Subject: The Final Few: Our Story (One Year Anniversary)

I also want Halo 2 back guys! Halo 2 was the start of xbox live. I was 13 when I started playing this game, I'm now 19. if it wasn't for halo 2 I wouldn't have an xbox! The Halo 2 community doesn't even compare to Call of Duty or Battlefield. Halo 2 was a place where you could have fun & not worry about the next guy cussing you out. Also Congrats to the Final Few, Thank you guys. I just want Halo 2 back.

All throughout history great empires rise and fall. How you ask?
Two reasons:
1. Economic failure because of either inflation or socialistic programs.
2. War. Their armies were spread too thin and too far from home.

The United States has bases all around the world in "hazardous" areas and it's economy collapses it seems every 20 years. Do you really think that history won't change? Do you really think that you can run the world?

Really wish I had xbl in halo2's prime... Hopefully one day we will have a remake and be able to relive those experiences again.


Hope is something we cannot give up.

I saw joe campbell in a post earlier today and it reminded me to bump this. If we don't it might get locked and disappear like one one of my threads did. It's an automatic thing if there are not enough posts.

I don't recall ever seeing that happen before. Unless you mean thread archiving.

Archiving is a nice way to say your thread has been locked...no posts or editing allowed. What that has to do with archiving is beyond me.

It's to keep people from bumping them in the main forums. After a few months or so a thread is automatically locked and kept for people who wish to view them in the future. No one can unlock them either.

Sup, I'm Vette. My online name is usually Corvette19, so if you see me at another website, that's my name. I first started playing Halo when I was in the 4th grade, now I've graduated. I believe that was 2002-2003? Anyways, I've been with Halo for a long time. I mod Halo PC/CE so just hit me up if you want to. My Xfire=Corvette19. That's all I can say pretty much..

I played halo 2 since its beginning..... That's a part of my life I would trade so much just to like re-live it for a few minutes.

I would have to say Halo 2 was the best time of my life, I would pay millions for it back. I hate to say but nothing will ever compare in my lifetime. ever. I cried when i turned my box on and it said i couldnt connect anymore.

  • 02.21.2012 4:16 PM PDT

Thought I'd drop in and give some love. Wow it's cool to see such support for the game I loved so much. You guys are all great.

Never, ever melee attack a hunter from behind, just don't.

Wow.
That is some serious love for Halo 2.
Heck, I'm saluting you now, that was pretty impressive. Makes me appreciate my games a lot more now.

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

I'm sorry to bump, but it's almost the 2nd anniversary of the Halo 2 final few. I definitely don't want this thread to be dead for that occasion.

Oh! You ought to repost this in the Halo 2 forum group to preserve it for when the Halo forums become condensed!

Well... You know... The OP at least.

Keep bumping, Bungie does not know a treasure when they see one.

What are you blaming Bungie for? It's a mod's job to sticky things, right?

They work for Bungie, so I blame Bungie. You don't like it, too damned bad.

They don't work for Bungie, they're volunteers. The way the mods act, their opinions, etc are not a representation of Bungie. Just because a moderator doesn't sticky this thread doesn't mean Bungie doesn't like this story. In fact, they've shown great love for the people that were involved with this. I'm sure joe campbell would agree with me.

Also, please stop with the unneeded hostility.

I tend to do that when talking to a brick wall.

Bungie has policies and all adhere to those policies, the mods are not free to do anything they want, working for free or not. Volunteers are especially held to policy and can be terminated if they don't adhere to said policy.

It's says Bungie at the top of the page so mods are most definitely representative of Bungie. Really a silly point to bring up, they work for Bungie...for free. The mods all have bosses and the bosses all work for Bungie and Bungie makes policy.

Complaints can be made about Bungie's policies without directly calling out a mod, which is never a good idea in my opinion. I do things differently that you do, so what? Stop playing the 'corrector of all statements', you do that a lot about nit-picky stuff and it's annoying as hell. Worst of all it's never a discussion with you, it's just you explaining how you are right, no exceptions.

The way you're acting is pathetic. Definitely when you consider the fact you're a middle aged man with grandchildren. Please, for the love of God, grow up. It's absolutely sad that you choose to make enemies with a 19 year old who has differing opinions than you on the Internet about video games.

Don't you realize you're getting a tad over zealous with this? Bringing up policies that the mods have to adhere to? I'm sorry but I highly doubt that the mods are failing to adhere to any Bungie policies for not making this thread a sticky.


At the same time, you're right about moderators having a policy they have to follow. I just don't think that policy has anything to do with Bungie's disposition (For lack of a better word) on this thread. I'm wondering if anyone submitted the idea to sticky this thread to a moderator to begin with. Maybe we ought to try.

Worst of all it's never a discussion with you, it's just you explaining how you are right, no exceptions.I give my input on things. This is a forum. That's what happens here. I'm not the one that has a tantrum each time someone has a differing opinion to me. I respect your opinion but I also explain why I believe what I believe. That is discussion. What do you believe a discussion is? Someone stating something and everyone agreeing with them?

Also, it's never really a discussion with you, is it? All you ever do is act like a child trying to tell me I have no business posting here. You were calling me out for having an abrasive personality. All that seems to be now is a perfect example of the pot calling the kettle black.

Syx wouldn't go through the trouble of posting all those links to preserve Halo 2 for no reason. That is a MASSIVE thing only someone dedicated would do. I'm sad that he doesn't get the respect he deserves here.

Wow, crazy to think its been almost two years.

We sure had a great time during those last few days.
