1. Not everyone wants to post, even though they are pretty active followers of HLP. Some people just go and grab the latest SCP toys and leave.
2. People register just for the hell of it.
3. omg n00b wth
4. Some people register here to make something stupid, then figure out the errors of their ways and leave. Never coming back. The Mystery People. We tremble in fear.

We don't flame people here anyway. We offer them to our neighbourly Shivan Carl, or we fry them by way of beam. We never flame :p

I'm a single figures poster on several other boards. I search, join, ask the question, and never post again because I'm generally not all that interested in the subject of the board I've signed up for, I just need help with one specific issue or another. Some boards even make you join to search, which is just annoying.

Well, you'll know if you don't have any food with when you encounter him in one of the numerous dark corridors in the HLP forums....

Aye.

Example: I joined AVault a month ago, only to call Derek Smart a homo for two or so posts. Don't really have any other interest in the place other than that.

I salute you!

And sometimes I sign up for forums and never get around to posting anything. But not very often. Keep in mind it is free, so what's the harm?

I've had fantasies about registering at the Steam forums and spamming the boards with threads about how Steam sucks various farm animals.

Trust me: Never join any forums on computer hardware unless you just want to ask a question.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

me thinks UT is right, but instead get rid of users who haven't been to HLP within year or so and have a 0 post count.

Do you know how hard it is :rolleyes: to look for someone in the members section, I've got to go through 2 pages sometimes, can you believe that.

Blue Lion, although Steam is not the worst disaster ever to plague a game, it leaves a lot to be desired. It has more patches than a Derek Smart game, and it just generally adds an unnecessary level of complication to the games.

It's memory footprint is far too large for what it does.
Its just a pain in the ass to have to start up one program just to start another one. Particularly one that wont let you launch the game if it can't connect to the internet, and takes bloody ages to launch.

Yeah, I've been wondering about that. I have Half-Life on this computer because I downloaded it through Steam, but I want to install it on another computer that doesn't have an internet connection, and I was wondering if that was possible. Their FAQ section doesn't quite answer that.

Quote:(I'm looking thru the forum member list, by date joined, and I'm seeing tons of new people...but 99% haven't even had one post....why register if you don't post at all?)

Why should you care? Having alot of members does not hurt anyone. I for one don't post anything but I get alot of interesting information from this site; like doing searches on the forms for any questions I need answering. Just because someone does not post it doesn't mean that they aren't happy to be a memeber. Maybe people like myself like to support this site. Anyways that's my view. Maybe I'll post something one day- maybe not. Regards.
