Wait dont forget about ancient Humanity they had war with the forerunners AND fought the flood at the same time the forerunners werent the most advanced they were practically the same with ancient humanity and remember this ancient humanity actually FOUND some sort of cure ....... untill the forerunners destroyed everything hooray for forerunners :) [/quote]
Eh no, the Forerunner Empire was still miles ahead of both Ancient Humanity and the San 'Shyuum empire. Humanity did not discover a cure, the Primordial pretty much confirms it, they were just deemed worthy cause they sacrificed 1/3 of their population to test said cure.
"They were little less advanced than [Forerunners]" - Cryptum. Forerunners had mastery of slipspace, but aside from that Ancient Humanity wasn't far off the Forerunners at all.
Have they demonstrated any significant feat of technological advancement? have they made a shell that is 300 million kilometers in diameter and then turned it into the size of a football?
Regardless of anything above, the Forerunners beat them in any possible aspect, compare the 20,000 worlds humanity had with the 3,000,000 words the Forerunner empire had, even if they were "equals" the Forerunners would still win, even with the help of the San 'Shyuum (the ones responsible for actually doing something against the Forerunners by making weapons that actually worked) they still would lose.
They made a fortress that withstood forerunner assault for 1000 years. And they may have, when the forerunners defeated them (partly because they were fighting a two front war against the forerunners and the flood, they devolved them, and destroyed any trace of their technology, that's why you don't see any of their constructs on Earth.
We didn't build that fortress, the Precursors did, and we just used it. The only reason the Forerunners didn't just Alderaan the planet was because the Precursor structures were indestructable, so they had to go in and fight us in close quarters, a long, bloody process for both sides.
