nicely said GHL. i must say, you guys are doin a great job on this map. i, for one, do not care how long it takes. i say take your time, and when it gets done, it gets done. whoever whines about how long it is goin to take is a total and complete NEWBIE.

You know what would be best, it would be really easy to find sombody in this whole entire freaking community that you can trust and say heres the map everytime its updated you can give him the map maybe even do a little bit of input into the game so the project goes faster. But the main purpose would be to have him just as a person whom gives the updates to the community, like frankie in bungie. His job is simple collect all info on the team sit in on all meetings and important events and then write up a good paragraph of updates and report back to the team with that info for cutting of secret things. If you dont have the effort to find one person out there to do that, then that means you most likely dont care about the communitys lack of being filled in.

This applies to MY opinion only well if this community wasnt such a hole of untrustable noobs and flamers, maybe we would, but at this moment in time, i wouldnt trust 98% of the active members with ANYTHING.
look at what happened with all those leaked maps. -_-

Yeah guys, (not to suck up) but leave the zanzibar team the hell alone. It's finished when it's finished. Be GLAD that they actually take time out of their lives to do this.

hey dominitrite lets see some of your work.

Dominitrite · Post by **Dominitrite** » Thu Aug 12, 2004 6:14 pm

Firstly i was talking about the halo modding community in general not this website. Gearbox forums.....Countless amount of trustworthy people im sure would be glad to take the job. Yes i understand this is a hard thing to do, not getting paid, its a fun hobby, which is why i reccomended a person for that area only (try reading posts first then running your mouth you will get much better feedback)

. You would like to see some of my work? My work will be coming in numerous amounts as soon as my friend finishes up our website and make sure the website is a succsess as well. Don't pull that i dont know how hard it is to make a map with a bunch of custom models and tags and what not, ive attempted it and i know its a pain in the ass.

Well you wouldn't like us to keep pestering you about if it's up yet or not, now would you. So please be quiet and wait. Better yet, get a life and let it come to you. Jeez.

...um dude...its called flattering, not flattery...

GHL · Post by **GHL** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 2:43 pm

actually i think it IS flattery:P

kamakaze · Post by **kamakaze** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 2:44 pm

Uh, Vinx, it is called flattery. Though if it was used in different context it would be flattering. But with the context it is in it is flattery. And I guess I would have to agree that that is the reason I want this update. I have been following this project since the beginning and indeed think that it is an awesome idea and that this team will do an awesome job of it. Anyways, it is now Friday 5:48 PM CST and there is still no update 9, are there going to be no more updates, because if there aren't, please just tell us. Oh, and GHL, about the whole Frankie for the Zanzibar project thing. You seem to be on these forums a lot and post more than anyone. You could be that Frankie. You do the updates instead of Stefander and let Stefander concentrate on Project Zanzibar.

then there wouldnt be any textures for the builds:P
i guess i could do the update, ok if stefander doesnt post one on sunday, mine will be here monday GMT time.
i am leaving halo soon after zanzibar:/ the community here seems to get more and more sucky with the flaming

kamakaze · Post by **kamakaze** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 2:57 pm

Well, I am glad about the update thing. Though I am sorry you are leaving. I hate the fact that the only time I have ever flamed was in this thread and I apologize for that. And I do agree that the flaming here has gotten really bad and I think the moderators should crack down on it a bit more. Though when you say you are leaving Halo, does that mean you are leaving the game entirely, or just Halomods?

[FnI] Xkal · Post by **[FnI] Xkal** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 2:59 pm

don't leave halo just.....leave these forums. i CANNOT wait for zanzibar......*giggles like school girl*

Nightmare08 · Post by **Nightmare08** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 4:23 pm

Vinx · Post by **Vinx** » Fri Aug 13, 2004 6:25 pm

GHL · Post by **GHL** » Sat Aug 14, 2004 2:04 am
