Ironically it's picked up marginally this new year, but the long term trend does appear to be downwards.

I think that might explain the rash of posting in the "something worrying" thread. It's something new in this forum, a topic that we haven't gone over recently (ever?)

Compare that to almost every aspect of SE:IV, they have been talked over to death and now we're into repetition.

No we're not.

No we're not.

Whenever im here, i feel like THIS is community. A bunch of "hardcore"-guys who are still sharing their thoughts and sticking together, even though the boards-main-reason-of-existence (SEIV) is still burned out.
I think most of us, who are still here, are geeks, to some extend at least. This makes me feel confident (?).

And im glad there are no 14 year old cs-fanboys here as well. At least i hope so.

Zwuh? Burned out?

Say, have you seen my latest; Carrier Battles mod?

Its gotta be one of the simplest mods around, in terms of "number of things", but it is probably the most complex in action on PBW.

Re: This Forum
 

I completly agree with the guys saying that this forum will skyrocket when SEV comes out. I mean if you really pay attention to who posts regularly, many of the new posters here asted something like a month and then dropped out, while the rest of us are just rediscussing old strategies and stuff like that. I really think that this forum won't die.

On a more happier note, if it were'nt for this forum, I would never have discovered Schlock Mercenary and the joy of online Comics.

Well, said "burned out", because, basicly, SEIV IS burned out. If it wouldnt, there would be far more posters here. There would be more mods in general, AND i feel like action on pbw is decreasing steadily within the last months. Im not saying there are no people playing it anymore, but interest is falling with every other day, unless its winter holiday season that is http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

I'd post more often if I could get my old user name restored. I've PMd Richard about it but no reply.

Without the user name one has established over a period of years, people don't recognize you and you don't really feel like a part of the community anymore.

Everybody knows "Atrocities" and "Suicide Junkie." How would you guys feel if you lost your password or changed your email and had to adopt the user names "Jimmy" and "Bugs" in order to post here?

Ah! So that's who you are! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: This Forum
 

You could always set your name to "Antonin_", say.

I had the same problem as you. At some point years ago, the forum choked on my name during an update or something. Probably didn't like the space in my login.

So I'm currently under a very slightly different login.
The display name is independent of your login name, BTW.

Try changing it in your personal settings.
