First heard about Subsim.com when looking for info on silent hunter 2, sometime early in 2003. I spent a couple of months lurking before I decided to register for keeps
I have to say, that although my intial interest was from a gaming point of view, I seem to spend more time in GD than anywhere else... especially since I don't have SHIII installed anymore
Googled for SHII and subsim was practically top of the list, if memory serves..
I remember folks being friendly and welcoming to a n00b looking for SHII mods hehe
Couldn't tell you what software the forum was using... er, it was black lol
I have always had the same username here (and a few other sites also)
Kinda feels like home here, bit like an old comfortable shoe, but one which has been re-soled recently
One thing I'm especially glad of:
the 'submit' & 'preview post' buttons have not moved... with all the different forum software out there I'm very used to 'submit' being on the left and 'preview post' on the right; the times I have posted when I wanted to preview when using other forums! at least here I can feel safe that my familiarity with the board will not show me up as a fool :rotfl:
