Sounds like a bunch of Justin Bieber wannabes in here. I bet you all wear skinny jeans too.

Apparently people have forgotten that posting leaked content, or content speculated to be leaked on these forums will earn you a permanent ban from Bungie.net's forums. Read the Forum Rules and Code of Conduct if you haven't already:

*Leaks and Scans Are Prohibited
As excitement and news continues to circulate in popular gaming publications around the world, we thought it would be prudent to remind you that posting scans of copyrighted material (such as a picture printed in a magazine) is illegal.

As a result, doing so is prohibited under the Bungie.net Terms of Use and Code of Conduct, by which all users here have agreed that they will not:
Upload files or post messages that contain photos, music, software or other material protected by intellectual property laws, rights of privacy or publicity, or any other applicable law unless you own or control the rights thereto or have received all necessary consents.
Bungie has notified the moderators of these forums that posting scans of copyrighted material will result in a minimum ban of thirty days, with possible permanent ban.

* Any user claiming to have, linking to, asking for, or otherwise discussing material that is claimed to be inappropriately "leaked" will be banned for a minimum of thirty days with possible permanent ban, regardless of whether the leak is real or fake. "Leaked" material includes any material not officially released by Bungie via its website, its employees in their official capacity, or to the press.


The reason why I posted this is because I've seen a lot of threads with a link to Halo 3: ODST's achievements. Now, this has no proof behind it other than pure speculation, however it is still considered "Leaked Information" until proven false. So unless you feel like getting slapped with a 30 day ban, or possible permanent ban from one of the Forum Ninjas, I highly recommend that you do not spread this link around.

Four shots, four kills, reload, repeat. This is the work of a sniper.

I was about to make this exact topic, due to the fact that people keep posting the achievement list, and they need to stop.

There are two things on this forum that piss me off;
Idiots and group invites.
What's even worse, is that I can never seem to get away from either of them ¬_¬

Yeah, I'd watch out for yourself, or you'll get banned for impersonating a mod or something like that.

I know you aren't, but you know these Ninjas, they'll get ya for anything if they can...

I never said I was a moderator... I have a simple "Member" status. I don't even have anything fancy like "Noble Mythic Member". Anyone with half a brain will know that I'm just a typical member trying to warn others.

Yep. Which is exactly why I posted this, people are apparently dumb enough to not read the Code of Conduct, or at the very least the forum rules.

I say don't bother warning people, if they are dumb enough to post leaked information, I say let Darwinism take it's course, and raise the collective IQ on this forum.

Thank goodness we don't have such confining rules on other boards.

The board rules plastered on every forum are great. In theory, these should be the greatest, most civil, intelligent boards on the internet. But they're not. Bungie.net is a collection of forums in denial, and the only saving grace is the chance of speaking directly with the developers of the games we love.

Everyone's going to know this stuff and they're going to talk about it on other forums and they're going to come here and they're going to keep getting banned. It's a pointless cycle.

“Fear is the path to the Shoryuken. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to.......Shoryuken Spam.”

Well Heretic was leaked then confirmed to be a remake of Midship so information can easily be leaked. I'm sure people wiil get over it eventually.
