<div class="IPBDescription">Just want to get some stuff off me chest</div>I just wanted to say that, this community is the best community I've ever seen. Everyone is so mature and constructive. My Ex-boyfriend should take a lesson from you guys

Flayra, I've never seen an Administrator who is as easy going and cool as you. I've seen other people try to make non-profit entertainment stuff from other Mod scenes, only to get flamed horribly.(Myself included: I wanted to make a Desert Crisis themed Pencil and Paper RPG, but only to recieve massive warnings and "Dont do it or else" statements) But when that guy wanted to ask you if he could make an NS pinball game, you were compeletly cool about it. That is soo cool

No, Im not saying this because I want to be a tester or because I want the game to be finished quickly. Im sure you have enough testers, and I hope that you take your time in presenting us with the best possible game you can give. Rather, I just really really want to express my Joy in knowing that there are good, nerdy, caring guys in this world. You should really strut your stuff guys, you'd be suprised at how many good, nerdy, caring girls there are <!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo-->

    lol

    Well, welcome to the forums.  I'll forgo the whole 'read the faq' bit because it seems you know what your doing and what Ns is about.

    This community is quite frankly, the best I've ever seen.  Period.  I just hope that in time, Flayra continues to visit these forums and keep everyone on track.  There have been a few people that have tried (at least it seems to me, having no logic in their posts and whatnot) to ruin it.

    But, I digress ...

    Again, welcome to the forums - see ya in the servers.

    People can say what they want (I'm thinking especially girls in this matter) that girls like video games and are very common. My experience tells me that not many girls have the courage or even the guts to openly admitt they play games such as CS/NS/tribes2/starcraft etc etc.

    The people here are just such people, they care not what others think or say, they do this for themselves and for the sake of having fun. All of the people I've seen in here are such people like you Deadlocke666, that stand out and add each and every little piece to this forum.


    The forum itself is not the good stuff, it's the people in it.

    Well its about time we got a female in here!

    Welcome to the mod, be sure to read the FAQs (especially the General Forum FAQ) as they'll tell you all -kinds- of things that you really should know.

    And yeah, the community is great, but thats 'cause Bob keeps 'em all in line, ain't that right Bob?

    Bob? Oops, he's gotten loose again. Stay 'way from dark corners Deadlocke. Bob was supposed to be fed in five minutes.

    I haven't been on any forums besides one small one for the eggdrop team (a mirc bot for those who didn't know, usually hosted on a unix/linux shell account), so I can't really compare this community to other similar ones. Though I'm still curious of <i>what</i> makes this community so great. Anyone who wants to try to give a good answer to that? <img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0">
  • realityisdeadrealityisdead Employed by Raven Software after making ns_nothing Join Date: 2002-01-26 Member: 94Members, NS1 Playtester, Contributor
    Well... It was the intent of the NS team to create a helpful and mature community from the start. Not entirely sure how they managed to pull that one off, but I'm sure glad they did. Nowadays though, I think that -while the moderators do a great job of deleting bad content- it's mostly a "set-by-example" deal. In other words, if a usually immature and obnoxious person takes a look at the forum, and reads around a bit... he's all but intimidated by the set maturity level. And doesn't even bother posting, knowing that he'll just make himself look bad, rather than have some sort of impact. That is what llamas want, right? Attention?

    Either that, or he decides to take after the rest of the community and act maturely. That, I like.

    That said though, without the original "forming" of a mature community by Flayra and Co, and the very strict and observative moderators... it probably wouldn't have turned out this way. So ub3r thanks to them. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->

    Well hello there <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo-->  Yeah, I think this community is one of the best out there.  It's got something to do with the professionalism of the mod attracting people who are old and mature enough to realize just how much talent and effort goes into it, and the fact that the dev team and moderators have shown quite a few times that they will take action against people who are abusive, annoying, or just plain lame.  Anyway, hope you enjoy your stay, you shouldn't be waiting <i>too</i> much longer.

    Yes yes, welcome welcome. Have a nice stay.

    Be sure to visit #naturalselection on Gamesnet IRC (PM me if you need more information or help) for a friendly chat. Its even more fun than these forums.

    Bob eats the ropes. He finds them tasty. Kinda like spahgetti. And you'll have to hop in the regen chamber for that arm of yours. Bob sorta swollowed most of the important parts.

    And on the topic of RPGs (just to drag is -way- off topic) WoD r0xx0rz j00. Though D&D is ok too.

    Anyhow I must agree this is one of the more respectful communities I have seen. I sure hope it doesnt change when this mod goes public. I have seen it too many times where once a mod/game is released the community goes down the toilet with the flood of mad, angery, and fusterated gamers who expect to know how to play a mod/game without RTFM first. <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->
