The original poster is another idiot with no appreciation for the story.
The Arbiter was put in to make the Covenant into people with thoughts and feelings about particular subjects and it really drove the plot of Halo 2 along. If the Humans/Elites/Grunts/Hunters want to survive, they will team up in their best interest.
As for the Arbiter, he was a great plot element because of the fact that he simply learned that his whole life was a lie. I loved that about his character and how he deals with it by helping to initate the Covenant Civil War.
Once again, act with more maturity, or go shoot yourself in both hands. Either way is fine with me. I don't agree with him being immature and an idiot, but I agree he should stop being so close minded. The Arbiter was put in the game as a gateway to understanding the Covenant.And it was effective. Unlike the Chief, The Arbiter has a more dynamic ttitude and change, from being shamed and burned, turning into the Arbiter, being betrayed by the Prophets, etc. He is more dynamic. The Chief barely talks(i'm not one sided, i'm just telling you the truth). I liked the Arbiter. And they cannot take him out now.
