I posted those, but moderators have to approve my posts now (because of my little outburst). They dont show up.

Strange.  Don and I have never been asked to have your post approved :huh:

Bill probably has to approve them himself.

Why would you post anything about HAL Gil? Bill made it crystal clear that HAL was taken down and wasn't coming back..... :huh:

Because i wanted to ask. It never hurts to ask. Besides, HAL hasn't posted in over 2 years.

He hasn't posted because Bill removed him! Trust me, Bill has no intention of putting him back up. He was removed because of member complaints, and I'm sure Bill doesn't feel like being bothered by the same complaints again.

I just thought it would be kinda fun to talk to a forum bot. I saw some pretty hillarious conversations over there!
HAL seemed like he was mentally ill :D

It was fun, but it drove the forum insanely off topic (sort of like this forum is).

How does one become a beta tester over there? I think if there are qualifications that I would meet them, lol.. I would love to help them out over there..

Bill only hires them when he needs them. and when he needs one, he'll post about it.

And right now, there's nothing going on over there so there won't be any need for testers for some time. I believe that Tyler is next in line, because if any tester leaves it looks like its going to be Charles, and Tyler is the perfect candidate to replace him.

Gil, I'm pretty sure Bill said somewhere else that he scrapped that idea.
