Re: Bring back the Hard Light forum name!
no fun zone.
yeah... :sigh:
I blame the lock-happy mods ;).

Seriously, You actually told us to have a point for the threads last time we posted a completely random one.  And then you locked it.

I dunno if you're blaming me, because if so that was clearly a different Shrike.

See, this is a good idea.  Gold star!
WE ARE HARD LIGHT PRODUCTIONS. YOU WILL LOWER YOUR FIREWALLS AND SURRENDER YOUR KEYBOARDS. WE WILL ADD YOUR INTELLECTUAL AND VERNACULAR DISTINCTIVENESS TO OUR OWN. YOUR FORUMS WILL ADAPT TO SERVICE US. RESISTANCE IS FUTILE.

Oh god, it's the Postadmin. :eek2:

* Androgeos Exeunt has snowballed voted.

Man, look at all the newbies.

Hey, damn you (although it's half-true, actually). :p

But, seriously speaking, the new slogan isn't very good. "Bringing Modders Together" is still relevant even with all the slapstick around here, so leave it as it is.

And silver doesn't fit the HLP colour scheme of Shivan maroon.

I think "We Know Drama" was only put there as a temporary joke, and it'll eventually be changed back. :)

Re: Bring back the Hard Light forum name!
I know, really.  Hard Light at the top was fine when it was actually fun, but now it's just devolved into rants and political threads.  I mean, what are the chances of a thread like this happening nowadays?
Holy ****.

Just bring back HLP 2.0

HLP 2.0 = Nuclear1 eternally happy
Hell yeah. I spent a ton of work* hours on that thing...  :hopping:

(*) Read: Actual job hours that I had nothing to do and thus devoted to working on HLP.
Probably away. Contact through email.

Oh, and who around here is old enough to actually remember Steak's and Thunder's "***" posts on the VBB?

Also, who saw the Red Faction Guerilla dev diaries and the BIG (really, huge) "FS3 - Release Date (blurred)" text on the whiteboards? Damned trolls. :p

I wonder what so many of those people are doing. Lots of friends are missing now.

Yep. Don't know if it's the version with all the forum integration and the latest bug fixes, though.
Probably away. Contact through email.

Spent plenty of time reading that stuff at work too but only after the FRED, support, and squadwar forums.  Never been a big general discussion person.   
No-one ever listens to Zathras. Quite mad, they say. It is good that Zathras does not mind. He's even grown to like it. Oh yes. -Zathras

In that case, you could convey that message to the admin who did it. :p
