Hell yeah.

Ephili, I wish I had your passion. You'd do a hell of a lot more work with my ideas (for campaigns, I mean) than I would. I know I wish I contributed to HLP a lot more, but I'm too lazy and unmotivated to work on anything original.

Hope you get your chance soon, bud. ;)

As for what you said about HLP, I really have to agree. We got some really logical and hard-working people on here. I know it's probably the most mature forum I've ever been on. I just wish I knew about it after PXO shut down; i've only been here for almost 2 years (which seriously feels like a very, very short time).
Fun while it lasted.

Then bitter.

I feel guilty for not contributing much, if anything, at all to the community.


Playtest!

There are plenty of things the average member can do even if they don't have any modding ability. Playtesting is one of the biggies. Occasionally I've even seen missions posted and no one has tested them at all. Not just in the Academy but also in the missions and campaigns forum.

All you have to do is play the mission and give your opinion on what worked and what didn't. It's not hard and it is very useful.

 
There are other things like wiki editing, etc you can also do.


Now I'm not saying you have to contribute back to HLP in any way other than posting. It's not an obligation. But if you're feeling you want to but don't have the modding skills needed to give back in that way there are plenty of other ways you can help. :)

I don't post too much, tho I want to. Its mainly a 'shyness' because of my first few posts here. It was about FS3 and to take action, and instead of channeling my enthusiasm I was horribly flamed and charred on a grill.


Sorry Chari, but this is just too funny.

His first post.

Think I might start playtesting some missions as well.

I swear my spelling was not that bad. All that pirate talk and crap must have messed it up a bit.

Yeah its funny to read but, we needed to do something before the mulitplayer completely died out. How did no one else see that?

Anyways.

BTW, I have always said Volution instead of ...what, Volition? Even if i spell it correctly i say volUtion.

I hate doing tech support, I remember this time when I needed to get some woman to reboot her pc, but she kept shuting down the monitor...

I spend 5 minutes talking with her untill I figured out what was she doing wrong  :hopping:
