For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences.

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

THIS ****ING SUCKS. When is the maintenance going to end - or better yet, has it ended and I've been left ashore? :(

I swear revenge and postnuclear apocalypse to Gamespy if this does not end.


Actually I have same proplem when using home computer but my work computer connects fine to HLP it's strange

Still down and slow for me. This has now lasted over 24 hours.

BEST MAINTENANCE EVER!

Edit: still down, page loading 2+ minutes. Seeing as this continues, I think I'll leave HLP at least for a while. It's really ****ing irritating trying to browse the forums, and the main page does not work either. What really pisses me off is that just when many projects I anticipated so much were closer to completion and SCP was getting a lot of new fine improvements (Turambar, LS, DaBrain and many others), the retarded little wombat ****s who rape their mothers all night long at Gamespy somehow manage to **** up the entire system, leaving apparently quite a few users on the shore. I try to drop by now and then, but as it takes over 10 minutes to post a reply... :sigh:

However, seeing as the FS2 SCP main site sucks cocks and all community activity is resided in here, I would approve if someone would drop a post at VWBB (dead) or my email as must releases (Inferno R2/RR1, new Media VP + addons, stable builds etc), so I can pick them up.

Well, it usually happens once a month.

Unless you're just going into puberty. :nervous:

Or you just had a baby... :shaking:

I'm bumping this one cause I've been chatting with CannonFodder and he's been saying that since GS did their maintenence he can't post on HLP and reading anything moves very slowly

Apparently though the Wiki works for him (Which I have no idea how to explain since they seem to be on the same server)

I still have no problems whatsoever. What type of connection is CF running? Tell him to keep trying, and maybe check other GS sites while he's at it to see if they're behaving the same. :)
