Re: OK! Let\'s Shut This Place Down!
C'mon, it took me almost four years to get the paltry post-count I have now; why start over again..?
Besides, the weird beige color scheme here has kinda grown on me.

Re: OK! Let\'s Shut This Place Down!
Yep, not moving. I might start to check in on the spaceempires5.com boards if they begin to... well, not suck. But, Shrapnel is the place to be.
And hey, I'm not leeching, I've bought other titles from them, and am thinking over a few more. But not for a while, my plate will be full of grad school, SEV, and Dom3 until the new year. Plus, we're all free advertising. We see all the other titles they have and perhaps buy them, and we bring more people to Shrapnel's site, who may also buy titles. And besides, they actually LIKE us

Re: OK! Let\'s Shut This Place Down!
I have no plans to leave either, and unless I find a compelling reason, I have no intention of joining that 'other place'.

Yes, we do. If you guys ever went away... well that would be a very sad day here at Shrapnel.
You are and always will be welcome here.

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.

Re: OK! Let\'s Shut This Place Down!
Sorry wade, I may pop in the SE5.com site now and then to see what's up, but in all reality...
Shrapnel has Chili and Boomsticks. |

Re: OK! Let\'s Shut This Place Down!
I've heard (through rumors) that SEV is gone gold.
But I heard it here, not on the "official" site which doesn't even have an up to date listing of any pertinant info on the game (release date, bugs fixed in the demo, etc).
Until that other site has more information (and a better BBS), I'll just stick here...

Not only is there a comfy sofa, Shrapnel has a kegerator.
Scoot over Narf and happy birthday.

Re: OK! Let\'s Shut This Place Down!
Only a occasional poster, so far less perspective than some of the seasoned players here. I come to this site for game advice, formulas and tips. For years, the advice and information has been good here. Since there has not a been a problem with Shrapnel, why suggest the move? So far there is nothing to suggest that the information will be better elsewhere. When there isn't an apparent reason for moving, it makes one wonder about other motives for suggesting a move.
