Go some where that can actually give you a value. This is a forum, not a sales site. Topic locked.

Welcome death, I would like to welcome you to the forums and hope you enjoy your stay.

Addendum looks pretty good from a distance, wouldn't mind playing on that one.

My map the "Rock Museum" was is an example of a multilevel map in an enclosed environment that features USNC weapons, open as well as close and tight fighting areas and a variety of shooting lines for both the novice and experienced player to enjoy. The title says it all, it is a museum dedicated to the one none structural item in forge world, the rocks! They maps currently supports Team Slayer and FFA. Weapons on the map include all UNSC offerings plus the Covenant sticky grenade. All AA's are playable, but Jet Pack, Invisibility and Sprint are recommended. Here are a few screen shots of the map. The link for it is above and here again. Hope you enjoy it!

For newer and less experienced forgers I have a few simple recommendations to help you get started with a map. 1) Set preferences to "offline" to limit distractions. 2) Turn off notifications to further limit distractions. 3) Make sure you have a good idea of what game type you are creating your map for. 4) Use the "Grid" tool for alignment, it will save you time later. 5) Initially place a respawn point on the map in case of accidental death while forging. It gets annoying flying as a monitor across Forge World. 6) Get the basic structure of the map in place before you too many individual components. The basic structure of the map is, to me, the most important feature to ensure a good design and playability. 7) As you place arbitrary features, revert to player mode to check shooting lines, jump height of components and aesthetic value, if a concern. This will hopefully lessen time in corrections later. 8 ) Save your map on occasion, especially before each new jump into different areas, and give the initial name then a 1, 2, 3, etc. for easier access to previous versions if you choose to follow a different forge design. (Example: Tilt 1, Tilt 2, Tilt 3, etc.) 9) Before you leave your forged map the first time, place a red and blue initial spawn point and remove the Forge World spawns in the cave. This way you will be sure to spawn in you map the next time you load it. Okay, these are a few beginner tips in forge that I hope will help.

Everlasting!

Since we now have a dedicated Forge Forum, I am going to lock this topic since all posters are familiar with that forum.

For both of you please understand a few things. One, we are unable to ban your accounts. This is a community forum. There is no legitimate appeal system for bans. Second, I personally have created this OP, or thread, to draw attention to cases just like yours of genuine and honest players who are being caught in a faceless and unfair automated ban system. I truly understand and feel your despair and anxiety. I have only had one of my accounts banned before and it was a deliberate attempt by me to do so to draw attention to the failure of the system and loss of Bungie's interest in ranked play. Because of the sheer positive statistics of that account, my posts in their forum while they managed the game and what I was able to accomplish before the ban got me an invite to play and audience with an actual Bungie employee. Though there was no resolution to my concerns at that time, I respected the personal contact that I finally achieved. This thread will stay pinned in any hopes to draw further attention to your concerns. Thank you for allowing me to use your stories to gain notice to this issue.

Moved your post, my OP should have been closed, sorry. Please offer the suggested items in my OP to allow members to locate your maps.

Gamertag- GlobalHawk722 Maps- Primordium Flashpoint along with any that are listed as remixes of BTB maps like paradiso, hemorrhage, and ridge-line. I thought i did a pretty good job forging these maps and any input from others would be appreciated.

Okay....since you seem to have finally found the right thread now, I will close this one and Buddha should be happy.

This forum allows you to offer links for downloading of maps for member testing. Please offer a link for download, brief description of the map, game types it supports and any specific feedback you may like to have. Remember to respond politely with criticisms and comments.

This forum allows members to arrange forge parties. Simply post what type of map you wish to forge, your experience level and what times you are available. You may want to list your gamer tag to make it easier for members to send invitations.

This is the forum for offering you to offer your tips and tricks of forging to members. You may post your how to narratives, images and videos here to help your fellow forgers learn from the experience you have acquired. Be sure to give a full description of any video you post to allow the community to fine tune their search of this forum. Here is a look at the pieces inside of forge that you have to work with. These pieces may not look like a whole lot, but when combined together they can become some of the most enjoyable killing fields, incredibly unique structures and creative environments imaginable. As time permits I will post some of the more creative designs I have made, as well as those of fellow forgers.

You can do a walk through and just take some pics in theater later. Just position yourself in some good vantage points.

First off this is the wrong form and second we have a pinned thread here for Halo 4 forge. I am closing this OP. Please post in theOfficial thread.

We currently have three awards that are available as member voted awards! These are the awards and their meaning: Teddy Bear : For being the nicest member of the forum. ( This will be a monthly vote and winner keeps it) Beer Mug : For being the funniest member of the forum. ( This will be a monthly vote and winner keeps it) Tough Mod : For being the toughest moderator of the forum. (Three month vote and gets passed on) You are not allowed to vote for your self! The voting format will be in this manner, please copy this: Nicest Member : Funniest Member : Toughest Mod : Okay....so get to voting and let's keep the thread clean of off topic posts since it makes it much harder to compile the vote. The voting begins now and will end on Tuesday January 31st at midnight. Have some fun with this guys! (Anyone found using a second account for voting will be stripped of all awards)

Lester I could not agree and empathize more with your situation. I can see the patterns in play, game types and weapon of destruction overall and can see a true novice player on that account. I have a long history in my posts of being one who speaks out against the auto ban system not having the ability to discern between a novice, or inexperienced player, and one who takes advantage of the system. This game, more than any other in the series, was created with the novice player in mind and seems to punish the very ones they attempted to bring into the Halo "fold". We were all noobs and and mostly all could not hit the broad side of a Wraith from 10 feet away with a Rocket. I will again "pin" this a thread I created on behalf of players like your daughter and parents like you and DethDale and see if or forum members are willing to offer some support. You can select the word "story" I have typed in the color cyan for the link to the story. Please post your story again there as politely and with the same information so members and others may see what the ban system is doing to newer players. Thank you for your post.

Absolute Dog......"The Blue Team", saying......"Welcome to the forums!".

Imp........I am honestly glad you shared this publicly. It shows who one of the "children" are, at the very least.

Congratulations to RANMAN10 on winning the Logo Contest. The vote was close and the entries were all good.
