    WHAT IS GOING ON WITH YOU PEOPLE - WAKE UP! :)

    Alright, I can't take it anymore, so I'll come right out and say it.  WHERE IS EVERYBODY?  This forum has gotten far too quiet.  We NEED you guys back in here on the board and in the comments section of the news on the main site!  We need you to keep the HH Community alive here!

    In the month of November, we will be running a promotion and straight give-away, as a way to "Give Thanks" to our loyal readers and contributers here in the forum.  Stay involved here and contribute.  The Great Thanksgiving Turkey God may just smile upon you. Cool

    Re: WHAT IS GOING ON WITH YOU PEOPLE - WAKE UP! :)

     Im going to blame TF2 for my lack of forum time. I only get about 45 mins to an hour to use my computer on a daily basis and really only have a very limited use for one at work due to the nature of my job (I briefly check my emails at the start/ end of my shift and thats it) so I never look at the forum whilst there.

     

    Still find it difficult to believe its this quiet though with the run up to Christmas and all the new hardware/ games that are cropping up. Maybe its just a bit too easy at  the moment..... 2gigs of ram, an 8800GT, an oc'ed Q6600, an Asus Mobo, an Antec P182, modular PSU and any number of hard drives and you are going to have a powerful, relatively cheap gaming rig with very few faults and a very straight forwards build.

    Ahhh.. that's more like it!  Lurking?  Lurking will not be tolerated.  You MUST post. :)  Kidding...

     

    So, competition eh?  What sort of game do you think you guys would like to run?  We'll see if we can put something together.

    ps.  I like how big the WAKE UP is now on the tagging cloud on the side margin. Big Smile  It's a perfect example of the power of tagging.  Guys, if you want a thread to be seen, tag your post with proper words in the tag field.

    Granted its a PC based forum for the most part but it'd be fun to somehow have a guitar hero competition or some other console based game like -- oh i dunno HALO?? Wink

    Re: WHAT IS GOING ON WITH YOU PEOPLE - WAKE UP! :)

    i like contests, the folding ones are always good because it at least promotes something useful to others (not that gaming ones are bad, you need to have fun too) I'll have to switch back to xp if that happens though as Vista doesn't like sending half of the WU's that i finish to the FAH servers so i stopped again :(

    I'll try and pick up my posting and banner clicking to help you out Davo contest of no contest as this site has helped me out in the past, and i don't need anything in return.

    To be honest I had a blast in the CSS tournament we had. I have been hooked on the game since. Not that I am any good though.
