AHA!

[redmenace]

it would be funny if dave magically appeared and posted a message.

Wow, that was two years ago? Man... I remember I almost didn't come to HLP.. it was just so unfamiliar.. but lucky for me, it was welcoming enough, and now it's my home! w00t!

[Janos]

at the render. Even though n00bie rush is actually a good thing, as it proves the forum has vitality and isn't just a circle-jerk of grumpy old men who've "seen it all, boy,"

I don't remember it all that clearly, but it was a long and incoherent ramble which began roughly like
"D**** KAZAN M*** YOU A LOSER AND ARROGANT PRICK".
Then it went downwards from there. I believe the poster had some really good point. He apparently went in for constructive criticism.

But VBB was good, now we have VWBB [dead] and this [small].

[kasperl]

idea: make a picture with a SCP'd ship and a few retail escape pods and transports like the one at the top of the page.

[Gloriano]

It's been already 2years darn :

R.I.P VBB.

[Kazan]

Orange never went in for constructive criticism - after the first time he argued with me and got owned really bad he just started acting like a ten year old


which could also be said about a certain volition employee who i've given up trying to be nice to - i think i very publically embarassed him, especially when i pointed out the arguments to a professor

[Flipside]

LOL I love this place, only on HLP could someone post a picture for the anniversary of the death of the VBB and have people have as much to say about how the render should have been done as the subject itself.

HLP, there's no place like it

[Hippo]

/me doesn't think anyone noticed the name of the Orion

[ChronoReverse]

What? Hard Light?  Isn't that the point of the picture?

[Flipside]

Yes, but the Flak cannons aren't firing at the escape pods....

[Hippo]

They should be

Wouldn't have it any other way.

Try saying his name three times.

DaveB! DaveB! DaveB!

Nope, didn't work...

[kasperl]

yeah, well, the debate after the Columbia wreck caused him to leave in disgust, so i doubt he'd come back.

[Sesquipedalian]

Hardly surprising.  I was pretty disgusted with it too.

I actually saved some VBB pages from ages ago, I was planning to save more but never had the time, well lets just say they took the forum down too fast. Heres one of them

[Grey Wolf]

I had already jumped ship to HLP well before that point. BTW, anyone have the Volition Bible floating around? Wouldn't mind reading that again....

I spotted this while searching the Wayback Machine Steak posted,

At the time people would have probably thought, yeah whatever, seeing BWO now makes you think what we could have missed out on, a 5 star campaign
