You just say that because you can't see it...

Let me put it this way. It is those who visit HLP and these Forums that make what HLP is today. As long as we are around it will take a long time before HLP vanishes.

How long will HLP last?

I give it a week......maybe two.

Funny... oh wait it isn't

Depending on where the VBB trolls migrate to, HLP could be entering a very dark time in the next few weeks/days/hours.

Nah, we have a fair setup here - it's worked so far and I'm confident that it'll continue to work for us in the future.

Because you have a fetish for locking threads and warning that you will lock threads

No ship will protect you from the nail side of the thumb

And I see your point, but I've tried to cut back on thread locking lately - and yes if people come here and flame or spam or mis-use the forums then I'll lock the threads, I don't particularly care about my personal image so long as the majority of the HLP community is happy with the way the forums are run. And since your all here I guess you are

Besides, I'm not the only moderator around here... I mean technically I shouldn't even be doing anything right now but it's the holidays so I get a little free time.

I like the fact spam topics are locked so quickly, it keeps this a tidy place with friendly people.

Well, some of the spam actually lasts... it's the FLAME topics that are closed in an eyeblink. And that's good.

HLP should last a good... forevar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is, if we continue covering new games, finding new games - we'll keep on. And don't forget the renders, unless digital art goes extinct (

) we'll have plenty of that...

an0n · **Reply #35 on:** April 11, 2002, 01:11:59 pm

HLP will be around for ages, but I doubt it will always be a FS orientated place.

Now, we just need a render: HLP, forev4r!

All the above stuff is right IMO, and as far as some spam topics staying open... that's true - but there's much more "good" topics than there are "pure" spam topics so it balances out ok.

If we do find another game..Independence War 2 was nice but not quite the FreeSpace 2 killer it could've been. The physics and stuff make it a bit less accessible, it's more of a "niche" game.

I know... as someone (mikhael, I guess) already said, the signal to noise ratio is a good way into the green.
