Default Life on the Forum

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 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

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

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

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.

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

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