Sweet trader of porkbellies, Devnullicus is back! My God, it's been what... four years? Jeez. Welcome back dude. [censored], it really *is* like that bit in Bab5.  
 
Have you checked out the devnullmod lately? It's been kept in good shape in your absence.  
			
		 | 
	 
	 
 Yeah, it's been a while.  I'm still around, though, and looking forward to SE5.
 
As for devnullmod, yeah, I've gone through it and I'm pretty happy with how it was maintained.  Hell, I'm just happy it was maintained at all!  Kudos to those who took up the maintenance and expansion of the mod!  (Geoschmo, Rollo, and anyone else who helped..thanks!)

		I'm still here lurking off and on though I haven't posted in a long time and I'm pretty sure most here may not remember me at all.  
 
I've been playing the SEV demo lately and will get the game when it comes out. For the modding potential if nothing else. 
 
Dom3 also looks mighty tempting to me. 
 
These are great boards here and I have a real fond spot for them and for Shrapnel.

		Ah yes, Tradewars, with the "Ferrengi" space pirates from "Ferrengal"... the things they do to (somehow successfully) avoid lawsuits   
Then there were the inevitable players with godlike trade empires but godawful names like "Dickweed" (an actual one I still remember!   ) or some sort of wacko "hacker's guild" style name with like 300 punctuation characters and special "guild markings" in several colors, along the lines of "--==([[TH3 |<i||4z]]) bobafett69 ==--"   
But yes, it was fun    Even when "Dickweed" blew up my wimpy (albeit juicy) "CargoTran 3000" in his "Imperial Death Frigate of Warp Interdiction and +10 to Stealth and Dark Resistance" or whatever it was

		I kept on getting blown up every time I got established (Planet or two.) 
 
Ruined the fun. Still remember the game fondly, just not the powerlevels.
