    Its not just you... At first I thought it was merged with another one, or phased to a different forum, but I can't find it.

    It was there and MonsE pwned it. But, as far as you know, it doesn't exist and was all just a big hoax to trick you into buying McGriddles and eating them over Flayra's pants to get crumbs all over them.

    By the way. 10 bucks says it's in the moderator forum.

    I understand that if people knew for a fact it was leaked, then there is just more trying to get ahold of it, but seeing as how almost every site on the net is waffling on about it.... I dont see much point in Nuking the thread discussing it <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    My guess is that people were getting all uppity about nothing, and sucking up forum bandwidth and stuff by viewing it obscene ammounts of times.

    In IRC last night we pretty much decided it was a hoax, but meh. As long as they change the CD-Key system to kill myg0tters, I'm down with it.

    Yup, which sucks. Because the commoner's find the info, create the topic, and discuss it to 9 pages within a night... we can't enjoy our own topic.

    You do know that Valve has complete control over HL2's multiplayer right? So if a myg0t comes along and cheats on a HL2 server, the admins can ban him, send evidence to valve, and valve will put his CD-Key on the Perm-Ban list, and I'm sure they'll track IPs.

    yay! 11 people trolling my thread! a record!


    So yeah....very bad for HL2 to be leaked (or at least the partial source)

    Probably best to lock this now else it will simply be deleted, although i feel something needs to be here on the forums as a "DO NOT POST ABOUT HL2 LEAK" note rather than just have people (who are honesty ignorant to the fact that they aren't the first posting it) posting the same thing every time one gets deleted...
  • SanchoSancho Join Date: 2002-03-30 Member: 365Members
    Well I'm not downloading it. If it were ready for playing, it would have already been released.
  • CommunistWithAGunCommunistWithAGun Local Propaganda Guy Join Date: 2003-04-30 Member: 15953Members
    I wont discuss it when we have a good reason not to. Its even in the right forum.

    Why not talk about it? It's hella interesting seeing other's thoughts on it and what'll happen since it's been released.

    Yeah, I can't understand why it was nuked. We were discussing it intelligently, everyone was behaving, no links to the actual source were being posted... ah well <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I know for a fact when i started reading about it, and hearing how readily available it was, i was tempted to download it, and i'm sure i'm not alone in saying that. And that's the point exactly, the more publicity it gets the more widespread it'll become. Do not encourage either this hoax or this grossly illegal act.

    I suggest that we all just drop it, yes the thread was there, now it's gone. And i might just remind you guys that there is a rule against starting threads about closed or deleted posts....

    Whats the point of an off topic forum if you can't have any good threads on it. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Yeah, I'd want it, if I know anything about coding and had the HD space to waste.
  • dr_ddr_d Join Date: 2003-03-28 Member: 14979Members
    The point is it's not a good thread, every person that reads this thread, and says "Oh I didn't know HL2 source code was linked, I'm going to go google for it" is just adding to the reason for not having it on the forums.
