The other Freespace communities?
on: April 07, 2005, 06:06:41 pm
I was bored, and decided to check out the other Fs2 communities. After I accomplished this, I developed a new sense of pride for HLP, and have totally forgiven the admins for the April Fool's joke.

Was Penguinbomb always such a big ol' dirtclod? Sheesh, it makes HLP look productive. That place is a load of crud, IMHO.

Anyways, other than the main Freespace communities, are there any other smaller communities out there?

Glad you like it here :)

I believe there's a Russian community out there somewhere but I'm not entirely sure... this place is certainly the last large bastion of FS activity on the internet. I honestly wish it wasn't so (and fondly remember the days of FSW, Ross 128 and a couple of others whos names escape me..).

And this time warp is really getting on my nerves.

Thanks. We value feedback from 14 year olds so much. :)

Aw, I feel the love.

Anyway, it seems like Game Warden may be taking the stage as a major Freespace community outpost (about a dozen projects hosted; mine included ;) ).
Spoon - I stand in awe by your flawless fredding. Truely, never before have I witnessed such magnificant display of beamz.
Axem -  I don't know what I'll do with my life now. Maybe I'll become a Nun, or take up Macrame. But where ever I go... I will remember you!
Axem - Sorry to post again when I said I was leaving for good, but something was nagging me. I don't want to say it in a way that shames the campaign but I think we can all agree it is actually.. incomplete. It is missing... Voice Acting.
Quanto - I for one would love to lend my beautiful singing voice into this wholesome project.
Nuclear1 - I want a duet.
AndrewofDoom - Make it a trio!

How old might you be? 14 year olds FRED. And mod. And could probably host a better forum than the poor sap that hosts penguinbomb.

Yup, it sure is. Especially now that we've lost all hosted projects for the time being at HLP.

Game Warden is my second favorite lurking zone. :yes:

NW is actually pretty good place. Random as hell and not much gets done, but in terms of actual forums, they're pretty well run.
Wash: This landing's gonna get pretty interesting.
Mal: Define "interesting".
Wash: *shrug* "Oh God, oh God, we're all gonna die"?
Mal: This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight turbulence and then... explode.

It's actually more of a rumour that an0n is a despotic admin. No one's been banned there that wasn't a bot in a while.

[color=66ff00]an0n may have been banned from here but he could be both helpful and quite interesting, he freely gives his time and resources to various FS related projects.

Just because he was banned does not make it acceptable to badmouth him.

I quite like Nodewars, mainly for the sense of humour in there. Not much happens in there, but since An0n pays for his hosting himself, it's his choice to keep it open to those that want to go and a question of choice for those that don't.

Ehh. I don't really care. Seems I gained power at every other forum when I lost it there.  

I'm a mod here, and at GW, and an admin at GTD. :p  I have my hands pretty full now. :)
