Argh, I am a bit to young for any of the roles (14...)
How old is the youngest HLPer?
(P.S - I'm fourteen too.)
-
I'm 16.
-
18 in 12 days.
-
How old is the youngest HLPer?
Go ask hades...according to his personal message he is the youngest person to play freespace...
-
I think he's 12. Titan is also comparatively young (I believe also 12).
-
so i guess i was the youngest (just turned 13) until they came along...what a relief :lol:
-
I thinkt you're right about Hades. I meant to include that in my post.

Hey if you want to know my age...click my name.
Also i played The Freespace 2 demo CD thing when I was six.When interplay was Among the living.Then when i was 7 I got Fs1.
-
^ditto^
-
I started playing Freespace when I was 10 years old.
-
I think he's 12. Titan is also comparatively young (I believe also 12).
I thought Titan was 11.
But anyway, I remember when I was 13 and on here.
Man was I stupid.
EDIT: In another two years, I can guarantee I'll be as stupid as I think 13 was now. And 13 will seem even stupider.
-
I don't find that to be the case really... I've never felt as stupid as I did when I was 13.
-
I played FS1 I think when I was... Eight or nine, funnily enough...
-
well, I have been playing descent since I was six. 6-8 d1
8-15 d2
15 - 264 d3 and d2x-xl.
-
I don't find that to be the case really... I've never felt as stupid as I did when I was 13.
I'm just saying that in two years, how I acted at thirteen will seem even stupider, and how I act at 15 will just start to seem stupid.
EDIT: We should get back on topic before Goob sees that we killed his thread :p.
-
Too late. :p
By the way, I started playing TIE Fighter when I was 12, so by the time I got FreeSpace, I was already an ace pilot. :D
-
The depressing part is, I bought FS1 in 1999, and I was 26..... :(

Yup, star wars space-sims tend to be really challenging. when did you get freespace?
-
I was 16 when I first started to playing FreeSpace. I didn't realize we had so many youngins on the board :)
Thats ok! You folks are supposed to be filled with youthful enthusiasm that hasn't been dampened just yet.
-

I was 20 when I purchased both FS1 and FS2 that same year. It was right after I got back from a deployment to Kuwait and I purchased my first computer with the money I had earned tax free while over seas.

-
old guy, 21 started playing in 99 i think
-
22, heard of it in '98 or '99, played the demos in '03 or '04, and bought FS1 & downloaded FS2 + SCP shortly thereafter. Also played the Halo demo & bought that... as well as Descent 3. But I was playing Descent: Destination Saturn since like '96 or '97... Before that, the best I had was Xenon 2: Megablast by the Bitmap Brothers :eek2:
-
17, turns 18 in october. I'm Singaporean! Any other Singaporeans?
I heard of FS2 ... 2 years ago. =( I was in my mandatory DotA stage before that.

And then they grew up...had their own kids...were afraid to touch them and "created" the current situation. Neither is right. Parents should control their kids without resorting to excessive violence and physical harm. Ultimately what that has been shown to do is create resentment and backlash and here's the backlash...some of the worst behaved kids in a very long time. Hopefully the pendulum will swing more to the middle.
-
WTF is "excessive" violence? Today you can't touch a kid without XY groups coming all over you..it's redicolous..you got 10 year old that smok,e drink and act tough..and act like vandals - especialyl to the elderly.
A good spanking or a slap on the cheek is what's needed now and then... You know what would happen earler if you called your teacher a b***? You'd get whipped so hard you'd avoid sitting down for the rest of the day. Chidler actualyl had respect towards others..
Today tehy call in a councelor or do nothing...no wonder kids are like tehy are...
-
South Park teaches very important moral values. Cartman's mother lets him do anything, and he goes around dressing up as Hitler and ordering the extermination of the Jews. Then, we have Butters, who is grounded all the time and look at the sweetie he is (despite the side effects of psychological instability and all that).
-
Heh, as I've said before, part of the reason for the massive rise in crime is the massive rise in the number of laws it's possible to break ;) 20 Years ago, spanking your child for being naughty was considered to be 'discipline', nowadays, it's 'child abuse'...
-
I don't see spanking as being excessive violence or a slap on the check either. I'm not convinced that they would always be effective but I'm not strictly opposed to their use. But some parents have, can, and still do take things to the next level and thats where its traumatic and abusive and excessive and causes far more harm than good.
Its gone too far to one side right now...and if anything happens to some parents kid its always everyone elses fault and their kids never take responsibility for their own actions and the parents don't take responsibility for their actions in bringing up the kid. The taking of responsibility is a big thing for me.
-
You can never get it just right. It's always slanted one way or the other.
Why am I saying this?
-
Heh, not as old as some, and older than many these days.
Besides, you're only as old as the person you feel. ;7
edit: heh, now this is the HLP I know and love - politics out of nowhere. :yes:

I'm Singaporean! Any other Singaporeans?
Heh, not Singaporean, but it's becoming my second home. I spend at least two months a year there.
25 in October.

@Icefire
Agreed, theres a big difference between discipline and beating your child, it has swung too far the other way, a child who knows that their parents aren't the final word is going to be trouble.
-
I'm Singaporean! Any other Singaporeans?
Me.
-
Oooo. Snail, seriously a singaporean?

The problem is not that you can't smack your kids. The problem is that for some parents that was the only way they knew how to discipline their kids.
Anyone want to tell me that this parent (http://www.showmethemooneys.com/mooneys/blog/cache/ps2_punish.html) needs to smack his kids for them to know not to cross him? :D
-
Yeah, but I've lived in London for the majority of my life (I've only spent about a year in Singapore anyway). Usually I go back to Singapore every winter to meet up with friends and family.
-
Snail is in London?,................
Why ain't i aware of this. :confused: Are you paying the Dekker tax :cool:
-
Yes, there are Snails in London.

If you ever lost your house, i'd have to call you Slug................
Muahahahah, j/k ;7

True..smacking is for those cases when the kid really deserves it (does somethign really bad after being warned several times). And there are some kids with which talking has little to no effect.
Talking, presents, bribes, blackmail, smacking - whatver works. :D
-
Removing freespace and all other space games from the kid's computer.
That's what happened to Joshua (temporarly)... He will continiue to act this weird, 'till he gets his games back and he has played long enough to restore the brain damage.
Due to school, this happened.
-
That's nice, Joshua, but please try to be normal. It's probably behavior like this which got you into the position you're in. Now go jump out of a window or something.
-
Joshua wou... Ehm.. thanks for the advice.
Actually, it was because of I setted my priority's the wrong way
Joshua's priority list:
1) Freespace
2) School...
You know what... I am going to dig up sushi's velocity mod and work on my own mod again... mabye that will clear it.
-
I don't see anything wrong with that list. :confused:
Thats how mine is and I had a 3.8 last semester.
Oh wait! That was freshmen year! crap! :shaking:
-
Why am I saying this?
Because your snail. You can say anything
-
or a slap on the check either.
Sure, it's not abuse, but I'm not sure the bank will accept it after that kind of thrashing. :D
-
Why am I saying this?
Because your snail. You can say anything
Except for things offensive to Jews or Muslims. Nobody can touch them.
-
19 in a couple months. God, I've been a freespace fan for nearly ten years- half my life. As disturbing as it might sound, these two games are a little bit of who I am.
-

I don't believe you need to smack your kids. I don't believe that there are any kids who won't respond to another form of punishment.
I do however believe that it can be a quick and effective punishment and something which everyone knows how to do. If you watch those "supernanny" style programmes you'll see that there are other effective ways to deal with your kids. The problem is that parents have stopped smacking children but no one has bothered to teach them any other alternative so by and large the entire generation is making it up as they go along.

Sorry, but I just can't stop linking this conversation to South Park...

Not seen the episode. Which one is it?

Heh, bribery is an acceptable punishment as well I guess. The problem is, I suspect it's only a matter of time in the UK before 'denying me my leisure time' becomes some kind of breach of Human Rights or the like, so removing privileges will also start to be frowned on, you'll just be told to 'talk to your child', but not given any hints as to what about, how or why. I've seen 8 year old kids scream 'I'll phone Childline!' as soon as they are denied something, admittedly, the parents ignored it, but we live in such a 'lynch-mob' culture these days, I sometimes wonder....
-
My response to "I'll call Childline!" has always been "When they put you in care I'll have more money to spend on me. Need change?"
-
If you'll watch South Park you'll notice that Cartman, the bad one, has saved the town more than anyone else.
The hippie concert, the snuke, etc., etc. :lol:

*kicks colecampbell666*
Ninja weapons episode is the best.......

I am 14 now. I was like 9 when I played FS2 and beat the game.
-
When I played FS2 for the first time, I got to the second to last mission (ATM I didn't know) and I just stopped playing because it was too long. :doubt:
As you can tell I didn't read any of the briefings or anything.
-
I once got stuck on training 6 or someting, I couldn't figure out how to target the subsystem even though it said how to...

Same, except I already turned 18. It's crazy how one game can affect someone so much :D
And anyway, I still believe that giving a good thwack on the rear is effective for disciplining your children, although it should always be a last resort. I learned that lying was a bad thing that way, and I make it a point to never lie if I can to this day.

My dad through me and my brothers n64 down a 15ft tall staircase when i was 12 because my older bro broke my dads gps (that was when they were knew and ****ing huge too). I started crying shortly afterwards because i paid for half of that thing. The cool thing is that is still worked perfectly despite broken casing as opposed to my dads completely broken gps.
Anyway i will be 23 in october, and first found the fs1 demo and fs2 demo when i was 15, and shortly bought fs2 later that year.
Spanking is universal and works great. It's like what the bible says, don't spare your child the rod(don't spare your child punishment and correction). A thump on the head or whack on the bum creates pain. And pain = lessons learned fast...or very slowly in some cases in those kids who just don't want to learn. While some other punishment techniques that may be considered modern and non-abusive or whatever bs. While some of those may work, giving your kids a beat down is way faster and easier. In my mind as effective punishments with taking your kids' stuff away from them a second place for speed and ease, beating up your kid is the way to go.
I always got this spoon (http://www.justbynature.com/images/WoodenSpn.gif)
And it hurt like a *****, though my brother hardly ever got this spoon.
He did get this one (http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/21CMXHAY8RL._AA280_.jpg)
And they did eventually break it on him too :lol:
-
Just to be cautious, we're not talking about abuse here... spanking and beating are two different things. :rolleyes:
-
I know a few kids that are obnoxios...there's just no talking sense into them...even beating the crap out of them has little effect...thickheaded and stubborn as hell. :doubt:
-
God damn 10 year old kid came over to my house and threatened to pour water on THIS computer. All the things I said to him just made him laugh and he was smiling all the way. I actually wanted to kill him. Instead, I deleted all the games on his Game Boy later on. He went home bawling and crying his eyes out. Was I sorry? Heck no. That felt great. :D
Evidently, I did kick him a bit but he didn't care, just smiled and laughed and threatened to pour water on the computer.

Showed his sorry arse...

Then I got shouted at, but it was worth it. :D

Kids tend to avoid me in the streets. Must be the fact that i literally look down at them all.
-
Ya, i beat up some kid for taking 20 bucks from me...
-
Thing is, my Dad didn't ever beat me, I think I got spanked once in my entire life, and that was when I was about 6 and I ran a key along about 5 cars in the street I lived in, I was too young to realise it was wrong really, but I soon found out.
The fact of the matter was, the simple fact that the option of spanking was there in the first place was enough to exert control over me to a certain degree, remove the option, you remove a level of discipline, not because you can't soank your child, but because your child knows you cannot spank them.
-
i've probably been spanked 20 times back in the junior days...
-
I was spanked literally 3 times a day. :nervous:

For all those people out there who hate undisciplined children, you'll probably love this bash.org quote:
http://bash.org/?777977
<Anonymous> Now, I’m sure many of you have encountered little ****s in supermarkets. Little kids running about and knocking things over, being rude, walking all over their parents, you know the kind. But the worst are the biters. Yes, those little ****s that feel it is okay to bite you whenever they feel like it.
<Anonymous> Okay, here’s the best part. A biter got me today when I was grocery stopping. He broke the ****ing skin, too. This was when the gears started turning, the moment I saw a tiny sprickle of blood on the little ****’s teeth as he was grinning at me like the little **** he is. I made my eyes get wide, and started screaming “****! ****!.” Now, my good friend, Tom we’ll call him, was there too, and he instantly picked up on it. He started shouting “****! MAYBE HE DIDN’T GET IT! ****!.” By now, the kid is scared ****less and starts crying, and instantly, Mizz Mom appears out of nowhere and starts getting pissy at us for yelling at her kid.
<Anonymous> Here’s the kicker, I look her straight in the eye and say, “Mam, get your son tested as soon as possible, he just bit me and I’m… I’m ****ING HIV POSITIVE.”
<Anonymous> And now there is silence. Not a peep in the entire store. The brat knows he just ****ed up big time because his mom isn’t defending his ass. She just stares at me wide eyed. I walk away from them, buy my **** from the wide eyed cashier, all the while blood is dripping from my calf, making a nice little trail on the floor. And, just s we leave, we start to hear the mother sobbing. Sobbing like the **** she is.
<Anonymous> I have never felt any more satisfaction than the moment I heard that sob.
-
I do love it. :nervous: J/K But sknowing me i would have YELLED LOUDER THAN THIS. :lol:
Also Spanking doesn't help i mean i was spanked every day and im still evil.....

Hades, it's half the reason you are evil..you can take a beating and still get going after the first hundred spankings.

Ha ha ha, nice

My parents spanked me when i was growing up, but only when i deserved it. By the time i was 9 I never got spanked again. Why? because i wasn't a little asshole anymore. It taught me respect for my elders. I love that quote above, nobody dicsiplines their children anymore and they run around and scream and bite. At the grocery store I walk right next to my mom and wasn't a little prick. At school I see all these kids how are assholes and will always be assholes. Spanking me was the best thing my parents ever did for me.

Some smart ass kid yelled at my younger brother and made him cry. And then laughed at him. Then I went up and asked him why did he yell at 'That kid over there'. I didn't say he was my younger brother. and the kid said, 'For fun.' Then I said, 'Oh, okay. Then i'm going to slap you.' He looks at me and says 'why?' I say:'For ****ing fun. For ****ing yelling at my younger brother.' Then he freaks and runs away.
Here's the best part. He ran and got his big brother. Who asked me 'How dare you yell at my brother and threaten to hit him!' I just stared at him, deadpan, looking straight into his eyes. Then he noticed I was holding something wrapped in cloth, and he started panicking. Then I said, 'He started it. He just needs to apologiese.' So he made his younger brother apologies to my younger brother, and then he actually ran.
-
This one time, I beat up a kid right in front of my mom. :nervous:
She just told me not to do it again.

Ha ha...i outta try that, since i have three siblings of my own to defend :D
Of course it wont work on the same person twice...

I got bullied a lot when i was young. Hell when i was 6 one bigger kid the same age as me tried to pick me up by my neck. The bigger kid and his friend were making fun of my ears which stuck out a little when i was younger. So i called the bigger one a butt head and didn't quite run away. I just walked away without thinking about running (i should have ran). Then it's me against a wall trying to be picked up by the neck. I never had anyone to watch out for me. Hell even some of my friends were double crossing assholes.
Later in my life i just made friends with all the bullies, and that worked out just great since they actually ended up being cool people while they're still bullying my backstabbing friends (which my old friends completely deserved). I was a skinny quiet weak fry growing up. Later in life i learned how to bully people too, the few times i bully people is when i'm bullying the pieces of **** who bully other people (i bully the bullies). Mainly because i do enjoy pushing bully's around whenever i get a chance, and not everyone out there has people to stand up for them, sort of like when i was growing up.

I hate this no-tolerance policy in Canadian and (other?) schools. They say that the second that there is bullying the kid gets suspension, but the hardcore assholes in my school rarely get truly punished. They just get an in-school suspension, which isn't punishment at all.
My parents, and all of my friends parents, actually encourage violent defense against these kids. I have beaten the living **** out of several of them on several occasions. Some of them still don't learn though. One of them will get the picture and leave me alone for several years until I have to re-fresh his memory. The rest leave me alone for good.

TBH, age doesn't really matter on the internet.... its how you act.......... I'm 15 BTW.
-
Age is a state of mind.... usually time changes it for the better... (at least you hope so).
-
Some of you scare me, but this thread is fun. Venting one's anger out at stupid little ****ers who deserve it is really fun. That vengeful fury that you unleash on them just makes me feel so damn good. And then seeing them weeping away is great.
Any more fun stories to pass around? :D

once, i necro'ed a thread and didnt get a :necro: message from someone else. how exilarating! forum life is SO exiting! :rolleyes:
ok, a better one. i was once the best modder in my house. and then SOMEONE learned how to tile textures...
:lol: You are right, forum life is so EXITING. In fact you got ip-banned last time. I guess that goes along with the forum life is so exiting for you dealie. I guess besides the cheese jokes that you are in the right thread for us to judge what age you are, for you to tell us what it actually is, for us not to believe your answer, and for you to defend your claim.
Speaking of kids. I rarely get mad, i try to be very peaceful, and i put up with a whole lot of stupid **** from people. Well i was hanging out at the liquor store with my friend who was behind the counter. And one of the *****es who worked there wasn't anywhere to be found, but her 11 year old child was. He's a short skinny red head piece of **** who stomped on my ut2004 box full of the game discs while he was rampaging and destroying my best friends house while he was being babysitted by my best friends little bro, this was when he was 8. This kid completely is pretty much what snail described when he had a kid threatening a computer with a cup of water. Hell if this kid will destroy and rampage anyones stuff if you try to force him to eat a can of chef boyardee beef ravioli as opposed to giving him a candy bar 24/7. Anyway, he was being all annoying at this liquor store i was hanging out at, and this kid started messing with the cash register trying to open it, took like 7 long sticks of beef jerky without buying them (most of those made it onto the floor), he took 4 20 ounce pepsi's (idk where he took those), he tried taking some candy. But, the thing that really set me off after half an hour of annoying stealing and me and the cashier telling the kid to go home was when the kid started messing with the machine that prints your receipts. He just held down the button so the receipt machine would dispense it's whole roll of paper.
That pissed me off more than the wasting of food on the floor and the greed in taking a ton of 20 ounce sodas. I did it without thinking, i yelled at the kid calling him a piece of **** and that he needs to go home. After that he left. And in my vow to have a balanced and peaceful attitude and personality, i realized that yelling can actually scare people, which was wierd for me because i did not know that.

Kinda missed this till now: Ill be 21 next month, ot FS 10 years ago and fell in love ever since.
As for spanking\beating\whatever:
A very good and hard slap in the face does wonders in children education most often than not. Theres other viable methods, but nothing can replace focalized, intense pain in a square inch of your body :P
And in all honestly its ridiculous that nowadays a teacher gets sued for doing his\her frakking job!!! (educating the younglings= a good slap in the face when needed).
-
Waht was this all about anyway? Age or spoiled brats?
-
If it's just about age, then you're in for a very dull thread indeed. You just get a whole bunch of single line posts saying how old you are, and no one bothers to read any posts.

Never had a pc as a kid, though I always wanted one, so my space sim experaince is rather limted.
Played Colony Wars back in the day, oh and wing commander on the snes. As far a I remeber there just wasnt much space sim type games on the consoles that I had as a child.
Now I'm grown up (or at least I tell myself that) I came upon freespace completly by mistake, had suscrbied to Gametap and they have freespace 1 and 2 on their game list. Tried them and liked what I saw, googled freespace (Ok, I admit I was looking to pirate a copy of it) and came upon this forum.
Oh, and I'm 26, feel like an old man compared to all the young'ns here.

I bought brand-spanking-new copies of FS1, Silent Threat, and FS2, and then I found HLP. I slapped myself repeatedly for days. At least I have a mint condition copy of all of the games. ;7

:wtf:

I had just bought FS2 when I could have gotten it for free.

...Right over your head.

Now it's my turn to say :wtf:

Whooooooshhhh
;)
Any other bratty kid stories? I love hearing those.
-
Not much. Unless you count my kid brother wiping my FS2 directory clean. Arse.
-
Holy ****. I would kick his ass extremely badly if mine did that. But he knows so he wouldn't do it.
-
You don't do that, it's cruel. Do something sadistic like destroying a prized possession, in my sisters case (not that I have done it yet) delete her Webkinz account, etc, etc.
-
What the frazzle is WebKinz?, sounds scary........
-
Well he knows I can be very... Unpleasant when I want to be.

I'm going to assume it's the American or British version or Nexopia. Cole knows what i meen.

It is an online game where you buy stuffed animals with a code. The code is entered on webkinz.com and you get your pet online.
What the hell is Nexopia?

You meen like those damned tomagachi thingies?
Well, not every Canadian knows what Nexopia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexopia) is.
Well, it's like a teen profile/blog network thingy based in Edmonton, Canada. I don't bother with that girly junk (even though half of it's users are male too), but i know it has over a million users.

It is actually better than those stupid Tamagotchis, but yeah, same difference.
