Boy, I am just starting to LOVE HLP lately. I've tried branching out into other communities lately (America's Army (again), Unreal Tournament, etc) and NONE of them have the maturity level shown here at HLP. Seriously, most are either over-moderated or completely devoid of intelligence!
Now, see, at HLP, we have people doing other people favors. I can put a thread out, asking fooor, say, the latest stats on baseball. And you know what? Someone will give them to me, eventually! Isn't that amazing!? On other forums, nooooo, I ask something, and it's SUCH A ****ING CHORE to do it!
Hell, I guess you REALLY have to be dedicated to play a game like Freespace 2 still, and it's lucky for us that most of that dedication comes into play in every other aspect of HLP.
