[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] OrderedComa [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Spartan1995324[/quote] Being wary isn't the same as wanting to continue fighting and exterminating them though. There's nothing funky about being wary even if they like them, I wouldn't find that weird at all, not really anyway.[/quote]It's a preventative measure. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] OrderedComa You seem to be grossly underestimating the passage of time and how that plays out on feelings and emotions...after all the people who've directly participated in the war have died off, there isn't going to be anymore intense hatred, it's eventually going to fizzle out as anything widespread. Take the Holocaust for instance, it's always going to be a sore spot between Israel and Germany, but the two nations get on well enough with each other (well about as well as Israel gets on with any other nation...they're rather suspicious of everyone, and with fairly good reason) and Jews and Germans get on well enough with each other...time fixes everything.[/quote]Yeah it does. But not 4 years after the war. you need a decade at least... [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] OrderedComa And after a 30+ year war, humanity is tired of fighting, and the Elites are still about a million times stronger than humanity militarily, if war actually was started up again they'd stomp all over whatever humans fought them just like what happened during the Human-Covenant War...and advances with Forerunner technology are not going to be made quickly, by the time humanity would be able to put up any kind of decent fight against the Elites or any other faction using all Covenant technology, the emotions of the war would have long faded from mainstream opinion and view.[/quote]Elites are stronger than humans right now... Which is EXACTLY why the Elites want to crush the Humans, before the Humans can actually put up a fight. They want to end the threat once and for. Try to see things not as an outside observer but as an actual Elite living on Sangheilos. They don't want Humanity to come back and haunt them for their sins. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] OrderedComa No, what Parangosky is doing is being a petty -blam!-. Her actions are not helping humanity in any way are just the seeds for more war if not handled properly, which is what's happening, she is displaying every ounce of incompetence and lunacy she has. All of Parangosky's actions and manipulations are just the seeds for humanity's extermination. Both sides are tired of fighting and don't want more war....but because Parangosky is an arrogant -blam!- and thinks she knows better than anyone, she's decided to be a traitor and put her own interests before the UNSC's or humanity's.[/quote]Obviously no one wants a war, they just have different ways of trying to end. Some want to end it with the complete annihilation of their enemies. Others want to end it through peace. Parangosky is trying to buy time for Humanity to rebuild. While I don't agree with her method, I can why she did it. I don't support it, but because I don't like it doesn't mean it's totally wrong. If the Elites are fighting the Brutes AND themselves, they won't have as much of an interest/time to deal with Humans. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] OrderedComa And, no actually, all it takes to retcon anything is a few simple sentences. [/quote]They could make the whole thing non-canon... But the game "Halo 4" is already coming out. Events have already been set in place. [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] OrderedComa [quote][b]Posted by:[/b]Spartan1995324 Though I disagree with Coma on any subjects, he knows his stuff.[/quote] Actually "he", should be "she", haha :P But that's ok, it's impossible to tell what gender someone is online usually unless they tell.[/quote]Well then, [i]this changes everything...[/i] No not really.
