However, I will say there are two areas of expansion I&#8217;ve been mulling over for some time, for HFFL.<\/p>\n<p>One of the two I will mention now.<strong><span style=\"color: #99ccff;\"> A HFFL gaming group<\/span><\/strong>. I&#8217;ve been involved with gaming groups before, one for more than 3 years. Now that I&#8217;ve been having consistently playing in groups of people who are friends and\/or fans of HFFL, I&#8217;d like to put it out there for you folks. I have proposed this before, but there wasn&#8217;t much reception to it then. However, now that my nightly gaming is filled with fellow players, I want to try this again.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">Would you be interested in being part of the HFFL community in a more official way?<\/span><br \/>\nI haven&#8217;t worked out all the details yet of what being a member in my gaming group would mean, though I do have a few guidelines I know I&#8217;d want to include. So here they are (and this is just a general set of guidelines for now. Should there be some real interest, we can revisit these laster to solidify them into the HFFL gaming group &#8220;rules.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">\u2022<\/span> <span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">You must be a registered subscriber to the blog.<\/span> (Twitter and Facebook followers wanting to be a part of this must register on the blog)<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">\u2022<\/span> <span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">You will NOT need to change your gamer tag.<\/span> I do ask though that you include a line in your XBOX bio that has the link to my homepage: halofanforlife.com and maybe a sentence either before or after stating why people should visit the site. Something along the lines of &#8220;For news on all things Halo, go to halofanforlife.com.&#8221; The point being is that you are actively promoting the site by which you belong to the gaming group there of.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">\u2022<\/span> <span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">You attend at least 2 HFFL community events per month.<\/span> Barring that if you regularly show up to game with me but can&#8217;t make community nights, that&#8217;s fine. Just don&#8217;t sign up to be in the group, only to be inactive. I&#8217;ll set up some rules for inactivity later.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">\u2022<\/span> <span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">Should you wish to change your gamertag to reflect HFFL, the cost is upon yourself.<\/span> I would like that if you do change it, to have HFFL at the beginning of your tag.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">\u2022<\/span> <span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">As a member of HFFL, you will conduct yourself accordingly.<\/span> Keeping online cussing to a minimum. No trash talking to the opposite team. Only in rare cases might I allow it.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">\u2022<\/span> <span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">No T-bagging opponents.<\/span> It&#8217;s tacky and isn&#8217;t appropriate. Again though, if the other team is being a real douche, well, I may overlook this.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">\u2022<\/span> <span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">Age requirement:<\/span> Okay, I know I have members here who are under 18. So, I&#8217;ll say this, Halo is a &#8220;R&#8221; rated game. Anyone under 18 MUST behave themselves, NO cussing at all. I will NOT be held responsible for corrupting a minor. That is on the parents for allowing them to play a game rated higher than the child&#8217;s age. NO EXCEPTIONS to that rule.<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #00ff00;\">\u2022<\/span> <span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">You must not be in another gaming group currently.<\/span> If you are, then you can be a community friend of HFFL, but not a full member of the HFFL gaming group. Noone under 14, no exceptions there. If you say you are 14 and are younger, I will NOT be held responsible.<\/p>\n<p>Okay, that&#8217;s enough guidelines for now. These are of course subject to change and in likelyhood will to some degree.<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #99ccff;\">If you are interested in being part of a HFFL gaming group, either reply below or send me a message at sal@halofanforlife.com.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The other &#8220;expansion&#8221; will be discussed next month as I&#8217;m working out the details.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\"><strong>-Sal<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m not quite ready to talk about all the details, of what the title refers to.
