Really all you need is a basic walkthrough with instructions to register and post if you have any problems / questions.  When I first started lurking here, I learned the hard way.  I d'lled a ton of stuff, and banged my head against the wall until I figured out where everything went.  This place can be sort of like a maze, unless you're lucky enough to land in the right place, or brave enough to ask.  (I just like figuring things out myself... some of the time.)

I'll make this as plain as can be:

Fix the HLP home page to be like HLP2.0 was.

You won't need additional sub-forums, subways, or anything else that's likely to piss me off.

That is all.

[achtung]

Yeah 2.0 worked really well.

[jr2]

Hmm, any way of pulling up an archive of 2.0 so I can look at it?

I voted yes, because any new person who hits this forum does not know what there in for, and should ultimatly know the rules and who everyone is before making a small slip up, which ultimatly costs your reputation on this forum forever. (i am not joking  )

No, **** son.

the perfect example. 

[vyper]

No, it's a form of hazing that happens on every internet community. You get over it soon enough.

God why are all the youngster on the net today such pussies?

[Wobble73]

And Polly still wants a cracker!


 

Well someone had to say it!

i vote yes.

i came to this forum and had no clue that everyone here were all computer geeks. So the slightest mistake is frowned up on for E.G. the subtitle under my nickname, i can ask them to remove it but that would be frowned on... then attacked.

You could try actually reading the forum you're going to join before you join and instantly post. And then after that, maybe not act like a total 'tard when you join (and you still are - not all of us are "computer geeks" - you're just the fore-mentioned tard).

I vote no again, although now I notice that there's a "Yes - a banner" option. It'd be nice if maybe we could link to the "Getting Started" section in the Wiki.

DOUBLE POST!!

You can change your vote, you know...

[Unknown Target]

*Gasp!* Why, ya caught me!

*Deletes extra post*

There you go, the world is back on it's axis.

Also, that was a problem with my internet, so I didn't purposefully double post. Congrats.

Another part of my point to say no; read at least a little bit of the forum before you join and become active.

[Centrixo]

so you say no, and try and tutor me in what? forget it, useless!  .

now you see why we need this board, Unknown target just reinforced my point on computer geeks and needing a more clearer defined area for new poeple.

i wanna cracker  .

Edit: i can give a better example of a computer geek, but it will minus my popularity a bit. not that i have any anyway.

[Unknown Target]

I'm not being a computer geek, I'm thinking. Something you obviously can't do.

This is why people don't like you Centrixo, because you're an ass.

EDIT: Oh, that and dumb. An asshole and dumb.

[diceman111]

Would you two stop before this thread get locked besides if we have a banner or a new board/child-board(Not the best idea I must say) then those that think its a bad idea will just have to look away or something

[Unknown Target]

No, because if we have newbies have their own board, it further separates the community between oldies and newbies. Everyone should mingle with everyone, we shouldn't segregate the community.

[diceman111]

No, because if we have newbies have their own board, it further separates the community between oldies and newbies. Everyone should mingle with everyone, we shouldn't segregate the community.

Hence the use of a banner or something similar witch only points to a locked thread and not a new board

[karajorma]

This is why people don't like you Centrixo, because you're an ass.

EDIT: Oh, that and dumb. An asshole and dumb.

Any more of that and I'll point out to the admins that you should be banned for it. BtRL team mate or not.

[vyper]

Watch that boy shake his authoritah.

And this be the old home page: http://web.archive.org/web/20051126014605/http://www.hard-light.net/

Missing an image or two, granted...

[Dysko]

I remeber that home page... one year and a half ago... when I found this forum for the first time...
That home page really rocked!

[Polpolion]

I think that something more like a banner would be more useful

Something like this (See Attachment) and it would be linked to some thread that simply says Hi and explains a bit with of useful links and then it says that if you have anything to ask just post (not in that thread however)


/Dice

you misspelled ''click''.
