Hi all, I'm very new. Like today new. Honestly i'm just following the bot's advice and starting a post. Iv'e always been into Halo lore. Good stuff, great stuff actually. Read all the books, at least the ones that are existing relevant to my knowledge and am looking forward to "Broken Circle". Lemme know what you like about Halo lore, maybe to neat stuff like how "contact Harvest" used Nordic mythology in the naming of many of it's context. I probably sound like a total noob..

Hi guys and girls, ladies and sirs, dinosaurs and ponies, and all manner of FORGERS. I'm looking at breaking in to the Forge scene, having never, ever actually pressed that option, and I was wondering; What do you wish you had've done first? What do you wish you had've known sooner? What tools/templates have worked best for you, and what should I avoid or not bother with? What did you imagine YOUR first map/game type to look like, and how did that turn out for you? Any other tips or tricks that you can compress and digest would be greatly appreciated!

I'm new to this forum, and I'm happy to see you are all so accepting! I met a few of you earlier, and my first post was rude.. So if I offended anybody, I'm really sorry. I'm used to 4chan, and if you're not a **** on 4chan then you get singled out. If any of you wanna hit me up on xbox, feel free. I don't play a lot of Halo, but I get on every once and a while. I prefer custom games, too, so if you get bored and wanna act retarded, send me an invite.

So pretty much, these are from the Urban dictionary, if you know someone who shows one or more of these symptoms, than they are a noob. 1. A noob is a person who really sucks at a game but refuses to learn/listen to people who are skilled. Many of them may have been playing the game for a while, but still suck at it. They usually have no hope. 2. Noobs generally get extremely upset over being beaten and can not admit that they are bad at the game. Often they will accuse the skilled people of hacking. 3. This word is an insult in general so people often wrongly use it and just call somebody that they do not like a noob, regardless of skill. 4. This term is often confused with the term "newb," and people who confuse these terms are usually either noobs themselves, or somebody who is good but is just mean (and has a lot of pride for being skilled). P.S. This is not restricted to Halo

On the nature of newb and noob. A rant by The Director Little bored, so thought I'd have a little bit of a rant. Today I played a game of snipers on Halo Reach, and a player with a lower rank called a player who was a forerunner (I think, don't particularly recall) a noob. The reason he did this was because said player was running around getting "pwnd" and teabagging when he got kills, as a noob does. What caught my immediate attention was that he actually specified the spelling of the word "noob". This led to a discussion on the difference in the usage of the slang, "newb" and "noob". A good chunk of players think that both words are the same, and one is intentionally misspelled to make it more "l337". However, the l337 for newb is either n3vv8 or n0ob (or n0ob or n00b). Not "noob". Since these words are slang, their definitions are "open market" which means that they have rather vague definitions to begin with, and there is not strict criteria for defining them. What a lot of players (a decent amount, at any rate) think is that both words have separate meanings. Newb: A slang term used to describe one that is new to something. Noob: A person that is not skilled or is bad at something. By these definitions, the words noob and newb become different, and can be used for a more accurate description. For instance, "Dude, this guy has been playing for 300 hours but has a .02 k/d. He's such a noob." and "You have to forgive my friend, he's never played Halo before so he's a newb". What would be incorrect by this standard, is calling an experienced person/player a "newb". However, it would still be correct to call a new person/player a "noob". Now you can have fun with them, by linking them up for even "sicker burns", such as "you are the noobest noob newb to ever play this game!" Thoughts, opinions?

Hello 343i Forum members! I have been a Halo player since 2007 when my cousins got Halo 3 on Christmas. Yes, I am going to admit that I am 11 years old. But I am not those kids on the Internet who troll sites to just get attention. As you already may see here, I do what most kids on the Internet do not do. Use grammar. I am hoping to be a very active member here on the forums and get a good reputation for myself. Anyway, (Back to the story) after seeing my cousins playing the Halo 3 campaign, I was hooked. For some reason though, I never bought it until 2008. (I still question myself) In 2008, is when I got Xbox LIVE for my birthday. (MiStER CHIEF 14 is my gamertag) I got Xbox LIVE to specifically play the Halo 3 multiplayer. Over the years, I have gotten more mature and better at Halo. Even after playing and having all the Halo games that were made, I am honored to be a Halo fan.
