I can't even begin to fathom how people can still go on there after the myriad of terribleness that just overflows the site.
The rules over there are designed specifically to ONLY praise 343i, if you have any negative feedback or criticism they'll ban you.
Don't even get me started on the mods. Even if you make one little joke, BAN!
Like this post I made a few days ago I was banned for: https://forums.halowaypoint.com/yaf_postst204201_Created-a-Halo-5-Campaign-Menu.aspx
And there are countless other posts I was banned for because of their overly-censored corrupt forums, it's ridiculous.
How do you feel about the website's forums?

I got to two thousand posts and was about to be perma-banned. But I kept pestering and skirted around their rules till I could see that the forum was losing steam and basically other than the moderators 343 was pretty much in lawyer and Microsoft bubble and wasn't going to engage its forum community directly. Microsoft doesn't know how to not be corporate and 343 will suffer that disconnect as Halo 4 has dismissed the good will of it's community and solidified a sense in gamers that Halo is joke.
