Thanks for keeping the community in mind UneasedPeanut. BTW, do not see you as often as in the past, hope all is well with you.

We used to play a very simplified version of this in Halo 2 on Battle Creek. I was quite fun in it's day. We used twin Needlers to mark out a half court on the sniper ramp side of Red Base and the open window to the base was the hoop. With weapon drop you could freely dribble the ball like a pro, but passing was not really possible.

Take care Azaxx, do good in school!

Nice catch adamj! That is what I'm talking about, investigative reporting!

I do wish him luck.........it is this type of courage that advances our societies and technologies. The obvious dangers he will face increase the rush he will feel as he plummets towards earth. I admire and respect him and wish him well.

The time does tend to fly by. So many milestones for the members and the forum have been realized. I am happy to see you and others members still here marking the time with so many different types of achievements and good memories. I hope that many more members continue to reach this milestone along with you.

This topic has a better home in a political or news forum. Being a Halo and gaming related forum, we do not encourage open political debates here. Thank you anyways. Thread locked.
