That is as simple as getting off your high throan, and leaving the damn chat. What's this? Oh my! You can speak to everyone! (Provided that you aren't on seperate teams, in which case I am going to make a thread and rant about how I hate Halo 3's custom games.)

I do believe you translated this passage incorrectly. Your reaction to what you thought it meant was correct, but it isn't that hard to understand. At least to me it isn't.

What it probably means is that Dow is party leader of a twelve-person party. Eight of the people are in a party together. They aren't going to leave, considering that they all know each other and really don't care about Dow or the other three people. Dow is either stuck playing a game in which two thirds of the players don't understand or boots them so that they may now play the game correctly, but there's only four people in the party and the game doesn't have enough players to really be fun.

As for what I feel about the "party problem," I've never really encountered problems in Halo as bad as Dow has, but that may just be because I only play Customs and only in a relatively small group of friends and their friends. I do agree with you that they do more good than harm, especially when I'm playing single-player games, matchmaking in other games, or even in Halo, am forging alone.
