I want a better reason for not allowing us to create or own symbols than because people will make -blam!-'s and swear words. Last time I checked this game was rated Mature. So why the hell would it matter? Can't mature people handle seeing a symbol that resembles a -blam!-? I don't think anyones head would explode.. that's a bull-blam!- reason and you know it.


P.S. Sorry if this topic has already been run in the ground, as I do not frequent these forums.

Well, you also have to remember that different people have different opinions. A -blam!- might not offend you, but to someone else it might. Also, bungie would have to review all of the submitted entrys, and it would take a really long time just to get your symbol approved.

They might, however, put up new symbols for download monthy or so. What I think would be cool if they have a program where you send in suggestions, which bungie would look over and maybe pick yours for the month. There could be many reasons why they don't want to have custom symbols. And I don't really want to see a Master Chief with a -blam- on his shoulder.

You're an idiot. If you are purchasing an M rated game you should be prepaired for offensive content, that's the whole meaning behind the M rating. Plus you'd have to be pretty ignorant to believe you can play an online game without hearing or seeing offensive things.

Yeah, but then what's so special about you and another 10,000 clans having exactly the same symbol. It just demeans the idea of a clan.

Plus people who do make those symbols, usually make clans that only last about a week anyway. Now i'm off to make a poll asking who gives a damn about offensive language.

-Edit- Not that i would use it ofcourse.

You can combine lots of colours, backgrounds, patterns and shapes in Black Arrow. And you can make some very unique symbols.

You won't find another clan with the same symbol.

No I don't think people are idiots because they have different views or opinions. I think you're an idiot because your reasoning behind your answer is nothing short of idiocy.

tokuMi, every post of yours is an argument against letting people design their own avatars.

Keep throwing around insults and I expect that you won't have to worry about custom avatars soon... 'cause being blacklisted will make the whole thing moot for you.

-- Steve also wonders about the M rating, and the immaturity that it seems to draw. Strange coincidence, that.

Nothing I said was ignorant or anything. I stated what I believed in a intelligent manner. My reasons for not having a -blam!- on master chiefs shoulders make alot of sense to me, but hey, to everyone their own. Have a wonderful day...

And the slayer 45, you did state it in an intelligent manner but what you stated was unintelligent. Theres blood and shooting and violance and swearing in this game. How is a little blam here and there really gonna ruin your day?

I don't mind shooting, gore, or volience, I think it made the first Halo fun. I was stating that I don't want to see a -blam!- on Master Chiefs shoulder. It wouldnt ruin my day if I saw one, I just think it would be absurdly retarded.

Yeah, well slayer45, It's my opinion that you're an idiot.

And you shouldn't be playing online games.

The game is rated M so Bungie can create a realistic atmosphere of war...not because they are a company with no morals like Rockstar. Thats all I have to say.

Exactly what I was thinking. Well said.
And just because it's Mature doesn't mean that bad language is included. I don't mind it offending but some people do, as does pictures of *clams* or -blams!-. Same with movies. Some have rated R and are violent but have no language.

The way you said it was the argument - idiot. You are making irrational rants about a system that makes perfect sense.

Bottom line is - the game is gold already, you can't do a thing about it, so do the mature thing and stop -blam!-ing about it.

He wasn't confused, nor was anyone with a modicum of intelligence.

Bungie made the right decision, and if you were as mature as you claim to be, then you would realize it.


BY THE WAY, Nice way to make an unbiased poll, nimrod. Not to mention that this belongs in New Mombasa.

what makes you think that we think you're opinions are short of idiocy? And your's TRULY are.. Bungie has already STATED that it will create TOO MUCH LAG over xbox live for custom symbols on your armour! Now thats a lack of audacity if you ask me.. besides.. bungie will probably make downloadable avatars monthly/weekly for people like YOU who are just plain ignorant.

So.... lemme get this straigt... you make a thread to discuss an issue, and then when they disagree with you, you call them an idiot? Yeah. Real mature. how old are you? I seriously doubt you are mature enough to play dance dance revoloution, let alone halo or halo2. I would say more, but the other folks here seem to have pretty much covered it.

the reason for the inability to TRULY customize logos, is the corupt, and immature minds of many, that would create, not so nice things for their logos.

You're an idiot if you think an M-Rating is an invitation to close-ups of the male & female anatomy, foul language, or drugs.

M Ratings are given to suggestive -blam!- themes, coarse language, and mature subject matter. That means that M-Rated games can include some Tight pants, a flashed breast, goddamn, hell, jesus, etc... - no F*&(*ing, no B****, no 455, none of that. Drug-use is allowed, but only in reference.

Anything with truly heavy -blam!- themes, the coarsest curse-words, and heavy drug use are all parts of AO (Adults Only) rated games.

So, if you think your big "I'm a moron who ignores smart people and keeps yabbering blah-blah-blah-blah" act is going to work because you have the magical "M-Rated" argument, you're wrong. Brutally so.

Get the -blam!- off of the boards, we don't care for your type here.
