Subject: What will The Flood be renamed as?
  • gamertag: [none]
  • user homepage:

After being off this site for a couple years, the changes are going to have less of an effect on me. However, for the more "hardcore" b.net user, I'm wondering how this is all going to play out. Since The Flood is probably B.net's most actively used forum, the name change is going to affect a lot of people.

Of course we aren't "positive" that Bungie will change the name, but all Halo-related pages must be removed from this site.

So what will The Flood be renamed as?

Who said that The Flood was going to be renamed? Did I miss something?

Edit: Now that you edited your thread to make my original post sort of invalid, I'll ask this instead; who said that the Halo forums had to be removed?

I think this is just a rumor. In fact, I believe some Bungie employees have gone out of their way to verify that they don't plan on changing the off-topic forum's title in the next update.

all Halo-related pages must be removed from this site.Who said that? When did they say it? Where did they say it? Why am I bothering to ask these questions when I know the answer to them all and that you're absolutely and completely wrong?

- Dawes, A little bit of everything

No, why would it be renamed? The Flood is The Flood and it is not a Halo-related page, it is an Off-Topic forum. I doubt Bungie will remove all Halo-related pages anyway. Why, for example, would they remove the any of the pages in the Halo Universe when it was they who created them? Sure, the title might be changed slightly to Bungie's Halo Universe or something along those lines but I don't see the reason to purge this site of all Halo-related entities.

Besides, I was under the impression that all that was going to be done was to combine all Halo-related forums into one Halo forum.

Nope. Not now, not at final transition, not ever.

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

The Flood shall never be renamed!

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

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

I'm still thinking the Flood needs a name change. Something like "Foman's Toilet" would be both catchy and accurate.

  • 02.13.2012 2:44 PM PDT

The Flood's name simply cannot change. It would be catastrophic.

I'm thinking we should have an image instead of the name. Something like this, because that's usually the face I make when I go there.

  • 02.13.2012 2:49 PM PDT

Remember Elk

Nothing one would hope seeing as the name has become such a large part of that forums identity.

"MetalxTongue's Dumping Grounds" sounds so much better.

I was thinking along the same lines prior to reading your response. But I was thinking just 'The Toilet'. Seems most fitting.

If it's your toilet, then may I suggest you call the Tidy Bowl Man? You are behind on your home maintenance duties.

If I had to pick a name, I'd name it "Cosmic Soup".
