Wow, I have been here for about 5 minutes. What do I see?
Halo 2 bashing.
I have noticed that the threads here are about Halo 1, but in nearly every thread, there is some jerk who bashes Halo 2.
Example:

Thread title: "The Pillar of Autumn."
The thread starter says "I love the POA, what do you like about it?"
Then some replies later, there is someone who says, "I love the POA!!!! The In Amber Clad SUCKS, just like Halo 2 itself!!!!
As dogbert14 once said a while ago, this forum is for Halo 1 discussion only, not Halo 2 bashing.
Quit it. Just because someone starts a thread about Halo 1 does not give you permission to change the subject and compare Halo 1 to Halo 2. Say something nice about Halo 1, sure, but please, for the love of God, do not bash Halo 2 while you're at it. If you feel the need to complain, then that's what Halo2sucks.com is for.
dogbert14 made a thread about this problem a while ago. He also made the mistake of expressing his own opinion in the thread as well. Just so I don't get flamed, I will not give my opinion on the matter. I am simply asking you guys to quit bashing Halo 2 all of the time, at nearly every given moment.
Thank you for your time, and please follow my advice. Less flaming means a better forum. :)

I see what your saying, but remember that we had an actual thread where we could discuss such beliefs until dogbert complained it was bashing Halo 2. If you actually read the posts, you would see that the main posters actually were having a civil conversation. Oh well, now there is spamming against Halo 2 on the other threads where we could have just vented on that one thread.

And don't tell me the flaming is what got it closed. It was flaming for the beginning and then it transformed into a civil conversation. A moderator had to have seen it or atleast looked in it once in its 6 or 7 pages that it was alive. It wasn't until someone found it a problem that it got closed.

Overall you are right, this is a Halo forum. Halo 2 bashing or comparing should go into a specific thread for that.

that thread was somewhat civilized, but there was more flaming than anything.
ppl kept on bringing the thread back to life. they were overmilking a dead cow.
this forum is for h1 discussion only, not h2 bashing. no thread bashing h2 should be allowed, especially one with so much flaming and arguing. telling a mod to lock the thread was the right thing to do; i was abiding by the rules.
if u twits feel the need to "vent", thats what h2s.com is for. besides, i told the mod to lock the thread, not delete it.
but to be honest, i am quite happy with the end result.


You cannot bring a thread back to life if it was never dead. That thread was consistently within the top 1 or 2 threads in this forum.

I don't know what you consider flaming, but there was almost none, aside from the 1 or 2 people that felt like they needed to be poopy heads.

Even just before that thread was deleted, new ideas were being brought up, which made it one of the more enjoyable threads to post in.

You've been acting very immature since you've joined...hmm...i think i might have to report you...seeing as i would be abiding by the rules if i reported you since you're such a little "twit" Let people talk, encourage discussion, don't squelch it.

Notice how not a single person has ever backed you up for any of the things you've said?...

Not true. I checked this forum a LOT while the thread was still up. There were times where I could not even find the thread on the 5th page.

I don't know what you consider flaming, but there was almost none, aside from the 1 or 2 people that felt like they needed to be poopy heads.
Again, false. There were many "poopy heads" in that thread, one of which was yourself as well. I, like dogbert, saw you flaming in there, and if you tell me otherwise, you obviously do not remember.

Even just before that thread was deleted, new ideas were being brought up, which made it one of the more enjoyable threads to post in.
You call flaming and arguing like an 8 year old enjoyable?
Let people talk, encourage discussion, don't squelch it.
Any ethical person would not allow flaming to continue.

Notice how not a single person has ever backed you up for any of the things you've said?...
Well, here's one!
I am not flaming you; sorry if I sound like it. But really, if you're going to make an argument, make it one based on true facts, not ones you apparently thought up.

I agree, people from both sides should stop it. If you ever need to then theres an entire forum dedicated to people who -blam!- all the time so if you ever think your clever insulting the most successful xbox game developer or you just like getting attention by all means click here.

omfg u have got to be kidding me the only ppl that clame this is "Halo 2 Bashing" are the ones that are afraid to admit that they suck at halo 1 cause it actually takes skill and there isn't a huge auto-aim

Do you remember the weekly update threads? Every other post got off topic, and barely anyone actually asked any questions. Why the hell does a Halo vs Halo2 thread, with several very valid arguments deserve to get deleted? Sure, the discussion was heated, but barely anyone resorted to open flaming. (If the thread still existed, i would show you) Theres no evidence to ever prove anyone right or wrong on this subject, i don't see why you're still talking.

I don't know what the hell you're smoking, but that thread never got off of the first page, this thread is so dead, it couldn't have gone far. (I did notice it was hard to find when you click on the specific page number instead of the title of the thread, so that the number gets darkened, but the title does not) Anyway, thats irrelevant.

What does matter, is that some threads need to be excluded from regular circumstances. I know that some people are extremely immature about a few topics. In New Mombasa, there is a thread about Halo vs. Halo2, in which someone who was acting immature had all of his posts deleted by Reigniko, I still think highly of him for that. He decided that it was a good discussion, and he wasn't going to let a few people ruin it for everyone. Just ignore the immatures of the community, people will be people, just ignore their testosterone (Super nerds may have depleted their testosterone, and reverted to estrogen) fits, and look at what they're really trying to say, instead of nit-picking at the bull-blam!-.

Gracias.

i dont halo bash at all although i do see it alot. i think its more of a trend of "the original is always better"

i used to think the same that halo1 was better but i never said it to anyone. why do i have to brag about what game i like?

Its like a civil war within the forums. I wish people could just live in peace. There just games, dont get me wrong, i love Halo and Halo 2 a lot. But in the end there just games, and they shouldn't be fought over which of the two is better.

If you don't want to hear negetive statements, then the Bungie forums are not for you. You can either deal with it, or just not come here.

Honestly, a halo 2 sucks thread belongs in the Halo 2 forum. It really should have been moved there instead of locked/deleted. In fact, I would have liked to make a case as to why Halo 2 is superior to the original.

The fact is that, in the end, you will always like the game you played first better. I played Halo 2 first, and I will always like it better for its lack of a good pistol, Arbiter and ending that really made you think. I will bet that people here hate Halo 2 because it lacks a good pistol, has the Arbiter and does not have a true ending that leaves no room for theories.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

THIS IS A HALO FORUM!!!

So most of the people who post here are die hard halo fans.

What we hate is when people like u come here and complain and add nothing good to the forums but threads like this.


The people here compare the 2 games. Sense they cleary like Halo 1 better they will say H2 is bad.

Solution? It only happens alot here so deal with it. better here then in new Mombasa

Use some common sense. If we actually enjoyed Halo 2, what reason would there be for us to play Halo:CE let alone post in a section of Bungie.net dedicated to just Halo:CE? You'll just have to accept the fact that many of us don't like the way the Halo series has gone with Halo 2.
