Subject: Halo 1 community is MUCH nicer.

Hey, guys. I'm new to this forum and this is only my second thread, but the second biggest difference between the Halo 1 and Halo 2 community (besides the size) is that the people who play Halo 1 are so much nicer to each other. I just recently started playing Halo for PC and I notice that after every single game there are no excuses made, no trashtalking, and everyone says good game. On these forums I notice it too. Zanzibar makes me want to puke with all of the generally mean and selfish people there, but I haven't seen one of you guys do anything except try to help others and generally joke around and have fun. I'm glad that you guys are different.

PC gamers are generally older then Xboxers and therefore more mature overall. But we have are share of idiots in HaloPC.

Oh yeah. Welcome to the Maw.

When you consider the requisite intelligence needed to run HPC vs. that needed to play H2 on Xbox Live, it's pretty obvious that intelligence is highly correlated with online behavior.

You obviously haven't been here very long.

I'll admit that the Maw is a ton better than Zanzibar, but it seems like this forum has been in a bit of a slide lately.

Welcome, at any rate. I hope you enjoy your stay here.

Yes, Welcome noodles. Despite the community, I don't like it here. But I don't wanna give my reasons because the mods'll find a reason to boot me. Yes, we generaly stay nice here, we occasionaly have the:
"Help! My halo stopped showing text on multiplayer!!! Please! Some one help me!!!"

And occasionally, that's followed by:
"LOL, You N00b. if you don't know, then I don't wanna play you"

But most of the times, people are nice. Just watch out for them :D.

Having not played Halo2 on XBox live, I can't say whether It's better on HPC. However, If the trash talking, racial comments, and generall asinine behaviour on some HPC servers is any indication, H2XBox would probably be just as bad. Probably worse due to the fact that you actually have to LISTEN to these morons instead of reading little white chat text in the corner of your screen.

That is why H2PC will be much more better, because not as many kids could afford Windows Vista, H2PC, and a computer that meets the requirements to play, let alone know how to use them. And PCs are much better than Xboxes. Now PC gamers will be able to experience the grandeur that is Halo 2 with their mouse and keyboard.

And yes, welcome to the Maw, pilesofnoodles! And now for our chant for the initiative. Ahem,

"One of us! One of us! One of us! One of us!"

that is because most people who play older games are nicer. and i have to agree with Master Kim, cause kids are too stupid to USE a computer. half the time in my classes, when we use the computer the teachers have to give out stupid packets on how to do the project. the are writen clearly and are easy to understand, and yet they ask what to do and how to do it and when to do it... how do they sleep at night... computers are the future of all buisness and technology!

Dude, there are some really big -blam!-holes over on XBL. I'm happy that they aren't over here.

ya, much of us are older, or just plain better than the jerks you will find on XBL related stuff. occasionally you will find one on PC, but it is rare.

Welcome to the Maw. It's safer here.......

I agree, but the main reason that it seems I think that way is because you don't hear people yelling in you headset at the top of their lungs calling you names and cussing you out so loud that you have to take your headset off. That happened to me so much in Live, it's ridiculous. But not everybody is an A-hole in PC, you see some people that are just awesome, like me!! lol jk , I almost never talk, only talk to let my team be aware of a sniper or if I need help getting the flag. that's about it
