We could perhaps write Valve about updating the SFM to work with Portal and Portal 2 content (can't be too hard for them to fix) and to sponsor us.

i don't know how much they care about us or how much they want to sponsor [strike:2lrgmm03]low-activity websites[/strike:2lrgmm03] our little corner of the community, but it's worth a try isn't it? And they have the money...

Valve won't sponsor us. They don't sponsor anybody.

is not just that. is portal 2 itself. it's gotten old, and there's no memes to abuse.

if we'd want to get this forum reactivated, we'd need to get a major mod onto here that'd be the best thing ever.

that'll be hard

I'm happy for the memes, but the truth is that yes, Portal 2 (and Portal) are quite stale.

Something must be done to breathe life back into them.

I vote for a community-wide Portal 2 mod.

We already have one. Most of the people on here are part of rHetorical. As in working on Alive & Kicking.

Yeah, if we can get lots of pointing and nudging of "mAI" into AAK, it'll probably boost traffic

Hype up the release on moddb and TWP, and then promise a pre-release here. Voila.

It's release on PlanetPhillip first. Though we'll make sure that mAI is in the credits.

I won't lie. that video was the single best thing I've heard about the VALVe offices.

the offices, not the company. company's amazing, but you rarely hear of their offices.

I've been to their snack bar. They told my class* that we could take anything we want, so I have a Fanta Orange and some Starburst wrappers on my bookshelf as mementos. /bragging

Personally I think Gearbox has cooler offices.
