I honestly don't see what you are trying to do here. You made this thread a few weeks back, with the same results as now.

You are a fan of Waypoint, in the fact that you defend it so passionately, and the forums. Your opinion won't change, nor will the people who post in this thread with their dislike of Waypoint. Therefore, this thread is a pointless volley of arguments.




I am trying to understand the Flood's reasoning for hating the Waypoint forums. So far most of their reasons aren't true, and I've come to the conclusion that most people just jump on a hate train without even knowing the facts.

If you assign every letter of the alphabet a number, a is 1, b is 2, etc., and you take all of the values of the word "MATH", and add them, you get 42. So math is the meaning of life, the universe, and everything.

The only reason why I don't go on it anymore was because of load times. Now that its fixed however, I may get on it some more.

It's pretty simple, their community would rather praise Halo 4 until every last one of them is dead, even then, their tormented souls will still praise the game.

The competitive community should have a right to voice their opinions as well. I really don't give a -blam!- if they are a minority. They have their place in Halo.

Yeah, I've read your OP, and I provided a few reasons. The Waypoint community are a bunch of moronic fanboys who will blindly praise 343 for every move they make. Halo 4 isn't that great. It's a piss-poor excuse of a Halo game.

No, I doubt you read my OP. If you had, you would know that the Waypoint community HATES Halo 4, and there are constant threads there pointing out flaws and how 343 failed. The waypoint forums are more critical of Halo 4 than this forum.

Tin shacks and catfish bones.

I don't like the layout. It's too cluttered. That doesn't mean I hate the website. I don't have time to waste hate on a website that I rarely go to.

So what happened to the "OMG HALO 4 WILL BE AMAZING!" or "HALO 4 WILL BE THE BEST HALOZ OF ALL TIME!" threads? You see, 343 spent 3 years on this game and they have taken so much away that made Halo 3 and Reach successful. The boundless options of Custom Games, the sheer amount of community carnage with the Bungie devs and the gamers, and the story-driven Campaign. 343 may have made a decent story with Halo 4, but I couldn't play it more than once. 343 have butchered the Multiplayer to the point where people refuse to play it. It's a mess, and day in and day out, people are pledging for 343 to fix it.

I want to go onto to their forums just to laugh at their fanboyish asses, but sadly I can't since I'm banned for no damn reason.

No they don't all hate Halo 4. I've been there and you have the intelligent people who accept the games faults and offer solutions - but the fanboys take this as blasphemy and tell you you're an idiot for trying to change their perfect game so you must then be a troll. Then the mods ban you for spam or something like that.

Then of course you have the blind hate, but I like the blind hate because maybe it will wake 343i up........ but it won't of course because they only listen to the blind fanboys.

I hate the new layout. Just when I got used to the old layout, they change it up. Also, some mods and some of the stuck-up members that think they are "all that".

Also seriously guys, show me one example of what you view as "bad moderation" or "unfair moderation". I bet all of you got banned for flaming and or trolling (and insulting others). You're clearly breaking their rules, you'd deserve a ban for that.
I once got banned for making a list of things that I thought ought to be added to Halo 4's Forge and Custom Games.


Show me the thread.

I don't have it bookmarked and I'm not searching for it for you.


Well I can tell you right now the reason you got banned is for flaming other users or probably insulting someone.


WOW that's quite a non-sequitur you got there. "You were banned and aren't willing to waste your time finding the thread, that means you MUST have done something bad to get you banned. It's impossible for a mod to simply ban someone for no reason!"

Just because SPLEEEEENS doesn't want to waste his time finding the thread doesn't make the default reason 'because he was a dick and doesn't wanna prove it'.

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

Wow OP, you sure love making threads criticizing the opinions of others.

I already said how I've never, ever seen a Waypoint mod ban someone unjustly. It's always been for flaming others, insulting others, etc.

Argument from incredulity/ignorance.

Just because you haven't seen it and can't imagine seeing it doesn't mean it doesn't happen. Either you're completely disregarding them, truly don't care enough to look around but yet care enough to complain on another forum, or you're lying to make your argument seem sound. Pick one.

The mods are not as cool as they are here and the community reminds me too much of the worst of the Reach forums.

They are dictators and bullies. One guy was complaining about us talking about what he hate about Halo 4. I told him to get lost and then I get a couple messages from mods basically telling me to watch it.

The fact that you said 'for no reason' after asking 'why' says you are going to be close minded regardless.
