    Wow seeing the kind of posts that poeple who support smart_bomb make really makes me change my mind about his validity.

    Now who can figure out if sarcasm tags go there or not?

    edit: and since you're reading this smart I'll let you know that most people know you are just trying to save face by comming back because you've gotten an insane amount of spam on your e-mail and site, and it's a fairly transparent attempt at saving grace.

    See the thing about posting a topic with absolutely no point is people can say absolutely anything they want in it, and including calling you on attempts to make yourself look less idiotic.

    The first post isn't even based on facts. You said people were asking you about you're hovaring scorpian mod when all they were doing was spamming your site with insults and jokes. We've seen you're guestbook and me and several other people have e-mailed you and it's far from fan mail.

    I wish you guys would leave him alone. I know that the post was one of the BEST post-release n00b S&I threads, so much that it was worthy of being an example of what not to post, <b>*but*</b> as much fun as it seems you guys are having with the poor guy, I think it would be in NS's best interest to forgive&forget, put the harping level down to that of what we do with SBV (the occaisonal reminder of his past, but in a friendly way, not this malicious insulting the whole time.)

    I really see an awful trend in the community here, and the more flamey you guys get, the less fun it is to read&post here. Go reread the forum FAQs. I've disobeyed a few of the rules myself (I used S*** instead of picking a new word, which is swear-filter dodging), and I've flamed people before (read: F4 debate), but personally attacking and continuously insulting someone? That's low, even for [insert your most disliked HL mod]-players, that's low.

    This is kinda funny, if you want to be known as the guy who hovars without flapping or something, then why does that symbolise the guy that was flaming you, shooting you?

    is it just me or does s_b seem .... different .... no offence smart_bomb but most of the time you can determine the writer of a post just by looking at it .... style-like .... two theories:
    a) it has been a long time hasnt it?
    b) somebody's been guessing at his password .... somebody got lucky

    Good post, and I agree totally. So SB made a suggestion which has been ridiculed for months, and it's quite possible he <i>was</i> serious when he posted it. But remember that this is <i>present day</i>, and not seven months ago.

    I can certainly respect the fact that SB is taking his unexpected fame (and flame) in good fun. Sure, we've all been joking about the "hovaring scorpians" since the original post. But just because SB wants to have a laugh at it now too, why does that appear to imply that you should all join forces to prevent him from doing so?

    Lol you should get a server, it would always be full. You could get some talented members and actually be on top of the leagues.

    (ps. WHY DONT THE ADMINS LET SMART BOMB BE A PLAYTESTER? HE COULD THINK OF LOTS OF THINGS FOR THE 1.1 BUILD TO MAKE IT BALANCED.)
