I tend to agree with Feather on this one, oddly enough. Originality, unless there is otherwise an expected interest, is key.

I have edited most of the information, along with the name. And the roleplay will take place AFTER the Halo trilogy. Where there is an unwritten chapter, possibly?

Personally I think it's more fun to make your own universe rather than use someone else's idea.

You can spray paint a duck black, but it's still a duck. >.>

Well if you spray paint any duck black, it will still be a duck. Maybe not the same color duck, but still a duck. >.>

And probably have been killed, due the likelihood of the poison killing it. . . I meant, paint in the lunges is poisonous...

You spelled lungs wrong... Besides, if someone painted a duck, they were probably from China... It would have died from the lead paint.

You guys know what? Not trying to push the Halo RP, but it is rather hypocratic to say you don't like it when someone uses an idea from another universe when every day we do just that. Grail Wars was inspired directly by the Fate/Stay Night series. People roleplay through Warcraft. Everyone seems to want to join the Starcraft RP as well. Followed by Warhammer 40k. People have also suggested and voted for the Gundam-themed and Mechwarrior-themed RPs.

If the entire Halo-verse was given a different name and given different names for each of the characters, turning Covenant into the "Pact" and renaming Spartans the "Phlanx Soldiers," there would be no problems with anyone on this matter. Personally I think he put a lot of work into it and made something that could be potentially enjoyable just with different names and different people. That's all any of these RP's are.

It's not the fact that the RP is based on an already established universe. That's fine. It's that that Halo universe, period, is dry and dull. Even if you changed all the names, it would still remain the same collection of sci-fi action cliche's that make it what it is; namely boring, uninteresting, and generic beyond all belief.

Please don't passive-aggressively push your own opinion on the people of this forum due to a flawed view of logic, especially one focused on a sentiment that no one ever expressed. No one ever said they didn't want to join because the RP used an idea from another universe. They specifically said they weren't interested because the universe itself was dull.
