ok i read all the threads about ''i think the forerunners are humans'' but i disagree because:

when the 343 guilty spark was telling the brutes what halo was, he said "my creators, along with all other sentient life were destroyed, as planned" he accually says the forerunners were killed by halo. just my opninion

Thankyou for stating the obvious. Seriously, you are now one of the few that realize that chances are human are not Forerunners. Some idiot posted that a long time ago and now everyone is going with it.
I don't doubt there is some kind of connection (we are reclaimers, after all), but we're not Forerunners.
May God strike me dead when H3 comes out if I'm wrong.

I do agree that the forrunners and reclaimers are different, but how is the question. What is more important is the relationship that they had together. After all, only reclaimers are used to activate the rings in both halo 1 and 2 (tarturus forced keys to activate the ring, he did not do it himself, if they were not needed to do that, then her and Johnson would be dead). Are the reclaimers are what the forrunners left behind to reclaim the galaxy, who knows? The reclaimers could refer to the surviving forrunners that got in the ark (noahs ark to survuive the flood) in africa (the scietific place where mankind began). The inconsistancy lies in the tecnology gap, how do the survivers loose all that knowlege. There is a very good possiblity that the reclaimers and the forruners are the same species, humans. To be honost, that seems to fit the storyline best. Time will tell and there is a good chance you all are right, but the greatest irony and consitancy comes with that being true. But there are many things that are not known

and may i be there to laugh and point at you.


the whole ark thing fits, read the story of noah and the ark then apply it to halo, and damn, it looks like an ark, on earth, the theory looks pretty probable to me, and i think thats why everyone is swinging that way. like they say, the most obvious explanation is useually the right one

Dont suppose it could possibly be a himan, as it is improbable for a race to loose all technological prowness that it once had. The similarities are there though. We know theyre about the same size... everything on Halo seems to have human sided doors. Unless they were built especially for the reclaimers ofcourse...

I agree to an extent,but on the other hand...what if the forerunners that did survive,IF any did,decided it was best for the reclaimers,or humans to evolve there own technology to protect themselves. If they dont have space travel,they cant find the rings,and cant unleash the flood again. Just a thought

Bungie wouldn't have made it that obvious. They probably have something up their sleeve. We will just have to wait.

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

i agree, that's why i'm so often contesting the whole "humans are forerunners" view. i just don't see it, and no one has shown me any evidence to prove it or even hint at it.
