Ask HMF anything

Thanks a lot! If I don’t find the song on vinyl I’ll probably buy it on CD.

Oh no.

Close your blinds, lock your doors, and hire a private security. Mr. Ochoa’s gonna send his son after you now.

Yeah, what’s the opposite of this?

Contrary to popular belief here on HMF i dont hate BM, its just not nearly as great as most people (IO Interactive included) want it to be.

Its by no means a bad Game, its just a good game in a Series of great Games.

For all the American Users here, whats your opinion on Opossums?
Whenever i watch an American Show or Movie that includes a Opossum the people/actors always react with some level of disgust to them, why is that? Like on the Level of Rats or Pidgeon, or Spiders.

I think they are rather cute, but i get the impression that most people dont feel the same way lol

We’re only freaked out by them because they can carry rabies. And they make the most unpleasant screeching noise at night when a person least expects it, for example when you might be walking your dog down a dark country street and you might become convinced that there is possibly a whole ass actual demon in those bushes so you’d better run your ass home so you and your dog don’t die.

But otherwise they’re OK.

From the looks of things, opossums have a lower chance to carry rabies compared to other mammals :stuck_out_tongue:

Little cuties if you ask me.

They are very delicate especially at a younger age. A friend of mind found one abandoned by its mother the other day and he was very sick and full of fleas, but was promptly taken to the right place that could nurse him back to health.

Back in 2012 I had an Opossum to get into some insulation under my house. It was in February and still very cold out. I thought I would hear something in my floor boards below my bedroom, then eventually it started to smell like a rat’s nest. If you’ve ever had a pet rodent, and smelled how their cage can get after a while - you’ll know this smell. This went on for a few weeks before I found out what it was. I seen it by my porch one night, another time by my storage building.

I had a relative that lived close by that let me borrow their wire-cage animal trap. It’s the kind that releases a door when weight is put on one end. So I set it under my house and a day or 2 later it got trapped. My dad had a truck so we took it a few miles down the road, took it out to the woods, and set it free.

After that, I tried to clean out the soiled little nest he made for himself, then fixed any possible areas where animals could get in again.

As for how I feel about them… I don’t hate 'em. I know they have a benefit to nature and I don’t see them as pests (except when they’re invading some part of my dwelling :sweat_smile: ).

We call them Possums, but I have no opinion on them except the same slight fear just like badger or a large raccoon. Badgers a totally mean but any of those animals can lash out if they have children around and/or you stumble up on them and startle them.

In my country you never have a problem with possums. They are much better than the possibly rabid but definitely aggressive opossum.

Sorry, I really slept on this when the old forums were taken offline. I believe it’s unlikely anyone copied them, and extracting them from the archived old forums is probably a real pain @wincenworks is this right?

I might have a few scripts laying around somewhere as I usually write these up in Word beforehand, though they’re rarely the final thing, as I do a lot of last minute changes when posting them.

I have the databases sitting on my hard drive but text is not particularly accessible since the database file is so huge that it requires special software to access at all. I could look for stuff if there were say particular keywords to look by for, but can’t guarantee anything.

All old threads are also archived by Notex:

Note that is lacks a search and is very bare bone. You would have to go site by site to find a specific thread. Or you download the whole thing to search is on your disk but I did not try that. You probably have to index everything first.

Thanks.
@Zevoros I quickly went through the Notex archive and found these:

Improving “The Finishline”
Improving “Three-Headed Serpent”
Improving “Chasing a Ghost”

I believe I never got to Another Life / The Ark Society, and I couldn’t find Night Call, though I believe I did one for it.
H1 “Improving” -threads were a lot less “ambitious” in presentation so I’d rather not dig those up. :slight_smile:

I woke up this morning and my arms and back feels sore. I continue my day and my back and right hand felt better but my left shoulder to my arm got worse. Does anyone know what is happening here and how to fix it, or at least make it feel more bearable?
