And knowing nothing of Halo, your rant looses some of it's "oomph" with the uneducated like myself.
On the upside, it was nice of Korn to let the white guy in that music video borrow the set from their Freak on a Leash music video at the end of his. Very sporting of them. <img src='/images/emoticons/smiley1.png'>

....That really does look like a dog in a mecha suit. xD;;
Caption: Kroze discovered that a Grunt is an ineffective pinata at his birthday party, when said creature hit him with a head shot after being smacked with a stick.

I'm sorry if we are trying to keep you all entertained while LK is away and we thought that pic would be a nice change after having 14 weeks of Yu-Gi-Oh pic captions that most people just kept taking the captions from the actual series and not being original and/or funny with...
And the picture IS related to Yu-Gi-Oh and this site when you trace it back as stated in the news post. You don't have to read it if you think the news posts are crappy...

Well SOOOOOOOOOORY for boring you. With everything involved in making that post it took me damned near 3-4 hours to make. I had to read through 12 pages of captions, judge them, doubt what I judged, re read alot of them, talk with my girlfriend, actually write the post, edit it, go back and edit it some more, deal with some friend drama, and then edit the post even further. I spent my whole Friday night on this post and I dare you to make a better news post before criticizing them next time.

But don't you think just having only the caption contests over and over again for a full month and a half be a BIT boring for everyone and no real news?
Also, you have gotten information about The Abridged Series going to a convention so I wouldn't say it has been totally off topic as well as Ben's last news posts stating the new members to the moderator team. And we try our hardest to keep everything entertaining for everyone while making this place a fun site to be on.

Dare? I don't suppose that's a challenge?
I apologize for coming off harsher than I really had the right to be, but that's just my opinion. I'm by no means trying to demean the time you've put into writing this, I just had a difficult time actually getting through it. Still, I'm not on the Writing Staff or anything with a really awesome title, so, I'm Sorry. I have No right to criticize the work of the admins.

Meh, There's been news regarding the convention and shirts, and what not. So I wouldn't say it's been entirely the Caption Contest. Yeah, I see where you're coming from though.
I really am over reacting about this. I haven't had a problem with the past few News Updates, I just get irritated by the random bursts of personal stuff added to the News. Something about the extra three paragraphs about Halo 4 added in just made me angry. Maybe because I can't go a day without people dragging Halo 3 into my discussions anymore... So, once again, Sorry for being a Hypocrite. (And for the Double Post)

Well keep in mind its all about different peoples tastes and with several people writing news posts you are bound to get several different ways of doing them.
Also keep in mind that many webcomics also do news posts about relevant things in their lives that are happening, Dix just completely sucks at Halo and he had the need to tell the world that he does... Plus, it gives us all the opportunity to make fun of him for sucking so much!

Considerng the only "captions" that ever win are ones that photoshop the picture into a completely different picture, defeating the point of having a caption contest on the origninal picture, I decided to use my own mass photoshop skills. If you can't beat em, join em, eh?
 Yeah, I know, my photoshop skills are leet.

I would just like to mention that the Sonic caption almost DID win and that was not photoshopped at all....
Came very close and the only reason it didn't win is because it was just taking my own words in that news post and put on the pic I chose for the contest that week... although it did make me lol the hardest and was clever as hell.

 Sorry Dix, i dont mean it. You're cool, evn though i dont know a thing about Halo 3. I don't actaully mind the guys mixing things up a little with the caption contest, come on ppl, change is EXCITING. I just wanted to clear that up coz my entries seem to (well, do) mock the pic a bit but that's what i came up with.

First off, my tiger beats the hell outta the one below me. Your LittleKittie can't hope to stand against Hobbes! Secondly, I'm gonna enter with the first thing off of the top of my head for my caption... guess what. I'm the same as always people. DEAL WITH IT!

Hmm..... Kudos for helping while LK is away... but i don't think i'm going to be entering any non-yugioh caption contests on a yugioh based website anytime soon..... Even if you guys think it's boring, the majority of the fans didn't... & that's the whole reason for the contests, right? It's something for us to participate in, and have fun along the way. I'm not trying to say you guys haven't done a good job.... but I think it'd be a lot easier keeping the site popular if you stayed on subject...

What the hell is everyone going on about? One little Caption Contest that doesn't exactly involve Yugioh? So what, it won't kill you. It's okay if you prefer not to participate in them (though if you're doing that only as a protest of a sort it's pretty childish), but seriously, the whining is starting to get on MY nerves as well.
Besides even though I don't know pretty much anything about Halo, I had some fun reading Dix's rant about it (while understanding nothing about the subject itself).

We just figure we try something a bit different this week, next week you'll have your good ol Yu-Gi-Oh caption contest back.
I really didn't think there would be that much of an uproar over something like this... I do think its unfair to classify this place as a "Yugioh based website" since I personally know we have a lot of Abridged Series fans on here who have never seen the actual show before. Thats a bit like calling Red Vs. Blue a "Halo based website" or Joss Whedon's website a "Vampire based site". This series caters to the entire internet crowd (Especially with the many many other pop-culture refrences LK has thrown in the videos) and with Halo 3 still being so big, we figured that it would be relevant overall. It was worth a shot to try something new and if it doesn't go well this week then oh well... Live and learn.
