Just a double post. But it won't go away. I call this a sticky post.

I'd consider going there, in exchange for the answers to the first three trivia questions.
Or even better, make se1 available for download there as part of space empires month.

I for one plan to visit both sites regularly, with a frequency depending on relative post volume. Currently I'm visiting Shrapnel daily and Strategy First weekly, on average. The only good reason I can think of to stop visiting here would be having insufficient time to follow multiple forums.

As far as BBS software goes, IMO UBB is the least bad commonly used software among the forums I've visited. The only Web interface I don't dislike was custom-coded by that site's Webmistress, but is reputedly a bear to maintain, and my preference for it seems to be a minority opinion among the regulars there.

It is unlikely that I'll check any other SE forums or sites on a regular basis apart from this one.

Perhaps a split between SE4 and SE5 would be good, though. SE4 topics seem to get drowned pretty fast. And I don't really think there'll be less discussion once the full version of SE5 is out.

lol, we should put together some mac vs. pc style ads based on this thread.

Oh man, I absolutely detest those ads. [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Envy.gif[/img]


I have no plans to cease my activities here. First off, I'm actually somewhat known here, and in turn know many of the people here. I've visited many other forums, usually just a couple times, and I have never found one yet that can match the sheer amount of knowledge, maturity and dedication that the people who come here display on a day to day basis. No one denegrates newcomers to the game or forum, everyone is eager to share knowledge, and even the occasional instance where conversations become heated, people refrain from attacking others.

I don't want to leave, and I will not be leaving until this forum is eventually closed down, or until I die of old age. Hopefully the latter, since that shouldn't be for another 60-70 years!!

Plus, it's taken me almost 3 years to build up the post count I have! Can't have that be all for nought.

Friends! Americans! Countrymen! Lend me your ears!
Everyone go on over to the Official site www.spaceempires5.com and contribute your minds. It's time for a change. We have our own home now. You no longer have to be that brother in law sleeping on the couch, eating all the food, and drinking all the soda or beer.

Come! See the many qualities of our new home. Sure!, there are improvements that need to be done. In due time! Come lend your suggestions! Get in early into the Space Empires Universe.

I can not make you leave. But let it be known that the powers that own this place do not have to come down here to evict you. They can simply, and very effectively, bombard you from orbit! You will have no way to fight them!

Come home to your new place. We welcome you all with open arms.

Anybody got a rope? I know where there's a mighty tall tree...

Im not going. I like it here, I like the community, I like Shrapnel, I like the other games they produce, I like seeing advertisements for their new games and every-so-often buying one when it comes out.

And you know what, I dont think I'm going to be evicted. Because this forum drives traffic and I'm not the only one who buys other Shrapnel games. Oh, and we self moderate.

Other forums, wither they are hosted by SFI, Fyron, or Aaron's dog, dont really thrill me. But by all means, go be a factious splitter. Go off and form the SE5 Peoples Front. Or the Peoples Front of SE5. Or whatever you're calling it this week. Splitter.

Speaking of other Shrapnel games, is the new ATF game not being published through Shrap? I saw a preview on Tacticular Cancer, and theres a beta-demo out on the developers site, but I dont see any mention of it here on Shrap.

Staying here, lurking there.

Home is where the fans are.. (looks around to see all the familliar faces) Yup, this is Home sweet Home.

Don't try to make me move into the toolshed, I'll hide in the basement first. hmmm, or maybe the Attic, I always liked Attics.

Cheers!

P.S. Not just 'Fans' but 'Friends' too.
