View Full Version : Hello everyone

It was sad to read the announcement of the cancellation of B5:ItF. But the sadder thing was that with that announcement I find out that the game I was mostly expecting about 2 years ago had never actually cancelled. That is untill now.
I can remember it clearly, the tries I made to download a trailer from a net cafe with a 56k modem from the Sierra site. Everyday I checked the news, untill one day, the top news was that the game was cancelled. The anger I felt that moment is indescribable.
Then for the next 1,5 years I never seek any B5 news, dissapointed by Sierra. I thought it would never got publiced. I was misleaded.
I saw yesterday the Twilight topic, and realised how unlucky I was, to never see your BB before.
I come from the community of a game I believe most of you know, Freespace. I hope this board, this community won't end up like the FS community, because of the announcement of no new Freespace, a dieying community.
(I apologize for the length of my post)

Its only a dying community if you hang around on the VBB. Our Volition Watch forums and the HardLight Production forums are very much alive and kicking. It will once again return to the state where there are few people, but dedicated fans nonetheless.

We're not dying. We die when the moolah runs out. Until that happens, we're staying here.
Welcome aboard, the main battle is over and you missed some hilarious times while we were at it, but we can always use the reserves. http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif

Heya.... have a fun stay, and nobody minds the long posts... we have often in our past gotten into some pretty deep heavy debates http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif

Yeah, welcome. I hope you feel yourself comfortable here. Just don't mind the aardvarks and watercoolers, they will gradually reveal their meaning.
If you think that's a long posting, go see some of the mad stories at the Tell a Story board (http://www.b5itf-finland.org/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum&f=16) at the Finnish forums (a good example is "Enemy With No Mercy"). Of course you won't be able to understand them but I assure you they're good. http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/wink.gif

as an outsider, I have a very hard time believing that this place will die. It's been 2 years since the cancellation, and these dudes are still going strong. Amazing ppl too http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif

Well actually that's over at another related board. Our tell-a-story threads get bogged down in Aardvarks too quickly. http://216.15.145.59/mainforums/smile.gif
