Yes, thats right, the great SiLeNcEr has come to the NS community. Haven't heard of me? Shame on you, just ummm.... never mind. Actually this is my third time posting on any forum so be nice and don't poke the n00b (i'm not new to gaming tho). I heard of NS from phl about a year ago and i thought it might be cool, but then it dissapeared and i forgot about it. But then one fatefull day (yesterday) i was searching the news archives of phl and i found this awesome mod again. Ive been haunting the forums ever since. Oh, and by the way I'm from Canada which is an excuse to p4wn everything and everyone i see cuz Canada r0x0rz

"Greetings, my lord" or just "hello".
Enjoy your time, read the FAQs and don't call the level 1 alien a Bob. Call him a Skulk. Much better. Also don't forget to spread the word of NS, don't annoy the community with spamming and be patient about a release...

Hey everyone, I just found out about you guys a couple days ago and DAMN!, this game is going to be amazing once its done. I only wish I was apart of it in the beginning, oh well I guess. Anyway, I'll post some more in the future, but for now I'm going to my cottage.
Introducing myself,

Hi Maroc!
Welcome to the NS-forums. Be careful not to ask questions in bad grammar (normally you can ask EVERY question without being often flamed as long as your grammar isn't too bad). Don't spam, don't use the old alien-nicknames when moderators/developers are around, read all the FAQs and remeber:
NS will be out when it's done

Hay im nuketheplace I'ed say ive been drinking for about 5 years now. Wait this isan't AA sorry. I'ed say i found NS because of my friend back when it was coming out in May I've been obsessed with it ever sence. Please excuse my spelling i know it really sucks but it takes to much time to go look for a spell check lazy me

Hi Nuketheplace (sh**t, I can't call you Nuke because we have already one).
Welcome to the forums, read the FAQs, don't call the aliens by their old nicknames (the good ones are: lvl1= Skulk lvl2=Gorge lvl3=Lerk lvl4=Fade lvl5=Onos ). And don't worrie, your spelling isn't THAT bad... As long as you don't touch capslock and TRY to use periods/punctation everything is fine (By the way, I think you've written your Nickname wrong, look at your profile...)

Sep 6 2002, 08:27 PM
Yes another new face.
My on-line nickname is Elbo, and it's not my actual name (my parents aren't that cruel

)
I'm from Holland and I hate introducing myself.
I learned about NS some time ago. The first time I saw it I was (just like everybody else) stunned by the beautiful artwork.
I myself am some kind of designer (or at least I would like to think I am

), and after browsing the forums I discovered that there are alot of very talented people here.
Like I said, I hate introducing myself. I hope you will find more than one post of me here.
by the way, did anyone have any problems with registering? I had to wait more than three weeks!
Just my bad-luck I guess

Hello! both of you! Welcome to the forums. If I might recommend a few threads . . .
First: the FAQ for the general forums
http://www.natural-selection.org/cgi-bin....=1;t=35After that, a great way to glean info on the game is to read (or at least scan) the PT stories. You will soon learn much by the end, and we try to make them as entertainign as possible.
http://www.natural-selection.org/cgi-bin....06;st=0And when yer done reading the stories, you'll probobly have a good idea of what you want to play as.

Sep 9 2002, 10:28 PM
Hey!! I'm new to posting here!!!
Since I'm a new to this, let me ask a question...
When will Natural Selection be available, and where can I buy it?

Now that that's over, I'd like to say that I
DO know the answer to that, and that I've been
watching this site and the boards since around October of 2001!!! Back then, they had a tentative release date of "The weekend after Halo 3 previews are out!

"
Mwaaa Haaa Haaa, I'm not such a noob after all!!!!
I shot down your hopes of flaming me to kingdom come!!

Sep 14 2002, 10:55 PM
okay im a bit new to posting, because i just decided to register a few weeks ago, but a few of you may recognize me (hopefully more than a few

) from the irc channel.
Ill introduce myself just because i have absolutely nothing to do. um, im known as elitebear and how i was introduced to ns is quite an odd story.
one night i was searching on google, the keywords “Natural Selection”, because i was doing a report on it (the evolution thingy), and being a hardcore hl fan, I was pretty amazed to see a mod titled natural selection. i immediately entered the site and was wowed by the awesome website design and SS textures. later on i grew more and more interest in ns and now... im here

Hi! My name is Rohan, my main nickname on the web being trevalyan. I'm 19, attending fourth- year university at Memorial University in Newfoundland, and believe that the impending marriage of FPS and RTS will be the greatest thing in video game history since 3D graphics. Being a rather hardcore Renegade player, it will be quite interesting to see the mechanics of this game... =)
(EDIT) And out of curiosity, how much has the benevolence of Tycho Brahe helped the Natural Selection cause out?? =)

Hello all, I am Uhclem, and I have just recently signed up for the NS forums.
Some of you may know me by my other name, Nick-Danger, especially in the Half-Life mod community since I once had done sounds for Day of Defeat, and before that, I worked with Raven on Infiltration.
Currently I work as an IRC channel administrator for the MMORPG, Eve-Online, and while I expect that will be consuming most of my life, there is always time for great mods, even if they are being produced for a dying engine.

I'm an avid gamer...been playing games as far as i can remember (Wing Commander 2 was my first game to memory i see myself playing..)
From Western Australia, i've only just revcenmlty re-installed Half-Life so when this mod is released i can download and play it (I gave up playing Half-Life online earlier because of the amount of people that are getting more and more cable connections)
Followed the link from penny-arcade..been looking at the forums, drooling over the piccies ever since.
