*Original post. Click at your own discretion.

I am posting this here. In this forum. In this thread.

Why?

Because when I click on the main forum page. Keyword, Main Forum Page. It states this:

Halo 4
Discuss all things Halo 4

So here I am. Doing just that. Just as the directions and description dictates.

OK, now to the post.

I honestly believe what I am saying in this post. Probably be banned, locked, or deleted for it. Which honestly hope it is. Would only further prove my point about Halo and the forums here. Let me repeat that: Probably be banned, locked, or deleted for it. Which honestly hope it is. Would only further prove my point about Halo and the forums here.

The real reason the Halo population is going down is not because of DMRs, or playlists, or magnetism, or Visible ranks, or anything else. It is going down because there is not a good forum to go and talk about Halo.

Try posting here and the way this forum is moderated is you get slammed, scammed, or enacted on by overpowered individuals. Those who post here, and there are lots of us, know exactly what I am talking about.

You have a good conversation and it is locked, banned, or just power tripped out on.

I have contributed on many posts and reading many posts with great conversation until, well . . . one of the above happens.

The veterans of this forum know exactly what people we are talking about. Of course we can not name names cause that is bad and not allowed. I know this. Know this as I sit here typing eating my fav candy bar a Snickers, wishing it was my fav cookie instead, the snicker Doodle. Enough said about that . . . long time veteran forum posters know EXACTLY what I mean.

Really wish 343i would remove and lessen the power of people affiliated with this site. They are only enabling them to alienate, infuriate, and turn away people that want to play and talk Halo.

I care about Halo. A long time Halo fan since Day One. I have also voted with my money purchasing Limited Editions of the game, Legendary Editions of the game, Reach and Halo 4 consoles just to share some of my “voting” with dollars.

I think we as Halo gamers should also demand we are allowed to have discussions without them being flippantly redirected to like “This thread belongs here (x)”.

If we post in a forum that states:

Halo 4
Discuss all things Halo 4

Then by gosh if I post about Halo there. Let. It. Be.

So everyone that agrees, or even feels there is truth to this thread, and able to read this before the inevitable lock, delete, or ban, just post something.

Let me close with this:

Probably be banned, locked, or deleted for it. Which honestly hope it is. Would only further prove my point about Halo and the forums here.

Very sad what Halo is becoming. Sad, indeed.

I also extend an open invitation for BS Angel (or any moderator on this forum) to PM me and discuss anything about this thread with me in a professional manner.

This is probably my favourite post on this entire website. Also I could not agree with you more. 343 refuses to admit that their game is broken beyond belief, so they ban anyone who talks about it. I was thinking about making a petition that would fix most of the problems with the game.

Guess what? I will probably be banned for saying that.

Agreed the population is going down , but not because of the forums . Not everyone who plays Halo uses these forums. But I believe due to it being nothing like past Halo’s gameplay wise online

Lol, as if they exist.

No, the real problem with this forum is that it’s full of ignorant fools.

May want to go back and read your last post.

It may aid in why you are not experiencing good conversation with fellow gamers.

OOOOOOOoooh! Rebels!

Chill you guys, I love this game as much as the next guy.
But in all reality, it’s JUST a game. 343 didn’t just evict you from your home.

It is stupid how they lock threads for no reason sometimes but do you really think the forums have anything to do with the low population? The dmr, ordinance drops, a 1sk loadout weapon, instant respawn, no proper ranking system, a wall hack AA, terrible maps and bunch of other game breaking crap is why the population is so low.

Which one, the one in the “How to screw up Halo” thread, in which I respond to a completely expected lack of comprehension or sense, or the one in this thread, in which I, well, do it again?

True.

But there remains the question of how much the First Amendment is believed by those that review this site.

Long time veterans of this site know exactly what and who I mean.

LOL… so you really think the population is going down because of the forums? That has to be the most idiotic thing I have read on these forums… the majority of people that play Halo don’t even use these forums and probably don’t even know about them. Secondly the games population is decreasing because of the actual game play and lack of essential components… such as a ranking system for one. It’s not because of the forums…

^^LOL Citing the First Amendment like anyone outside the USA actually believes in that garbage haha.

If you dont like this forum why dont you give the 343 forum a try instead?

Otherwise, Halo’s population has nothing to do with forum mods and all population discussion should be conducted in the Daily Population Thread.

Peace

*Would actually love to see the MODs call your bluff and leave this thread open to prove a point ;p

We just reviewed your history. You have received four warnings/bans for calling out (as you did in this thread), three warnings/bans for flaming, and one warning/ban for a discriminatory post. The issue is not that you cannot discuss certain topics but instead how you’re doing it. All subjects related to Halo are welcome here, as long as you are treating your fellow forum members with common courtesy and respect.
