In Response To: Is the Marathon community dying? (FlashMan1294)

: Look I'm not an old lurker (I'm 15) and I've been playing Aleph one Marathon
: games for 2 years and it looks like there are almost no people joining up
: to play this game anymore. Its sad because Marathon is truly one of the
: best fps games I have ever played. Anyway, do only old lurkers come here
: anymore and is the Marathon community on its last breath?

I don't think the Marathon community is on it's last breath. There are people still alive in the Marathon community. Most of the People have lives in the "real world", but there is one thing for sure. The Marathon community will have offical died when nobody knows about it or even remembers it inculding Bungie workers, all the Marathon stuff online is deleted and trashed, everything that looks or is Marathon related is destroyed, Bungie no longer has Marathon copyrighted, and Bungie offically makes clear that Marathon isn't there game. I suppose people would call that PRETTY harsh and unreal but it's true. Thats when Marathon dies. If every last thing of Marathon wasn't taken off from the internet SOMEBODY would find it, making it in somewhat able to make the community come back to life. If everything Marathon-related wasn't destroyed SOMEBODY would find it one way or another. If Bungie didn't offically make it clear Marathon wasn't there game SOMEBODY would ask.
Now making that clear there are stil ways to make the community STILL alive. 1)People need to make more maps. 2) People need to tell more people about this AWESOME game! 3) People need to hand this game down through the generations or else nobody will know! 4)People need to be bold and not be afriad of being laughed at because you play an old game! None of that matters! Who the hell cares of being laughed at!?! Some of us are still young and we can make a difference in this community and make it alive again back in the old days!

But really thats what I believe....
