Its come to my attention that alot of people are writing them and placing them in the New Mombasa thread. According the the New Mombasa description, it is ment for Halo 2 discussion about general concepts and campaign. Why then, are Halo 3 stories and ideas being allowed there? They belong in the flood and I for one think they should be moved. It doesnt make sense to me...

Would Halo 3 stories belong in the Underground?

They're not. The problem is that they pop up in such a fast rate that the moderators can't always keep up. Second, they don't belong in the Flood either. Topics about Halo 3 belong in the Underground.

Halo 3 stories fit into the generic "Halo Fanfiction" thingy, which is in New Mombasa. It doesn't really matter if it's set before or after or whatever, because there's been stories about Halo 1 before, and stories about Forerunners, and every which way whatever.

So even if they're set after Halo 2, doesn't mean they don't belong there. Halo fanfiction, I guess, now belongs in New Mombasa.

Oops, I was thinking about Halo 3 topics in general, not fanfiction. But it's nice to see answer on the fan fiction subject.

Before Halo 2 shipped New Mombasa was the 'Theory' forum. I think it still is. Nothing hasn't really changed. I still see threads about the Ark, Humans, or Flood. It only makes sense now that Halo 3 [yet to be confirmed] is gonna be released [soon™] that everyone is coming up with their theories again.

But then if it is a Halo 3 topic it should be in the Underground along with the other Halo 3 related topics.

I dont think it really belongs anywhere but the flood. The Underground is ment for actual Bungie things. Halo 3 has not been announced so therefore in our eyes it "does not exsist." Although, according to TGP, they are ok in New Mombassa as fanfics. Even though I think thats odd, he is the moderator.

All halo fanfic, for whatever reason, has made its home in new mombasa. I know i originally posted my fanfic in The Underground oh so long ago, and it was moved sometime later (by tgp, i believe) to new mombasa. My fanfic wasn't necessarily about the halo2 campaign, but based itself off of the storyline in halo2 and 1 very much so. And since it wouldn't fit in The Library (because that's halo ce only), and it doesn't really fit anywhere else, New Mombasa makes the most sense.

That is until bnet gets its own fanfic forum.
