Hey everyone....

My sincerest "thank you"s go out to Stalin and Shishka. I seriously wanna thank you guys for showing us the other side of the coin for a change. If nobody takes a different view from "A HALO MOVIE WOULD BE AWESOME!!!" every now and again, we wouldn't have much of a discussion, now would we?


Ah, I feel very good about the community today.

This member joined recently, in late August. It pleases me to know that not ALL new users are children uninterested in the community and only wish to post 'Halo 2 PWNS' threads. It is excellent to know that at least some of the influx of users are interesting, intelligent and thoughtful people out for a good debate. Despite the fact that this user goes against my particular point of view regarding a Halo movie, he has still got much respect from me, merely by being so very mature. Go and read [url= http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=665556] this [/url]. It is the Halo Movie Discussion Thread. A fascinating look into the ILB-lite psychology of people just not letting things go.

This is one of the very few users who has either respected other peoples opinion and acted accordingly by counterpoint arguements, or had a genuine interest in actually having a proper discussion, etc etc.

Thank you Necro 124. You truly have restored my faith in the b.net community. I am willing to accept all the people that join b.net who have no interest in the community, just want to flame etc as long as someone like this comes along as well. Vella, you are another new (well, newer than me. I am still new myself) member who has impressed me. I am sure there are others, but I haven't seen any of their posts I guess.

(Side note- I am a little drunk at the moment, having just been out to with my old work colleagues to say goodbye to me, as I recently left Index ltd. It was an OK night, I have had better. I had a curry at the local bar/resturant/pub/Americansed drinking hole, as well as two puddings. I felt a little ill, as I had not eaten all day. I have had better nights.Please forgive any errors etc)

That was the most appealing thing to me out of that post. Curries rule!

Hahaha I pour out my heart about my severe like for intelligent new members, and my side note about my curry eating interests you more? What is this world coming to.

Curries do rule. I had a chicken tikka massala. It was very nice, the Popaddom was a little soft, but that was the only real complaint. The curry itself was sufficently spicy, not too much not too little. The naan bread was delightfully soft. The rice was tuly cooked to perfection, and the chicken was tender and tasty. Thumbs up all round! Well done, Lloyds No 1 bar/Weatherspoons in Salisbury!

Yeah, but that's only for 1 in 20 new users. 9 in 20 of them try and post things that they think havn't been metioned before, but obviously have been, and the other 10, theres no phrase to exlpain them.

Yes there are some users who are actually nice people to have around here. You and Psyched are nice to have around here. It's great having new members who are active and actually help people. Now if we only had more members like that, it would help us with spammers. That is until the update is complete.

What about me? I try to help...but I've got some limitations due to my stupidity. :(

We’ve watched while the stars burned
Out, and creation played in reverse.
The Universe freezing in half-light.
Once I thought to escape.
To end a master, step out of the
Path of collapse. Escape would make us God.
Yet I cannot help but remember one enigma,
A hybrid, elusive destroyer.
This is the one mystery I have not solved.
The only element unaccounted for.

What do you mean by "no phrease to explain them"? Would I be one of them? Because I'm sure someone could describe me... I'm just not sure if I'd want them to : )

About time some one gives the "N" a break. All the post I heard is usually "N" this or "N" that or these darn "N's". Hey we were all new to b.net at some time just take a look at your date under your avatar on the left. Sure they may ask some simple question but they just want to be part of the fan club like anyone else here. The way some people talk about putting restrictions on "N" almost sounds like they want to lock b.net from any new members which is stupid and I don't think Bungie will allow that.
