O_O you looked at your friends balls when "he" sat on your head O_o

what i mean, is maybe make a fanfic forum. I think this applies to alot of other members as well; its just really annoying to have to sift through the abyss of the New Mombosa Forum to find a friend's fanfic, what do you guys and girls think? Dont you think it would be easier. And in a sticky in that forum there should be a popularity poll, or an improvements thread, where someone links the fanfic and says what he think should be changed or expanded on, or explained more thoroughly, what do you say?

Ummm...no. We don't need extra forums for every little thing. We don't need seperate forums for Bungie future and oldschool. We don't really need an extra forum for Halo 2 Vista. And we don't need an extra forum for fanfics. It's all just so terribly inefficient.

Yeah but that's different. In my oppinion we should have a FanFic forum, and we should combine all the Halo forums. Or mabye a campaign and a MP forum. But there groups for everything. You just can't make a group the official group for B.net in a category of something.

Also when I submitted my FanFics in that group a while ago, nobody read them, or responded to them, and nobody would anser me in sticky threads or anything. I felt like I was being ignored.

Plus, not everyone would join a group for one thing. Most members here just join to interact in the forums, and don't bother with the chapters.

Well, theres New Mombasa for Campaign and general Halo 2, Zanzibar for Multi-player, Optimatch for Playlist discussion, The Maw and The Library for Halo on both platforms. And then theres the Official Fanfic Group, specifically made for Fanfics.

I think we all have to wait and see what Bungie's next project is. Perhaps than we can start demanding for all the Halo boards to become a single forum etc.

this has been discussed at length before, and for the time being, no changes will be made to the site that huge. Not for some time, at least. There is the fanfic group (check sig) and the other fanfic's are posted in new mombasa and elsewhere (depending on whether they're about halo or not).

Truthfully though, fanfic has been dying down lately. So now would not be the most appropriate time to make a fanfic forum. When the next game comes out, or maybe even the next halo novel, then it might spike up again, but before then there is really no need.

With B.B. gone, the passion of Bungie.net has lessened.

I'd advise sending them to Halo.bungie.org instead. They've got a pretty big fanfic database. I think I sent one chapter there, long ago... and ended up not continuing with it.

Things tend to get lost here pretty easily, even members.

Also when I submitted my FanFics in that group a while ago, nobody read them, or responded to them. thats exactly what happened to me, i was thinking if we had another forum for fanfics, then people would pay more attention to different fanfics, cuz in official fanfic group, if ur not known, nobody really cares about youre fanfic. I think it would make it much easier. Or they could make two different sectins of the NM forum and one could be fanfics and the other halo 2 general.

That's not going to happen here.

If people want a "home" for their fanfics, they should look into http://halo.bungie.org's fanfic setup.
