One of the reasons I'm still around is that this community is very big on maturity and fair mindedness-a lot of credit goes to Neal for not allowing this to turn into a home for the shoot-em-up/shoot off your mouth crowd.
The average age of the members plays a lot into this, also the never ending quest for realism by many of the modders means delving very deeply into historical data that would probably bore most FPS'ers to death. IMO
Anyway just my two cents worth

I always tend to play the same submarine sim for years, I was patroling in SH2 for yonks even though sh2 didn't have a dynamic campaign i still played the campaign over and over also editing the mission file was very easy i use to create my own story as i played it through, then came out Aces and Pacific aces mods which prolong the game until SH3 came out.

And here i am in 2006 doing it all over again with SH3 :D I can see myself still playing this game in 2010.

Thats unless i haven't brought SH4 by then ;)

I can't say anthing that hasn't already been said about the great modders. My thanks for all your excellent work.:up: :rock:

Just wanted to add more support to the modders. All those providing additional units and mods deserve full recognition for their efforts, they add to our enjoyment immensely.
