Coldfreeze

Twitter has two options to protect your account settings, it's as simple as checking a box. I will see if I can show some images of Facebook though, since Facebook uses a system consisting of multiple grades in settings.

Great wrap up! I feel flattered that my guide became hot topic, thank you all!

First let me introduce myself, the name is Coldfreeze, Cold or Freeze to friends. In my personal life I have been active in IT for over three years and did a lot of research into security, I also do provide starting companies with information on how to protect themselves from certain hazards, like social media and or leaks in their security, but today I will be discussing social media. some of you have put their social media links on their profile, most of those social media links are unprotected, making it easy to find out where you live and or what your name is. As I was looking through forum profiles, I noticed that things like social media and private information by some of you is not that well protected. I decided to help you guys and gals with a small guide to make sure that you will not provide any personal information unwanted. Some of you have also protected their accounts, but still show their friends. Conversations with friends are a small source of information, but if you put some of those small bits information together, it isn’t that hard to get to know some basic stuff about you. If there is ANY trade of personal information needed, do this through a personal message, on Facebook and our beloved forum. Most social media sites have an option to hide certain information from outside viewers. Twitter The social media service base upon a simple concept of 140 character per message and for the sake of saying a little birdie just told me. Twitter has an option in settings called Security and privacy in this you can adjust setting such as: Protect my tweets allows you to select which user can see your tweets Discoverability Lets people find you by email. There are tons of other settings which you can adjust to make sure that your personal information is only seen by people you trust. Facebook The hugely popular social media giant and also the downfall of many politicians (I love the internet.) Facebook also has a lot of options to protect yourself The most important parts of these are: Security: multiple options to protect your account Privacy: Multiple options to protect your well…um…privacy. most important section here is the “Who can see my stuff area?” A lot thing you your self can prevent are part of your own willingness to give out information, some simple guide lines are: Never give out any personal information to someone you do not know If a site requires a Facebook account, just deny it if you don't want to do so. (depends on your personal view, this forum has it.) Moderators on these forums cannot oblige you to give any personal information, if some does, try report him immediately. If this proves handy to some people let me know and if you want more information about anything else IT security related, PM and I’ll see if I can help. Stay safe! Coldfreeze

I am a serious gamer, I play Halo for fun and competitive. The games has been adjusted since launch to balance out any unbalanced loadouts, If I were you I'd give it a try, you might just like it.

congratulations are in order for both. But leave the Ice puns to me. I may be not the cooliest around, but I am certainly the coldest and the freeziest. Sayonara!

The way I see it, the spartan-IV's are less effective, they have the instincts of their marine career. Spartans are known to know no fear and sadly marines do know fear. The spartan-III project was adjusted to the covenant invasion and were suicide squads, almost all of noble team was a spartan-III with the exception for Jorge. There are only 2 spartans with the classification of extremely lethal one of them is Noble six the other is John-117.Noble six is a spartan-III Like I said before I would prefer spartan-III to because of the age I have myself, but reading back that they are indeed cheap "products" I have changed my opinion.

The gravemind is dead, the ark on which it precided was destroyed by the replacement of the Halo destroyed in Halo CE, these rings destroy all organic matter, including flood. The ring was fired inward towards the ark, thus destroying all organic matter on the the ark itself, this als dampend the blast and probably since the halo was still being build the blast wasn't nearly as strong, one of the reasons John-117 probably survived the blast. However the flood itself has not been eradicated, since a lot of flood were kept on the rings for research possibility's. The UNSC started a program to dismantle all of the rings and destroy flood if found. Spartan-IV's are trained in flood eradication, which can be seen in Spartan Assault. I bid ya good day

I loved the story, the Chief against all odds trying to save Cortana, but then the part where the terminal vaporized. just before that part I felt like, Cortana can be saved and then, nothing, It broke my spirit (I usually get really emotionally involved in the Halo game) It was a moment were I went: No, no, no, this can't be, WHY no. My disbelief turned into anger and I went trough that last part like a thunder storm. I loved it, I cried a little and somewhere I still have some small hope that Cortana still lives (I think the librarian could have copied here, the reason I think the chief is on a forerunner planet in the E3 trailer.) Never make a girl a promise you can't keep and knowing chief, he won't.

I'll pick 6. I am in.

Most of the spartan-III's died defending Reach, around 10 % was stationed on other locations. The spartan-II are, and correct me if I'm wrong, mostly MIA. they were the first to encounter any covenant and most didn't have acces to tech such as shields.

spartan-III's have all the augmentations as well, but there was lower fatallity rate.

Good day to all my fellow forum members, I have been playing Halo since CE. Since Halo 3 introduced customization to the armors, the game got a lot more influence on personal level, the spartan you create isn't some mindless soldier like in games such as Call of duty or Battlefield, it is your spartan, your armor and a personal extention to how you want to look like as a spartan in the Halo universe. Since Halo 4 introduced spartan-IV's I felt like my character in Halo wasn't a Spartan but a an enhanced soldier, I do not identify with spartan-IV's but more with the spartan-II's So my question is, what spartan do you identify with, is it the elite soldiers of the spartan-II project, the more versatile spartan-III soldiers or the enhanced marines and ODST known as the spartan-IV's.? Please select one of the answers and explain why you identify with that spartan. I noticed that I didn't explain why I chose for spartan-II's I am a fairly young guy, 22 years old, part of the reason I choose spartan-IIIs. I changed my opinion thanks to Zaguroth. I mistakenly chose the spartan-III's as the ultimate super soldier, I got my lore mixed up.

To be honest this has been a thing for a long time, I do not think they will ever remove it. Now the things that bother me are the boltshot, that thing is rage inducing. And well the despawn time is annoying, but I have seen enough people get killed by wreckage and I could sometimes easily recover my power weapon (think the time depends on how many objects are actually lying around.) The graphics are actually quite good for a console over 7 years old and 343i puts all the power of the 360 to use.

I usually stick to the classics, befor the champions bundle it was the mark VI, now it's the mark V. I wear the mark V since Halo 3 and it was a giant letdown it wasn't in Halo 4 since the beginning, but luckily 343 came through.

Halo 4 brought a lot of change that in my opinion was needed. The loadouts work fine, besides the boltshot being a load out weapon. I love the whole BR vs AR vs DMR. It gives me the oppurtunity to compete with my prefferences against someone elses prefferences. The biggest let down for me is the music, I just mis the Mjolnir theme. MP has been greatly improved since the launch of the game, evening out the loadout weapons. The other thing that is bothering me is the weakness of the vehicles, the mongoose is almost indestructible, while a warthog is an easy kill. Flying a Banshee is patience and attacking from a distance, not the terror bringing angel of doom it used to be. the game is also missing an UNSC based flying vehicle. The game is fresh Halo with some (to me) minor changes, it keeps the base game, but changed the art style, music and some of the weapons. (I mis the old needler sound) but I love the game. I think Reach was the end of what Bungie could do with Halo and luckily 343i is doing the best they can.

I competed in the event, I lost, p34nut is still not letting it go. he was like HEY WATCH OUT they are over there, I spawn, I died and its my fault. I am looking forward to the rematch!

The whole reason that ODST existed was the fact that creating an ODST was cheaper than creating a spartan. they are comparible with the first spartan project, which sergeant Johnson was part of, mainly light augmentations. Spartan-IV's are cheaper to train, to create and due to the fact that augmenting has been improved, a lot less letal. I dsilike the spartan-IV's for one reason, they are glorified ODST, they have years of combat training as a marine or ODST and are then turned into a spartan. Their reflexes, insticts and combat experience are all build upon their experience as marines or ODST. There is one cutscene in spartan ops, which showed this quite obvious, They are taking cover, asking for cover fire and when one of them runs and jump of the edge to hijack a banshee they call him a fool. Us playing Halo since the beginning have more experience as a spartan-II and III than a Spartan-IV and I will never feel like a spartan-IV in any Halo game. luckily the remaining spartan-II's have been changed to spartan-IV's unoffically. Officially, they are all MIA.
