Yo dude.
We're all cool here, unlike the VBB (literally, no flames:p) so enjoy your stay :D

Hey, maybe we should set up a newcomers forum? Might be useful.

What about the Meson mines near the toilets? Or the BFred turrets in the disco-room? Or the Lucifer guarding the space-crack? Or Carl guarding the Shivan Room-O-Wuvin' (:D:drevil: )?

:snipe: ... I was going to, but then I decided to let the real veterans tell...but did you mean this?

Welcome to HLP!!
Exits are to the rear and left, in case of emergency shotguns are located under the seats.


and runes, if you ever go back to VBB, just tell them this...

Toilets, Disco-Room, Shivan Room-O-Wuvin. I'm not suprised you dodn't know about them. What do you think happened to the old Poor Setekh thread? That's right, a stray bit of toilet paper and B0Om! Incinerated thread.
Title: hey guys
Post by: Fineus on February 26, 2002, 04:20:50 pm
Oh there's a lot more than that, believe me - we just haven't chosen to.... announce it all yet ;)
Title: hey guys
Post by: Zeronet on February 26, 2002, 04:24:22 pm
Surely we have them. You know.... :D
Title: hey guys
Post by: an0n on February 26, 2002, 04:24:31 pm
If you mean the Shivan wuv-slave guarding the beer and women....we know. Why do you think there are 3 pregnant women and 6 of us have plasma burns and claw marks. Stryke got drunk and decided to 'tease' the Shivan, he lost an eye and an arm doing so.
Title: hey guys
Post by: Fineus on February 26, 2002, 04:28:59 pm
Oh no, we knew about that.. the administration has seen fit to create certain... failsafes. Nobody but us know about them, and if everyone else is lucky it'll stay that way.
Title: hey guys
Post by: Zeronet on February 26, 2002, 04:30:36 pm
No them, surely you can guess this, its ME after all.

Post by: an0n on February 26, 2002, 04:31:13 pm
*returns from a shadowly corner covered in scars and burn, smoking and limping*

Damn Shivan.....Worth it though.

*walks off and returns 3 minutes later with no hair*

There are flame-throwers in the air vents. And I saw some big black shiny thingy that drooled a lot too.
Title: hey guys
Post by: Corsair on February 26, 2002, 04:33:28 pm
Oh yes, I put those there with Thunder's permission the other day...keeps Carl out of the air vents and protects unsuspecting people who he likes to attack from time to time...
Title: hey guys
Post by: an0n on February 26, 2002, 04:34:27 pm
What about the black shiny thingy? I think it was laying eggs. Perhaps some guns are in order.
Title: hey guys
Post by: Zeronet on February 26, 2002, 04:36:25 pm
*cough* Hangers *cough*. Must be the cold weather :)
Title: hey guys
Post by: Corsair on February 26, 2002, 04:36:50 pm
Okay then, I'll talk to the admins and Narol, see if we can't get some Banshees up there too...
Oh and also, watch out for the Bosch Beer. I think it might have some wierd spacecrack in it.
Title: hey guys
Post by: Fineus on February 26, 2002, 04:38:28 pm
Mammas secret recipe... oh, and be careful around the hangerbay doors.... there are a few prox mines I forgot to pick up after yesterdays monthly Admin CTF game ;)

*eyes begin to glow and voice reverberates*

The basement is off limits also by decree of the system lor.....err....admins.

*collapses on floor as a snake-like thingy rips out of neck*
Title: hey guys
Post by: Corsair on February 26, 2002, 04:39:44 pm
Hmmm...I think that's why some of the Banshees exploded today when they tried to take off...
Oh well. Warn us next time we go out on patrol Thunder!

hmmm sounds like somebody left the nuclear reactor on and it mutated everyone in the basement...

Post by: an0n on February 26, 2002, 04:43:25 pm
Oh and if anyone seems a room labelled 'Plnkspth' don't open the door. I was playing with a gravitational weapon and some time shifting grenades and welll.....I kinda made and exponentially expanding black-hole. It only seems to suck in hair though (?!?).
Title: hey guys
Post by: Corsair on February 26, 2002, 04:49:24 pm
So that's why I've gone bald...
Also stay away from the funny-looking guy with the gold-plated arrays. He and his Vasudan friends are always looking for trouble, and if they catch up with you, they'll :snipe: and :headz: and then eat you like a steak...
Title: hey guys
Post by: an0n on February 26, 2002, 04:51:52 pm
*sneaks up behind the Vasudans and opens a nearby air-vent*
*runs like hell*

Hehe. Problem solved.
Title: hey guys
Post by: Corsair on February 26, 2002, 05:00:35 pm
Broiled steak! medium or well done, an0n?

*crawls out of air vent unscathed*
*looks at all the others with injuries*
pansies...
Title: hey guys
Post by: Corsair on February 26, 2002, 05:24:06 pm
Well I did miss one air vent...the only one that didn't have anything else in it, so I decided to keep one safe so I could make a hasty retreat in case I was beat up by a Shivan while trying to get to the women...:D
Title: hey guys
Post by: Thorn on February 26, 2002, 05:45:34 pm
*walks up to the room with the women in it*
*slides an undisclosed amount of money under the door*
*the door opens and two women are pushed out*
*walks away with women*

Post by: runes on February 26, 2002, 07:20:13 pm
thanks guys, for the warm welcome...


well, a bit about me...

i've been around freespace for a while... been around the VBB for a while (probably before Derelict's release... or around there somewhere) but this place seems cooler...

i don't do much, can't model, can't program, none of that stuff... :D but i love freespace, and always be willing to share my thoughts or input on new mods/pics/campaigns etc...
Title: hey guys
Post by: delta_7890 on February 26, 2002, 07:54:53 pm
Carl ate fluffy?!  NOOOO!!!  *screams and stomps off for a big-ass can o' Raid.*
Title: hey guys
Post by: NeoHunter on February 26, 2002, 08:43:12 pm
I think we should scrap the "shotgun under the seat" idea. What if  Carl the Shivan took SpaceCrack and we feel the need to blast him? I think we should start change it to "PPGs under the seats" so that we may not cause unwanted damage to the forums. Just damage to Carl.:D

Yub yub!:nod:

Post by: LtNarol on February 26, 2002, 10:03:14 pm
Erh..the 158th Banshee Squadron is currently on maneuvers , no comment on the exploding Banshees.  Suffice it to say that one wing is in the airducts watching...waiting...so do go up there ;)
Title: hey guys

Post by: an0n on February 27, 2002, 03:27:07 pm
I dunno about you guys but if Carl gets hold of the space-crack I'm putting low yield thermo-nuclear devices under the seats.
Title: hey guys
Post by: LtNarol on February 27, 2002, 03:49:53 pm
if Carl gets his claws on the SpaceCrack, im getting in my assault suit and taking him down....erh, did i just say that out loud? ignore the assault suit comment...you cant know about that yet, not until after you've placed TFP. *off to side: Muahahahaha *

Welcome runes!! :nod:

Shotguns under seats concept (c) Maeglamor 2001 - 2099

Shotguns are all that's available to everyone barring admins (the only thing we can get in large enough amounts...). Carl remains protected under the 'This Shivan will kick your ass, leave him alone.' act.

And don't be surprised if you see some Ewoks running about. They seem to have intergrated themselves into the HLP forums and made themselves very at home. You may sometimes find a Lt Kettch under your seat in place of your shotgun or PPG.

Yes, the Ewoks are coming...
