Locked posts strike again! Yoozel, if some random person asks "how do i change my avatar?" in the Underground, instead of telling them how and locking it can't you just delete it and pm them the answer or something? I just opened the flood in a new window and theres a lot of weird people...

'i am stupid'
'why the blam are there different screws?'

This is getting way more retarded than usual, I want to see posts like: 'what other games do you play and why do you like them?' or 'what is your favourite browser?' or 'my computer sucks - what internet security do you recommend?' rather than pointless crap that makes no sense.


*Points to the links* See? That's exactly why I'm starting to lose interest in that forum and why my group now houses the new flood.

Here's an idea, start such topics! You can't sit around and wait for the world to do things, take measures into your own hands and do it yourself.

Good point.

I'll be on my own side.

one good thing is that most people who actually want to post on the forums(intelligently) stick to the Septagon. then there are others who want to use the forums to yell at Bungie because Backwash doesnt have starting grenades.

i do agree, that the descriptions need changing.

-The Flood: Forum for off topic discussion.

-The Underground:Forum for Old School Bungie discussion.

Agreed. I don' think that it should be also used for "Bungie General" because that too general. At the moment people could claim that Halo 2 does related to Bungie in general.

I would do something like

The Underground, discussion of classic Bungie games

The Septagonn, help improve the 7th column/ Bungie Studios discussion

The Flood, off topic discussion

Good idea. However, i like the descriptions found in HFCS:

The Underground: Discussions related to Bungie general – old games, the Studio as a whole, Tijuana Mamas, etc..

The Septagon: The official forum of the 7th Column and our Community. Go here to talk about community stuff, Bungie.net and world domination.

New Mombasa: Dedicated forum for anything and everything related to Halo 2 single player and other assorted Halo 2 things.

Zanzibar: Dedicated forum for anything and everything related to Halo 2 multiplayer.

Optimatch: Discuss the matchmaking playlists and suggest new ones.

The Maw: Forum devoted to all things related to the PC/Mac versions of Halo.

The Library: Want to talk about the Xbox version of Halo? Do it here.

The Gallery: We post zany pictures, you get to write your own captions.

The News: Discuss news stories from the Bungie.net front page.

Voting Booth: All polls, all the time. Go here to vote in official Bungie polls.

The Classifieds: This forum is for promoting and advertising your group, clan or event.

The Flood: The official Off-Topic forum – discuss anything and everything here so long as it doesn't break our rules.

of curse the only problem I see is where would people talk about Halo 3? with my setup they would be posting in the septagon instead of the underground
but as it is now a locked sticky says THIS IS NOT A HALO BOARD

They should just say "Halo 3 discussion is to be confined to personal chapters"

we all know its coming sooner or later so they could make a forum of it now, but they havn't actully admitted that there making anything so that would work

Yep agreed, there needs to be a halo3 forum sooner rather than later so we can actually chose to avoid it rather than have it put in any forum thats not related to halo.

Well currently there cannot be a HAL0 3 forum because Bungie still denies it existence (contrary to what Mr. Gates says). Right now all HAL0 3 rumors probibly belong in New Mombossa.

The Underground does need a name change too. Look a it. It has five threads that Are Not locked.


Wow. I thought you were exaggerating, but I checked and there really are only 5 unlocked threads.
