Life on the Forum

[Armistead]

I was searching the net today and found a old friend. I think the first online game I played was Novalogics Delta Force. We had a large community, 1000's of matches and several forums, but also a squad forum. He still had it and was fun to visit 1999 again and go through 3 years of babble. What amazed me is how it brought back memories I had forgotten, because like here, we often talked of home and family life. Twice our gaming squad met personally and several of us even went to a funeral of one of our friends. I even found a thread I started with pics of the birth of my son...how cool. Time past, people slowly moved on until everyone went their separate way

It made me appreciate this forum even more. Who knows, years down the road, I'll come back and relive more memories. Keep it going Neal...!

I hope subsim stays an active and lively forum like this for a long time :up:

I often feel that way about The Grey Wolves and will always cherish the memories of when some of us met in person for the first time at the 2008 SubSim Meet in Texas :sunny:

Looking forward to meeting TarJak again this summer and a few new faces from here.

[Wolferz]

And bromance ensued.:03::O:

[Jimbuna]

Patrick Fitzwilliam and William Fitzpatrick.

[nikimcbee]

I hope the site still remains popular, even with the lack of any new naval games really being produced.:nope:

I still gotta meet Steed, and I need to buy Jim and Tarjak a beer.
It has been nice to meet a few people, Steve, August, Neal was cool too.:D

[nikimcbee]

I still want to meet Torplexed. One, I owe him a beer for doing my sigs. Too bad he's not here anymore:wah:. I wonder what happen to him? I hope everything is okay, and he just moved on.

So you're saying I need to go to Costco and buy a pallet of NBA for you.

Of course. Just don't by Fosters, or he'll drink that first.

You're excited to met TarJak AGAIN......Really? This is the same Tarjak we know on the forum? Maybe he'll wear a wig this time..

There's only one. And I'm very good :03:

[vienna]

...and well known for his modesty and humility... :D


<O>

[nikimcbee]

and well known for his modesty


Modesty is a mode of dress and deportment intended to avoid encouraging sexual attraction in others; actual standards vary widely. In this use, it can be considered inappropriate or immodest to reveal certain parts of the body.
...or lack there of.:o

:haha:

[vienna]

Definitions, now? You've been hanging around with Sailor Steve again in the reference section?


<O>

You're thinking of the grammar Nazi.

With Tarjak you'll need to clarify your definition.
:know:
:k_confused:

[Armistead]

If you only knew!:D

I'm glad I finally reached that age where I feel I don't always have to know.

[Herr-Berbunch]

Or define your clarification?

Excellent idea...you'll live longer that way :)

[Jimbuna]

Of course. Just don't by Fosters, or he'll drink that first.

Three cases in the garage if I'm to be honest :)

Aye, the memories...first morning in the US we were first up so we took a nearby metro into Houston but couldn't find a bar that was open so we simply walked until we found one that was...The Flying Saucer IIRC, it had NBA on draught and was absolutely awful which proves only bottled beers usually travel the world and maintain their original taste.

Gave you a taste of Coopers Sparkling Ale which you weren't keen on either then we settled on bottled Paulaner IIRC.

Yes, I have to agree, forums and their communities are special places. Just think, we came into a new social medium (Internet forums) nearly at the beginning. I wish I had some way to go back and capture the data from the Subsim EZboard and Matt's phpBB days. Still, having archives from 2002 forward is pretty cool.
