Title: HLP reaches new heights
Post by: Blue Lion on April 11, 2002, 04:14:28 pm: With the close of the VBB....

" Most users ever online was 40 on 04-11-2002 at 04:52 PM."

:jaw:

Let's hope HLP stays pure (relatively speaking :D)

Post by: Styxx on April 11, 2002, 04:55:10 pm: Well, I'm sure we won't have any problems here with trolls and such. Moderation here is orders of magnitude better than on the VBB you know? :D

Post by: Kamikaze on April 11, 2002, 05:07:12 pm: I actually think HLPs moderation is infinitely better. Because I give VBB moderation a big, fat ZERO - so the moderation here must be infinitely superior :p

Post by: elorran on April 11, 2002, 05:08:29 pm: Thats impressive. The only other place I've seen more than that was at Siegedom when it was up (homeworld and Gabriel Knight drifter community board).

Styxx.

Hmmmmmm I assume that the black text directed at Styxx was a joke about many times zero which is still zero? :D
It's true though, the moderation here is a million times better.

Post by: Setekh on April 12, 2002, 04:29:27 am: And I missed it. Just my luck I was at camp when they decided to shut down the VBB. ;)

I've said it many times before and it's probably worth it to say it again now: The HLP Way is not to ban or punish people who piss us off for a little while, but instead to build each other up and grow the community. That way everyone wins because the quality of the Forums skyrockets, and peacefully. So, that's the key, okay? Build each other up. Whether through telling people politely what they do wrong, offering constructive criticism or giving praise where it's due - do it. For everyone's good. :nod:

I missed the negotiations and the flames. It's just not the same reading the old posts and not being there to see them form... :D

S & T... :lol: :lol:

Post by: CP5670 on April 12, 2002, 08:31:20 am: I saw the initial post about the closing but the number of new posts following that were just too many for me to read. (topics with new posts almost filled up three pages in a matter of hours :p) It seemed that everyone piled up over there right after the announcement was made. :D

Argh! Okay, okay. You can still read all the mess that happened (specially some not-so-nice comments from a certain community programmer against a certain volition programmer)... I'm just waiting for them to close the thing for good now.

Actually, I did notice that you weren't here (because there were no posts from you and as far as I know, you are not much into lurking ;) )
I wasn't surpriced though, everyone needs/must have a time out now and then
