Subject: Bungie is no longer managing the Halo Universe. While our Halo-rela...

Spread the love...

This message has been up for a while, but still many people come here asking for Halo help. Just look at a few locked threads in the next couple of pages.

I really think there should be some more emphasis on the message. Something like this maybe, with it being highlighted. What do you think?

I'd rather just remove the "Halo Game" forums. People will panic at first, but then it will send the message.

Yeah, maybe showing it when you log in as well. I know similar threads have been created.

It's not a warning nor advisory. It's a notice. There's no reason to make it stand out more. The wrong-forum topics dont affect you in the slightest.

Yes, I AM just that awesome.

Or we could just post this everytime someone posts a halo related thread here.

No they should stay, CE to Reach are all Bungie games..so the Halo forums are needed for members who want to talk about those games.Even though Bungie no longer runs the Halo universe it is still a very huge part Bungie. It would be stupid to take them out.

Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

No matter what the menu says, some people will still ask for a Whopper at McDonald's or order a Big Mac at Burger King.

It just going to happen. The best thing that can come of it is that the customer and counter-person get a laugh, and then they get on with the business at hand.

I don't think that would help, people post in this forum and the Universe about Reach as it is.

OT: I think it needs a link to 343's forums.

It still wont stop people from coming in here and making threads like that.

Got a question, comment, or concern? PM me.

They should just have all the forums show in the drop-down menu so people don't have to go searching for the Halo forums...

I guarantee you that is why people post Halo stuff here.

No, keep the forums up, but when you click on the link, instead of getting the forum, you'll get a video of Jerome saying "Scram!"

We need flashing lights, or force people to read it before they can post. Dear Lord, people are so unobservant.


For the record, people are trying to order Egg McMuffins at Starbucks. I give their asses decaf when they do. I say we go by the same policy here.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

While Bungie held the torch for 10 years the flame has died.

People need to learn, some people know they are posting in the wrong areas and just want attention.

I think the mods need to crack down on these people.

also, LOL eggmcmuffins at Starbucks? LOL they really need their coffee.

Ignorance is perpetual. "Cracking down" would be less effective than just informing the masses in a more efficient manner.

As for Starbucks, we don't "Mc" anything.

I agree, I think Bungie has informed everyone pretty well but some people can;'t put 2 and 2 together.

The "not maintaining Halo" is good but I think it confuses people becuase they DON'T know where to go.

Maybe a BIG, MULTICOLOR, LINK of the 343i forums would help also (removed once the next big thing comes).

Fixed everything.

EDIT: Apparently not. Something broke the amazing quality of a former .png and it's now a crap .jpg. Sadface.

Bye.

Why not put the "Bungie is no longer managing the Halo Universe" box under the forum(s) banner? That way its quite blatant to see and its not too intrusive.

A popup of the message or the letters flashing in front of them. Maybe a SFX like this with the popup.
