Title: SCP History?
Post by: colecampbell666 on July 23, 2007, 07:48:28 pm
I'm compiling a guide to everything FreeSpace. So far it is only a title and table of contents, and the first edition will only include a Turey's installer how-to and a few tidbits. The thing that I'm looking for is a few important dates (the original date of the SC release from Volition, the first SCP release, names of members, and other important stuff. Anyone willing to help out?

Because he's still full of energy, and flush with newly-acquired knowledge!

Let n00bs be n00bs, Obi-Wan.  They only have a little while.

Indeed, I never thought I'd say this, but I agree with Kazan. And you have a large task if you want to chart the SCP's history cole...aren't you a little new for that? ;)

Yep, it's annoying when you do it purposefully too jr2.

doing it on purpose should be a ban

EDIT: It irritates me when I see people trying to control others' user preferences... there is an option to disable signatures in your profile.  The maximum allowable characters for a siggy is 2000, not 200, contrary to popular wishing in certain circles.  So, you irritated me first.  If you find a siggy particularly annoying, maybe you could make a suggestion, and something *might* happen... (note that there are no longer [hr] lines in my siggy).   :blah:

Back on topic: I believe there was a thread of this sort pretty recently? That listed some of the highlights of the SCP's developement? I'll see if I can't find it...

EDIT: I can't... I remember the thread, but I cannot remember what forum it was in or what it was called... :(

WMCoolmon gets bored and writes a story (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,46950.0.html)


It wasn't all that hard to find. Then again, I happened to remember a couple of expressions used in it, so a search with "SCP middle ages" popped it up front. It would be more difficult if you didn't remember some semi-unique phrase from the text, though. :p

It irritates me when someone feels I should disable signatures totally because of one person's stupidly enormous one while I still might want to see the signatures of others.


On-Topic:  This could be interesting, but I doubt people beyond the devoted few would get into it.

Isn't there a version of it on the wiki? That's probably the place for it if not.

And knock off the irritating. I can't ban you, but I can lock posts.

-edit-
Just check, guess I thought this was a longer entry:
http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/FSSCP_Introduction

A few of us (myself in cluded) can fill in the blanks if someone wants to draft the wiki page.

I suggest you shorten your sig since it's length is pissing people off. You don't have to use all 2000 characters. Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should, like driving 40mph on the highway for example.
