Because i made the 'no public betas' rule, i've made this forum for hostees to use.
It used in the same way as the 'project team' (you can get a sub-forum, this is the hub).
I'm sure there will be loads of testers, so do NOT list less than 5 testers at a time.

Ah, a new forum on the block.
So what is the idea... when you are ready to test, you post here and ask for testers?

Sort of.
Halo made a topic asking for 30 beta testers. It would help the Halo mod to have a forum for all the beta testers to post in, with there bug reports and to arrange matches.
If a password is used, 1 of the many beta testers could leak it.
To prevent the problem, i've made a new user group called 'Testing Team'. People in the testing team can see this hub forum. Thay can also see beta testers sub-forums for the specific mods (when there made).
This way theres no passwords to be leaked.
It also means the same testers could test other mods, like ReGen too. Though, this depends on what each mod leaders wants.

Depending on the beta distribution method used by the mod team it is still prefectly possible for a link to download the beta to be leaked, and no matter how good the security one of the testers could send the file to other people.
So it's all down to trust.

I was about to ask someone to make me a beta testing subforum, But i don't quite understand exactly what this is for. Is there going to be subforums here for all the mod testers to post at with an individual pw for each? (whoa my name is green now.. :so: )

You will have the testing sub-forum in your forum. This is just a hub forum for you to post the name of your testers.
It's the same as your staff forum. It's a sub-forum in your main Halo forum. There is a matching hub forum called Project Team.

With the 'don't post less than 5 testers' does that always apply? Normally when I do beta testing, I do it extensively with about 6 or so people, instead of giving it away to everyone who wants its.

Look under your avatar, see that bit that says hosted?
Anyone with Hosted, Project Team, Testing Team, Network Staff or Admin/Network Leader can see beta test forums.
If yours is passworded, the member would need to be in one of those groups and be given the pass.

The last 3 are done, the others are already hosted, so they don't need to be demoted.
