I wish I could say I think a lot of you will remember me, but it's been so long and the community members have come and gone that I don't think a lot of you will.
Anyway 3 years ago I remember creating www.halocemaps.net and www.halouniverse.org. I wanted to create them to have an alternate community, Though they did fail I had SO much fun managing them and seeing it alive for the few shorts months it was up. That may seem irrelevant, but what I'm getting to is that I've been in this community for 3-4 years and it's still running but has anything changed at all?
I'm not looking for project updates because we all know they can shut down in an instant and be forgotten about, more or less the ACTUAL game.
How have the servers been? Still packed, empty?
Is Coldsnap still being played alot? Update me guys and lastly...whats up with all the old maps on the homepage? Has it REALLY been that empty!?

Nothing has changed much. Everything has stayed just as consistant as it used to be. I still would like to meet up with you some day. Possibly this weekend?

I dunno man, you've always said I was borderline insane. I might haveta' goon on ya. Ill be on xfire tomorrow for the first time in months, hit me up

Hey Kid, hows things with you?
Not a lot has changed here, there are still some custom things coming out but 90% of things get canceled still.
As for players, there are always at least 500 players on 1.00 on weekdays and over 1000 sometimes on weekends. 1.09 has only maybe 50-100 players whenever i switch to that version.

As for the player percentage. I AM EXTREMELY pleased to hear that. Really, I thought it died. Oh and not to bring my work into everything (Well, most of it sucks lmao) but I think we should get the community together, even the kids who hate/don't know me to play

Maybe find nexus too

I was thinking of that map just yeserday.

While I recognize the name, I don't remember if I'm supposed to disapprove of it or not... Jeez it's been a while.

What's that, 3 or 4 people from '08 and before coming back within the past 2 weeks or so?

I remember a photo of you with penises growing out of your eyes and mouth that duce showed me. I also you remember that KID is a cool guy and doesn't afraid of anything.

Thanks Jesse. And wow Caboose! I've seen your name a few times around here recently and I completely forgot the 117 at the end! Good to hear from you dude. Btw- do you remember our Movie theater project (The communities) back in 07? I think I'm one of the only guys to remember that but quite a few people were here to remember it

I have a constant reminder of it, the files I had are still on my hard drive, and I keep seeing it every time I compile a scenario... Which I can't access at the moment, but that's another story...

Yea I only just recently appeared again, like 2 weeks ago, the last time I was around before that was 2 years after my join date, exactly..

Sup.

Oh hey it's you again.
Sup Kid.

Yea man lol. Is anyone taking my place as the community troll?

Expect that every time you leave.

And wb.

It's okay. I'm here now.

Always good to have another person who seems to have atleast a half-functioning brain (unlike a few unnamed souls here) give crit to my work.

I remember you. And nothing much has changed, just the usual flame war in almost every thread.

Definitely make a Christmas/'holiday' map. Do timberland or sidewinder, but with an epic tree and a Sarge Johnson running around saying "Merry Christmas" or "Christmas cancelled!"

christmas map would be a good idea,i never knew about the sledding map untill i watched the KID's youtube vid.

I feel so popular lol no really. I'm glad you guys support my ..."Work" that I've done in the past. It's cool to see people liking it despite the eh...well, quality.

Also, can I still expect to get flamed when I give HONEST crit. When someone's work looks GOOD to me, I say so. Everyone else would say "Ew it looks terrible kid he's not gonna get any better if you tell him it looks good!" Lol let me know guys

hey.
lemme brush you up with the recent news:

Rips are being abused.
Mapping teams for reach and H3 are shutting themselves down every day.
Reach map remakes are awful. (no offense to the creators)
People are too selfish to release the stuff they made for the community.
awful maps have higher ratings then good maps.
The amount of BG mods has decipeled. (x10)
some of the members do more work for newbs, like BG mods, instead of good stuff.
Did i mention rips are being abused?
A select few of the members are working on and releasing amazing stuff every now and then.
NEVER, GIVE HONEST CRIT. YOU WILL BE FLAMED BEYOND REASON. (/exageration) (but you DO get flamed for honest crit)

I never met you, but welcome back :)

Lol.

hi

Speaking of that movie theater map, why did it crash in burn do you remember? I'm curious to see if I could get that moving...

Sup wb.
even though I haven't met you before like in the past because I'm just a new member here I'm saying "hello" :D

The first powerhouse map is very good, the creator put a lot of time into it.

Lol, i suppose im just raging, even tho everything i say is proved by all the map making threads and MAKEZ THIS FOR MEHZ threads in the last 10 pages.

Appoogize, i never actually used the powerhouse, just a couple of mods of it. And i never heard anything good about it, i just heard it was awful.

But as for the rest of my posts...

People want to make Reach assets now instead of H3/H2 ones :D

Anyway KID, I remember seeing your machinimas - they were awesome.
