Original Accounters Unite!
I am proud to say that this is my first and only account. I have had this since I purchased Halo 3 in October and I don't intend to start a new one just to get a 45-50.
If I did get a new account it probably wouldn't be that hard to hit 45 but it wouldn't feel like that was my true skill (no pun intended). The system was designed for people to level off at about their skill level and then if you got better over time you could level up slowly.
Now, this system is being ruined by everyone just saying "Hey I'm better now and I don't want to wait for the ranks to catch up with my skill so I'll just start a new account." I'm not fully hating on you guys who do this because it is tempting to do. However, this kinda destroys the whole system by allowing those players to mess up other players' win streaks on their way up to 50 or whatever (you need win streaks to move up ranks typically). I won't really spend a lot of time there because almost everyone is aware of the problem.
This isn't a thread for dissing new accounters mainly, this is a thread where people can post "Yeah, I am on my first account and I am proud of it." Be it a staff captain, Field Major, or even a General, if it's your first account, let's hear it!
Edit- I have actually had this gamertag since I got live during Halo 2. I forgot about that. It's not a competition to see who has had it the longest but it is cool to see people sticking to their original accounts since way back when.

Year Number Three Activated! Now im covered until August of next year

Thank you force colonel ftw

I'm on a second account and I can see myself reaching 50 on this one. It's not because I'm ranking up easier it's because I'm better now. I've made the switch to bumper jumper so I win a lot of BR fights. I play smart and die a lot less. i get MVP around half the time. You shouldn't be mad at second accounters, they will quickly get to their real level and then will be playing people of equal skill, no harm done really.

My original account! ^_^
-
I've had this account since September 2005, and i don't plan on making another account [i]ever[/i]. The only thing i'll change is the name when i get bored of this one.

The fact that you've only had that account since September 2007 doesn't make it that great. I've had my first account since April 2005. I have a lot of games under my belt.
-

Original/First and only account here, I'm a Force Colonel, and I love how the booster generals and brigadiers poke fun, and then get beat, if you ever become a gold-bar, you'll see what I mean. It's a satisfying feeling :) *Sign*

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] clinical cynic [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] TheDogFromHell [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] BoydtheUsurper ...I play when I can but it gets hard now that the twins are mobile and like to shut off my 360.... [/quote] I for one would pay money to see that video footage. I would wager that they laugh their heads off as they flee the scene of the crime. [/quote] I have the video i will upload it to my file share!!! I got a Frenzy in Lone Wolves and they turned it off like three times.. Its funny as hell you can see me standing there when they shut it off firing in random directions (my controller started to vibrate while I was waiting for the TV to fire back on).... I will add the video back to my file share tonight and supply a link for those interested....

My friends, the forum I launched is off to a good start, but most of the response thus far has been from my detractors. A show of support for those loyal to the principle of original accounts is vital.
