Our Rules:
1. Keep it civil.
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only.
2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry.
I should not need to explain this one.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.

Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

For me it was a little known game called ThinkTanks. It was created as a demo for a companies game engine and never got much support. It was a silly little catoon tank game with basic 3D.
The community figured out how to bypass the demo restrictions on the game engine. The game was modded to an insane degree. Thousands of new maps, new game types and objects. I dabbled with it at the time and created around 70 maps personally.
Last I check the original game was someone like 8mb of space. The full mod pack with all of the maps was 2GB
Wow you have just unlocked a hidden memory for me. My dad had this game on his Mac G5, and I would play (vanilla) all the time. Back then I thought the internet was small, so when I saw someone online with the name "Will" and thought it was one of my friends from school.
I wonder if there is anyone still playing.
