honestly the mods at 343 have the intelligence level of immortal josh, so don't pay attention to them.
What I don't understand is 343's refusal to address any of the canon concerns.
Of all the popular scifi franchises that I've known, Halo is quite possibly the worst when it comes to feedback, especially when it comes to the concern of canon rap3.
Back then, before the game, even Eric Nylund would on some occasions be very generous and answered questions on the story.
But now, he's practically forbidden to answer any questions about Halo's story, because you know, don't bite the hand that feeds you.
It's funny though, I recall reading that Nylund and Bungie disagreed on what was the correct depiction about Reach, but he obviously got overruled and was forced to write that terrible Journal. And so to this day, he denies responsibility for it anymore.
But regarding your comments about mods, I am inclined to agree somewhat. For the most part, there really are no mods. There are only your basic admins who are community directors, but basically know jack-sh1t about lore and lack critical reading comprehension. I don't blame them, it's not their job to give intelligent answers. And then there's admins who really have control over the canon, but don't count on for any responses to them. And yet oddly, instead of posting on their own forums, they post mostly on Bungie.org and neogaf. That's bullsh1t in my opinion. And then there are your sycophants, recruited from Bungie.org, whose basic duty as "community leaders" are to defend against any criticism of 343.
But you what, I look forward to Karen Traviss. She's well known for arguing with the fanbase and outrightly demonizing them.
But at least she gives feedback, and so does Bear.
343 knows that bungie -blam!- up be they won't outright say it since it is bungie and halo.
And i love karen and bear for their writing,experience, and them not being afraid to put people in their place.
