Halflife2.net is policing you

[Shadow lord]

[Cander]

whatever.

 

[Koldfire]

This is a PRIVATLEY RUN FORUM. they are doing the right thing here.

 

[Iconoclast]

Maybe they don't want it discussed because - wait for it - downloading it is ILLEGAL?

Those crazy fascists! Next they'll not want us to go around beating people to death with baseball bats!

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

My God.


SOME PEOPLE JUST NEED TO BE BANNED.


*hint hint*

Holy crap, they're onto us! Silence this man immediately!

I mean, come on Shadow lord, is it really that hard to understand why we don't want people discussing something as illegal as this?

 

[vetebulle]

This forum belongs to the people who run it, no one else. Their sandbox, their rules. You get to eat sand.

 

[StagedD]

In that case.... I like sand.

-StagedD.

 

[Cander]

da comrade's!


oops.

 

[Netherscourge]

I was wondering - how does HL2.net pay for the site/forum? I never see any ads anywhere (unless my goggle bar is blocking them).

With all the hits this site gets, I'm amazed there are no banner ads.

 

[Cander]

Whata about the Gameplay banner?

 

[evil.jelly]

ah the wonderful mix of forum junkies.. those who dislike authority and those who bury their nose up it's arse

Oh - missed that - of course, it's still a HL2 banner. Perhaps Valve is indirectly funding this site?

We're hosted on HomeLAN, the huge games-dedicated network of sites. We don't pay, but they get a piece of the acclaim for having the largest HL2 fanbase on the net.

 

[Netherscourge]

LOL

I clicked on that banner and it says:

50 Days Till Release

LOL

 

[Tlaloc]

oh be quiet

That's wrong! ALL WRONG!!! Only mrbadger is a communist. I dont know about the rest, but I stand for the Fundamentalistic Union of Crackpots with Kvasifuturistic dreams of Egomaniac Despotism.

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

LOL

So Valve is an "associate" of Homelan... what exactly does that entail?

(I know money is involved somewhere, so I'm gonna keep snooping until I find the connection )

Maybe they simply host servers with HL/CS/whatever? Valve are the creators after all

Are you refering to my post?! I was serious!!!!! There are MANY F.U.C.K.E.D. members*!


(minus one, a certain oddball named Bin Laden recently got expelled, he was hogging the pretzels on all meetings)

 

[mallet]

lol @ "commies"

This site is an example of freedom of speech (they choose what they want to appear on here), and acting to protect a commercial company - that's hardly indicitive of Communism is it?

Are you ten years old? Moron.

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

heheh


I just love the acronym. I think I was the only one who noticed that part lol

Cool, so all of you paid the money for a legal copy of Windows? I didn't think so. :dozey:

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

Do you think they allow talk of how to get pirated windows on the microsoft forums. NO. SO SHUT UP AND GO AWAY

But where's the chat of people talking about where to find hacks for windows, discussiong how cool hacking windows is and exchanging download locations?

Oh wait a minute, there isn't any.

Right. It's common knowledge as the HL2 leak info will be after some time.

 

[marksmanHL2 :)]

Only if sites like ours decide to make it allowed. Dumbass

 

[Mcn@sty]

You mod bitches put up with WAY 2 much shit I think...

 

[D33]

We know it's common knowledge, we also know it's common knowledge that people are semi-playing the game. We've posted about it on our news.

However, what does that have to do with us not wanting people to discuss the beta on our forums?

 

[Viper118]

Yeah, people speaking their bind is truly a bunch of shit. Why would we want that?

Rules override speaking your mind. deal with it.

 

[cpu killer]

Hehe, yo man, i understand the site putting up policies against desicussing the illegal demo of the game, heck man, valve doesnt wanna loose money, if someones making em loose money, theyll chase em down and eat em...

Its normal for a LEGITIMATE community not to discuss illegal stuff, and US law says its illegal man, will u just go out and kill a dozen people in public? No, the police will have you..
Really, i can understand them having these rules here, i mean i was at AoMH community when i playtested (legally) the Age Of Mythology alpha test, they had an NDA, so as much as i wanted to talk my ass off about it, and post screenies for people, i couldnt man..
The law works that way, now if, i u DO and MUST discuss illegal HL2, than go to illegal forums man! I know I do, i can talk about the legit stuff here , than port out to [better not state link...] and discuss all the illegal hacks and where i can download it..

Just get over it man, this is a legal community, they are NOT gonna let you discuss illegal stuff, if u want to, go somewhere else.

Thank goodness. I wish they would police a bit more quite frankly. Then maybe some of the more annoying posters would leave. Maybe you will. Please.

 

[silent]

Threads like this are better than TV!

 

[Tlaloc]

I'm assuming you know drama

 

[TrueWeltall]

The only sad thing ive seen halflife2.net do is have its moderators ask for missing beta files they needed to play. Im surprised they are still mods too.

 

[silent]

What can i say... I am a coniseur of drama goodness
