I just listened to episode 339. I wanted to let you know that I think you guys do a great job on the podcast and that I enjoy listening to them. (Been listening since episode 287). It's obvious there is no problem with the popularity of the podcast; the Podtacular Halo 4 forum on the other hand is lacking since the release of Halo 4. I check it at least once/twice a day. I would be on more than that but there's hardly any new threads or comments. When there is, I always try to participate in any lore/universe threads I see. I have a couple, what I thought was interesting, halo lore/universe topics on the forums right now (Which I also think would make good Halo Lore Podtacular show topics). I think they got two replies each, then nothing. What I see getting the most attention is the threads pertaining to War Games / multiplayer. Not that it will help, but I think the forum needs separate sections for Halo 4: one for War Games, and one for the Universe. This will keep the discussions separate and in their rightful place. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy multiplayer very much. But it's the whole story of Halo that has me hooked. I've read every book multiple times, some of them seven or eight times, and have played through the campaigns on legendary multiple times as well. I feel I am very well versed in the Halo lore and that's what I like to talk about on the forums and that's why I joined your Podtacular forums. Now I wish I knew something about managing websites, or moderating forums so I could offer to help out, but I don't. The only thing I have to offer is my participation in the forums, and maybe an idea of how to add some spark to them. You get some really great guest on the podcasts. People that love to discuss Halo lore and know their stuff, Jeff Easterling, Bryan Newman, Postmortem, Slightly Live, etc. These people all have websites and forums they are affiliated with. Well, when people listen to the Podtacular podcast and hear them, they are also told in the shows how and where to go to chat with them in forums. What I'm getting at is, if you could get the people that help make your show so good to drop a line in the Podtacular forums every once in a while it might help. I think that's the problem, Podtacular doesn't have a well known name, lore expert, in the Halo community posting on its forums, it needs something that will draw the people in and make them want to discuss their thoughts and ideas. I hope this helps and sorry about any spelling or grammatical errors. I'm at work and wrote this as fast as I could.

Hey guys, I just got done listening to episode 339 and I felt sad about Doody Bound leaving, but what I wanted to say was about Forge and the things wrong with it.
I'm not complaining about these things just point out.
There was more I wanted to say about what you guys talk on, but I can only type 5 words every 45 seconds (I'm a talker not a texter) and don't have much time left right now. lol
So hope you got some info out of this, see you around.
Hey Podtac, enjoying the show. Just wanted know if you guys had any thoughts about the STILL no race and the general lack of custom game options? Maybe Dust Storm can ask bs Angel? Also, how do you guys feel about the return of Grifball? Do you think multi-team will return from Reach? Anyways, keep up the great work and keep on fraggin' trucks.
So Peter Jackson has obviously moved o from Halo. Wingnut studios has moved on. Has Microsoft, or should Microsoft abandon any hope of a film?
If not when do you think they will try to make it? Has the buzz around Halo 4 been as big of a jump as Halo 2 was?
Thanks for your time. Hit me up when ever.
