I stop by HBO once a day hoping to find new info on halo 2 and found this:

Bad XBA, Good TXB
Interview news: in case you missed it, the call for interview questions (that we posted in good faith yesterday) was a load of hogwash; they'd never gotten any permission from anyone at Bungie to do anything LIKE what they said they were planning. I guess the ploy worked, however, insofar as they were probably looking for site hits, and that's just what they got. (The forum thread we linked to no longer exists.) On the REAL interview front, however, TeamXbox has put up a request for questions for Frank O'Connor, formerly of Official Xbox Magazine (with ties to TXB), now with Bungie... and this one is legit. Go ahead, fill out the form on that page with your question. These will really GET to Frank. (Louis Wu 22:39:31

Now I realize Im new here, but these are very cool forums and I honestly believe that it was a misunderstanding on the mods part here at XBA.
That being said, I think its pretty crappy for the author at HBO to make these comments.
Thats the exact reason Ive never posted there. They're completely high on themselves because they have ties directly to Bungie.
They jump all over everyone who asks an innocent question about Halo in their forums.
Like Im sorry I dont know every facet about Halo and Im sorry im not a complete Bungie fanboy. :rolleyes:
Jeez they really need to get off there high horses.
Best to be the bigger man and ignore it but I just wanted to make everyone aware.
