Hello, my gamertag is ONLY DESTROYER. I hope you all are having a wonderful day! What I want is a good group of halo players to speed rush experience with the fastest option possible. Tired of dealing with players who cannot hold their own? Who go afk? Who are just plain Christmas noobs?? I would prefer everyone to have a mic so we can talk while we play for when the repetition gets boring and we start unconsciously playing (because we have been doing it so long). Enjoy! Happy legitimate rushing experience grinding for the lucky fellows who join! Regards, GAMERTAG: ONLY DESTROYER

The word "item" was improperly used in context, I pointed it out because you were talking down to me and made an error. Item is a vague word. Be specific when you convey arguments. Do I have to teach you english? I am not your teacher man.... 1st Grade Lesson of the Day: When you refute what a person states it is what society calls an argument. An argument is a connected series of statements or propositions, some of which are intended to provide support, justification or evidence for the truth of another statement or proposition. Arguments consist of one or more premises and a conclusion. And by the way...you are contradicting your own actions. For example, you are stating that I am attempting to act better than others, but you sit there and go on a thesaurus website and talk down to me in the first place, which is the reason this argument took place. You are not even judging anything on the content of this thread, you are judging based off of your opinion towards me as a person. Back to thread please... No, sorry. It does not appear yet. 1) Does not even deserve a response.... 2) Which is why I am switching forums

We are NOT talking about "items" sorry it must be your 5th grade grammar. Honestly you cannot even try to make yourself sound intelligent, please stop...haha. Once you get into a college English class you will realize that using two unnecessary adjectives in one sentence only weakens your argument...lol. Especially adjectives that you looked up on a thesaurus that no one cares about to study. Why are you using thesaurus. Lol, the adjective chauvinistic is fanatically patriotic or of or relating to persons convinced of the superiority of their own gender or kind..... ​which clearly does not illustrate or relate to this conversation, this thread, or me. As far as making myself sound "important" I do not know why you are insinuating this because the way I talk and express is the NORM for me, especially when people talk down to me. You give analogies without "explicit" evidence. An analogy is not evidence, I hate to break it to you sir. You provided nothing. You are arguing on a thread that could easily provide a nice discussion. However, you began off of my mature argument (the thread) by insinuating that I was unintelligent and that I had no idea of what I was talking about. As I have told others, talk down to me and I will talk down to you. I am not showing off, I am not boasting about any type of skills, I am not trying to make myself look intelligent, etc. I am simply trying to make an argument. An argument that you are too delusional to comprehend. You are only making yourself look foolish by calling me unintelligent and also by failing the attempt to make me look dumb.

I NEVER said it made either statement true. It is like you do not read my posts. We are arguing opinion here and I am just providing clarification in a mature, non-aggressive, organized manner. However, you wanted to begin an argument by stating that I have no idea what I am talking about. Next time do not insult and simply state your point, be mature. You try to talk down to me, I will talk down to you. However, since you have not read through the other posts that I refuted I will plainly tell you my argument again and more clearly: Halo 4 Implementing the trueskill system in your game statistics under matchmaking would have no effect on boosting or cheating. People will boost or cheat no matter what. Cheating will exist for every and any game for as long as competitive video games exist, it is just in human nature for people to not follow the rules. By providing halo 4 with a trueskill players that do not care will continue to not care....but the players that care will love the true skill (SEE THE DIFFERENCE?) Okay there are more casual gamers than MLG gamers. But, what makes you think casual gamers will not enjoy the trueskill? Put the trueskill on player stats and maybe the "casual" gamers will be too casual to even observe their multiplayer gamecard statistics. There are halo players that have dedicated competitive gameplay since halo 1 and many of my MLG GameBattles peers enjoyed halo 3 the most because it provided a challenge. My friends claim, "Matchmaking is boring...it is not competitive enough. I never run into decent kids, even in the challenge slayer competition." You are going to say, "the true skill is still there it is just hidden," but I am simply saying why hide it? For those of you who argue..."who cares, it is just a rank, it is just a game, go get a job, your immature (or whatever claim you want to say)...these claims are just about you as a casual gamer. If you are one that does not care about achievements, does not care about statistics, and does not care about having any record of the games you play or you just want to pop the game in and let it run...then that is understandable. You have to think both sides here. A game company should provide satisfaction for everyone and should not lose loyal customers who are fed up with the direction the game is going. Why do people like trueskill? Well why do people like to eat worms on YouTube, why do people like to commit sick crimes? People like trueskill because they just do, there is not real answer. They like the level and feeling good that they have achieved a level based off of skill rather than a skill based off of "play time." In Halo 3 if you were a good player you would rise to the top of the true skill max rank quickly as long as you were good or you had a solid team. I rather played the game a little and represent that I am good rather than play the game a little and look like a noob. So let us end bashing each other in the face with rudeness and get back to the thread. So. "THREAD" discuss your opinion. Maturely and not aggressively and ignorantly. Thank you. Do NOT talk to me like I am dumb. Do NOT talk down to me. Thank You The point is not for bragging rights. The point is for simplicity sake. For example, I want to party up with someone. But, what if he is 10 skill levels below me and he just went -2 for his k/d ratio. I don't want to "assume" it was just a bad a game if he was 10 skill levels below me. 10 skill levels below me could be his true skill for a reason, and I would not want to party up with a 40 because the next game might be all 50s. Sorry I am not a democrat and I am not here to talk politics. I am here to talk about the serious issue of the incorrect insertion of TrueSkill by 343 industries. (Which still has the potential to change with the men and women or boys and girls on this forum).

1) Providing nothing with support of nothing still provided nothing. 2) The TrueSkill System is coming, so this is not redundant. This is NEW. Use a dictionary to understand the term "redundancy." 3) Okay, well I do not believe you. Nor do I have to. 4) I did not say grammar. I am stating that your claim was irrelevant and illogical to the argument. 5) Obviously you are not aware, not everyone got away with cheating. If proper reporting took place with proper evidence the person would a receive a temporary or permanent ban. Also bungie had a very complex system to take cheaters out. Am I saying everyone received a ban? No...the amount of halo players that received halo bans or temp bans for cheating were enormous and the amount of halo players that got away with cheating were miniscule. You Did Not Provide ANY Facts. I Am Not Sure How You Make Logic Straight? Is Logic A Line? I Thought It Was A Term? I never said it was designed to motivated competition so I do not know what you are insinuating this statement. Stop trying so hard to make your text "fluffy" when it really does not have any supporting content to your argument. You do not have accuracy by providing yourself rambling as supporting evidence. TrueSkill benefits halo players of all skill type. I am respectful to people with authority. Some little kid on xbox live does not have authority. The fact that you are telling me to be respectful in a competitive atmosphere and claiming it as immature to not be respectful is hilarious.

What happened to gaming? Since when was your bad bro...and talking trash not fun. It is a part of the competitive online gaming experience and a part of the halo competition in my opinion. Getting mad was a great aspiration for a halo player to get better at the game.

I am simply making an argument about something that I disagree with in the design of the halo 4's online system. You said "which is exactly my point" but did not really draw your point to a sound conclusion. You stated the same thing twice in two sentences and your last sentence was irrelevant.

1) I could say the same thing about Video Games in general? 2) Video games mean nothing to people in the real world, so why play them? 3) The point of true skill in video games and the point of video games in general is for a person to receive self-enjoyment. So why should a person judge what another one person may enjoy?

1) It matters because it existed before. To take away something numerous halo players once loved is ignorance. 2) So you are saying I represent "everything" that represents online gaming. That statement does not really make sense logically, but I represent an individual who enjoys statistical tracking. If I cannot find out how well I am doing and easily compare myself to others I cannot find out how good or bad the person is that I may potentially party up with. I am not going to stat check everyone's true skill on halowaypoint.com.... 3) That is you that will not watch them, only you. You do not represent gaming as a whole. Highly competitive players enjoy tips from players who want to get better, players who want to become pro. 1) Okay well the amount of people who boost is miniscule. Think about it, if people are terrible at the game, why would they boost to a high skill of 50? They will play more difficult people in matchmaking and not play people in their range. 2) Okay well you just said it yourself, the post-carnage report shows how good someone is. Therefore the Trueskill will not negatively affect you personally as a halo 4 gamer. Generally level 50's are that level for a reason...if they do bad in carnage report results then they are obviously frauds... 1) Again, I do not see how I represent gaming as a whole...this just does not make sense logically. 2) However, if I did represent gaming as a whole and I was a disgrace...who cares, I sure do not care about "embarrassment" over a video game. I do not get your point? 3) The way you are typing sounds like you are twelve years old and depressed sir. However, statistics are something I take pride in because it represents my skill. Why play a game if you are bad at it? I have fun playing the game, I would like to see how highly my 18 year old and mature self achieves across the country of competitive gamers... 1) So you are justifying that I do not understand anything. 2) That was the most redundant post I have ever read. 3) I think I saw the word "understand" or comprehend about 7 different times in multiple forms without any supporting evidence. 4) I obviously understand logic and grammar, which are the most important aspects of life. 5) And I definitely understand how a skill system works and how boosters abuse the true skill system...however as I have said before...the amount of people who do this are miniscule. 1) Your statement does not make any sense. Halo 4 will not turn MLG. There is already a hidden true skill system embedded into the system.... 1) How is a skill system an embarrassment to gaming as a whole? Think about these things you say before you type them....

The true skill system needs to be next to your rank or located on the gamer profile! What is the point of wasting time implementing the true skill system on a game if no one will look at it? For example, no one is going to say "You are bad kid....go on halo waypoint and look at my trueskill" No....no one will look at halo waypoint because it takes too much time. Gamers want "simplicity."----That is the main point. The purpose of implementing the true skill system will be to keep the game in promotion with impressive MLG videos on YouTube, MLG events, etc. To not make the true skill system visible to all players not on halo waypoint is ruining the fan base of hardcore players. Suporters For the TrueSkill System On The Actual Halo 4 Game: 1) Bruce Ultra 2) Agony Disagreements, Which I have Refuted:

343 industries, I will prove to you that the saw is the worst weapon possible to insert into MLG. GameBattles competitions put the saw in the MLG maps and it destroys competition. In 1v1's the person with a saw annihilates everyone up close. It is IMPOSSIBLE to use a dmr and beat someone using a saw up close unless the person with the saw is an atrocious halo player. 343 Industries, by reading the feedback on this thread of people supporting my opinion, please take their word. A random sampling of even a few people can represent MLG players as a whole!
