Subject: Why is Halo waypoint so hated by B-net?

I mean seriously. Just a question but I've noticed this forum carries a lot of hate for them.

Ninjas don't exist there.

Cos it's not B.net

The mods are 15x more strict than bnet's and it's filled with Halo 4 fanboys and former Reach-Forumers.

I Love Lamp. And Ender's Game. Don't tell Lamp.

People here like to see what they have to do to get banned, and then complain when they get banned. The mods over there are actually fairly decent at determining who is doing this.

Don't judge a book by its cover, unless it has bacon on the cover, then it is a good book.

Because the moderators on that site are extremely stupid and do not know how to run a site, and the site is also extremely slow a problem 343 doesn't seem to want to fix

I like to play Reach for fun. I hate MLG, campers, armor lock, and team killers because they ruin that fun. Deal with it.

Their forum mods believe in a totalitarian society.

Because the mods are more strict on there. Plus, there's a lot of kids there, too.

OT: I don't hate it, but it could be better, given better effort, of course.

If you're passionate about the thing you're talking about, I'll always lend an ear.

I haven't been banned on B.net ever.

On my first day on Halo Waypoint, I got banned.

Never went back again.
LOL

Well, here we are. I guess that it was destined to come to this.

No hate from me. I know that they've got a growing, diverse and very opinionated community. I wish their community manager and their moderators the best of luck in keeping their site a fun, welcoming and interesting place to visit.

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

Reading half of the things that the Waypoint community says makes me lose braincells.

  • 09.08.2012 7:38 PM PDT

I've gotta agree with the mods statement. But considering it is the home of Halo now did you honestly expect less fanboys? B-net was no different for a while.

There are a variety of reasons why somebody may not like the Waypoint forum experience, especially when compared to this one. However, Foman stated yesterday that this isn't an appropriate topic to discuss, as it discourages others from going to the site.

Lol I remember that thread. Everyone (except you and about two others) was trying convince Foman that Waypoint sucked and that they were banned inappropriately.

I have 2 things to say about this:

1. You are correct about the slowness, and they dont fix it because they are lazy.

2. You are correct about the mods as well. I have posted countless threads about how halo will suck on that site, and i still haven't gotten banned. (weird right?)

It's so slow, you get banned for being against 343 in any way and there are so many fanboys.

Honestly, if 343 came out with a new gun called the Poop Cannon, Waypointers would argue that is brings great diversity and interest to the game.
