To all people who are "afraid" or "feel it's hopeless" to go there, I have a message
Suck it up. Please, come on. It's getting both out of hand, and silly how much some of you intensify an easily solvable situation, or "problem"
If you wanna talk Halo 2, go in there. What's to be afraid of? If you get annoyed by the repeating topics, why? If anything, it's an example of the rising attendance of new people stopping in to visit the site. This is a good thing; Bungie reaches it's consuming grip ever farther. Bungie.net's forums are set up in such a way that it's almost intimidating to search, manually, for an old topic
Adding more to that, it's important to remember that Bungie.net still doesn't have a search function, so it'd be wrong to blame people like this completely
And if there is any other problem - flaming, etc - there are two ways to counter this. One is to PM a mod if it gets bad, and two, argue back! Bungie encourages intelligent argument, so long as both sides don't cross any lines. Being a new member on any site lends an automatic feeling of being defensive, and so when you display that you yourself aren't flaming, but merely arguing safely, the feeling is contagious, and new members feel tested, and even welcomed
