I'm completely serious. Almost all of the new users and fanboys post on Mombasa, but almost all of the Flood users are completely versed on the Bungie rules. Less flaming, less capitals, more happy. Seriously. When have you ever seen Texas Ben or Xeroh flame anyone? Well.... Ben likes to flame. But that's not my point! In my opinion, this is the best forum ever.

I agree with you, Grammaticaly Incorrect people are very annoying. If they don't even bother trying to spell I don't even bother trying to read their post.

I have a feeling that as soon as the fanboy community learns of this thread's existance, they will flood it like a Texas basin in the heart of winter.

Almost everyone who posts on New Mombasa never:

A.) Uses capital letters when appropriate
B.) Can resist the urge to add a !blam! between each word
C.) Or be personable

Well, those are my thoughts anyway. Go grammaticlly correct people!

We’ve watched while the stars burned
Out, and creation played in reverse.
The Universe freezing in half-light.
Once I thought to escape.
To end a master, step out of the
Path of collapse. Escape would make us God.
Yet I cannot help but remember one enigma,
A hybrid, elusive destroyer.
This is the one mystery I have not solved.
The only element unaccounted for.

I personally would have to say that The Septagon members have a slight edge over the Flood members, but that's just me.

What Septagon members?
If there were any then yes, they might have an edge. However, there are about three people in the whole Septagon.
And yes, the Flood is cool. I rember back in the days when you could make a thread like "Are you wearing pants?"
We have come a long way.

I'm not great at typing, or spelling, but there is a point where you do have to try a little to be understood. By the way, are you wearing pants?

I can account for him, and no, he is not.

Heck no kidding. I just read one topic entry in New Mombasa and my head nearly imploded. Talk about instant braincell loss.

Poor grammar is one reason why I hate the Internet. The one exception for me is that I hate the word "grammatically". There is no "T" in "Grammar", and it should thusly be "Grammarically". Even if you try to correct me, I'll always say grammarically.

Yeah, I've been in New Mombasa for the past while...all I gotta say is that it's ugly down there. Just a week ago we had this person, who I swear was just barely a step above the level of Primordial Scum, start spamming the website with this really annoying virus-like -blam!- -blam!- pop-up. Sad times, those were. And now, he's back under a different alias and IP address doing the same thing. Also, it's chock full of idiots who post the same subject like fourty billion times because they aren't smart enough to actually look through the friggin' forums and find what they want. The complete lack of respect for spelling, grammar, syntax, comprehensibility, and punctuation of English is just the icing on the cake.

Dark, sad, iniquitious (I hope that's a word) times are upon the New Mombasa thread. What we need is some swift doomination on the part of the moderators. Pfft, what am I saying? That won't happen for a while.

*sigh* I remember the day when New Mombasa was full of intelligent, deep-thinking people. I was part of the group that started the really really huge Halo 2 story speculation thread that addressed the whole issue with the Covies invading Africa...those were some good times. Now it has degraded into nothing more than a writhing hive of idiocy.

I think I'm gonna come back to the Flood, where I started out originally. All the smart people moved outta NM and came here.

I agree. Hell, I might as well start posting in the 'Laser Wars' thread..
New Mombasa is falling apart. After the release of Halo 2, I'm going to stick expressly to the flood for a full month to let it all calm down.

Great strategy.

I know! Somehow, we should find a way to banish the New Mombasa thread to the moon! That way, not only will all the whiners quit -blam!-ing about spoilers, but all the idiots--ah, crap. They'll all come back to The Flood. Nevermind.

Keep New Mombasa and re-name it "Sanctuary of Stupid."

I went to New Mombasa first, needless to say my eyes bled for a half an hour. So now I post in the Flood forum.
