On June 17, Adjutant started a thread in the Bungie.net Halo 3 forum entitled "Stop it." In the thread, it stated that its integrity was being attacked and that it could only maintain it for about 22 hours. It also posted the cryptic message "By the pricking of my thumbs," a quote from William Shakespeare's play '''Macbeth,''' which precedes the line "Something wicked this way comes" in the play. | On June 17, 2007, Adjutant started a thread in the Bungie.net Halo 3 forum entitled "Stop it."

The next day, about 22 hours later, Adjutant started a thread called "That Old Life", stating that it could "not prevail" against the attacks and that an "older life" was here with us that had both higher rank and more strength than Adjunct. Adjutant then stated, "I will seek one of you out and leave my legacy in a small space." In the same thread, Adjutant stated that this "life" has had "millennia for reflection, but what image does he see?", this was in reference to Mendicant Bias being locked away for a millennia to reflect on its actions. | The next day, about 22 hours later, Adjutant started a thread called "That Old Life", stating that it could "not prevail" against the attacks and that an "older life" was here with us that had both higher rank and more strength than Adjunct.

At 9:08 AM PDT on June 19, [[Bungie.net]]'s member, '''x Foman123 x''', received a distressed private message from Adjutant called "HELP ME".<ref>[[:File:AR Warning.JPG|First Message to xFoman123x]]</ref> The entity claimed that it had already been defeated and that ''"peril"'' was near, and asked the user to warn the Community of the threat. Over three increasingly despairing private messages, the entity revealed that a new "machine" that was much more powerful, intelligent, and higher "ranking" would take over. | At 9:08 AM PDT on June 19, 2007, [[Bungie.net]]'s member, '''x Foman123 x''', received a distressed private message from Adjutant called "HELP ME".<ref>[[:File:AR Warning.JPG|First Message to xFoman123x]]</ref> The entity claimed that it had already been defeated and that ''"peril"'' was near, and asked the user to warn the Community of the threat.

Mendicant Bias, using the same account as the previous Adjutant Reflex created a new thread called "Last Word", stated that we should be concerned about its "intent" rather than its "identity", and indicated that it would no longer communicate through Bungie.net. It vaguely referred to something that would take place on June 20, but refused to elaborate. | Mendicant Bias, using the same account as the previous Adjutant Reflex created a new thread called "Last Word", stated that we should be concerned about its "intent" rather than its "identity", and indicated that it would no longer communicate through Bungie.net.
