Wow, I really dont think this will ever be resolved. One of the Bungie Updates had all the trailer and info on HALO 3, you know the one Im talking about, the big one. So a hell of alot more people started coming to the site to see that update! THATS WHY PEOPLE THINK ALL THE UPDATES ARE FOR HALO 3! Im sick and tired of people complaining "this is BUNGIE weekly update, not HALO 3 update" for christs sake HALO 3 = Bungie.
Am I making myself even a little bit clear yet? People came to Bungie to see all that new info on Halo 3, most people being unfamiliar with the way this site works, so the MAJORITY of people think that the Bungie Weekly Updates are for Halo 3 info. Of course every week there is a major letdown because they dont understand its just a bunch of useless mubo jumbo. So what needs to be done, is BUNGIE needs to put up a very public noptice OUTSIDE of its weekly updates, possibly before you can enter the Updates at all, and have it say "THERE IS NO HALO 3 UPDATES, THIS IS JUST SOME USELESS INFO ON WHAT BUNGIE HAD FOR BREAKFAST, WHAT TIME THEY TOOK A PISS, DO NOT EXPECT HALO 3 INFO". People come from search pages or the internet somewhere and they dont know about your little rules and specifications, then they go to the forums asking why there isnt Halo 3 info, and they get ripped apart by the Unofficial Bungie Defence Trolls. Its all really a viscuos cycle, and Im sure that a few people arent even going to fully read through my post, or hahaha they might even read through this post and still run their mouths off, not understanding a single thing i said. I guess that says a few things about the forums being rampant with people who dont/cant read the rest of a thread and come out of nowhere with insults.
So bottom line? A MAJORITY of people, including unfamiliars come here expecting HALO 3 info to be in the Bungie Weekly Update (hmm how could that possibly be misleading?). So if you want to solve the problem, put up a VERY VISABLE NOTICE before people can read the updates, saying
"This isnt for HALO 3 updates guys, yeah sorry pretty much this is a bunch of talk, we can understand how you came here after spending your hard earned cash purchasing our previous titles using up your time to maybe get a few tidbits on Halo 3 which you will also purchase in the future. So nope, no HALO 3 info in here guys. NO HALO 3 INFO."
*sigh*, here come the trolls, completely ignoring the other side of the argument. flame away im going to breakfast.
