But what about the Bow Upgrade? :(
The Bow Upgrade is fake. No such thing, no matter what people say.

I think he knew that. ;)
I did put a bow upgrade in two of my FMs, but that doesn't count.

Why did you draw black lines over menus and window buttons?

I think we're all over looking the more important issue here which is
YOU HAVEN'T PLAYED THE BONEHOARD??!!!
Go now, my son and enjoy that for which the Builder hath created thee.
As for Alarus and the Bow Upgrade, I liken these detractors to the Illuminati or Templar Knights, purposely obscuring that which should be revealed to all. Seek and ye shall find.

I thought the Bow Upgrade was just a pathetic way of bullying newbies. Unfunny and a complete waste of everyone's time. Unbelievable that 8 years later people are still using it. Imagine a Half Life Forum like this:
New member: What's this about a gun upgrade in one of the lockers?
Member 1: Oh yes it's there all right, keep looking and you'll find it ;) Right everyone? (metaphorically mugs for the camera and winks)
Member 2: Haw haw haw!
Member 3: Tee hee.
Member 4: It took me a while but I found it!
Member 5 : Yes it really exists! *giggles*

I don't know about bullying, but apparently it just became part of folklore. Whether it is funny or not, is disputable. For instance, if ever get the opportunity to make a bow upgrade reference in a computer game, I certainly will, because this kind of humour appeals to me.
On one of newsgroups I'm subrscribed to, we used to celebrate April Fool's Day by sharing our impressions from the newest Fallout 3 beta. It had nothing to do with bullying, really, and we never made fun of those who would take our discussions at face value (and believe it or not, someone always did). Now that Fallout 3 has been announced for real, we will need to think of something else. Maybe Thief 4?

That spurred my imagination as well, and none of the theories I came up with sound plausible.
