Welcome to the 343 Industries Community Forum!

 

We hope that you enjoy your time here with us. This forum is a fan based forum that is dedicated to Halo and 343 Industries. Take the time to review all of the features, forums and sub forums. New members should read the "Rules" of this site before chatting or posting. There is a 5 post minimum required before all site functions are made available to you. Please note that the "Offbeat" and Introduction and Goodbyes" forums offer no post count.The Shout Box is the most visible feature and is a good way to get quick information and chat with fellow members. We ask that you review existing OP's (Original Posts) or threads prior to creating a new one and please post in the appropriate forum per your topic.

You will find most members are helpful and offer good advice when asked. Here is some information and links to some of the areas that will help you personalize your account and locate basic information. In the top right corner of every page is your member name. Selecting your name drops a menu that will allow you to select "Settings". This is the main panel for you to customize your account with a member photo, personal information you wish to share with the community, a custom signature and various other items. Just follow the instructions offered there. You can obtain a "custom" signature by requesting one in the Signature Shop by offering the required items. When posting you may chose to use some advanced features for linking images, videos and other resources. Simply use the BBCode for quick reference. It is also available at the bottom of the "Shout Box". The members ranks and color of members names is explained here and the awards definitions are located in the top menu bar of the "Home" page.

Please be polite and respectful to fellow members in your posts and chats. There is a warning system that is used to place members on notice of their repeated bad behavior. Enough warnings results in an automatic ban from this site. The warnings are viewable only by the affected member and moderating team and used as a reminder of unwanted behavior. Do not over react to being assessed them. Direct notices from a Moderator either via the Shout Box or a PM (Private Message) are an attempt to give you the chance to act appropriately before a warning is placed. Always be respectful and polite when conversing with the moderating team as they are here to maintain the forum and help members.The Private Messages are accessed by selecting the envelope to the left of your member name at the top right of every page.
