very nice.  those people all deserve recognition, but Setekh deserves recognition for "community" because, well, it was him and Thunder (from what i heard) that STARTED hard light productions, and he was as involved in the community IF NOT MORE than Thunder.

I think Thunder and Setekh deserve 'community' recognition!

Thunder (or Shrike, or whoever)... what costs were originally incurred in HLP and have been since it opened?  like the vB license...

well Thunder and Setekh saved the comunity with HLP, but they wern't the founders, before HLP there was planet freespace (later named freespace watch) and Decent Cronicles (later merged with FSW to form VW)
all those mentioned by Zarathud are the founders

Dark, Bobboau, Thunder, Shrike, Setekh, Venom, Aldo, IceFire, Kazan. Possibly Eternal One, Tomcat, Max Sterling, and Rampage. These would be my nominations.

[Nico]

The sheer volume of models he's put into The Babylon Project.

Ahh, the days when the VBB was up and full of new and usefull freespace stuff.

[Ace]

Definately Plasma belongs up on that list. James Moores (IceWolf I think was the callsign he went by) though deserves a bit for being one of the first major pieces of Fan Fiction despite my not being a fan of his portrayal of the Shivans.

Wildwolf of course should be up there as someone who "ascended"

[Stormwaltz]

So far as I know, John Hanton was the first non-V modder ever. Back before the tables were even decoded, he was tweaking the performance of ships.

I forget was his nickname was, though, so maybe he's already been mentioned. ^_^

[Galemp]

Just thinking about my contribution to the community, that's all. Certainly not up to the likes of Dark or Aldo, but just a badly needed piece of work that's influenced nearly every campaign that has come along since its completion. Yes, the Freespace Port, undisputedly the pinnacle of...
*is smothered*
