people that don't know anything, have only "member" in thier name (not everytime) but sometimes since they're new.

Well duh, do you think a person who has Xbox Live and can play halo whenever they want will want to stop and read every book. Im a true Fan since i read them.

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

Because a large majority of those that play Halo only do so because it is a great FPS. In the grand scheme of things very few actually give a rip about what is going on, just as long as the gameplay is entertaining and they get their BR slayer in high doses they are good to go.

Must of the people won't know nothing have only "memebers" in thier name (not everytime)

Some Halo fans know nothing about Halo because they cannot spell and therefore have poor reading and grammar skills.

Reading, it's the new cool!

People keep telling me to get a life... I am getting an education, I have a lovely girlfriend and alot of friends... I thought this was having a life? Gues I was wrong...

Because most "Halo fans" only played Halo 3 and are suddenly experts on everything when it comes to it. Like, everyone who doesnt die in 2 shots are SPARTAN's, all "Main characters" are SPARTAN's and even those people like are SPARTAN's... Everyone is SPARTAN's these days.
It is clear they dont know squat about Halo.

They're six books in total. Names Are Halo: The Fall of Reach, Halo: The Flood, Halo: First Strike, , Halo: Ghosts of Onyx, Halo: Contact Harvest, Halo: The Cole Protocol

Extra Books are like Halo Graphic Novel, a collection of four short stories. And the gap between Halo 2 and Halo 3 called Halo: Uprising

And 2 comic books will come out called Helljumper and Black Spartan and one that i can't wait a book about the Forerunner

It has always bugged me too. Sadly, it is never going to stop. I've been a member here for 5 years and have been reading everything on this site for 6 and a half, and it has always been like this. Whenever a new game is announced, people who have never read the books or done anything besides played through the games come to the forums and talk about things they have no idea what they are talking about. Don't worry though, once there is no new upcoming game these people tend to go away for the most part. Sadly, we have at least a good year and a half til that happens.

Not sure I'll be able to stand over a year and a half reading threads saying that Reach is the Legendary Ending planet.

Agreed, I'm pretty annoyed too when I suggest it and they don't take it. They are really good books and IMO help make the experience of Halo better. Especially when ODST comes out I have a feeling it will satisfy the true fans more then the FPS excellence fans.
