General Guidelines to Posting at HaloWars.com

The Do’s

1. Have fun.

2. Try to contribute to the community. Sitting on the sidelines is only fun for so long and the more we all pitch in the more fun we will all have. We are here so everyone can get involved.

3. Start new conversations and topics. This board is here so that information and ideas can be traded.

4. Before posting a new thread on a subject search for similar topics, read existing threads/posts, check the FAQs.

5. Use subject lines that are descriptive of your post.

6. Meet new people, and be friendly.

7. Do encourage your family to view the forums together

8. Have fun (you can’t have enough so we had to put it in twice)

Do Nots

1. Post offensive or derogatory comments, including those of a racial, religious, or sexual nature. This includes your username, signature line, and title.

2. Posting pictures or links to images which contain pornography, nudity, animal cruelty, racism, or sexism. Images of violence which are extreme will be removed and may result in a warning or worse.

3. Posting comments or links in support of illegal activities including, but not limited to, threats against the life of any living person, theft, arson, poking small animals, and piracy. If it is illegal do not post about it here.

4. Trying to obtain or posting someone else's personal contact information is prohibited. Examples are home phone numbers, home addresses, and any unpublished e-mail addresses.

5. Repeatedly attacking or insulting a person in an effort to get a negative response. You have a right to disagree, but do so in a respectful manner.

7. Posting topics or discussions with the desire to do the site or community harm. More specifically creating topics meant to disrupt the site's day to day management, disrupt member's resources, or disrupt the ability for the site to function normally.

8. Posting repeat topics with similar or slightly varying titles. The "spamming" of the community in this manner results in problems for users and management. Multiple topics on important issues or discussions are fine, this only applies to topics which waste resources for no other reason except personal enjoyment or humor.

9. Do not advertise any services or businesses. Any post that contains any sort of advertising will be removed and the person posting it may be banned as well.

10. Do not continually bump or sign posts. This is similar to spamming.

11. Do not post threads with an all capitals subject line; the thread may be edited/locked/deleted.

12. Do not title your post soliciting ES directly such as; ES PLEASE READ, ES READ ME, ATT MODS. Doing this may result in your post being ignored or edited/locked/deleted. We will get to your request as soon as we can.

13. Please refrain from posting in any language besides English. While we understand many people's desire to speak in their native tongues as opposed to English, this unfortunately has to remain an English-only board, to allow us to moderate it and to allow everyone to participate

15. Posting links to or discussing pirated copy righted material will not be tolerated at HaloWars.com. Doing so will result in a instant ban.

16. Threads highlighting/celebrating reaching a post count are considered spam and will be locked/deleted.

17. Do not use ES (or variations of it) in your display name and do not impersonate and ES or MS employee.

18. Do not troll by way of posting spoilers for games, movies, tv shows, and books.

If you participate in these activities you will have your account suspended

About Moderators

1. Site Staff and Moderators reserve the right to edit any post or site content and to remove your ability to modify them in the future.

2. Attacking moderators constantly will result in a ban.

3. Periodically the moderators will purge old threads from the forums.

4. Moderators have to follow rules too. If you have a problem with a moderator or feel you are being treated unfairly e-mail us about it. halowars@robotentertainment.com

Halo Wars Game Stats Maintenance 3/13/09

Aloysius — Fri, 13 Mar 2009 00:00:15 GMT

Hi Everyone,

Tomorrow, Friday 3/13/09, we will be performing maintenance on the Game Stats part of the HaloWars.com website. We anticpate the maintenance to take place from 8am to 8pm.

Stats will be erratic, or entirely offline during this process.

This process is to properly categorize all games played, and everyone will be able to see their proper stats for all of the games they have ever played. While the game stats part of HaloWars.com is down, all of your games played during maintenance will be recorded and will properly show up once maintenance is complete.

Thanks!

No games will be lost, all of your stats will appear once maintenance is complete.

The maintenance is expected to take several hours, and we apologize for the downtime.

Thanks. If you have any questions or concerns, please post them in General Discussion.
