I've been playing Halo since 2002. My earliest memories include hiding at the shotgun window on Damnation and killing my dad with grenades while playing co-op on Pillar of Autumn.

I thought they were against the rules.

I never used to see them in the Flood, and when I did they were locked pretty fast. Now suddenly they're everywhere and the ninjas don't seem to mind.

I checked the rules, but I didn't see anything about the threads. Was this re ever even there before?

X vs Y threads have been around in the Flood since Member Title threads have been around in this forum. This isn't anything new.

They are technically spam considering how often the exact same ones appear up, but other than that it's perfectly legal.

Anyone but Foman. He smells like cheese.

The Halo Forums used to prohibit "hypothetical scenario" threads, including "__ vs ___" threads and similar. This rule was removed when the forum rules were reworked in January '11.

But these threads were never outright prohibited in the Flood Forum. Regardless of forum, however, these hypothetical scenario threads can still be locked for being spam, off-topic, or otherwise inappropriate.

I understand nothing because my life is a conspiracy.

Is there a list of "Flood Laws" that the community can access?

I was thinking more of some sort of scroll, but that'll do.

Really? I was banned for one of those threads before in the Flood.

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

I wish they weren't legal....
