*Cobra and InfernoGod get into a fight*
Cobra: SO WHAT? I DON'T GIVE A S**** ABOUT IDEAS!!
InfernoGod: YEAH, BUT THEY WERE MY IDEAS!
Cobra: Why you---
*Sok, pow*
-
Do we really need 5 forums? :wtf:
This isn't a large community....
-
it's called "just in case"
-
No, it's called "It's OK to have another few forums, because these two aren't really for big campaign stuff. They are just for personal and discussion use, not OMFG IT'S ANOTHER HLP/GAME WARDEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Hey, my post is above Cobra's...
The evil demons are up to something again...
-
Well, just in case, there's NW, SectorGame, and Gamewarden, too.
-
why am I posting in the past?
-
dude... DYNAMIC IS SCREWED

*sigh* here we go again...
oooh, phpbb.

Hippo created the GTD Bastion forums, but actually, the thought had never really occured to me that he had created a forum.
And for the time warping answer...
read my reports if you haven't.

So, Hippo, I didn't mean to take your idea. I didn't even remember you had those forums up. So don't kill me.
-
I need someone to evaluate PHPbb for me for a while......
Contact me if you are interested....
-
have hippo do it ;)
-
AFAIK my forum was up before Hippo's, but if I'm wrong please correct me. And my Forum is mainly for discussing TTR because HLP isn't hosting any new projects ATM, but I've added a general Discussion and Rants part incase people want to talk there for some reason.
-
I want my own forum.:p

*gives weatherop his own forum*

:lol:
can someone join, please? there's only 2 members :(
-
I actually like Cobra's board style better than the ones on sectorgame, even if it is one of those free mass-produced ones.
Too lazy to join though- I probably wouldn't end up posting anyways.
-
how dare you?! :D
-
how about if I add an SCP category ;7
-
Well, Sectorgame is very quiet at the moment, too quiet in fact. I suppose theres little imperative for Hunter to do anything with it when nothing much happens. I've not had much chance to do TI stuff, even HLP has been a little bit quieter than usual these last few weeks. I personally don't think more forums is going to change that :(
Theres already a backup SCP Forum at Sectorgame Cobra, it'd be best to leave the SCP stuff to 'official' forums, so people actually know where to go for info ;)
-
:wtf:
-
:wtf: :wtf:
-
Do we seriously need so many forums? One or two extras are ok, but so many is pointless. Hell, look at cobras, there's like 5 or 6 posts total, and I doubt the others are much better. Pretty much every person who's into Freespace hangs out here or o nthe other three major forums...what will any of these new forums, not just yours, Cobra, offer that's different than what we have already?
I can see a few of the forums with the hosting, but just a plain old forum and website is dumb, imho.
-
:wtf: wtf are the :wtf:s for?
-
Just of random curiocity, what are the other 3 major forums you can think of? I'd think of them as HLP, and then there's 4 other nameable forums of rather decent size...
-
MY forum is where I'm going to put up forums for the campaigns I'll be doing.
-
hm... I don't think UT's actually posted yet :p
EDIT: or maybe he has... :nervous:
-
Let me count e'm, HLP,SG,GW,Cobra's,Inferno's,Hades Combine,Hippo's. Kie's.
Yep, thats 8 of e'm. Is that all of them?
-

Same problem. :p I only really check HLP for comments on the SCP, it's rare that I venture to some other forum.
I've probably visited sectorgame just as many times to redownload the music MP3s as I have to post on the forums (excluding when HLP was down)
-
OMG!!! I have a forum too!: http://www.phpbbplanet.com/forum/index.php?mforum=primusnovaforum
Why? I have no idea! It's empty. Don't go there. Stay here. @ HLP! Or go to GW.. Or where ever you want...
:sigh: I gotta go to sleep... :lol:
(just for the record. my forum was up b4 hippo's, kie's, or cobras's ;))
-
... Am I the only one other than SG, NW, and HC that actually OWN the pages the forum resides on?
-
Redmenace and Cobra, I would like to officially award you both the 'Copius and unexplained use the the wtf smiley' award.
Do you deny this forum has been quiter of late? Do you deny that Sectorgame is quiet to the point of Hunter thinking of packing it in? Do you deny that there is a second offical SCP forum at Sectorgame? Cos if you deny any of them you are wrong.
-
No, Primus has a website his forum is on too. Well, I guess since last year was "the year of the n00b", this is "the year of the forum":D
-
You understand once you got your own Personal Forum (not talking about project hosts) you've "Jumped the Shark". I don't have my own forum for the following reasons: I am not interesting enough, I am not cool enough, and I have anything to say that can't be said anywhere else :P Oh yeah forgot the most crucial one... I am not egotistical enough :ha: That will change when I become the Internet Commander! (on that day PLEASE shoot me!) :D
-
Will I get paid?:confused:

No. My forum is not on same server than the site. I did plan to put it there, but I guess the php don't work on that server or I didn't install it correctly or something...
Anyway.. I don't need the current forum... I wonder if it can be removed....

Hunter is really thinking of closing down?! Thats sad....
If anything GW (http://www.game-warden.com) has been growing activity and member wise at a pretty steady rate ever since it opened (about 2.5-3 months ago). The activity really kicked in though only recently when I switched webhosts, registered a domain name, redid the styles to look spiffier and hosted like 5 new projects...
-
Very Sad, I found SG first.:(
But, I agree that GW is close if not faster growing than HLP.
-
Well, I think it's more than simply the silence on the Forums, but at the very least, failing luck, a downsize may well be on the way.
The private Forums are quite busy, and my own thoughts that Hunter would keep things open for the Descent side of things at the very least, but I certainly know that if I were him, I too would be concnered about how quiet it is on there.
-
I hadn't heard this... :(
-
Well if hunter needs help with webspace (for files, SQL, PHP scripts etc) by all means tell him to contact me. I always hate to see a place die.....
-
*sigh* *holds up a sign that says "spam"*
-
I don't think SG Forums would die completely, it's sort of an institution, but it's needs some life other than in the download section ;)
-
*returns from the future*

Says someone who posted 2 wtf smileys as his entire post.
Grow up Cobra. I notice you're fine with Spam as long as it's your own. If you are going to get all possesive over your threads then it just gives me another reason not to visit your forum.
Or was that simply the best comeback that you could manage?
-
um....could i have the SG link? i lost it when i did an fdisk.
to the topic at hand. I don't think it a bad idea to have a forum dedicated to your mod. in fact that's not a bad thing at all. except for one thing. where will you put your attachments and downloads, your website etc. and if you have webspace for that...why not put your forums on that webspace and host yourselves?
I don't consider NW to be a main forum. Maybe that's just because i don't go there. HLP, GW, and SG are the ones that i consider to be main forums. When VWBB **crosses himself** died, a void was left, for the time i think that SG filled it. I think of GW as VWBB reborn. we are currently hosting 10 projects....including SG1 and BSG. I don't think of the forums as a competition, but alternatives to hosting. Currently HLP is not accepting new projects, neither is GW, but i can guarantee that Hippo is. GTD Bastion is accepting projects for hosting. if you talk nice to hippo, maybe the project doesn't have to be a mod. Maybe something like that Campaign list that shows the branches of the story line that ummmm, ummmm, uhhhh, that one guy wants to do. I think that while his name escapes me, the endeavor is worthwhile, and can really add to the experience of the game. i am looking at it as sort of an FS2 sourcebook. I like the idea, so hippo, talk to the guy before i talk matthewpapa and nighthammer into making an exception to our no more projects rule. ;)
Cobra and Inferno...if you guys have things that you need hosted, a forum is not the answer, Hosting is.

In case you haven't noticed, EVERY thread i make gets spammed.
-
In case you hadn't noticed every thread on HLP doesn't stay within it's thread 'title' for long. It's called 'flow of conversation', it usually gets dragged back on track eventually, but to post a completely pointless post, i.e. the wtf one, and then when other people go back to discussing FS2 Forums, you accuse that of being spam is more than a bit silly.
Oh, and Shadow -
