking http://halo.bungie.org on or around Wednesday; they usually put a copy of it in their archives by then.

From Penny Arcade's front page...

"Bungie decided to make their most recent Halo 2 update in our forum. They are all really nice guys and had they told me of their intentions I would have begged them to reconsider. They post these updates in forums all the time but I don’t think they really understood just how bad ours is."

They are right it is a piece of junk!

XBL: FTG Spartan
But you were dead a thousand times. Hopeless encounters successfully won. A man long dead, grafted to machines your builders did not understand. You follow the path, fitting in to an infinite pattern.
Yours to manipulate, to destroy and rebuild.
Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time.
I know who you are.
You are Destiny.

What the hell? I click on the weekly update link and it -blam!- takes me to a log in screen. This is bull. Now I gotta wait till it goes into the Bungie archives. Never post at penny again.

Quite simply, the Penny Arcade forums are nothing but a sh­ithole. End of discussion.

look what they posted, after deleting the 20 + flames :

This topic is locked because there was a lot of very needless flamming and harrasment generated by it. To be honest, it was pretty -blam!- embarassing. However, I will say that I do stand behind the forums as being good. I know Gabe's comments pissed off some people, myself included, but you have to look at it from his point of view. One of his friends signs on and gives us the chance to be the first ones to hear about some news on Half Life 2 and we promptly turned around and dropped our pants. That said, I do not defend what he said. He lumped a lot of users together and insulted us as a group rather than saying "There were some -blam!- who ..."

Anyway, despite our inital reaction, we really do appreciate bungie stopping by our little forums with their weekly update. I am bringing this thread out of it former deletion so people can still have a good read.

Normally I welcome PMs if you disagree with my modderation\administration, however, I just got back celebrating my birthday up at a friends cabin and I have been offline until this point. I have close to 20pms to catch up on, a ton of threads, and phpBB released new security releases. You will need to give me a few days to catch up.

A note to mods : Please do not lock\move\delete\reply to this thread without talking to Deni, Ramius, or myself. Im not trying to go over your heads, I just need to get some things straightened out. You guys have done an amazing job handling this, I just am coming in late...

whaha, wasn't one of these mod's just as jackasz as all of the rest of these flaming bastaerds? 'great job on handling it folx!' yeah right, if they knew how to handle it, they locked the shid down after 3 flames... i just can't stop flaming them either. altho this is the right thing to do, no offense is taken from alphamonkey. the other mod's however need some serious asz-whoopin'. all these users need it tbh. why not invite them for a online-halo match? to show them who's boss? or get them to change their forums to worship halo?

lol now im gettin delerious.

Hmmm...I saw someone mention on here that it would be a good idea to fill in all the "CENSORED"s from the weekly updates after Halo 2's released, and personally I agree, that's an incredibly good idea. It would give us all a chance to see if our guesses were right. (The only downside would be that it would put major spoilers in the update archive, but with a little warning on it for people who hate spoilers and it should be fine.)

i agree, like highlights or something, for example when it says CENSORED, you need to highlight it, and it'll become visible.

let see how many people now try that out before halo2 is released ;-)

Hey, this is kinda off subject, but I guess you could relate to it out of the CENSORED's. A while back, some members were contemplating on a few CENSORED's being about a new pistol. I thought about this, but soon dismissed it. A few weeks later, I bought the Halo book series and read them all. In the third book, First Strike, a secret humans weapon cache was found. In this cache were two weapons, exactly descripted as the submachine gun and battle rifle. Also, there was a pistol. The book explained that the pistol had a bigger kick and was a little more powerful. I hope this can solve some problems about the CENSORED's :)

I agree, It would be really smart to reveal all of the CENCERED’s so that "when” (Key word) Halo 2 releases people can read what they say before or after they beat the game! because then you can read, lets say, the names of the explained Multi-Player maps, or the secret lightmap or bump mapped details so people know what to look out for!!! Or even the things that people say in the game! Or anything else I didn't mention! If I were Frankie, I would!!!

It progressed to some flame war, but it started out of nowhere. Some Penny Arcade member started sayin stuff about Frankie and his update invading the website, assuming they would be happy. Other PA members started talking about how angry they were, calling the bungie members morons and stuff. We didn't really do anything, so I guess the P.A. members just wanted to like, vent some anger. They get really angry. Another factor is that Frankie was banned from the Penny Arcade Forums. The PA members were trying to come up with a good reason why they did it (there is none). Whatever, I just don't think we should post over at Penny Arcade forums. As in, like, never again. Ever. Never ever.
