I have one simple, little, itsy-bitsy forum improvement that I want to share with you. It is called, My idea. I'm sorry if this has been posted before me.

The flood mainly has the off-topic threads and the other forums do their job. But we may need to improve on these. For the Flood, I think we should add a forum type area like the Forum game room or the Role-playing fortress or just general off-topic chat. You know, forum types. As for the Halo game forums, it should have a section for Info, a section for ideas, a section for fanfics for those inspiring authors, and a section about general Halo chat. As for the gallery, it may remain the same, also the news will remain the same. The classifieds will still be an area for advertising clans and groups. The voting booth will have an off-topic section and a Halo/bungie section. Optimatch will have a section for posting stats, clan war videos, you know the works. The Septagon (Yay!) will have a 7th column chat and a comunnity discussion part. Ideas for the website and for improvement of the 7th column community will also be added. The Underground will be Bungie and the oldschool games because like we know, Myth is the best old-gen game ever, even better than PONG! The Maw section of the forum will be Halo vista and Halo PC discussion as well but with a suggestions and questions section as well. Who would like to see Halo PC be improved by a lot with better graphics and what not. Well that's all for me tonight and I hope that you guys on the Septagon comment. Peace!

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

It might be good to have a Fan-fic forum but I'm not so sure about spreading the Flood out so much. It is a great idea though.

I don't see the point in adding dozens of sub-forums. If people can't post in the correct forum now, what makes you think they'll do it if this idea is implemented?

Old school Bungie, born and raised,
In the Septagon is where I spend most of my days.
Relaxin', maxin', posting all cool,
Talking about Halo, life and some school.
Got in one little argument, and the mods got scared,
they said "You're gonna get banned and your member title'll be bare!"

For some reason, a few moderators (or ex-moderators in Shishka's case) don't like fan-fic threads...

A pretty senseless opinion, if you ask me...

I do it for Ada

I have returned

I don't think we should split up the forums because it might make some sub-forums less used.

There are plenty of private groups that have a lot of rpgs and games. The Flood doesn't need to include them.

Owner, it is a good idea but I don't think it will work. It is just to much trouble for some of these new "forums" or "sub-forums", and there is allot of confusement on the placement of threads as it is.

All we need is a Halo General forum.

A good fan-fic forum is a little site I like to call Fanfiction.net. Its easy to navigate and its full of great fanfics by great authors like Mr. Clark and Soulguard.

It doesn't have a spellchecker.

You can download a spell checker to where it is right under the adress bar on the internet. I do.

Hey, does anyone know why there isn't a Halo movie or Halo Wars forum?

Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to say thread. I meant why isn't there a Halo Wars or Halo movie Forum. You know, like the Septagon.

Oh, ok. I dunno. I'm not sure where to talk about it either.

I think that there's not forums about those topics because there not exactly made by Bungie. Actually, now that I think about it, I've never heard Bungie officially say that there's going to be a Halo movie. Correct me if I'm wrong, though.

Yo Halo53, I'm real happy for you and I'ma let you finish, but Beyonce had one of the best bungie.net profiles of all time. OF ALL TIME!

I remember when another website somewhat related to this started breaking down every forum into 5 different forums. I think I made some comment asking when they were going to make the "forum forum"

I personally don't see the need for breaking up forums too much. I mean worst case scenario if you had a specific topic like fan fic or whatever that you wanted to discuss, you could just make a chapter for it and bam, you've got your very own forum.
