I'm sure this has been brought up before now and I'm sure this thread will get closed or whatever but I believe this needs to be addressed.
Last night a thread turned up in the Maps and Mods forum containing a link to an unfinished mod. When I say unfinished I mean barely even started. The file contained illegal model hacks and other files for which the authors had not been credited. Despite the mod being incomplete credit should still have been given as it was still a release.
When this fact was brought forward to the author of the thread and mod (pfft). The reaction was far from friendly and over the course of the next hour the thread became a mass flaming session. I am not proud of this seeing as I was involved. At first I tried to keep calm about it but the author constantly missed the point of what was being said. There were a number of other members involved who I am sure will share the same opinion. This particular member has no respect for peoples opinion and as such continues to whine and moan and flame whenever constructive critisism is given. I therefore believe that he should not have the privilege of being a TWHL member.
You may have guessed that the member in question is HalfLifeDude.
This is under the impression that he is indeed still a member. I went to sleep before the thread was closed and removed and so missed the Moderator's conclusion. All I'm saying is that this guy is deliberatly making TWHL an unpleasent place where giving your opinion gets you screwed about. I am aware that things are going to change when TWHL3 arrives but until then, issues such as this still need to be addressed and dealt with.
Thanks for listening. -Urb

I love it. I would quite gladly work on a little section or 2 for that 
How about advertising TWHL? so we can have more members in our site?1. Our site? You've been here for like 6 days. (at time of writing)
2. Kraken has been a member for well over 3 years and has contributed 1 map (thats 1 more than you btw) and several helpful hints and tips and posts containing constructive critisism.
3.
You are forbidden to promote this website on any CS server.Quoted for truth
4. Your avatar blends Half-Life, the lord and master of PC first person shooters with Halo, an overhyped microsoft console mess. This makes you a devil child.
5. On Topic
Q: Advertise TWHL?
A: Sure.
You'll pay for it, yes?
Actually we just call it the London Underground. Subway is American...or sandwiches.
Truely stunning work
Screenshots 1 and 2 are fucking sexy! 
This post was made on a thread that has been deleted.

I can't wait to review this mod. 
...they're the same. 
Lets not.
If they want it they can search for it and not pointlessly bump old threads! :rly:

As for the whole idea of remaking HL2 in the HL1 engine I'd say don't bother. You would have to remake everything yourself for legal reasons and there would be far to much work involved just to take a great game and cast its technology back 7 years.
I could get that but would it be worth buying just to compile the fews models being effected by this glitch.People buy MilkShape?
I came all over your pics. Sorry.
Urb can I come live with you? I can bring my 360 for mad LAN.Heh, everybody loves urb.
Also, "plastic dagger full of jellybeans" is one of the greatest things anyones gotten so far.Actually its just a plastic dagger now...I feel quite sick
It will definatly make reviewing mods a lot more entertaining.
You can do that with Spirit which is much much better for Single Player Maps.

Now get this fucking thread back on topic.
I will stop but what did i do!!!!!! if it was the pee thing it was a joke!!!!!First off, it wasn't funny. Secondly everything you post is spam. I'll look over the annoying capital letter threads you starting seeing as one was closed and the other is actually quite popular. Its just that most of your posts are pointless or annoying (like posting nothing but smilies twice in this thread) and I cannot understand why the Moderators are letting you get away with such retarded n00bity.
Now get this fucking thread back on topic.
@Seagreen:
I will map for GoldSource until the end of time.
Oh wow, somebody ban this guy.Agreed.

I sleep about 12 hours / nightJeez thats a lot of sleep. I tend to manage about 2 - 4 hours a night before I get bored and wake up.
Select that colour and refill the area you wanted to be transparent with it, just to be sure?
You need to edit the pallette in Wally or whatever you use and make sure that the pure blue colour is also the very last colour in the pallette (number 255)
Tetsuo, this is GoldSource. Good god man. You are no Half-Life fanatic!

Kane and Lynch never looked all that good to me. PC Gamer (UK) gave it 60%. Apparently it looks dated and the gameplay is meh. I think I'll wait for the next Hitman game.
Otherwise, for XMas I want UT3 and Crysis and a PC that'll run them both.
