*hugz Say*
I disagree... i hug her not enough ;]
...just for the record i'm here 2 months minus 5 days ; )

And i lubs her not enough ;B
I have been here 1 week. :D
Congratz Q !!!
I failed to mark the date of my arrival in stone... or paper for that matter.... I may never remember.... beyond that it was sometime during finals because I didn't want to do any work :) Wait... that's still what I'm doing!
I've been enjoying this forum though... it's more than just a convenient study break. You guys all made me feel very welcome, and I appreciate that.... :) So I'm here to stay!
And I'm looking forward to that oh so hypothetical 2004 release date.... there's still a lot of year left to go!!! (A great Christmas present though... if KQIX were to come out then....please please please). But I can wait.... I can...... I can..... :P
you registerd at June 27, 2002. your first post was at April 19, 2004 :o :o
what have you done all that time??!! :o ; )
ummm... y'know.... stuff....
I thought that I'd come across this place when I was in Spain, but I honestly couldn't remember.... you have now confirmed it :)
Basically... work and school is what I did between then and now. Nothing all that thrilling. I SHOULD have been here... then I wouldn't be a Wizard's Slave.
*tries to give 23 postcount*
sorry, i'm not allowed to do that, ...but i'm guessing you wouldn't be a slave for long (like i said, till 51 so hang on ; )
*tries to give 1000 post to draconum*
you would have double that by now :suffer:, I have only been here 4 months and i have 3000 :suffer:
Storm, lol it does feels like 3 years :P
What a cute thread! XD
Next month will make it a year and a half for me! :)
One year, nine months...(almost)
wow cat u could hav had like a baby by now...maybe 2 :P
erm i hav been here for a while now...it does seem like much longer tho!
:o Ummm...no. No kids for me...
u mean now...or ever?
Ive been her forever!! I'm old and grey!! :-\
Well, I have posted on this forum for just over a month now. However, I have lurked on the forum for longer...much longer!
Really? XD How long were you a lurker for? I believe lurked for a few weeks before joining. :P
I've lurked for.... ehh, 2 days ::) :P

make that two-three years!
Edit; Last count was closing to three years I think but I may have estimated wrong...well...looks like I better check the data logger!

I mean now...one day, I hope (but I gotta find a guy who will put up with me and marry me first :P)
....wow!! :o :o that's a long time!! ...glad you finally registerd and decided to join us!! :D
Well, it wasn't entirely my decision!
o..k, well, whoever the decision made, it was probably a good one :)
Well I hope so to, it is supposed to get me talking to human beings other than myself! (these are lonely times trust me.....)
well, last timeI checked I qualify as a Human beeing so feel free to talk :)
I'll drink to that! 8)
I will make a special note by the side of your name:
B'rrr (Humanoid in origin)
I never lurked, I signed up as soon as I got onto the sight :D
I have absolutely no idea when I joined, but I believe I registered before Neil did. All I can do is see when I first found this site, and that's August 1, 2002, but I didn't join the forum then. I don't think I even lurked there. I came back September 18 2002, and it can't have been long afterwards I started posting. I don't remember lurking, and if I did, it can't have been long. So my best estimate is about 2 years. :pleased:

That long afterwards? :o Hard to believe. And if
you registered that long ago. it must have taken you a long time before you started posting too, because I was already posting when you showed up. 8)
Well, I was a member for almost a month before you joined. At that time, I made about 50 posts in the time before my 8-9 month disappearance...Then I came back in February of this year. Hmmm, I may have been gone longer than 8 or 9 months...may have been closer to 11...

Strange... I never saw any posts of you in the pre-pre-pre-pre-this forum. ;]
Well, I wasn't very memorable back then :P

Dont go leaving again, it will make me sad :(
I can't promise anything. If I get the job I'm hoping for over next summer, I'll have very limited access to the internet...if I have access at all.
:o
:'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
I will miss you
:'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
:'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(
Oh come on...that's still about seven months away...and I won't know anything for sure until February at the earliest (April at the latest).
Oh well I dont care how far away it is :-\, I will still miss you :'(
yeah, you can't leave, who will take my place when I'm gone?? :-\
And when are you disappearing on us?
i wasnt a lurker, i jumped straight in after almost falling off my chair in college...i put that down to excitement and not the faulty chair...well...
I've been here since May 8th(that's when I registered anyways).
As far as how long I lurked, no idea.
*Best guess=I lurked for 1-3 days, left, came back a few/many months later, lurked for a day, then joined
*not counting after I registered

And when are you disappearing on us?
after like 258 posts or so ::)
And why's that?
Yeah, why is that?
(I will only disappear when all goes well and truly pants with life and when it does go pants, by 'eck it'll go pants!)

Must be, although I'm not
that bad at remembering names than I am at remembering faces, your name absolutely doesn't ring any bells uphere. Such an intriguing name should have left a trace though. XB
/me wonders why Rob is going to stop posting when he's reached 8000 posts too.
EDIT: I would like to add (after restarting pc/Linux because I had some problems (not internet-related) to fix that way) there's only two reasons which'd force me to leave:
a) after the release of this game this forum will become extremely dull
b) I've found another worthwile time-consuming activity (most probably in the field of :love: )
what?! what the heck was that supposed to mean you will leave after the game is released because the forum will become dull?! (long question lol) but wtf why? you should the the other way around, show around MORE and enjoy reviewing the game with the other forum members as well! not go away :(
If he leaves, I'll bet he comes back for... whatever's coming after KQ9. :D
Im kinda phasing out now so who knows what I will do after its released :-\
I think/hope he mean that after the game comes out and the forum will get dull (none posting, everyone playing) he will leave :-\

Depends on what's going to be coming after KQ9. I have a very peculiar taste in games, you know. ::)

The main conditon is the one concerning the forum becoming dull. I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon, but eventually, as time progresses, and nothing new happens, it could.
Quote from: Say on November 01, 2004, 06:09:56 PMyou should the the other way around, show around MORE and enjoy reviewing the game with the other forum members as well! not go away :(
Just so you know there's other things I do in my free time besides KQ9. And I'm not good at reviewing anything, not even games I like. :-\
I'm a terrible reviewer too!! :-\

Don't worry, Ol' Shadow will be here! (I will download the full game but it will probably be stored away for at least a year before I will get a chance to play it!) Besides, someone has to man the forum!
why do you store it away, it's not a wine or so :-\ :P
time? But at least one forum regular will be around the first few days the game is out :P
what about time? :S :P
and well... I hope for that regular that someone visits from time to time cuz if it's a hard game it might take a while till the others return ::) ;-D
Maybe I wasn't following...but I was thinking Shadow's reason for not being able to play the game as soon as it comes out is because of time constraints.
And once the game comes out, I do plan on dropping by (probably for hints :P) every once in a while until I finish the game. Of course, "every once in a while" will probably mean once or twice a day :P
:o :o :o :o
you are dropping by for hints?? cheater!! >:( >:( :-\
:'( :'( :'( :'(
Only if I get stuck... :'( :'(
why are you crying?? :-\
are you so ashamed of yourself?? :S
You called me a cheater...
well.... yeah, I did, ...so ....? :S :-\
::) nevermind :P

There's a small problem with me doing that without some practical problems. You see, I do most (if not all now) of my surfing in Linux. KQ IX will be released to play on Windows. My WINE is not operational (yet) and I doubt such a new game would run with it anyway. So, if I get stuck on something I need a hint for (note: hint <> spoiler), I have 2 options:
a) Shutdown Windows and start up in Linux, wait for an answer and then shutdown Linux and go back to Windows.
b) (Temporarily) surf in Windows.
It's not that my network isn't safe, the router's firewall is effectively stealthing all of its ports, it's the fact I don't trust Windows$.
And to get back to a discussion about me joining on page 2, I found an e-mail in my IN-box (yes, I keep a lot of mails, especially those when joining a forum, if only to not forget the login-data), and indeed it was on March 02, 2003. Hence, the forum is absolutely correct, since I find no earlier mention of me registering for a KQ IX-forum, and IIRC every KQ IX forum was a registering one. 8) It seems I registered on the JA-forums on October 24, 2002, maybe I was confusing those two. ;] Well, at least it's 20 months (+ 2 days) today (November 4, 2004). :P

Explination of what I just posted(for non-Linux users)
"The WINE project itself is a free and open quasi-emulator of Microsoft Windows 3.x, 9x, and NT that enables Unix users to run a growing variety of Microsoft Windows programs. WineX, however, is specifically built for Linux, and has a focus on game technology -- which tends to push the envelope in using special operating system-specific features such as DirectX."

Not very long. :P

And already so many posts. If you keep this up you'll
definitely be a groupie before me. :jealous:
PS: Thanks for the Linux-info! Appreciate it a lot. :pleased: However, I've just read the small print and that part about paying puts me off. :-X
Now you know why I wasn't willing to subscribe. ;P
I'll just dual boot for now. :)
So...
I've been here longer than I've ever been here before! :D
and the longer I type the longer I've been here! !!! ;P
Been on the forums for a little while, not sure for exact time. My first post in this section *strangles racx again*. I thought it was for groupies only. Is this an insane section that i should just ignore?
You should ignore it as long as you're not insane :P Just kidding. As far as I know, you are able to post anywhere and everywhere.
well... aren't you a groupie GravityMX?

Unless you spent an inordinate amount of time lurking around, you've been here since September 16, 2004. 8)
And so we add yet another few days to our current member-status. :scholar: I don't know what my first post is in this section and AFAIK my first ever post has vanished without a trace.
I've been here for two years I believe...
Since April this year, so about 7 months so far.
Quote from: Bürrhîzen on November 16, 2004, 06:05:23 AMJoshua (GravityMX) is the most sane person I have ever met and I have known him for 11 years :D, and hes been sane ever since I have known him :P
What the people are in real life, is of no concerne for me. Their behaviour on this forum (that what I see if it anyway) is what I base on.
The length I've been here has probably contributed a lot to my current status (see 1st line of my sig). :pleased:
