Something smells fishy...

It could mean all Halo game forums on Bungie.net will be terminated. Yay! /partially sarcastic

Relax. I'd rather not piss this thing off.

-Master Chief

Yes, i do believe bungie will be passing everything along that is Halo, including the Halo forums.

It's been confirmed now that the Halo forums aren't leaving during this transition, but they may be merged at one point.

Being merged with the Reach board would be a fate worse than closure itself.

I have to agree on that one... Except I'm more on the lines of hating Halo 3's forum mingling with us...

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

More so than having every H2 player who thinks that game was the most skill-based prattle on about how people who are right are actually wrong?

The Halo 3 Community is that 10 times over. You should know this. Rank this, rank that... They treat it as though having a 50 in Halo 3 is the only way you have a right to any opinion what so ever. If you go in their claiming Dr Pepper tastes wonderful they'll say Mountain Dew is better and their 50 in Halo 3 shows they know what they're talking about... At least with the Halo 2 Forum they're more about the casual fun parts of the game more than extreme over-competitive.

ROFL

Too true.

I think they should close all the Halo game forums. Just end it.

Don't say that around here. Apparently, it makes some people cry. Or complain when some people don't cry. Or something like that.

Grrr...

Was just saying that it would be sort of sad to see it go due to memories. In its current state it wouldn't be that bad if it did go, to be honest. In fact, it would probably be better for us if we were forced into private groups so we don't have many of the annoying users.

Last member of the i4Ni clan.

The only thread I'll miss is this.

However, I occasionally look at this and this for -blam!-s and giggles.

I have a confession to make... I love Dr. Pepper!!

And I'd hate to see this forum, H3, and Reach combined. All the horrific competitive mp arguments that would ensue, it would be intense.

Yes, I AM just that awesome.

I don't think it would really matter, there's always private groups.

As if people would actually join and participate in the private groups after a few months. I can't see people here being dedicated enough to this forum to continue through a private group...

That being said, I also couldn't see the Halo 2 forum doing it either. Most of them seem to only stick around the things their dedicated to as long as they have a luxury suite. If they have to "go through the trouble" of communicating through private groups they would probably just not bother and beg for the main forum back.

This. At Waypoint, CE to ODST + Anniversary are often inactive while the Reach and Halo 4 forum get all the attention.

I'd rather use private messaging than go post in those forums as most posts will be deluged by a hundred thousand posts about rank, mp stuff, canon, demands for H2 anniversary, and standard campaign stuff (i.e. easter eggs). Which is disappointing because I was planning on unveiling several new H3 videos in one huge mega thread. I suppose I could do it in the Bungie.net H3 forum...

That's frightening but the past responses I got from my campaign reveal threads show that there's still interest in campaign.
