Opinions are like butholes. Everyone's got one, nobody wants to hear about it.

Oh. But really though, every person I've seen on these forums who thinks this game is garbage, horrible, disgrace of a Halo game, etc. has the ability to only call someone a "retard" or something related to or hinting to that. Nothing else.
By "Reach-haters," I mean people who think the things I listed above. There's a fine line between thinking a game has flaws that need to be changed and thinking a game is pure garbage and anyone who disagress is "mentally handicapped."
I do not condone calling other people "retards" but in their defense, the point of frustration was exceeded long ago.
Imagine that you're a top-notch Halo player and you have been since the days of Halo 1. You win tournaments, rank high on leaderboards, and you are a known member of the Halo community.
The Reach comes out. It is filled to the brim with things that you not only hate at a personal level, but things that are absolutely detrimental to competitive, balanced gameplay. As a result, you are going to voice your opinion on the forums and make your displeasure known - hopefully enacting some change.
As you type and state your thoughts, there are a bunch of inexperienced Halo players telling you to "adapt" and telling YOU what takes more skill when it comes to Halo. You have never heard of some of these people, so you click on their Service Records. What is this? They are level 20s in Halo 3 and have never played Halo 2? In addition to this, the very game they are defending to the death, Reach, they have a low K/D ratio in and their top tool of destruction is melee!
Would that not frustrate you? That is my personal story applied to this thread, haha.
I would probably be frustrated, but I would definitely stay away from name-calling. I would also have to realize that they have a different opinion and maybe even playstyle compared to mine.
