I suggest that we give optimatch's desciption a change. Don't put "halo2 xbox live", because people think that "live" is the noun there and they post crap non-related to the playlists.


Maybe if we can have a playlist and a live forum. The live forum can be used in general and be for questions about bannings, questions about how to connect, lag/ping issues, ect.

Now look heres the thing, all the spam is going to go there too right? The "OMG I got cheated, ban him!!!" will appear there obviously, however I think it will be for the best. Why? Think about it. When asking for help, who really helps? the good people who take time out of their lives to think and answer logically. The people who want to help can sift through a few threads and help those who need help AND everyone else, won't have to see the spam in the threads they go to.


Im just tossing the ball here, what do you guys think?

I'd like to see something like that, although XBL doesn'te exactly = Bungie although people do seem to see it that way as often they only play H2 on XBL. I don't think it'd cut down on spam because morons would be morons no matter how much we would like them to use common sense.

The "Live" forum may not see alot of usage overall either.
I think what you meant by thread was forum right? If not I'm way off :S

Sorry for Blasphemy's pessimistic views.

Yeah whoops, changed it now. Thanks. ;)

Or what if Bungie makes an Xbox live forum and the moment someone clicks on it.... BAM! they get banned.


Jk.... or am I?

I work at Microsoft. I have nothing to do with Halo and nothing I say is "the official word".

That's pretty much was Zanzibar used to be i think

Maybe they could just change the description to simply "halo 2 playlists" or something to that effect so that it's on one line.

Yeah, that would be good too. It might encourage new (and mad) users to read around.



Or maybe...

What if bungie made it so that You HAVE to read the rules before posting. Like maybe its a flash and gives it sentence by sentence and you can't stop it? I dunno, or maybe not the whole rules, but gives the "good stuff".


Or maybe in optimatch make a thread titled.. "Got cheated? Come here!"

Then the first post says... "Send an email to h2cheats@microsoft.com and don't post about it".

Or... remember how there used to be a cheater thread before? What fi that was brought back just to divert spam into there? Nobody really needs to pay attention to it, but it would be a good spam collecter.

Good idea. What's funny is that I've never seen Blasphemy or Vendeta in the Septagon lol.


The idiots are usually in the Halo forums, so I tend to frequent there more >.>

Mourne not your comrades who must dwell / too strong to strive -
Within each steel-bound coffin of a cell, / Buried alive;
But rather mourne the apathetic throng / The cowed, and the meek -
Who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong / And dare not speak.

Speaking of changes, is anyone else seeing that?----------->

I'm talking about the graphic thing under the side navigation panels and the navbar. Is it just me, or did it change recently? As in, today, the last few hours. Or has it been that way for a while, and I just noticed? Unless of course my computer is doing it, and no one will know what I'm talking about.

Edit: Nevermind. It isn't my imagination, or my computer. It looks like we're getting a new look, at least a minor one.

Edit 2: *blinks* uh... or not? Seems to be back to normal. I'm just going to be quiet now.
