When I first joined the Halo community and signed up here at 343i.org, I did so with no thoughts of a lasting membership. I was looking for short-term help in operating Halo: Reach's File Share, but I ended up staying longer than I ever expected. Honestly, I fell in love with the community here and determined in myself that I would do my best to give back to the Community I had come to enjoy so thoroughly. Eventually I was offered a position on the staff as a Newsgroup writer- a position I was far from familiar with, having only posted a few articles prior to joining the team alongside Adam91 and Cooliest. While I didn't particularly enjoy the brutal task of searching for the latest news and typing it up, I did enjoy being part of what keeps the community active and closely knit. As the summer of 2014 rolled in, I knew that I would be partaking in a variety of endeavors that would keep me away from the gaming community and my laptop for a good chunk of the summer. I didn't want to occupy a staff postion that I wouldn't utilize and was instead moved to Communications to run the Community's Twitter. Upon returning I was offered the chance to join the ranks of one of the most demanding positions in the community; one requiring mature discernment and responsibility. I accepted and in August of 2014 I became a Community Moderator. I do so enjoy being a part of this community. I've had the opportunity to work on incredible projects with some of the most prominent members of this site, and I've been befriended by so very many of you. I've never experienced a community that has what this Forum has in terms of leadership, all the way down to new members that are already doing things to help the community. To receiving my first friendly PM from Victory Element, To spending hours chatting with Azaxx, To laughing with AD and Spades on Friday night, To running for President alongside Mayh3m (Tony Stark; SilverCenturion; whatever he's calling himself this week) and then later winning it alongisde Vitamin PWN, To that trading card game we set out to work on when Bnus first joined, (Even though I kept forgetting to check the skype chat :T) To that 2014 Fresh Start that would've never happened had Osi not been persistent in getting my attention, To the listening of Sparky's bedtime story (and the losing of its bookform and the burningdown of the house D:) To the laughing with Cooliest as Osi shot the rocket launcher in fornt of the wharthog, (That was the best campaign run ever.) To the tutilage of Halo and Moderating under Mayh3m, (Even though I showed you a thing or two when we took it to Madden ;D) To the PM subfolders that never were, (Red.wai ;- To the Truth or Dare game that left me sore from laughter, To the many time I managed to give Red a mini-stroke, (I'm so glad you survived) To Austin, and his love of beanies (and Taylor Swift) To Zelda and Hippie for putting up with my jokes, To Halo5Follower's friendship and cat, To debating Dircector, losing, and trying again anyways, To Danny's good luck that never was, To each and everyone of the members that made coming here everyday special, Thank You. I have so many memories with so many of you, but I only have so much time to dedicate. I love being a member of this Forum- that will never change. I write all of this to say, my life is changing. I've moved once in the past few months, and will be moving again within the coming months. I'm nearing the end of high school and preparing for college. I will be facing a lot of firsts, but no matter how much my life changes, one thing will remain the same- I love this Forum. I'll always remember the members here. Thanks for the memories. -BZ1

NOTE: THIS IS PURELY FOR FUN AND IN NO WAY DO YOU GAIN ANY REAL RANKING OR POWER IN THE COMMUNITY. NOT OFFICIALLY ANYWAY. Alright boys and girls, it's that time again. It's time to give the current presidents the boot and get a new one, or two possibly. To those who are new to this, I have a presidential election for the forum every 4 months on the dot. Okay, more or less. Election day is always on the dot though. I know that one for a fact. Anyway, I started this a while back, it's a fun little game on the forum. I attempt to run these things as independently of the moderators and other staff as possible, since this is unofficial. There are rules to be followed and if you choose to not follow them, a request will be made to have your post removed from this and all election related threads and you will be bared from future elections. Seems fair, right? Okay, here's the important part right here. The rules. First, before I list them, all rules and they're meaning as to whether or not one was broken will ultimately be decided by me. I'm a merciful behind the scenes ruler though, so I'll give warnings if I don't think it's a bad breach. (Also, RedStarRocket has the right to change the rules) THE RULES: 1. In order to participate you must get two nominations. 2. You cannot nominate yourself. 3. You can only nominate ONE member. 4. All nominations must be made in this thread. 5. All candidates have the right to a manager and to campaign on the forum in the offbeat section. 6. Absolutely ALL advertisement of any kind for any candidate is strictly prohibited from the main thread. (this one) 7. Moderators are not allowed to run for president unless they have been a president in the past. 8. Every past president has the right to be re-elected if they get nominated. 9. READ ALL POSTS MADE IN THE THREAD BEFORE YOU NOMINATE SOMEONE! 10. If someone already has two nominations, you can't nominate them. 11. No being a jerk to others in any way, even a joking manner. It hurts and offends others. So don't do it. 12. A candidate that has received two nominations can withdraw from the race at any time. 13. A candidate who has withdrawn from the race can join back any time before the end of the nomination period. 14. You must have fun at all times during the next two weeks. Candidates: The Stig Bnus Maestro Yoshi1176 Sikslik7 Ledgend1221 UNSC Spartan-II Azaxx D-38 Boss Drizzy_Dan The nomination period ends in one week. After that the campaigning will begin for four days. You are free to campaign from the moment you are nominated fully. After the four days, it gets interesting. Have fun everyone. :3

OK. Hillo! WEll I got bored and decided to draw some Halo pictures, with a pencil, no colours. And I asked if anyone wanted a picture done. Vitamin PWN said yes, and gave me a ODST image. So i did it and here you go Vit! If anyone want pictures done by me for them, request here. That's if you want epic drawings Note, they have to be related to Halo, and you must provide an image. [Also I know that picture is hard to see, I didnt have a camera so I had to use the ipad lol]

Ok, HILLO, thought i might say that! Not long ago i made a topic of my 500th post, with members who at the time made a difference to me on this site. But this topic is about who helped me from when i started here, to this post. This is a very selective group of people, please don't be hurt if you aren't mentioned, as i said this people who have been there ALL of the time i have been here. The order is in order of posts, not order of awesomeness. Spectral Jester ~ This british man is a true hero to this site, i have enjoyed his company and his dedication like his weekly marketplace updates, this man puts so much time into this site its not funny...well it kinda is i guess lol. Also, Aussies are better in cricket SJ,not the poms Absolute Dog ~ He is a main reason I joined so many things in this site, his baby; the forge competition was such a big thing to me, though i didn't come first, it was such a nice thing to be in, and what he does to make us happy goes a lot of the times, unnoticed. But also seriously dint trust him, your name will be changed . Mr. Biggles ~ Our happy british member, like SJ azwell (aza, aswell....get it...lol) but yeah, a true helper to the site, he is a very proud member, also a kind and caring one who loves to help around. And good job on the cyan Biggles. Vitamin PWN ~ Late at night is when I get bored, and do you know who is on to keep me entertained, yes it's Mr. V. Because my timezone as you may know is very different to most of yours, i don't get to speak to anyone much, but he is always happy to speak to me and have a joke azwell. Thanks for staying up late Mr. V! ZB-85 ~ ZB, is i think our kindest member, no offence guys/girls, he will always welcome anyone, no matter who they are, he doesn't get into fights, he does hold grudges, he is a genuine happy, and caring person. Thanks for always welcoming me! Ms. Mystic ~ One of the kindest people I know ever, on the internet and in RL, she really cares what goes one with people and does her best to be kind. She stands up to her opinion which not many people do well. Thanks Mystic for the good times we've had. Donut ~ The funniest member I believe, an amazing forger. Though he can get angry with members, its his happiness and ability to be funny what counts. Donut is also someone you can rely on to play with, he also makes brilliant machinimas and I hope to see the newest one fully done soon! Thanks for all of my funny moments here Donut. Le Derp King ~ The first Aussie i have met on here, this person is a true helper when it comes to Halo, so you always rely on him, he sticks to his word and his dedicated with what he does. Have loves a chat with me and having fun,and thats what i value in people. Thanks again and go Essendon Bombers! Okay that pretty much is it for the main people I believe have helped me get to this incredible achievement, don't be sad if you weren't on this list, this was very selective and you still are awesome friends. Also thanks to Twam! for letting this site get regular maintenance and work on, without him, nothing would be achieved, though i don't understand anything about the computers and stuff that he goes on about. Also if I may, can i request that all of this text is changed to yellow as i cant do it on the ipad and if someone can, change the member names to the colour that is shown on this site...thanks! Ps. Im expecting a little award soon ! Your faithful Australian, Azaxx!
