Was there anything before lp cause from what ive heard hl2rp has been here a lot longer than 4 years
Loads, far too many to list here.

TnB, for example, is one of the longest surviving communities going on eleven years now from back during the "golden age" when communities would dox and have full-on wars with one another and only a few giants emerged - most of whom died themselves.

Clockwork was when HL2RP became 'standardised' and you got communities like LP cropping up which is when a lot of people will tell you the 'passion' died. That frankly really aint true though cause you'd see passion projects being openly and viciously stomped out back when people claim things were 'way better'.

Just glad I didn't become employed until nebulous, and so, have only put cash up Alex's arse rather than anyone else.

is it true that ww3rp and ftrp would get ddosed or was it just clockwork lag?
LP as a whole would get doxed, and often - as would the staff team. In the former case though it got better thanks to better protection.

Sadly though LP had a reputation it passed on to us for doxing because iirc Cryptic would go around doing it.

"scars is creating script errors"

only a problem when they didn't drive a jeep full of soldiers off the nearest cliff before landing in the nearby POW camp

Probably just clockwork lag + combat/tickrate as well as the addons that WW3 had. (It had a lot of content)

Both. We're constantly getting notifications about attacks on our IP addresses.

Correction. Cryptic was accused (and there was evidence) of 'paying' someone to ddos other servers, not dox.
