Considering the flood don't need food or water or air and have a seemingly indefinite lifespan, I wonder exactly how they'd starve. If anything using the Halo Array just purges the galaxy and leaves the flood to do whatever the hell it wants until the universe ends.
Actually the array destroys organic matter. The rings can be tuned like instruments, so they can effectively destroy whatever you harmonize their frequency with. The Flood is a credible threat so long as the Precursors exist. But if the galaxy is completely purged of all life, then there's there'd be no way for Flood infection to take hold. Equally, everybody is all dead as well. There's a reason why it was the last option and why it was fought over not to be fired.

I remember trying to chase one ballon up the empire state building once. Trying so hard to catch it as it went up and up, and right as it was about to go out of jump range, I made spidey give it his last shot at catching the thing.
And I missed. So, I plummeted from the top of the empire state, too far to snag onto another building with web, and promptly plummeted to the ground and died.
At the feet of a little child who promptly screamed out in horror,
"My balloon!"
That was the last time I pursued balloon missions.

You mean scrawny?
But I don't see why you would choose to be scrawny if you could be muscular with no effort whatsoever.
Show me where to get muscular with "no effort whatsoever"
Find the autopilot switch in your head and press it. 6 months later when you hulk out on some douchebag and throw him through the ceiling to the next town you'll suddenly realize that all that time had passed you buy and you didn't even notice.

I think discretion should have been used here. Verb's asking what the flood are and you're basically dumping a few games worth of content along with the heavy novels on top of him.
It's a bit to process. And Verb's still at ground zero. He hasn't even finished the first campaign yet, yet alone if we know he'll be up for the others in the future.
Maybe ya shoulda stuck to simpler explanation for the moment. Don't spoil all the man's fun now.
Oh.
I'm not editing that glorious wall.
I never asked you to.
I was just saying that it seemed like too much of the token overload bestowed upon newbies.
Ever been introduced to a series by somebody who then completely bombarded you with a million different points all at once that lead to way, way farther into the stories and plot lines?
And you just sit there like, "How does this relate to the main character who just got their ass handed to them by a crab?"
Sigh, you have knack to make people feel bad about themselves. My bad.
Aw for fuck's sake. I didn't come in that hard did I? God dammit. That's the opposite of what I was going for.

Alright, Potato, I'm gonna do my very best to explain to you what the Flood really is. Ready? Cool.
The Flood's existence began with its end. Millions upon millions of years ago, the Precursors (the creation gods of the Halo universe) created the life on the Milky Way galaxy, they treated the galaxy as an experiment of sorts. When both humanity and the Forerunners (the two being the Precursors' greatest creations) gained space-faring and space magic capabilities, the Precursors decided that they were going to exterminate the Forerunners because they deemed them unworthy of the Mantle of Responsibility (basically a religious mantra they gave to the apex species of each galaxy). Not wanting to be wiped out, the Forerunners counter-attacked. The Precursors being so friggin flabber-gasted that one of their creations lashed out of them allowed themselves to be murdered by the Forerunners in galactic genocide. But some of the Precursors decided that that was wack yo so they manipulated their forms, turning themselves into dust.
Millions of years pass and the Forerunners come to believe the Precursors as their deities and that the Mantle was peacefully passed down to them by the long dead Precursors (they forgot their own ancient history because corruption and political tomfoolery). Over time, the dust that once was the Precursors became defective, and their long lost ships were discovered by Ancient Humans. These humans were super advanced by the way. They found out that the dust made their home pets act better and shit, so they spread this magic dust throughout the animal population of their cities. But what you know it, the dust made all of the animals turn to super-aggressive, they began eating each other, and through that began to shape into monsters. This infection spread into the human populace and thus...the Flood was born.
Well, after all that shit, the humans were able to fend off the Flood by sacrificing like half of their galactic empire to them in order to find a cure. Which, they believed they did after their supposed victory. Some more years past and the Forerunners kicked Humanity's ass in a war that lasted a millenia, and turned them into cave retards. Then boom! The Flood come out of hiding or dark space in Ass Effect terms and began to fuck the Forerunners in the butt. And how you ask? Well, when the Flood mass biomass into a single point, it becomes a Gravemind and the Gravemind coordinates the Flood into a military force that grows with each victory. And not only that, since they are indeed Precursors still, they began to manipulate ancient Precursor sites and tech, particularly the Star Roads, the Star Roads were immense invisible rings that tied solar systems and stars together. They were made of neural physics (space magic) and were indestructible. The Forerunners didn't have anything to defeat the Flood, even the Dildact was like "shit nigga." As their last option, the remaining Forerunners decided to built the Halo Array in hopes in defeating the Flood.
Blah blah, they activated the Rings killing all sentient life in the galaxy. But since Forerunners didn't want to just end everything just yet because the Mantle told them not to, they conveniently rescued all life they deemed cool and rad enough to the Ark which was outside the Milky Way and safe from the Halos' effect. All Precursor tech was destroyed because the Halos destroyed neural physics. Unluckily, the Forerunners being the short-sighted dummies they were stored some Flood samples in the Halos... not a bright idea.
tl'dr: The Flood were once asshole gods that came back as parasites to fuck shit up because lolz.

Well. The states are already in massive debt that they'll never pay off anyway. Just about every country is, really.
Credit is how the economy runs. You don't say a homeless man is richer than a college grad because the homeless man has 0 net worth while the college student is in debt.
Credit is how our economy runs. And credit is inherently fucking stupid. Along with our economy. The grad student shouldn't even be in fucking debt in the first place. Paying about give or take a quarter of your life away just to learn something. You shouldn't even be paying to learn in the first place. And yeah, honestly, I'd say a homeless man is richer than a grad. Because at least he doesn't have the banks breathing down his neck at every turn asking for the money that he's gone into the negative with.

Remind me again, why do people support this guy?
he has a brilliant viral marketing campaign
It's not hard to get votes if all you do is start promising to give people free stuff paid for by the boogeyman.
It's the age old shuffle and dance! Politicians telling people what they want to hear.

Flaarg is from bungle
also, he didn't get "fucking dunked"
wut?
Nothing because they're just video games lmao

You accomplish nothing by playing video games. There's nothing to be proud of at all.

I dunno who Flaarg is.
But they got fuckin' dunked.
Considering this is the gaming forum and a debate took place, you could technically call this pvp.
You should put "Dunking Flaarg in pvp" up on your list of gaming achievements, to those of you who respectively slam jammed him.

Off the top of my head. Anything that fed primarily off insects that wasn't an insect itself would die.
Plants would also undergo massive mass extinctions because of how much pollination work multiple species of insects do.

Te doesn't sound that ridiculous though.
Yeah it does. What, just because it's only two letters? I think that's weird in and of itself.
How do you even say it? Tee? Tay? Teh?
If you want to get super imaginative I want you to imagine how it's pronounced in Hunter forms of communication. A big rumbling colony of eels that can vibrate certain aspects of language.

human extinction movement
There's a movement of that?
Anti-natalism, right?
Anti-natalism doesn't look as menacing as "human extinction movement"
Human extinction movement sounds rather dull, frankly. It's like stating the obvious about ours lovely old species.

Every single person in the province has gone into "get fat for winter" mode.
really expensive house heating huh
It doesn't even matter if you could make your house tropical. Around this time of year, people just instinctually eat more. But yes. Really expensive house heating as well.

Which means that they cleaned me out of breakfast supplies and then started on the deserts. All the pies. The cheesecake. And now all the white girls are starting to show up for pumpkin spice lattes and pumpkin cheesecake.

Not to be boring.
But I'd probably just move a few provinces over back to my native province. You left a loophole here. You said move anywhere.
I'd pick a small completely isolated island along the coastline of British Columbia and make my comfy setup there.

None of this would happen to anybody if we all open carried AR-15's.
But what if instead of hitting you she just shot first? Walk around a corner and pa pow. You get taken out by a corner camper.

It's just not on the same level as a guy hitting a girl
It's more exciting than life-threatening
Implying that all guys are going for killing blows whenever they go to hit somebody. Also implying that a woman couldn't accidentally kill somebody out of their own stupid actions. Regardless of either sex, going up to them and hitting them is both fucking stupid, and abuse no matter how you look at it, physically or mentally. If it breaks the consent rule, it's abuse.

« on: September 14, 2015, 08:28:29 PM »
Hate how females act like they have some sort of shield around them that makes them immune when they hit guys.
You gon act like a guy, you gon get dropped like one.
EQUALITY
Girls hitting guys isn't anywhere near the same thing as the reverse though
Oh I get it, it's because they don't hit nearly as hard as men, so it isn't a big deal.
#dipshitlogic
No, because girls hitting men isn't abuse
Men hitting girls is assault, as it should be
Are you breaking out a round fishing lines here or what? Somebody comes up to you unprovoked and hits you against your consent, it's abuse. Abuse doesn't have to be physical to be considered abuse. It can be mental as well. I could be having a bright and sunny fucking day when some woman out and decks me upside the head. I might not be as hurt as I would be physically if it were some BeefMcHardAbs guy. But in either scenario I'd be upset because that wasn't on my list of shit to deal with for the day.

Right. Yeah, I wasn't aware of that when I posted it, but Korra and others made that clear later.
Which I also happened to notice a few pages back when I start backtracking. I figured I'd kept up to date with things but apparently I was a few pages behind. I chose to leave my post there knowing full well of it's repurcussions even though I already knew that you knew. #YOLO
