Lol.
I like you already.
This isn't your first time on these forums, is it?

Nope I am a forum member from the old beta tests of Lugaru (back before Lugaru had a windows version)

My account was registered in 2004, although it was technically the end of 2004. Back then I had a geektastic BlueBerry iMac with a 350Mhz PowerPC G3 processor and a whopping 8 MB's of Texture memory!

*stunned*
Beta tests of Lugaru... ;~;
If there's one regret I'd ever conceive in my gaming life, it's that I would've missed that.

Wait, FrozenThunder needs to log on to a site about shark cartilage?

I don't think I've actually posted here yet and I'm not sure if I've introduced myself in this way in some other thread either. Might as well do so now at 1:05 AM.

I'm BunnyWithStick and last I checked I had the highest post/crap count on these forums due to what used to be daily checking and replying to anything I had even the slightest opinion about.

When I was younger I had the remarkable ability to get something as simple as the use of an apostrophe that I had previously used perfectly correctly completely back-to-front, start an argument about it and then forget all about the back-to-front business and start arguing against myself. This might be caused by coming back to a thread days later, but looking back on what I thought was the thread the apostrophe argument came from when I searched for it, I certainly can go completely insane when it comes to internet debates. I seriously have no clue as to what I was thinking back then, meaning I can not decypher my own posts in that thread even slightly.

I can't be bothered keeping up with all the new posts on the forum much now (but I'm sure I'll return to my old habits once I get some Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory (which I only recently managed to get running without it crashing or PunkBuster kicking me for server integrity upon connect) into my system) but what time I do spend on the forums consists of me dealing out a healthy dose of Stronge into Wolfire's bloodstream, along with other people such as Invertin and Glabbit.

Speaking of Stronge, I wish I had just posted my response into the Stronge Thread instead of PMing Whef with my (correct) answer of Turner (technically Turner's life according to Whef, but anyway) while everyone was too busy asking what "Stronge" was supposed to be to actually solve the riddle (except maybe for some other people who PMed the answer as well) thus causing what turned out to be a scam to get a large reply count to be foiled. Or on second thought absolutely nothing would've happened since Whef would ignore us until it got to four pages in length as it did.

Anyway, as always (since ten seconds ago) remember to always close the lid of the toilet when you're finished so that the beavers don't come out and harass our kittens. Do not worry, while you are on the toilet they're mostly not going to want to bathe in the rain of turd. Mostly.

Since it is now 1:38 AM this proves that I really need to learn how to manage my time.

I'm pretty sure you were a rather large part of the flame war I mentioned, although not a part of the split thread I linked to.

Sadly, the thread in which I somehow got the idea that the usage of Its and It's needed to be severely mutilated so much that it caused me to cite the dictionary's correct usage of the term, thus proving myself wrong (yet right at the time since I completely forgot that I was meant to be arguing that the incorrect usage was correct, rather than the other way round) appears to have disappeared.

I think it's quite impressive that I managed to suddenly get something that simple which I had previously used perfectly correctly (I think) completely back-to-front in one day and then remember that it was supposed to be the other way round the next. Then start arguing against myself.

Or, rather, impressive that my brain somehow managed to huff paint while I was sleeping at the time.

It should be reasonably easy to search for since David himself thought it necessary to intervene, but since I can't quite remember his exact wording clearly enough to search for said post, I haven't been able to find it.

I have no idea why, but this amuses me no end.

I find it funny when one boy says "Good boy" to another boy of similar standing. It tickles me in nice places.

Hey guys, evidently I'm new here, so i figured my first post should be an intro of sorts.

My name is Bart and I'm British, I like drawing, games, long walks on the beach and foreign movies :P

I've come here because the forum I was on before (Crysis Online) got shut down recently and i've been searching for a decent forum about something that I find interesting, and this place fits the bill perfectly.

hope I didn't sound like a smartass there

ps: what are the rules on signatures like here? I've got a 600x100 pic that I'm wanting to use but I don't want to step on any toes if its too big or simply prohibited.

Hey! I recently preordered Overgrowth, so I figured i'd take advantage of the forums.
English isn't my native language, so I apologize for any grammatical errors i make.

I am a wannabe programmer, and when I'm in the mood i draw crappy pictures.
