in NS General Discussion
I would like to make a post today (the day before we all explode on the NS release) to thank the message board/irc community for the past year I have been here, its been a great experience thus far and I have met alot of intresting and new people over this time. It feels kinda weird that NS is finnaly going to be released, and of course its very exciting.

I dont know how much I have actually helped the mod develop or if I even helped at all, but im glad I could show my support to such a great team.

Ahh the memories, I might have not of ever been on a personal level with the team but I've had some good memories of this place. I remember coloring my still prestent avatar (very horribly before I  knew about PSP I might add) because there was no official released colored concept art. I remember the first few models coming in and how exciting they where. I remember PTing being announced (heh my ongoing joke over the last week in IRC is, ohh no I only have 5 - days to get into pt&#33<!--emo&;)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'><!--endemo--> I remember my Marine spoof art with a TIE (this was when the marine models had no coverings on the neck) I remember pyro wolfs comics, those where down right hillarious, I remember people coming and going.

I dont know another community that has captured my imagination for this long (or even could), and its not even released yet!

Not much to say except, GG pre ver 1 community, it might be the end for that, but its just the beginning of ns.

<b>GG everybody <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo--></b>

If anyone wishes to stay in contact with me I will be going uner the alias [ReD]Fade on IRC and in the game.

Special thanks to the board admins who have kept this place so clean you could eat off of it.

    I want to say this to flay: I've been here and this is what I think, even if somehow the mod is crap, thanks for getting us all riled up about it, half the fun is the wait.
    P.S.  B.O.B. the alien, you mispelled molecular in you sig, you spelled it moleculat, and I miss Pyro too, funny stuff.

    Although I've only been an active forum goes for 2 months I have been watching this mod since january, I found it by a fluke in a complete mod database. I was looking for a singleplayer game and I saw naturalselection on the list, heh when I went to check it out I was surprised but not disapointed at all when I found out it was multiplayer.

    I have deeply enjoyed my time here at the forums and feel apart of a large community. Although I will not be posting as much as I used to, I will still be sharing my views and opionions at school (when I can't play NS) and I will continue posting Artwork, Fan Fic, and what not as it comes.

    I'm just glad that I can tell people I was there since Jannuary 2002.

    Good times guys, time to live...
