Don't worry about that one Eagle, you are my partner in crime...

...and all of us in the Underground are equally accessories

Good one Eagle, it matters nothing on what the date says below your name, but more to how you present yourself and what you contribute to the forums.


Once again, thanks for your kind words MakaVeli4LIfe1. I'm going to have to find a way to repay you for backing me up so many times.

(Not meant in a... -blam!- way???)








Hahahaha, dude I know I know

Just roll up in a Warthog once Halo 2 is out and pick me up in a tight spot if you ever see me in need, that should be fine...

...or Needler whip my foes; be creative, just not -blam!- creative, haha

I will have to agree with my partner in crime(a.k.a. MakaVeli4LIfe1). I've only been an "official" member of this site for a couple of months now. MakaVeli4LIfe1 has always garnered support for my theories and discussions. I can only hope that I myself, as well as others, will have this positive of an outlook in the coming months:) We, the Underground, don't need to kill a fan's hopes with a few missplaced negative comments; especially, if it took Bungie time, money, and effort to get that fan's support in the first place.

Couple of months? It says you've been here for a month and 4 days. I don't think Maka thinks you are his partner, lol.


This is the kind of stuff this whole thread is about. Yes, I've only been an "official" member of Bungie.net for a month and 4 days, that has nothing to do with this thread. Actually, it has everything to do with this thread. My whole point in putting a "couple of months" was to show that I'm a new member. Whether it's been 2 months, or 1 month and 4 days, it doesn't matter... unless, that is, you hide a chart of these things under your bed. Regardless of my newness to this forum, MakaVeli4LIfe1 has been one of the few non sarcastic, unhateful, keep to his own buisness members of this forum, unlike yourself. He has been kind enough to ME to be consider a friend/ partner/ bud/ mate/ what ever it is you want to call it. Don't judge what you don't know is the point of this thread, and you "my friend" have given a prime example of just that!



Ok you don't know me that well I guess, lol. I will give you some key points to how I was joikng.

How I was joking and why I do it:
#1 First off my name is Josher for a reason! Fits me well and it's not just my name.
#2 You aren't good at seeing the sacarism of my post I guess
#3 The lol kind of says I'm laughing because it just seemed like a funny post of yours. Yes I was saying your post was funny,"partner in crime", lol.

And your last sentence. Did you read the whole thread because apparently you didn't read the first post of mine. In my post you are the kind of person that kinda screws stuff up and makes this kind of stuff happen. I'm sorry if you took my "couple of months" post offensively, it was not meant to. The problem is everyone takes things to seriously sometimes and never know when I'm joking around, maybe I should add that to my sig!

  • 05.16.2004 3:27 PM PDT

I think that's a bit of overreacting, my friend.
And,

Don't judge what you don't know is the point of this thread, and you "my friend" have given a prime example of just that!


Yes, Captain, it seems to be spreading. ;-)

I'll try to take into consideration, as sarcastic as they are presented, your points:)

This was my point:) You never know the state of mind of the person you are replying to. For all you know, I could have just gotten my license taken away, flunked a test, found out my girlfriend was cheating on me, and broken (accidentally of course) my Xbox Halo disc. As crazy as all that sounds, there are people who take life seriously because of what life has delt them. The last thing a person, such as the one I'm talking about, needs it to come to an internet forum for their favorite game and have someone ( not talking about you ) scavage and pick through their post. I'll admit that I took you post a little too serious, but my point still stands... you never know who you're replying to:)

Just to throw this one out:

On the internet, all you can do is read the text. You can't hear how they're saying what they're saying. This causes a lot of problems sometimes

But at the same time, you, as the person making the post, have to look at what the consequences of what you're saying could possibly be, and not be surprised if people take it the wrong way. It's like a weird internet type of tact, that no one can see...or something

I guess if you use the "Text Markups" it could help a little.

I'll leave that conclusion to you guys. My girlfriend wants me to come play Halo with her, not kidding around( I'm a lucky guy:) I'll see ya'll later; or, I guess the correct way to put it would be... type you later???


Oh, and no hard feelings Josher. I guess you're the class clown of the group:)

Good one Eagle, it matters nothing on what the date says below your name, but more to how you present yourself and what you contribute to the forums.

The only people I know that have actually contributed something to the Halo World are the RvB guys, Stuntmutt, Boll, etc; you get what I'm saying

I'm also not trying to go all soft and create a utopian peace forum with daffodils, rice krispies treats, and tang for everyone. I said all that because I've seen how forums can go to hell. If you consider different forums to be different parts of the Halo community world, the Xbox.com forums would most definitely be Iraq :)

So I'm just a war veteran of that forum, and have scouted around with other ones too. I came to the UG last November, and it's been pretty fun ever since.

When I first came here though, I thought it was a forum for the mentally challenged for typing, as a lot of the first threads that I saw were posted by JoeyBagaDonuts (HAHA Omg JP you're my man Joey wtf)

Basically, well, you guys get the point. Let's just have some fun with this, and create our own identity, rather than copy what has been tried and failed in other forums

I'm trying not to come off as weird by saying all this, and I appreciate the plethoric amounts of "Hell Yea"s that I'm getting

Once again Joey, I'm so so sorry :) That's just your style, I know I know :\



yea it is my style, lol....i just dont like to type all perfect and b all formal and stuff....and i like my little period thing i got goin.......ummm.....periods.....dot, dot dot,.......lol, and most of my posts are non-sense, and i dont take the time to look over them or anything, just try to get my word out there of my halo ideas, experiences, etc....and as long as u can read it, there shouldnt b a problem...unlike some other ppl ive seen hear, lol.....i kno ur jp...its all good.....and again HELL YEAAAAAAAAAAYA!!!! (lil' john style lol)........

Class clown never thought of it like that, but yea I guess. Joey is somewhat of a clown himself, lol.

Sorry if that was me. Yeah, that happens a lot. New people (NOT n00bs!) go to the forums to get info, not to get flamed.

Attention Underground: A message from your neighborhood MakaVeli4Life1

Lately I’ve been acting as a spectator with all of the news, screens, videos, etc., and this is getting to be laughably ridiculous. There are some of you in here who think that you somehow have “position” or “rank”, to attempt to flame people. A lot of this comes from a person’s post; and in these posts, there may be something that has been discussed already, or maybe a topic that is long dead. This only applies to a few instances, and fortunately is not something that happens a whole lot

Either way, I have a message – a strong message – that I felt needed to be delivered to these people:

Grow the hell up.

What a lot of you don’t understand is that, in the next few months, and especially as Halo 2 nears, Bungie.net will be flooded with new people, some young people, but a lot of them much older. Bungie made this site for the huge rush that is going to come as a result of Halo 2 being released, and through the extensive and widespread advertising that they plan on for the game. This game is going to be huge, and with that, comes another swarm of people; how many of you were Bungie fans before Halo? Not many. Now among those of you who were, do you remember the amount of new people that came as a result of the Xbox and Halo?

Here’s something to consider: Triple that amount of people you saw come in when Master Chief graced our television sets. Halo 2 is going to be world-wide, huge, in hundreds of countries. MS and Bungie are going all out to ensure that the result is nothing less.

You’re going to have completely new people coming to Bungie.net, and more specifically, the Underground. Now imagine for a brief moment that you are one of these new people. You get your membership, link your Gamertag, and you stumble upon Bungie’s own forum, in hopes to talk about this Halo 2 game that is going to be released. “I heard it’s going to revolutionize gaming as we know it”, you might say.

Now imagine you make your first post. You never knew, or cared too much, about Halo on the Xbox, but you believe the hype and see the screens, and you just know Halo 2 is going to be something special. Now you’ve made the post, probably talking about how excited you are for Halo 2, or maybe it’s something that you – yourself – just found out.

Meanwhile, us, as Halo Smartsmen (completely made-up word), see this post. What are we going to say? Are we going to “flame” him? Are we going to “set him straight”? Just for asking a question about the game he loves, or will probably be a big-time fan of?

Why in the hell would you say something that could totally, in some ways, “scare” him off? Bungie is a company that cares tremendously about their fan base. And while it goes without saying it, their success depends on us as the fans, to buy their games. But they don’t cloud themselves in mystery like any other company you know of. No, Bungie are the same as you and I, always looking for a great experience. They haven’t lost touch with their roots in any way. Think of the situation through the eyes of a professional athlete. You just got into the NBA, and you begin to be -blam!-y because you are “the next Jordan” or whatever. Most would develop huge heads about their success.

In the gaming world, Bungie has done just this, reached the top of the gaming “game”. They stand alone on top of the mountain with what they can do with Halo 2, and there is not one other game that I have ever seen create so much buzz. What does Bungie do? Remain loyal and level-headed, that’s what.

So the message is simple: do unto others as others would do unto you. Why not? Let’s all enjoy this time while we can, because whether you know it or not, the time right now is the best part of this whole experience. It’s the anticipation for November 9th. When that day comes, no doubt, you’ll be happy as hell, but the time now with the rare screenshots and information, is the best part by far. It’s the mystery of the game that sparks topics like “Do you think” or “How many of you”. There is nothing like this time.

That’s it, I hope some of you look at this, as I’m writing it as objective as I can, and think “OK, let’s make this whole experience fun,” and just help someone out if they need it. BillyBob (example of a new member) didn’t know that his topic had already been talked about. Let’s show him what a real Halo fan looks like, rather than coming off as a jerk in the process. Let’s give the help he needs, and flaunt our Halo knowledge, heh...

I don’t even wanna talk about what the Xbox.com forums are like…:)






Hell mother-blam!- Yeah!

BtN (Bring the Noise) is not a flamer. His style is his style

But I don't think you'll ever see him bash someone without reason
