Rawr!

[Locke Cole]

Let's revive these boards, see them live again! Its been fairly quiet lately, drag a friend on over and get them to join us. Rawr! :P

What's everyone been up to these days? I assume the slowdown is probably due to school and such, but I figure I'd post a topic and see what you all have to say. What brings you back to post on our forums? Do they lack anything? Feedback is always welcomed.

[Pezito]

Ha, so you noticed too ? ;) I guess school is the main factor, yes - school and work for those who have a job. I wonder where Zedie went ! (>.<)

AND THE OTHERS TOO !!! (è_é)
*big eyes*

Yuffie, Cyrano, Charon, Mithrandir, Elhaym, everyone, just what are you doing right now ? XD
We need you. :(

I for one have been away for a few days, during which I practically never check my mails / forums / etc. The thing is, I go to Gigi's place about every 2 or 3 weeks, so every now and then there are a few days when you won't probably hear of me. But I always come back ! :)

[Ksaa]

i'm reading.... no wait.. thinking.. ack!! now i'm typing! LOL anywho.. TrueSephiroth "dragged" me over here a week ago... i'm an RPG nut, like him.. so i enjoy! nice to meat...errr.. meet you all!! *kefka laugh* muahahahaha
~Ksaa
"I know what you did last RP!"
"no.. you dont."
"Errr. then... I know where you sleep!"
"Where?"
"In your bed!"

[Kilu]

Well, I'm still here. But the problem obviously is that I don't like to post alone :) :D

Sure, there are topics to post in, but the less there are other posters, the less I have to say :(

[Zedie9]

:) I've been working a lot of overtime. And with the increase in work hours comes the obvious decrease in free time. When I read the boards, I become a Post Junkie™ - something I couldn't afford. Now, I blame Kilu and Jim for my lack of sleep this morning. Bastards. :p ;)

[Pezito]

Haha ! And you can blame me too now ! :D

[Giea]

Don't Worry! Giea is here to help =) just got back, my computer brokeded

[Cyrano de Hero]

Yuffie, Cyrano, Charon, Mithrandir, Elhaym, everyone, just what are you doing right now ? XD
We need you. http://www.rpgamers.info/images/smilies/sad.gif
Did you really think de Hero would abandon you guys?:w00t: A true Hero never abandons his friends! I'm here, I've been reading your words of *ahem* wisdom from time to time. Can't speak for the others on that list, though...

Life's just been keeping me busy lately. College's finally gotten the better of me. This is defintely my last semester there. Even the bravest heroes with the largest of noses can't win every battle...:(

[silverDistortioN]

[pikatsu]

So is the size of one's nose. :banana:

[Charon]

Keep one's eye on the who's visited on the main page. I'm still here everyday, just lurking, waiting for a topic to interest me. :)

[TrueSephiroth]

I've been working and schooling and aggrivated the last two weeks. All my free time has been put into getting my computer up and running again. Last week I was running on an old 8.4 gig I have. Then the week before that I was futily trying to get my fairly new 200 Gig hd to work again. It was failing to be recognized right. It had the option to limit the size to 32 gigs for older computers until you install the seagate software to allow the operating system to recognize it all. I believe that chip shorted because it would only recognize that at any maximum and I could not get around it no matter what seagate told me to do. RMA's it and this one works like a dream.

Sorry for the rant but not much of a good place to rant and at the same time this explains it all. I'll be around more soon but not right now.

[Locke Cole]

Well its good to hear that we are not forgotten, I just hope our forums will grow to become as active as before, if you would have called them that ;)

I'm always inviting people to come join us, but its so hard to find good forum people these days. Theres just too many forums out there to pick from. :o

[Giea]

(Sorry this is really short..but) Who are we missing?

[Pezito]

It seems most girls have deserted this place... (°_°);;;

not that we had lots of 'em hey XD

[Giea]

It seems most girls have deserted this place... (°_°);;;

not that we had lots of 'em hey XDRight Yuffie said she was going to stay, but I haven't seen her at all =/. But good thing we got silver! -_^

[Kilu]

Elhaym, Otter and Dragon Master are the first ones to come to mind. Elhaym made a quick stop by, but vanished again :( Otter visited the IRC channel a while back, but that aside, she is also MIA. And I don't even remember when was the last time I saw Dragon Master.

For the more masculine (using the word very loosely here :dance: ) users, Zedie is absent more than his share, Kyari is on a mission, GMF and Peteju both disappeared way before the new forums. Just to name a few.

[Charon]

Where's Yuffie?

[silverDistortioN]

i'm guessing most people are too busy now that... summer's... over. XD
Otter stopped by the chat room and said hi a while ago when the forums were down. and... um...

...i blame Locke.

[Pezito]

Hell, even I have less time to visit the forums, considering I'm more than often afk in the South ! I try to check RPGN from there though... ;)

[BAMAToNE]

Hell, even I have less time to visit the forums, considering I'm more than often afk in the South ! I try to check RPGN from there though... ;)

In the South, eh? Why don't you come visit me and Zedie! ;)

[silverDistortioN]

oh, and not me? i'm more south than Zedie. in fact, my state is named after how south it is.

[Giea]

oh, and not me? i'm more south than Zedie. in fact, my state is named after how south it is.I thought you lived in NORTH Carolina..

[FlashFirer]

I live south, if you take a look on the map, São Paulo is southeast.

[Kilu]

And I have to work these days :( But eventhough I work, I still find the time to visit :) Because I'm super duper person.

[Cyrano de Hero]

Well, the reason I really lagged out and hardly ever came here was because- don't take offense- I just flat out didn't care enough. That sounds harsh, but it's true. Nothing against you guys. That and these new forums are slower to load with all the pictures with my 56k modem... damn dial-up connection!

But, I would never leave entirely. RPGN will always have me for its hero!:D

[silverDistortioN]

I thought you lived in NORTH Carolina..no, Zedie lives in north carolina. i live in south carolina.

[Giea]

no, Zedie lives in north carolina. i live in south carolina.Well excuse me :angel: I also used to live in South Carolina :ponder: :umbrella:

[Pezito]

Rawr there ! Pezito talking from the South... of France. ;)
Just wanted to check the forums and say hello !

*says hello* (^o^)/

[Giea]

(^o^)/

..I've wanted to ask you, what is that suppose to be? A kitty or a person? >.< lol

[jetblue]

Yeah me to.http://www.rpgamers.info/images/smilies/smile.gif It look's like a buddahist diety like that kitty holding a coin in asian store's. Or is it a charechter from a rpg?

[Pezito]

Hehe... :)

It's just a smiley, asian-style. I think they're more expressive than the 90°-left ones ! :p
The ( and ) make the head, the / is a waving arm ; ^^ is for the smiling eyes, and o makes a cute mouth (like "hellooo"). :D

It's just a matter of imagination, you can mix many characters together and create new smileys easily - the hardest part being to be read correctly by other people. ^^

(*o*) (°~°) (o_O) (^-^) (>..<) (=_=) (é_è) etc...

http://pezito.free.fr/Bazar/GIFs/Punch.gif

[Giea]

Cool! <(^.^)^ Hehe.. that one is Kirby!

[Yuffie]

I've been on holiday! :D

[Pezito]

Hey Yuffie !
That was a looonnng holiday for sure... :p
Nice to see you back ! ^^

[Locke Cole]

Indeed, welcome back Yuffie :) Its good to see the forums are slowly coming back to life. I was worried that changing software and having it hosted on a different domain name may draw off users..

[Kilu]

Hoy :D
Holidays are for wussies ;)

[Giea]

Hoy :D
Holidays are for wussies ;)That's why you just got off your's =). :finger:

[Yuffie]

Nope, holidays are for totally cool people like me! :D

You're just jealous because we had our own mansion, pool, golf course, lake and mailbox with a flag on it. :cool:

That and the entire land before time series was on while I was over there!! :D

[silverDistortioN]

i just got back from a month-long vacation from my accounting class... >.>

apparently four weeks of class is almost as good as an hour and a half of studying right before the exam... take that, school!

Cardboard box, puddle, hunk of astroturf, stagnent pond, and an empty prigles can with a paper cheese flag in it.
It's all a matter of perception really...

...I need a better job.








I kid of course.

PS: HA! I recive the coveted first spot on the new page!

[Yuffie]

I am so going to eventually get round to putting up my holiday photos. :p
But not for a while.

[Cyrano de Hero]

Everyday's a holiday for this hero!:music:

Just chill, relax, and let the world and life pass you by... who needs worries, anyway? :D

Wish I could believe that %100 percent of the time... :(

[Neo_Stythys]

Did I mention I just sit in my nice comfy chair all day and play PS2 and get paid for it?

[pikatsu]

Nope, you didn't.

[silverDistortioN]

women pay to have sex with me. >.>

...no, not really. but theoretically, i think it would be a *little* more fulfilling than playing games all day. =)

[Pezito]

I think testing isn't the best job in the video games industry (if QA is what you do, Neo Stythys) cause you get to play many games - the best and the worst... Whereas when you create games, at least you're the only one to blame when the game you work on is crappy. :D

[Astrolounge]

Oh yeah? want to know what my job entails?
Nothing, FOR 8 HOURS!
I can sleep for all it matters!
I can surf the net!
Nobody cares!
Mwahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!

[Astrolounge]

Aren't you a woman Silver? If so... HOT.

[silverDistortioN]

...chauvinist pig-dog.

[Astrolounge]

Voyuer Dammit, Voyuer! (lol)

(Are you just going to keep editing words into your post one at a time?)

[silverDistortioN]

...chauvinist voyeur-dog.

[Astrolounge]

That's better.

[silverDistortioN]

i edited the post because "chauvinist voyeur" doesn't quite have the same ring as "chauvinist voyeur-dog".

[Astrolounge]

"Pig" is a perfectly acceptable thing to call me in this situation, I think it makes more sense than "dog."

[silverDistortioN]

pig-dog sounds just as good, in my opinion.

[Astrolounge]

On topic:
I post here because the people are intelligent and friendly, actually apologize, and seem to have feelings instead of just being burned out husks of semi-humanity like you find elsewhere on the interweb.

[Astrolounge]

And in Microsoft, and EA games.

[Cyrano de Hero]

I post here because this place is a veritable oasis in the desert of online stupidity and a safe haven from the raping of written language that I all too often find in other messge boards and chat rooms... I just don't post very often, unfortunately.... :(

[silverDistortioN]

i enjoy concentualizing my rape of the english language.

[Giea]

I thought you were born in the USA. o_O

[silverDistortioN]

i've never implied otherwise.

[Kilu]

I have already taught myself to ignore Giea pretty well, because most of the time he doesn't make any sense at all. My head would probably explode if I tried to make sense on his posts.

[Astrolounge]

7! Caramel! The war of 1812!
BLENDERS!!!!

ANYWAY... I really like this group of folks. So friendly and funny.

[Kilu]

We have had our bad moments as well. Can't remember any happening in these new forums though, but there were some ugly situations in the old ones. For some reason I was always somehow part of them :dance:

Well maybe not always, as I haven't always been here, but anyway :w00t:

[Giea]

7! Caramel! The war of 1812!
BLENDERS!!!!

ANYWAY... I really like this group of folks. So friendly and funny.The majority of them like to ignore you and pretend you're not there, yeah what a great group.

[Astrolounge]

Wow, just like how I like to pretend YOU don't exist? That's quite a coincidance.

[Giea]

It's a metaphor, damn.

[Astrolounge]

Actually you said "The majority of them LIKE to ignore you..." So, It's a SIMILE.

ANYWAY... What kind of "bad moments" are you refering to Kilu?

[Kilu]

One comes to mind immediately, Lina situation, as I like to call it. I might find you a link to the thread later, but not now because my brother is eating all my internet line. Awful awful speeds.

[Giea]

Good thing there isn't a lack of rudeness here. And Kilu you are wrong, the "bad moments" usually concerned me.

[Lord Draud]

i was hoping i was gona be mention althogh newish i was still a pain in the ass

[Kilu]

And Kilu you are wrong, the "bad moments" usually concerned me.
Not really. This was way before your time, and I can't really remember any situations that you have been part of.

[jetblue]

Im curious kilu. Ive been searching the old forums but cant find nothing. Can you give me a date or find a linkhttp://www.rpgamers.info/images/smilies/biggrin.gif









Im bored. All the holiday festivities are over and my favorite cousins did'nt make it over this year. Everyone else is out christmas shoping. Ill do my shoping later in the month. Better bargains.http://www.rpgamers.info/images/smilies/smile.gif

[Kilu]

I believe it was somewhere in the gaming->roleplaying area. AND if my memory serves me, the threads name was worst rpg ever. The thread got a bit sidetracked. You can also check out the Intelligent Discussion thread in the same area, which contains some of the catalyst that led to the events in the other thread.

[Astrolounge]

What WAS your pick for worst game anyway?

[jetblue]

I started reading it around 7:00 pm And finished around 10:30.
It was very interesting. That was some of the best post making I ever read.
Bravo kilu and the rest of you. I cant stand rabid fanboy's either.

And still you were all so polite. No cursing. I would of said some big time curse words.

I would of said exactly what BigJimSlate said and buy a used x-box if she was so concerned.

I still dont own a x-box. Ive bought a lot of games for it from closeout sales. I saved up about 80 $ to buy one but I am despretly trying to buy on e-bay a 3do and u.s. neo geo cd console. I recently got a bunch of games for both systems and must try them out so x-box will have to wait. And I got to start saving up for RE4. The shops are already taking pre-orders.

[Lord Draud]

sigh i find my self in much the same way as you i have like 30 PS2 games and not even a tv to play them on

[Kilu]

What WAS your pick for worst game anyway?
FF6 I believe :) It's the worst rpg I have played. I tend to not to play the crappier ones :) But that was irrelevant to the issue that exploded afterwards.

:) It was a long read eh :D

I also need to get my hands on RE4 as soon as it arrives in Europe, which is still far away, but still. I don't own xbox either, there has not been enough games that would interest me to make the purchase yet. Also, I don't have money :)

[silverDistortioN]

for worst game ever, counterstrike gets my vote. dissent will be held as confession of your own ignorance.

and also... i finally picked up my xbox over the weekend. some guys i know modded it about a month ago as well as put the leaked halo 2 on it, but all i use it for are emulators. =)
so i've been playing a lot of majora's mask and super ghouls and ghosts lately. on my wonderful xbox.

[Astrolounge]

I would have to agree with Silver on Couterstrike.
Lot of work for, not a whole lot of fun, actually.
