A Question from the Good Halo Players to the Flood

While the number of decent halo players on this site has dwindled over the years to the ~50 that still frequent this website, we've managed to keep the community alive through the use of private groups like SV, FT, WAY, etc. Our question to you is, why are you still here? I know most of the bad halo players (read: the wide majority of the community), were pushed away from the Halo games' forums to the flood when the good players posted on the mains, but why do you continue to return to bungie? I know there's maybe 5 of you are playing Crimson, but as for the rest of you there's pretty much nothing tying you to this website. For all intents and purposes, the bad players who frequented this site back in the day did so to get a chance to talk to the makers of the halo games they were so bad at, while simultaneously causing brain aneurysms for anyone who understood anything at all about how to play halo. At this point in time, that's all over. It just doesn't make sense to us what you're still doing here. The good players have private groups free of the mindless jabber that occurs so often on these forums, and through those groups a true community has formed because of our common halo ability. While there are private groups for the rest of you, the wide majority, especially those with a large number of members, are just a large circle-jerk without any true "community" led by someone with an inferiority complex, at least in part due to their lack of ability at the one thing that brought the wide majority of us to this site, halo.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Biack Rose66 Also, comparing sizes of our video game -blam!- is boring as -blam!-, so I'll humor you with this and then leave. My self stats are above average, I am a player who plays to win a game as opposed to have a bad stats. I easily had better map awareness than you, which I would rather have than a higher k/d. I called out weapons and players with precision. [/quote] My win percentage is reach is over 90% with 2000+ of my games in the MLG playlist and 3 1% Onyx placings. So no, you are not better than me at anything in Reach.

  • This guy pretends he's not getting trashed by the community by acting like only people who argue about skill levels are posting, when in reality, no one cares.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Brilliant [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Biack Rose66 This only warrants a response because I made the mistake and glanced at the url. I figured you would look at my Reach stats instead of a game much less relevant and outdated like Halo 3. I never got a 50 in Halo because my life had more purpose during that time. My priorities in life rested (and still do) with academia as opposed to video games. Your style of writing is so adorable, you act like you have something to prove and have an absurd amount of self-importance. [/quote] That's a terrible excuse. I go to one of the best schools in the world, have a great social life, and I have plenty of time to be very good at halo.[/quote] For someone who guys to the best schools in the world (obvious troll), your logic is certainly flawed, along with the fact you read my post as an excuse. My premise is that I am focused on schoolwork. Your statement that you have a great social life and good at halo is an attempt to validate yourself on your thread for authority of the topic at hand. You should have done that long ago, but the fact that you bring it up here reveals an insecurity or an attempt to cover up a mistake you made whilst trolling. Also, best school =/= hard academia. You could have effectively trolled back by attacking the last sentence of my post. Are you even trying to actually flame? Give me more attention. [Edited on 01.03.2013 6:37 PM PST]

  • It could be possibly because you can talk about almost anything in this forum, argue, and talk to more than 40 users a day that other forum sites only have like 10. In plus, I am waiting for Destiny, I have enjoyed all of Bungie games they have made and plan on seeing what Destiny holds.

When I read his post I coudn't help but picture the typical movie geek with the pen protector in his pocket. It made such a nerdy image in my head, when it sunk in that he's better than me in every way as a human being (he's better at Halo after all), my LOL turned to bile and now I'm depressed.
