"You have been measured, you have been weighed: And you have been found lacking."

Did they stop teaching spelling in Elementary and Middle School... or did they just stop teaching it all together?

Even I could spell better than that at age 13.

The Bungie Waaahmbulance is awesome, however I have an idea to end the banning and the Waaahmbulance (kind of). Once upon a time in the first Halo there was a handicap that made you run slower with the more kills you obtained without dying. So with that idea in mind, I think we should reinvite our old modding buddies to Halo 3 with the following handicaps (I mean, they were super 1337 just before they were banned remember):

1.) Walk super slow.
2.) They can't use weapons but they can throw stones (w/no damage).
3.) They can't jump.
4.) They can't throw grenades.
5.) They can't talk.
6.) Their armor is pink.
7.) They can't change gametypes.

In my opinion, this would be a far more satisfying solution to the bannings. It is likely that we would still get to enjoy complaints from the Bungie Waaahmbulance with this type of setup. The new gametype that we would ALL LOVE would be, Hunt The Modders. I can't even imagine that Team Slayer OR Team Swat would out rank this gametype.

...And miles to go before I sleep.

The Waahmbulance is a fun read, but it goes straight to why I play so little Halo 2 (sniff, sniff) anymore.

I really miss Halo 2. Halo, a real good friend of mine, introduced us. Some people said that we were no good together, but it was love I tell you, love. Two crazy kids in love, and Halo 2 never cared that I would never be more than a level 26. Halo 2 loved me for what was in my heart. It couldn't last though. I just couldn't stand some of the company she kept. Oh, Halo 2 tried to go straight, but every night I found her hanging out with cheaters and whiners, loud mouthed losers, foul mouthed idiots and even creeps who picked on little kids. I complained, but little happened. Finally I had to go. I didn't even say goodbye. We see each other every now and then. But it's not the same. The magic is gone. I've moved on.

Still, I understand that she has a sister named Halo 3 who is coming to town. Maybe I'll look her up when the time comes. You know, just to say "Hi", but maybe, who knows....

...And miles to go before I sleep.

Yes, absolutely yes ALPHA VII PRIME!

I love it! Slow, non-jumping, rock chucking and pink! Terrific!

Can the 360 graphics also make their pink armor have bunny-ears and a "kick me" sign taped to the back?

(please oh please oh please oh please oh please oh please.......)

but as my cousins sister dropped his out of a widow, i let him borrow mine because i was away from home for a week. and when he comes over i let him play XBL in matchmaking because he is pretty good but i had no idea he was cheating until i asked him and he thought it was okay for him without asking me so please lift my suspension. i cannot go on halo 2 without matchmaking

I love how this kid keeps refering to his cousin's sister (Remarkably this would also be his cousin, imagine that?), as him. That's the first case of a di-gender relative i've ever seen. Keep this stuff coming Frankie it's great!

Frankie, why don't you have a gallery for all your mister chief pictures?
Frankie should have a gallery. Does he have his own site like Shishka (and some other just as insignificant Bungie employees)?

i got a question, if u play match making and get matched with a modder and ur team and u quit during the game will it count as modding and will u be suspended o and my pc is usually always running and im using it as a server connected to my friends pc's and stuff and we download alot of stuff andd it strains my connection cuz i also got my little brother playing up stairs and im down here on the 360, will bungie notice the difference between lag and standbuy or cheating or whatever is used for connection cheating??

Ah...the whining of a Banned Cheater is sweeter than any music ever played.

i havent used my account in almost 4 months due to a scholarship that landed me here in Japan until January 2007. Ah, im sure itll be ok......right......right?

Now Grunts that can think sound awesome!!

Now if Grunts can Use strategies, WHY CANT YOU PEOPLE ONLINE USE THEM!?!?

sorry, just a little irritated about those noobs that know nothing of teamwork online.

keep up the whaambulance stuff and the Halo 3 Updates!!

Good luck getting any kind of answer, I posted my concerns back a few pages ago and as expected...nothing. Everyone is still laughing about how poorly someone spelled, because that’s more important then actually answering peoples concerns. If MS plans to get more then just 10% of its customers on Live, this isn’t a good start, considering the customer support for there flag ship title is CRAP. Perhaps what Bungie should do instead of hire more programmers and artists, would be to hire some people with actual people skills. It’s really no wonder why Bungie goes through staff like they do; nobody knows how to communicate professionally there. Don’t get me wrong, they know how to build great games, but if they couldn’t do that well, there company would have gone under long ago from internal problems between staff and the general public lighting fires to there office buildings. Fire one of the people reading ones and zeros and hire someone that doesn’t have the people skills of a rabid animal. That would be a smart business move on Bungies part. I just wanted to say that; you can all continue laughing now.

OMG, I just played my first game with a cheater in it. Dam I never new you could move like super man in the game and kill with just 3 shots. SNAP, well I now someone thats going to get there asses BANNED. I think microsoft let him loose and now this dude is on a rampage again. With a different gamertag. I have to say there are still a bang of cheaters out there.

Maybe with the 360, hacker protected, there won't be any cheating of any kind. Crossing my fingers to the power of the 360 and Halo3.

reply to ALPHA VII PRIME

Wouldn't we all love that to happen to modders? although I still think that the waaahmbulance should be active it's too funny.

Funny to see so many young kids playing this game when it's rated M for mature.

Otherwise, very nice update. I'm still waiting for a new wallpaper to replace this "older" Halo 3 wallpaper. =)

anyone who's played more than you has no life

anyone who's played less than you is a noob

I am offended as to how you talk about the english, i would have expected that from kids on XBOXLIVE or this forum, but not from Bungie, a multinational company.

Other than that, i'll say the obligatory "nice update".
