We are all going to get banned aren't we?

The subtitle for one of the missions in halo two is " 10,000 year war" in which that is how long the flood have been out and that is why there is a shield up.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

I don't know if we can take mission subtitles as the highest form of canon if you know what I mean. They are often jokes and other random tidbits.
Seeing as this is a transmission from the installation itself to the Ark as a report I'd say it's more reliable especially given that it is giving us timetable to the second of the outbreak.

It is canon seeing how it tells us how long the "war" was going on and it is in the main game; far more canon than a explanation for a MP map.

Mmm...
I dunno. It just seems that something created specifically to fill a hole in the canon, these transmissions, would be a better source. I've never seen 10,000 years referenced anywhere else when describing the outbreak on 05.

last time i checked those transmissions were for that specific area alone, not the entire ring.

In the second transmission it says that all of the other research sites on the ring are reporting normal functions at that time. So I think we can assume that this is the origin point of the outbreak.

i am not shawn from youtube, I created this username because I thought it was an unique name but if I could change it I would since it did not belong to me originally

Aren't graveminds the top of the change of flood evolution?

Does this mean that the current Gravemind is an infected Forerunner?

LF.Xx.3273 research and containment facility have all replied [systems normal] within expected constraints

Sorry I should have been more specific. All sites that have the Flood are reporting normal besides the delta site. Which is why I'm assuming you bolded research.
