For Carnage, Apply Within.

I have returned from the Untamed Lands. MOAP is dead.

I came for Halo, but I heard the Tru7h, fought thru Carnage, and stayed for Bungie.

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

The Flood and Community forums will never fall.

That I can guarantee.

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

"You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space." -Johnny Cash

I'm sure that Bnet won't get like that unless Bungie doesn't release any information on their new game in the next two to three years, but I highly doubt it will come to that.

Each forum still has a core group. The same threads pop up over and over, but hey, it's keeping people entertained.

Racism isn't wrong if it's funny.

Oh no! How on earth will we survive?! How will we keep our door open?! How can anything ever get back to normal?!

Oh that's right, they'll just release another game.

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

But knowing is only half the battle...

To get the rest of the story, you need to video tape it!

Seeing one's own conception is tantamount to traveling back in time and seeing yourself.

The space-time continuum must be preserved.

This is better music
I saw that coming - but still a fine choice.
One of the most beautiful piano melodies in existence (of course, that's purely my opinion).
Buuut, back on topic - this place is going to flourish, give it a few months, some more news, trailers, release dates and everything will pick up.
This is just a lull.
The eye of the storm if you will.

I agree. And Urk, you could just start charging employees for those bagels every Friday.... ;)

OT: This happens with every transitional period. Wait until they release their first trailer for the new game. It'll pick back up like bees to honey.

V: I can assure you I mean you no harm.
Evey Hammond: Who are you?
V: Who? Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.
Evey Hammond: Well I can see that.
V: Of course you can. I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is.
Alas, so many quotes, so little room in the signature box.

His mouth is bigger, so he wins. Or maybe he's compensating for something. . .

OT: If by fall you mean stumble, then yes, the forums will fall. But they will come back stronger than ever. Bungie has had plenty of time to come up with a new, grand universe. I have faith and patience, which you, OP, seem to lack. Besides, even without game content, there's something about the community that keeps me coming back, even when I abstain from posting for a lengthy period of time.

Citizens of Me! The cruelty of the old Pharaoh is a thing of the past. Let a whole new wave of cruelty wash over this lazy land.

Hear the word of Pharaoh. Build unto me a statue of ridiculous proportion. One billion cubits in height......that I might be remembered for all eternity!

And be quick about it!
