This is a pretty great rumour seeing as we're hosted for free with Speakeasy. The webserver is having some pretty serious stability issues that the support guys are working on. The site should be back within a few hours/decades.

Yeah, definitely. My post had nothing to do with what to do in practice on HL2.net (or Fallout, or anywhere). If you want to read the review, buy the magazine! But my argument concerns the point of law. The law is an interest for me (as it is for Icarus) -- hence the debate. 1. In which...

I apologize if MrChimp's comment seemed to be directed at hl2.net in any way. How you handle this sort of thing is completely up to you, of course. :) Actually, the law is pretty unclear at the moment. If anything, the case law suggests that you probably wouldn't be held as a contributory...

If we're going to talk definitions, let me share my own horribly biased opinion :) Take a closer look at what evolution actually means. The graphical improvements covered here actually fit the definition closer than "new features". Then again, there's no need to be reading too much into what...

Copying and pasting news posts is a cool trick.

The reason why the post's integrity was not questioned immediately is because every post up till then was legitimate. When Gabe first signed up I made sure we got proper confirmation before calling his account official. Since then, I've made periodic checks of the account's posts to assure...

Our server is having a horrible time under the load so I'll repost the explanation here...

Yeah it's real. As said, it's the same one as was seen in a PC Powerplay recently. For those wondering about the source of this ... Valve e-mailed it to hl2fallout forum member target_practice who posted it on the forums earlier today (http://www.hl2fallout.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=4053&st=0).

As sure as we can be. His ip matches the "Gabe Newell" account on these forums and he sent a confirmation email from [email protected]

I know what you're saying, but this isn't a general staff request. It's a mod-specific position - and this seemed like a good place to ask.

Another HL2 forum Hi, Mr Bond from nowhere in particular here. We're on the look out for someone to help manage our mod coverage on the site. The person should be involved in the HL2 mod community - having a good knowledge of mods in progress, the SDK and general modding skills. Here isn't...

You can tell pretty easily that they're the same gun looking at the inventory HUD.

Where's the bunch of other sites? All I see is some guy who used the table layout for his personal site. And whether you physically "edited" it is irrelevant: the differences are minimal. The courteous thing to do would have been to leave some sort of credit. But it's a moot point; I don't...

You resized a couple of tables, deleted the menu headers and cropped the logo. And then removed any mention of credit I requested. The difference between the layouts is about 5 minutes work. Don't get me wrong I don't care about the credit (otherwise I would have talked to you about it) but...

I find this ironic considering you made a few minimal changes to my layout and then removed the credit I had requested. It's not like you're some saint of original site designs here. Cut the dude some slack.
