Look, this forum is in terrible condition. There are spammers, repeated threads, flamers, and just overall jerks and idiots. It needs to stop. I am aware that there is a Search feature in the process of being created but I don't think that alone would help. What I am proposing is that this forum do a complete makeover.
(This would all need to be done after a Search button is implemented)
1. We would have to delete all of the non-Hotopic posts. Your ideas could be reposted later.
2. When you create a thread, you would choose an overall category it would fall into. Theory, weapons, plot etc. Then, when you use the Search option, you would search the category and not the threads with the words you searched in them. This would create almost mini-forums and sould clean this forum pretty well.
3. The Hotopic posts would then be categorized.
Summary: Delete useless threads and make categories to put the good ones in. Then use the Search option to find a thread that already is created about what you wanted to say. You then post in that thread removing repeated threads. Spammers and rulebreakers would not be tolerated due to the New and Improved Ninjas and in my opinion, our Halo 3 forum will be a happy place.
*Ninjas*
We need more Ninjas and the ones we have need to be meanerI am up late at night all the time and none of the Ninjas are active. It seems to me that the problem is timezones. We need at least two ninjas to be awake and active at all times. The idiocy, flaming, and spamming is completely out of control and those who have authority simply can't handle it on their own.They are nice guys, I have nothing against them, but locking a thread doesn't do much damage. We need someone who has no tolerance for rulebreakers and isn't afraid to put his foot down. In other words, we need more Shishkas and Achronos. I see people break rules all the time and it goes unpunished. A person will create a nonsense thread and it will be locked. The same person will create another nonsense thread and will be warned. Finally on the third or sometimes fourth thread, the user will be temporarily or permanently Blacklisted. This obviously isn't effective because I keep seeing the same morons over and over.
Things not tolerated:
-Spam
-Repeated Threads
-Flamers
-Religous or Racial References
-Political Discussions
-The word "noob" and variations of it
-Bumping or Double Posts
-And all other things I can't think of that are listed by Bungie
Ideas-Criticism-Opinions-No Flames I am open to suggestions, but now I am going to bed.
This is what I am talking about http://bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=8242441
