OK now you all will think i am crazy which mabye i am... but listen.

i was getting the sputnic skull on quarantine zone the a couple weeks age cause i was doing glitches and i decided to get outside of quarantine zone... so i did ... then i was walking around and saw my men fighting one of the huge sentinels things (forgot their names but they have the big shields in front) and i pulled out a carbine and started to shoot it... then all of a sudden the red needle like things came at me and a;ll stuck into me and i died... thats when i thought haha that was almost exactly like getting shot with needlers but they were red!!! (i forgot about it 2 secs later)

then about a week ago i read something about that the needler was a gun the grunts invented but being the retarded me i didn't connect them until today when i was reading the post about the the foreunners being locked inside the ark and the covonet open it and i thought hmmmmmmm why would they stay in there for so long why didn't they just come out and thats when i pressed the big red X and went downstairs to get a coke.....

then i thought red needlers... grunts made needlers...... forerunners are probally still alive..... wait there must be something that all of those have to do with and thats when i said GRUNTS are FORERUNNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

it makes sense(kinda) and i have never seen anybody say it before.
please answer my poll seriously

First of all, Grunts aren't weak.
They may have fragile bodies, but they are cabable of carrying weapons like Fuel Rod Cannon that is heavy, even Elites say so.

In Halo CE I have always thinked about the wall markings on Silent Cartographer and AOTCR, the roundish wall markings look like Grunt faces to me, just add to points between two lines that would mark quarter and it would look just like Grunt face.

Maybe Forerunners as they were so highly eveolved, let their bodies to devolve, when all it needed to the job was their little robots. Also Grunts are those that work as behind the lines, medicians, pilots, maintenance crews and so on.
Elites lead only through fear, all they really do is fight and that's it.Sometimes pilot fighters, because Grunts are too small to pilot 'em.

So it could be true that Grunts are Forerunners. in 100 000 years you could forget your past and with Covenant that actually destroyed every trails of your past intentionally to prevent Grunts gaining intel about Grunt rebellion that caused major trouble in the past to both Elites and Prophets the Grunts cannot gather anything about their past.

I prevail

You should check the six fingered hand on the control panel after you beat the first enforcer of the game (you know, the big sentinel with shields), it is probably a forerunner hand. And, as you know, grunts don`t have six fingers.

ever heard on a tall tale? yea well they are common i mean the prophets think that the forerunners made the halos to make people gods so i mean really its not to farfetched that somewhere in a 100000 year span the forerunners went from being midgets in stories to being giants

The Enforcer's Needle-like weapon is completely un-related to the Covenant Needler.

If grunts are the forerunners then how come the covenant treats them like dirt.

The Forerunners where wiped out when they activated the Halos, they are extincted. The fact that there are no remains is pretty crazy though...

the grunts are too small and too weak to be the forerunners. the forerunners are the ancestors of the humans. that's the only reason why HUMANS can only activate halo and why the moniter calls them a reclaimer. if you listened to the opening cutscene of two betrayals in halo1, the moniter says: "the last time you asked, would I do it?" he was talking to the chief. he was saying the last time the forerunner asked him if he would activate halo. the moniter has only known the flood and his creators, the forerunner. so there, grunts aren't forerunner and humans are

I didn't say the grunts weren't strong, i just said they were too weak to be able to live long enough from the flood to be able to build 7 halos and an ark
