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!)

Re: OT: The old faces are returning!
 

We are exploring the possibilities. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: OT: The old faces are returning!
 

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.

Re: OT: The old faces are returning!
 

wow, seeing all these names is really a trip. I keep expecting to see one of the old jokers from a TradeWars game pop up... Ah, those halcyon days...

Re: OT: The old faces are returning!
 

Wow, TradeWars. Crap. Started at TW 200, myself.

Re: OT: The old faces are returning!
 

Ah yes, Tradewars, with the "Ferrengi" space pirates from "Ferrengal"... the things they do to (somehow successfully) avoid lawsuits http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif
Then there were the inevitable players with godlike trade empires but godawful names like "Dickweed" (an actual one I still remember! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/eek.gif) 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 ==--" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif
But yes, it was fun http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif 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 http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Re: OT: The old faces are returning!
 

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.
