Subject: You People...

I've played Halo, as most of you probably have, through the entire franchise. I bought an xbox just to play Halo 2, and have extensively played online since. Most of you all are in the same boat I would assume, if you're even on these forums. So I gotta ask, why do you all seem to be so certain that your opinion reigns supreme over anybody else that's on these forums? The arguments on these forums often end personally, as if people are so angered by the fact that somebody disagrees with them that they have to reply with some ignorant, hateful comment just to occupy their time...

Additionally, I simply cannot comprehend why people on these forums have to attack any and everybody that critiques this game in any way? I've been on here and typed some pretty long complaints about the game, complaints that took time to think through and put in a way that had as little bias as possible, and almost EVERY single response I've ever gotten for criticizing the game has been not just disagreement. I'm fine with people disagreeing...but most of the time people act like I'm some sort of idiot that has no right to speak my mind.

So what I tend to think, is that some of you are so in love with Halo that you take criticism of this game personally. I'M NOT TRYING TO OFFEND YOU! lol I just think there are things wrong with the game is all.

I mean last night, for example, I got on here and tried to make a joke about how I hate bungie's booting system by referencing a south park episode. It was a joke, I thought it was funny so I shared it with the forums for the hell of it. I didn't care if people thought it was funny or anything, I just made a thread because I wanted to. So who cares right?

By the end of the thread, somebody had told me: "South Park isn't funny, it's just vulgar and offensive. You have to have a very juvenile sense of humor to find it at all amusing."

...now I feel like I shouldn't have to explain how that is a ridiculous thing to say. Anyway, I'm tired of trying to talk sense to you, and you know who you are. I'm not gonna be posting on this forum anymore, I don't wanna get poisoned by all of the ignorance and hatred in here and end up like some of you.

Hopefully somebody agrees that people on this forum need to chill, but I'm afraid I don't expect that to happen. Anyway, there's no hate on my end, I guess some people just care about Halo a lot and get upset when somebody doesn't feel the same.

I apologize for the novel lol..

And so God called Moses to come forth but he came fifth and was therefore disqualified.

Woah, thats a little vague, isn't it. I don't think my opinion fits everyone perfectly, just me. Opinions are like farts, everyone has them, no one wants to hear them.

Actually I don't act much differently in real life. I've made it a full 16 years alright. And judging by the fact that you're probably older and yet have shown so little maturity...

Also R-R-R-RAGEQUIT.

Welcome to the internet. Joy dies here.

Funny thing about the internet - it creates this illusion that the person sitting behind the monitor is the only one using the internet that's not a drooling twelve year old with a below average IQ. There are a lot of factors, but when it comes right down to it the anonymity and the communication barriers that typing implies bring out conceit, cynicism and egotism.

If somebody is acting like that, just laugh at them for being so full of themselves and ignore them. Engaging them won't yield any benefit, other than mild amusement.

...And yet, I'm more mature than a good 90 - 95% of this forum.

And unless the post I'm quoting is a joke...you fall into that 90 - 95%.
