We eventually gained knowledge that ForgeHub's support of Eldewrito content, and Halo Online by extension, represented a legal conflict of interest. Our primary goal was to preserve our new growing community and to continue to provide a seasoned platform for those creators to share, interact and play. Our team worked feverishly to research and evaluate all our options. What changed? When Microsoft first requested the Eldewrito team halt development and began removing download links for Halo Online, we feared that content created within the mod might come under fire too. Many people have been asking a similar question. We stuck it out through the first wave on DCMA's that hit streaming outlets, removing our nearly three hour livestream of Forge and took the proper steps to ensure content posted on the site was not at immediate risk as well. Like stated before, we want to ensure we provide a safe, engaging and diverse platform that operates well within the laws set out. From the first whispers of conflict, we have closely monitored and observed the situation to ensure that we uphold all the proper rules, regulations and guidelines put forth from Microsoft. This was a decision not made lightly on the part of our team.

As many of you may already be aware, ForgeHub will no longer be supporting content of any kind from the Eldewrito 0.6 mod for Halo Online.
