hey guys, there is a cause on xbox live and I need the whole community of forge hub for this. If you are a director for machinima you also need to listen. Have you ever noticed a machinima that has lowering a gun look so clean or very professional. I t was easy to do that in Halo 2 but in halo 3 it was hard. You were limited to Local and System Link play and always sucks cause you need players to do the voices. So some productions quit or make it had for them to produce them. And for that reason, the whole machinima has a way to stand up to get guns lowered down. There is a group that is dedicated to support this cause. The link will be below after you read this. This is not a petition so can't be shut down. But on the first anniversary of halo which is September 25,2008, we will Not Play Halo 3 for 24 hours. You heard me ,No Halo 3 for 24 hours. If Bungie notices this, they will feel our pain and try to fix it. But we really need your help to make this happen.

Well there are many ways that you can help so here is a nice list of ideas! 1. Send a message to all of your friends on Xbox live and let them know about us 2. Post the youtube video for this group here to your myspace, facebook, or any personal websites your have 3. look for topics already created in the Halo 3 community forums about gun lowering and let the people there know about us 4. Be active in the forums! The more activity there is in this group the more attention we gather 5. If you are a machinimator make a video and let us know so that we can alert people here to put share it! 6. Eat pie (it cant hurt can it? and the cake is a lie anyways) Now there are a few things that we want you to be aware of that you SHOULD NOT DO! 1. do not post tons of topics in the main forums about this group we do not want to make the ninjas mad 2. do not spam people about our groups one message ever week or so is fine anymore is just annoying 3. We are not radical we do not hate Bungie in anyway shape or form Are you guys going for recon? NO if we get recon because of this then we do but that is not the main purpose of this group and ANYONE accusing us of that will be blacklisted NO EXCEPTIONS! why should we care about you? hmmmm...... well if you have EVER watched any major piece of machinima you probably have heard the person at least once in their video mention that you should be able to lower your weapon in halo 3 and plus it helps the community as a whole. Either that or the cake will surely be a lie WTF IS THIS? This group is a Bungie group created for one purpose and one purpose alone we wish to enable the lowering of weapons in halo 3 on xbox live. Join this group and give hope to our cause as we will boycott the game on 9/25/08 And Remember to Boycott Halo 3 on 9/25/08!!! Thank you (this is not a spam)
