KOTOR where this happens:
""I AM MAVIT DO NOT ERRUPT " and then..he vanished as did the fury, as did the violence, but in it's place, an everlasting love.

You may not believe me, but go outside on an autumn night, and you can hear...the whisper of the mavkit"

I love the flood. It's pretty much the edited 4Chan section of b.net. I'm okay with that. I've always been part of the floodorians, and where else could we talk about non-bungie related things?

My problem with nuking the Flood is that, once nuked where will it's regulars go?
Reach forum? Universe forum? Community forum?

My point is that if it is nuked, we will be seeing an increase of stupidity/trolling in other forums which were somewhat "nice" before. People from the Flood won't just leave, they will relocate to a new forum and take it over. All of the moderating/banning in the world won't do much good once that happens.

I say leave it as it is now, at least we know where to avoid posting.

They'd just move to private groups, floodians have already been doing that, for reasons like "The flood is not the same anymore!" and stuff like that.

Even though I suspect the flood is always pretty much the same.

Then, get rid of the Halo forums, and make users move to private groups. Makes more sense, because Bungie is no longer making Halo, but they are still gonna need an Off-Topic forum.

We're not all like that. As Poison sang 'Every rise has its thorn', every forum has its trolls.

Also, for those saying yes without any reason, here.

Wake me, when you need me.

Uh, no. Don't get me wrong, I dislike the flood a lot at many times, but nuking it would just cause chaos all over the site. Then there would be nowhere to discuss off-topic things, so people would just stay in private groups or leave the site.

  • 07.05.2011 2:13 PM PDT

It should have stayed hidden, like it was before all the forums were added to the drop down menu. It would lower the amount of new users becoming "floodians", which the Flood really needs less of.

I've already agreed with that multiple times, I'm actually expecting that the Halo forums merge with the universe forum after 7/7/11, it just makes sense Bungie aren't working on Halo anymore.

I mean we don't have a Gnop! forum do we?

Don't touch the flood. Stricter rules will only encourage me to break them and it it not very hard to make an alt.

Yes, lets piss off 2/3 of B.net's population. Even Achronos knows that's a VERY bad idea, if it wasn't he would have nuked it long ago, as he hates us.

Кланяються мені!

Iv'e always hated the Flood forum. I can't say I unbiastly agree to this because irregardless of why it should go, I just think it should go. The immaturity there literally drains intelligence.

  • 07.05.2011 4:19 PM PDT

It's the internet. DEAL WITH IT!

  • 07.05.2011 4:40 PM PDT

If any forum should be nuked, it should be the Reach forum. Why have the Reach froum?! It's nothing but a bunch of idiots complaining, flaming, and people intolerant of someone elses opinions. Not to mention that Reach is in the hands of 343i.

Bungie nuke the Reach forum!

I would say if anything the Flood should be a second priority.

Holy crap OP, stop overreacting

The flood is fine, if any forum should be nuked it's the Reach forum.

how happy is a midget likely to be once you start melting cheese on them?

But seriously, nuking it wouldn't solve much of anything.

Does anyone even read these?

Farking hell this thread is still going? I can't believe some of you would even suggest getting rid of the off-topic forum.

Adding in some subs would be nice to organise it.

Whoo.

Really not getting the "Pro-flood but Anti-Reach" comments.

I mean the flood and the Reach forum are basically the same thing, only real difference being that one has a topic and isn't frequently moderated and the other doesn't have a topic and is frequently moderated.

Oh and the flood is "older", but thats it, those three things are the only differences.

I never even go to the flood. The Reach forum is way more fun.
I agree, I thought they were done for after the whole PETA ordeal.

Let's nuke Nevada while we're at it. They have the highest unemployment in the country. It's really nothing but a burden on the rest of us. Sure, 87.9% of people there are employed tax-payers, but that 12.1% is a nasty bunch. Nuke the whole state, I say.

Canada isn't that important that it needs two of the same threads on page one.

The Flood is fine, stop overreacting.
