Just got my loot crate, I’m like a giddy little school girl (no offense) these are friggen awesome! Hoodie, action figures, plush doll, Spartan pin, one kick–Yoink- picture and a satchel, I’d say that’s worth a good amount over what I paid! Wow, I’m actually really satisfied and excited for the next one, I didn’t know I got the legendary crate either, SWEET!
Still waiting on mine but I cant wait!!
Cool. Whenever I get a place for myself I would love to pick one of theese bad boys up.
Huh, that’s a rare surprise. People getting what they paid for!
Hope you have all the HALO swag by the end of your subscription 
Dat emblem tho
My brother used to work at McDonald’s, and he told me something that absolutely changed how I think about the making of things. He told me that when McDonald’s makes a new burger, that’s when they put the most effort into it. Over time, they scale back the quality of the ingredients in order to save. Granted, this sounds like conjecture on my brother’s part, because he was working at a franchise and not somewhere with authoritative knowledge on the subject. I can’t claim to be spouting actual fact, here.
But what it made me realize is that whether or not he’s actually right in that one case, he’s generally right in the broader sense. When something is new, that’s usually when the company making it tries their hardest to make it great – because it’s new, an unknown, and they have to prove to everyone why they should want it. All companies that are subject to the stock market must always try to squeeze more profits out of everything they do year after year (or else they could lose their jobs), so if they aren’t always coming up with new products to target new markets, they have to be reducing the cost of production on what they have without charging less, to create higher profits. I’m sure what a given company “has” to do is not so cut and dry as that – and I don’t mean to say that every company must do that with everything they do – but this is a generality that can apply to just about anything.
One might see this as depressing, 'cause one way to look at it is that once you get something new, it could be all downhill from there. How I see it, though, is that something new is awesome. It being the first of its kind may actually mean it’s the best (or not. Who knows!).
I’m glad to hear that the first Halo lootcrate was great. I should have probably bought into it, but I feared that I had no place for physical goods. Shouldn’t have stopped me, 'cause I think I could have gotten away with just getting the very first one and leaving it at that. And telling myself, of course, that I got the best one, without any proof one way or the other.
Getting mine tomorrow!!!

You should post more often on the message boards, there is a massive void of intelligence around these parts.

No u suk im supir in- tell- i -jint. u r Stu pidd. haha lol.
… But I might have to agree to your comment, good sir.
D’aw, thanks. I post here and there, every few days. It’s one of those things where I’ll come on, kinda go down the list of recent topics, and then be on my way. I don’t think it’s intelligence people lack, here. They lack perspective, and that’s not something an internet argument can instill in someone that isn’t already in the right state of mind to receive that change.
Sounds bad Yoink-
