: so lovely. I come back here every so often to see if it's still going. I
: posted on here years and years ago very seldomly - I don't even know what
: e-mail I used then - but HBO is really to me an image of a healthier time
: on the internet and in Halo. As I read Reddit posts and Halo YouTube

: internet engagement, but in maturity over these issues. Both developers
: and consumers are at each others throats, it feels like; gone in many ways
: are the days of fun, sharing stupid videos of a completed game.

: I guess what I'm trying to say is y'all are an encouragement. Games were once
: about who could make the most fun game, and HBO gives me hope that it's
: not a completely lost ideal.

I still tool around here every now and then. I'm happy to see folks are still here talking about Halo. I'll be forever thankful to Louis Wu and the rest of the HBO gang who made this site what it is.
