Subject: The Last Stand of the 300

Nearly 2500 years ago, 300 spartans made their last stand at the Battle of Thermopylae against the evil Persian empire. From the very beginning, they all knew they were going to fall. The battle was one that they could not win, but they still fought on, holding the evil empire back for days in the hopes that freedom and liberty would one day prevail.

Now, we are in the middle of a very similar fight. Microsoft, the evil empire, has come to squeeze the last bits of life out from Halo 2. Our forces have been wiped out, and now just over 300 Spartans(and a handful of Elites) remain. For us, this is a battle that cannot be won and we can do nothing but delay the inevitable. Yet we continue on with our fight.

Halo 2 will not go out with a bang. Like the Spartans at the Battle of Thermopylae, we will go out fighting tooth and nail to the last breathe.

Keep up the good fight my fellow Spartans, for the faint hope that one day Halo 2's multiplayer may again be returned to the world. And to show Microsoft what a few hundred spartans are capable of. For Cat and Mouse on Coagulation! for Zombies on Foundation! For Tower of Power on Ascension! Augh! Augh! Augh!

I want this to be played at my funeral, and I want my casket to be shot into space.

On april 15, 2010, Microsoft threatened to permanently shut off Original Xbox LIVE, and kill Halo 2 as we know it . . . But all will know, that 300 Spartans, gave the last breath - to defend it! This, is, SPARTA

It means you have shown heroism, fought in the face of spam and flaming to defend your thread and or your opinions. You, as a heroic member, stand and fight in the face of moronic replies, all caps titles, and reposts.
You are a cut above the rest.
You are a heroic member.

I'm sorry fellow Spartans I have let you down. I went MIA 7 hours ago.

Signatures are for squares.

I'll be fighting until the very last second. (And I do mean that quite literally. Either the second that Microsoft boots my ass, or if I'm the last man online.)

All this at the risk of my Xbox's health.

Close, but the plague killed those infected with it, and the ignorant are still alive.
I wish ignorance was a plague.

I was too late for the fight.
