Subject: Halo 4 threads on the Flood

I like Halo 4, but all these flamebait threads, spam, and trolling are really annoying on the Flood. Should Halo 4 related topics be locked?

I think all spam, flamebait, and forms of offensive trolling should be locked. I don't think the same way about all Halo 4 threads.

That being said, the Halo 4 threads that are spam, flamebait or trolling should be and are dealt with by moderators.

Yes, let's lock all Halo 4 related topics after repeatedly telling people that they belong in The Flood, instead of banning the flamers and trolls. That's a great idea!

Most Halo 4 thread are created by trolls are are spammed and flamed. I don't agree with Halo 4 threads being lockable, but one stickied Halo 4 thread would be something I suggest, the amount of Halo 4 threads today tend to making going to The Flood rather boring as they are the only threads that have major discussion. Creating other threads won't get as much replies because of all the Halo 4.

What? No.

I'm sorry but this is a stupid idea. Halo 4 qualifies as off-topic so it belongs in the flood.

As for the flamers/trolls, you report and ignore them. It really isn't that hard to do.

That's an idiotic idea. It's the same as MLP.

So would something like an unofficial Halo 4 discussion thread be a better option?

If so, I could make it. I'm active most of the time so I can tend to a single thread if it needed information updates.

I'm gonna finish it. Just like Jigga did to the pyramid.

No, the flood is my source of new halo 4 stuff, if it get's locked then I won't get any new info.

I'm sure many other people will agree with me on that.

I like this idea.

Can you imagine what the Floods going to be like around release day? Halo 4 threads as far as the eye can see. It'll be a nightmare.

Positive vibes.

You appear to be under the assumption that flame baiting, spam, and trolling are derivatives of Halo 4 threads alone. Halo 4 threads are not the problem. The people who are flaming, spamming, and trolling are the problem. If you want those issues to be solved, I would suggest politely asking a moderator to handle the situation in a manner that they believe is appropriate; or simply ignore it. Either one works.

Allons-y!

"I don't like it, so it should be locked"

You see, there is no problem. It's just that The Flood is an Off Topic Forum, and that's what people want to discuss right now.

I dont understand how people get so emotionally attached to threads that they have no interest in - who cares if there's loads of Halo 4 threads.

If you don't like them, a good way to work out whether its about Halo 4 before you go into the thread is to read the title. Usually a Halo 4 thread says 'Halo 4' or something similar in the title, if you see this, don't click on it. Just a little trick I picked up with the time I've spent here.
