Support NeoGAF

[Prime crotch]

Ouch Tek went down

 

[Captain Jebus]

So... how 'bout that Halo...?

 

[speedpop]

Fuck this is GAF drama right here. Tre deletes the official Halo thread that was going to the biggest thing in the history of the forum.

 

[InfectedZero]

Dude that sucks. Thats a pure buzz kill. That thread was epic . And modus put so much effort into the OP.

 

[DenogginizerOS]

If this was truly an act of sabotage on Sporsk and Tre's part they should be banned from GAF. Totally irresponsible.

First post, someone with some time can put it back together

McBacon FTW

Honestly though, this shouldn't kill our mood guys.

Halo 3 comes out in less than 15 hours now, and we'll be back here tomorrow talking about our campaign and multiplayer adventures and all the good times we are having, and soon we'll have our mega thread thriving again.

BELIEVE

 

[Pug]

Hey it wouldn't GAF if many of the posts were slightly melodramtic, would it? Now what the hell is going on.

 

[urk]

PREORDER CANCELED

 

[Cuckooo]

and so it begins again, can't believe it though.

 

[speedpop]

I agree. What the fuck is going on? Is sp0rsk in on it as well then?

 

[BigFwoosh]

Is anyone planning on getting the game at Wal-Mart tonight? When do you think would be a good time to head up there to snag a CE? They say there's going to be multiple checkout lines, "plenty of copies," but I just wonder about all the crazies that are going to come out of the woodwork and camp out all day or whatever.

 

[Haunted]

Now PC games can safely be trolled again.

Fuck this is GAF drama right here. Tre deletes the official Halo thread that was going to the biggest thing in the history of the forum.

Feels like the OT in here.

 

[MCD]

I thought it was sp0rsk fault.

Teknopathetic...

 

[Visualante]

Much like XBOX Live tomorrow.

 

[IJoel]

PREORDER CANCELED

:lol

 

[Deleted member 21120]

I just tried to restore and instead of restoring the thread it brought up the "user bannings" page Tré...

What have you done? :/

srsly? Uh...

 

[DenogginizerOS]

I agree. What the fuck is going on? Is sp0rsk in on it as well then?

This is kinda my fault, I apologize.

It appears so.

 

[sprsk]

I agree. What the fuck is going on? Is sp0rsk in on it as well then?

I was kind of an accomplice. I didn't think he'd go as far as to hard delete the thread though.

 

[speedpop]

Holy shit.

 

[herod]

let's hit the vBulletin guys with a class action

 

[Dai Kaiju]

The mods won't go with in 3 feet of a Halo thread, but they sure don't have any trouble fucking one up. I really hope you enjoyed the 5 minutes of giggles you got from erasing hours of Gahleon's hard work.

 

[SpudBud]

Wow...

 

[Cubsfan23]

Sony-Age indeed


Fuck this place. Later.

 

[DenogginizerOS]

I was kind of an accomplice. I didn't think he'd go as far as to hard delete the thread though.

So, what was the goal then? What were you going far to do?

 

[Deleted member 21120]

I really hope you enjoyed the 5 minutes of giggles you got from erasing hours of Gahleon's hard work.

QFT. The morning of launch?

 

[Cuckooo]

That thread was my life

 

[Diablohead]

The original thread for deleted? oh man.

I guess we will never beat the smash bros. thread anymore

 

[Tieno]

I was kind of an accomplice. I didn't think he'd go as far as to hard delete the thread though.

So it's intentional?
Evilore backsup the forum, so it can easily be reverted.

 

[squicken]

What's the problem? We have google archives. Tek is staff. He can rebuild Ghaleon's OP no problem. Or we can all just wait until it magically appears in a few hours.

BTW,

Spoiler

I think the OP just spoiled part of Halo 3 for me. If it is what I think it is, you truly are a dick, Tek.

 

[ToyMachine228]

This blows! Ghaleon and m0dus worked really hard on that art and the OP of this thread should be edited to rebuild that "Official Halo 3 Thread" feel.

Just watched that new Blotkamp short. That was by far the best one. The Brutes looked good, there were some good action moments, that was by far the best short so far. Good day for it too. At this time tomorrow I'll be FINISHING THE FIGHT!

 

[sableholic]

... You have to have daily sql backups.

It's all saved in text format. It can be restored. Stop freaking out, people. It's just the Internet.

or

OMG WTF BBQ

 

[negitoro7]

Um, how long has he been a mod for? This "Tre" character you speak of.

 

[StriKeVillain]

Wow, talk about a fuckup.

 

[syllogism]

The original thread had no worthwhile content, think of this an opportunity to start anew. Halo deserves better.

 

[giga]

Wait...I just woke from my LAST SLEEP and find this? What happened?

 

[speedpop]

Um, how long has he been a mod for? This "Tre" character you speak of.

Only a month or so.. but he's been around for ages.

 

[sprsk]

... You have to have daily sql backups.

We used to, but the forum started fucking up after a while so we stopped doing them way before even E3.

 

[Calcaneus]

Well, that sucks. It was such an awesome thread. Glad we still have the google archive. Now someone can go to work on fixing this.

Anyways, on the topic of Halo (durr), I heard the needler has returned to glory. How true is this?

 

[FrankT]

It's all fun and games until someones gets hurt. Changing the thread title a half a dozen times should not equal thread deletion. Better be some sick joke.

 

[bj00rn]

What the frecking fruck...

Well, there's a couple of things that make me believe this is a prank. First off, who the hell doesn't backup their databases... Second, it makes no sense starting off a new thread righ off the bat with some sour odd negativity (Referring to the "reviews" in the first post), I mean, what the fuck.

Oh well...

 

[pj]

Wow, i thought this was a joke topic, the internet just got much realer.......

or did it

 

[Falagard]

Yeah, GAF admins, let's get the original thread back somehow. There were dozens of great posts by Stinkles and Luke, not to mention all the work Ghaleon, Modus, Tieno and the rest put into that thread.

 

[Haunted]

The original thread had no worthwhile content, think of this an opportunity to start anew. Halo deserves better.

The OP was pretty good.

 

[Brandon F]

Oh boy...Tom's writeup as a sticky on NeoGAF, somehow I don't think this was the intended audience for the piece.

Or maybe it was...

 

[UnholySpectacle]

ButtonBasher, Ghaleon, Spudbud, and DoctorWho on suicide watch?:lol

 

[McBradders]

This prank is either absoloute genius, planned and executed to perfection or...

...yah :lol

 

[Chinner]

That thread was my life

You are my life : D

 

[negitoro7]

Only a month or so.. but he's been around for ages.

Yeah I just looked up his post history and see that he's been around for a while. Funny the first post I've ever seen of his was this thread's opening post... I would've thought he's a troll if not for his (former) red username.

He got a little too excited with his newfound mod status huh?

 

[MCD]

Someone wake up Ghaleon and tell him it's time to start anew.
