Enough, folks.
Every other thread seems to be a theory about the G-man, or dissolve into a discussion about the G-man. Now, I realize everyone's excited about the new game, and we have some new forumites joining us, people new to the Half-Life series (welcome to you folks), and everyone's a-buzz about the ever-mysterious and enigmatic G-man. This is not a new occurrence--it happens every time the game is released. But this week in particular has been rather...vexing.
I've read some threads about the G-man lately, theories about him: who he is, who he's working for, why he does what he does, so on. These theories are getting more inane by the day. I'm not going to point fingers--mainly because I don't have enough to point at all of you--but some of you have gone off the bloody deep end.
I'm going to say this once and only once, so pay attention, Mr. Freeman: I will have no more crazy-ass theories about the G-man. There are threads in this section and in Singleplayer Mythology that detail everything we currently know about the G-man. Read those. If you think you have a theory, use the search button located at the top of the page and make sure nobody's put forth that theory before. Finally, before you click "Post New Thread," take a good, long look at your theory and ask yourself: "Is this an actual, viable theory or is it a load of crap that I'm posting because I'm just so goddamned excited about Episode Two?"
There are plenty of threads where you're welcome to discuss the G-man. Your theory likely does not need a new thread, and probably doesn't warrant it anyway.
This is your only warning. I'm a man of great patience, but my patience has been tried. I am now declaring an act of martial law against G-man theory threads. Please do not go against this decree, or I will send my personal army against you. You do not want to cross my personal army. These gentlemen are horrors beyond anything that exists on this board, and they are completely loyal to me.
And they hate G-man threads.
