I was just kidding GTAF. A favicon is the little icon that shows up to the left of a url, it's currently a blue house.

I was wondering why I couldn't log in. I forgot my password(I have the one that auto logs in).Is there any way to make sub-forums appear, because I prefer it that way.

>_> I want that snitch emblem I was supposed to get for being quick on the report button. Best fun I had on Halomods since I joined...

Hahaha... I believe that guy used 3 different accounts.

It's great to see that the new forum combines all the best of users and files, emblems and avatars, the bigger sig sizes from the files forum, plus you're now running a newer version of phpBB, which is good, doesn't appear to be the newest version though (from the copyright)

And I would like a graphics emblem...but it's probably not going to happen. It's for the gods to decide.

How about we have non contradicting rules? Myself, other people and people from users have already had their sigs/avatar rules because it says in the MAIN RULES AREA, that animated sigs and avatars are allowed, yet huddled away in this section, its dissallowed...

If this has been discussed and settled in this thread previously, well why should I have to read this thread in order to find out when the rules section should say whats what?

We're working on the new forum rules now, as well as working out several kinks. We apologize that the rules contradict because of the rules from both forums being placed here in the merger.

It's not going to be long before we have some clear cut rules, don't worry.

I think this board was 'opened' way too early.

There was an announcement that all topics after a certain date would not be merged. Both databases for files and users were backed up, then merged together. The process took a couple of days. The best thing you can do is re-post. The posts you had after the cut off date are not comming back.

what was the cut-off date again?

I much prefer merge

But why do you say 'X-Box' - thats my only little complaint, 'Xbox' looks much better

Geo · Post by **Geo** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 5:18 am

That's because Xbox is the correct name, X-box is not.

ZeroKillerMods · Post by **ZeroKillerMods** » Sun Feb 04, 2007 5:24 am

The people asking for emblems above are not doing anything good for themselves. We know that emblems were lost with the merge, but that is the least of our problems as of now. If you really deserved the emblems you had, you'll keep doing the right things to earn them. Then our staff will notice and give you the emblem again.

So we are purposefully not using the correct names?

And what are the chances that someone is going to come and spam the board with Britney Spears porn again? haha, I'll do my best to report the internet's dips***s

I actually like the use of subforums, but a more straight forward look would be nice.

Also, there are these two topics stuck at the top of the Halo CE Downloads sub forums that link to completely unlrelated posts. Qu
