Then every mod responsible for this outcome should personally and publically give GhaleonEB an apology as well as being be de-modded and banned.

This forum is for the users, not the mods.

I've got the OP backed up on a text file, so I can re-start the thread whenever. Just post in this one when you find if it's possible or not and I'll start a new one if needed.

I should mention that I'm going to probably be offline most of the day, starting in about 25 minutes, so if it is needed I might end up re-starting it in the evening.

Seems like someone finished it for us. If this is not a joke. I wouldn't go through the trouble of making a new one. And for the most part the thread was spoiler free. Oh well. I need some co-op partners tonight. Anyone interested?

Banned for a month? hes lucky hes a mod I guess. What he did was way more than just say something stupid in a forum post. Abusing his power like that is worst thing he could do.

Worst case scenario, it can be deleted later.

Right. A lot of folks have the game - we need a thread to post in (one that's not like this one).

But it was a "rejected script".. doesn't that mean that it doesn't actually happen?
Click to expand...

The way read it, it was within the context of the game then talked about the script.

Either way it appeared to be about the game, truth of not its misleading.

You know what pisses me off about this though, it's not so much that the thread got deleted but that it was replaced with some shitty OP....a shitty OP with freakin' story spoilers. I've been trying my best to avoid spoilers at all costs and I've got one more day 'til I have the game and then I read that. By a mod no less. That's bullshit.

Exactly. Maybe it's time to examine the joke trolling done by staff, evil0re?

This is really a shame. I know the internet forums is hardly serious business but respecting people's work and input should be universal, regardless of context and location.

Exactly. It has nothing to do with fanboy bitter tears, it's about respecting the monumental amount of work Ghaleon did, lol posts not withfuckingstanding.

Stop with the lynch mob already - Tre was punished, Ghaleon has a backup ready to go and EviLore is hot at work restoring the other thread.


My god, Wollan tried to put this thread back on track, now it's high time the other Halo fans actually start talking about the game again.

And with that said... damn lucky Australian sobs!

This would actually be a great prank if the original thread went up again after an hour or so...

Even though this is "just" a internet message board about "just" videogames, IF the thread is gone forever then it is not a funny prank but bad taste.
