Fourscore and 1 year ago minus eighty years, a Halo lover with the gamer tag DeathByFae set out in search of people who had the same interests as her. Since This particular Halo fan enjoyed writing, the obvious thing to do was join a fan forum. After joining Waypoint-- and realizing that it sucked so badly, because the community there lacked any form of… Well, communityism for lack of a better (or real) term-- she thought that there was no hope. She thought that she would never find a forum where people actually enjoyed talking to each other and playing Halo together.
It wasn't long before the link for 343i Community Forum popped up, and without hope, this chick (who is super awesome, btw) decided to click on the link.
Upon clicking the link and creating an account, this groovy chick realized something. There was a shout box, and people were actually making jokes with each other, and discussing things other than Halo. This is the first thing that really made this fan- Okay, so if you haven't figured this out yet, this is pretty much an autobiography about me, so I'm going to stop talking in third person -stick around. The air was immediately welcoming and fun, with so many interesting people to talk with, it was never boring! So a month passed, and then another, and then another, until finally, today, on this very day, (St. Patrick's Day, to be exact) one entire year elapsed. Now, I know it may seem like but a speck of time compared to how long some other members have been apart of this community, but even though a mere speck, tis been an enjoyable one. So now, what exactly has made this year so interesting?
Well, all of you! I love how I can find a conversation about literally anything on this forum, and I love how everyone can joke around with anyone. This truly is a community of Halo fans, and I'm so happy that my procrastination on March 17th, 2014 in Spanish class led me to this great forum! With so many events and interesting people, I'm never bored(:
It wasn't long before I stopped coming to the site just to talk about Halo, and started visiting for other things as well!
If I wanted to talk about anime, I could talk with Delpen, Ash, AnimeAddict, Melody, Direct_Otaku, and so many others!!!
If I wanted to talk about art, I could talk to Jack, AnimeAddict, Austin, and Selfie!
If I wanted to just chat with someone about something unrelated to the forum, again I could talk to Selfie, Twin, and Delpen!
If I need help with something on the forum, I could talk to Azaxx, Drizzy, RedStarRocket, or any of the Community Moderators!
If there was anything on earth I didn't know, I could just ask The Director!
If I wanted a friendly conversation, there is Ash, Melody, Edward Kenyway, The Dumb Marine, Halo5Follower, and pretty much everyone else...
If I needed some writing advice, I think Self Destruct and Fishy could help me out!
There are so many members from so many difference countries that I can learn so much from, and that's something that is so cool!
If you weren't mentioned, it's not because I don't love you, it's just because I can't type anymore >.<
Anyway, thank you to EVERY SINGLE MEMBER for putting up with me for a year and making it a great one! Hoping to have so many more memories on this forum.
HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!!!
