Forget it man, and get with the countdown. Shake this square world and blast off for Kicksville.

Reach host ranking algorithm: (a*quit_percentage + b*isMexican + c*(1/KDR) + d*hasGuest) * 100
where a > b = d > c

It's always funny watching Reach forum goers debate. They always resort to insults rather than proper formulated arguments.

For some of us, that's because after the hundredth kid comes along with "armor lck is balunced becuz evry1 can spawn wit it" we lose our motivation to present a proper formulated argument.

You learn to stop wasting your time and just call a retard a retard.

I hate to think what that makes people who frequent The Flood.

Much much more intelligent than you. At least a civilised discussion can occur in the Flood. Here, it's almost impossible.

If you ask anyone who frequents different forums (excluding the flood or reach forums) "The Flood, or Reach forums?"
Nine times out of ten, they'll say the Flood. The Reach forums are the considered the scum of this site.

This forum is just full of people who sucked at previous Halo games talking about how bad Reach is (despite the fact they play it loads and have done every day for a year) whilst bollocksing on about how good they are at it (when nearly all of them actually suck).

Oh look, Elite_Buddy, the beacon of civilised and mature discourse in the darkness of the Reach forums.

I frequent the Reach forum because it's topical to something I care about. When my primary pursuit is general quality discourse, I leave Bungie.net entirely, and certainly don't waste my time on a joke of a forum like The Flood.

But if "properly formulated arguments" are so important to you, here's a very simple reason why I have zero respect for The Flood: it's full of children.

This is, of course, an inevitable result of the demographics of Bungie's fanbase, but the fact remains that when I want to discuss anything not Halo-related, I'm certainly not going to do it on a forum full of people that incidentally think needlers are cool and have Master Chief posters on their wall.

There's a difference between stating a fact, and describing someone sarcastically.

The average age of the Flood is around 16-24. The Reach forums is closer to 9-15.

You do, of course, have robust data to back this up.

Still, the point seems to be lost on you. Let me try and restate it as simply as possible and maybe we'll get somewhere: I frequent the Halo: Reach forums in order to discuss Halo: Reach.

I will never frequent The Flood because I do not wish to discuss general topics with children/teens - of which there is a significant number in absolute terms - when I have better options available.

The discussion of Reach here is minimal. The 343 Reach forums have more discussion of the game, and of much better quality. I wouldn't venture into the Halo4 forums though... horrible place.

I don't understand this thread. So you remember that people used to complain during Halo 3 but you're surprised/annoyed? that people are complaining about Reach? News flash, people complain about every game. Get used to it.

RC Clone is the anti-thesis of a lurker.

Halo 3 was okay, but compared to Reach it was awesome.

I've never said that about Halo 3 before though.


The epitome of Halo gameplay is Halo CE.

A thread with a civilized discussion about mechanics in the game would be nice.

The 343 Reach forums have more discussion of the game

The problem is that the mods over there make the gestapo look friendly.

and of much better quality.
Ehh... there is more civilised discussion, but absolute idiocy gets tolerated much more as well. I consider it a net loss, but we'll have to agree to disagree.

I wouldn't venture into the Halo4 forums though... horrible place.
Agreed.

Nope. SouthPole isn't a person. He's the avatar of the force of tryhards everywhere. He stalks the web looking for retards to set straight. He can not be stopped by mere bans or thread locks for he shall rise anew.

You're so dumb. Stop trying.
