Haha, you should go on stage or something. What? You weren't acting? You trully are that stupid?

  • 05.13.2006 7:16 AM PDT

Fool. The rumour is that we are the decendants of forerunners or have evolved in to what they were. Nice try though.

Think about it, there is a forunner "relic" on earth that the covenant wan't above all else, this object is thought to be the "Ark", now think about a certian biblical story and you'l catch the drift about what I'm going on about. How come only humans are reclaimers, I'm pretty sure that ol mohawk would have put the index in himself if he could. Now the forunner may have had a place for their leaders to survive the storm in and many different species, this brings up 2 options, humanity or humanities ancestors were the forunner or a species that the forunner saved.

I'm awesome.

My mom says so.

I thought that if the humans were forerunners/descendants, wouldn't 343 GS have said something by now???

  • 05.13.2006 7:47 AM PDT

Dude, they could've y'know, gone inside the Ark to preserve themselves.

Also when the monitor sees the Master Chief in Halo: CE, he says something like "I am delighted to see some of the creators survived to reproduce!"

Think about it.

your right, SENTIEN life, but a race as smart as the forerunners could EASILY create the Primordial pool which life on earth came from(i think thats the right word, but its sticky, and ickly, and where we came from), so if they can create it, why not create it, so when it evoles, it becomes themselfs, so the forerunner race doesnt come to an end

side notes

the monitor speaks every good english, i doubt the cheifs translator could understand an alien language that quick, maybe the monitor could and did do that, but still, maybe not

the monitor calls humans "reclamiers" and everything else the other race, i didnt see any elites in the library that tryed to get the index, but i did see a human, and didnt 2401 (monitor of delta halo) call the chief a "reclaimer" when he saw him during the first gravemind video??? why not the elite?

when the monitor is stealing all the info from the pillar of autumn, i thought i heard him say "i record of all OUR lost time" not just lost time, OUR lost time, maybe im wrong, someone check this for me, im not home at the moment, its in 1 of the last cut senses in The Maw, i think whe the monitor starts the countdown, and cortana says hes in engineering

Guilty spark's protocols probably led him to that conclusion.

It doesn't mean that he's right.

Q. What do you get when you add 1 man, 1 car, and 1 rocket built for a jet?

A. A black smudge on the side of a cliff.

Yes; they may be. Like someone said, Ol' Mohawk would have turned the key if he could have. But, he had to force Miranda Keyes to turn the key.

I agree with the theory that humans are descendants of the Forerunners. They were they Forerunners, humans are the Reclaimers. After the Forerunners (or most of them anyway), were wiped out by the first activation of the Halos, some were left behind on the Ark (which I believe is the thing in the crater in the trailer). They eventually became humans after thousands of years. Humans are the Reclaimers, meant to reclaim the lost technology and advances of the Forerunners. Like the person above me said, Tartatus had to make Miranda turn the key, because humans are relation to the Forerunners.

Humans being the only ones to turn the key fits my theory on what was happening with the Ark at the end of the trailer. Read what I think happened here.

yea, GS said something about "only an reclaimer can proform something as important and using the index", yea i know thats wrong, but i cant get to my xbox, and i forgot, but basicly, only humans/reclaimers/forerummers can imput and use the index

Acting like pre and post pubescent idiots who feel confident behind Internet anonymity? Even though it's applicable to the majority of our members, we ask that they not do that here.

What I heard, and this is from a leaked script that has been proven false by Microsoft and Bungie (but it is a nice theory), is that the forerunners made th rings for political reasons. And that the forerunners are not the humans. Then again, they probably activated the rings out of desperation

GS was talking about the flood when he said he was happy to see some survived to reproduce,
if its proven false? why bring it up?, nice or not, its wrong
