The shimmie pictures in particular seems to have gone for me.

I can't seem to get any FAH signatures to load and many of the images as well.

Except for times when the site goes down. Like today. Because of the sudden demand. Therefore some people got the game where before htey may have come to this site, found it out of action and then forgot to come back.

Are you under the impression that you're only allowed to torrent illegitimate things?

The download page for the game has official torrents, which are better because they don't tax the servers here as much. I have the Windows v.1.0 and v.1.1 torrents on permanent seed.
NB: none of the above is a request

Yeah, torrents are our preferred way of offering KS.

As one of those awful redditors that came from KS making the main page (Although in my case, it was the Emi minefield pic instead of the Lilly cereal pic), I initially had to resort to an outside torrent for 1.0 since the site was down. Once it was up and dandy again, I dl'd the proper 1.1 link.

It's not worth getting the 1.2 unless you're interested in the Spanish translation, is it?
Because green eyes are best eyes.

ITT: Hipsters complain about new people coming to play KS :P

Seriously, guys, it's not a bad thing if reddit or other communities notice, and it's not a bad thing if other people enjoy it too.

ITT: d2r misusing the word "hipster". :P

But yeah, as long as 4chan never notices... :lol:

Am I misusing it? All I'm seeing in the thread a lot of "we were here first; fuck those new people", and really, to me, that's what defines a hipster: having been involved in a thing "before it was cool". :wink:

No, what you're seeing here is "Reddit's fucking awful so its people must be fucking awful so fuck those guys!"

Which is an entirely different flawed perspective, though not an entirely unfounded one. :P

And KS has never been "cool" as such. :lol:
