We're in no way like the flood (excluding weebs/Enderwolf+batch+val'katem+nick/chally+lemön).
I get how some users on this site would fit with that tag, but what about the rest of the users? Even in groups they're diverse, and not a hivemind. Dank, anime, autism, all of these are tags that one can fall under, but that doesn't define you.

I get how from a dev's POV their customers a.k.a. Halo players in the early stage, were all mindless morons buying the games that they were making, but to actually take up on that name now that we're "free"? I get that you guys are keeping the name, but it's not fitting.

That's all there's to this thread. It's not fitting (in most cases, I mean have you seen some users on this site? I feel bad for them).

The OP was actually a lot better than I thought it'd be.

But, I dunno. It's really out of tradition and nothing else. Or at least nothing else I can think of.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
like comms said, tradition

because we're the last surviving legacy of b.old and keeping the flood name is a way to keep it alive in spirit

That's taking it a bit far I think...

The Flood is dead and gone. We're just living off its old legacy.

I joined when Destiny was coming out, so I'm not restricted to nostalgia and other things.

Edit: Still a Halo 1 fan from the time it came out, I was just too young to be "autistic" and join up a site online that talks about the game

The Flood was pretty much just a generic off-topic forum community. Sort of like the Bioware Off-topic forum. There's so much nostalgia towards The Flood though since it was shut down by Bungie 2 years ago.

The name is misleading. What was once a flood has now been turned into a stream.
