I recently recieved this message in one of my posts, and it got me thinking:
1. Is that really a quote from the Science and Industry forums? and
2. Why would quotes from S & I be showing up here? Did a few of the beta testers/programers/modelers hop ship from S&I over to Natural Selection? Come to think of it, that was one of the few truely creative mods created for the HL engine.
Anyway, It's nice to see that some of you might have come from that gem of a community that was S&I (you know, the 65 players we had or such). You know, sometimes, the best type of game isn't one that hits big. It's the tiny over looked ones that offer the best people and fun. On that note, if only we could kick out the whiners and let people enjoy the game as it is, even if we lost a lot of people. Just a dream of mine.

As for Science & Industry... Fun game, but it never got the updates and bugfixes it needed...
S&I stands for the suggestion and idea section of this site, not the Science and Industry fourm. As for the scorpion that hovars without flapping, well read through <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=5&t=17547' target='_blank'>this</a> famous part of NS History.

i think it's important to tell to younger generation of our history. if they forget or don't know, we don't want them to be repeating the same mistakes we made <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->
