"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to."

Yesterday I couldn't get anyone to beta test my infection gametype, so I thought I'd go to the classifieds - the only allowed place for recruiting people and populating your customs. But that forum is completely empty, so where can I find people to test it?

I would like to post it in the Reach forums, because it is 100% Reach related and it would make a nice social change to the common arguments in there, usually about Armor Lock. I'm obiously not going to post in there because it is against the forum rules, I just want to stress that something should be done about the classifieds.

I forgot to mention that when I went on there all the thread have under 10 replies, most having 0 replies, or the odd 1 reply that the OP added. I mean, ghost town much?

The classifieds don't look active because there isn't any discussion value in any of the threads in that forum, it's just threads for recruitment. Personally I don't like how it's set up as a forum because it doesn't serve the same purpose as any of the other forums.

Even though the classifieds are used for recruitment, I don't recommend using it. You should find other ways to recruit friends for a game, for infection for example you can join a couple of groups like this one I just quickly found.

Hello! I'm Bunie.net's resident medical student (hell i'm sure there are more but I'm the only one who openly declares it!) I love my emblem, and I am periodically active.
I have a Twitter

I think the classifieds' should be incorporated into the community forum - after all, its community content in there.
