Here we are...Goddamn, I was 19 when I joined BIS Boards.

 

...wow, Tess; she be the spit o' her Mum!!...funny how we's watched each other grow...or in me case get ol' 'n' gray... ;(

 

 

...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

A long, long time ago, but I can still remember,
How the Trolling used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance, I could egg on a few Trolls to "dance",
And maybe we'd be happy for a while.
But then Krackhead left and so did Klown;
Volo and Turnip were banned, Mystake got run out o' town.
Bad news on the Front Page,
BIOweenia said goodbye in a heated rage.
I can't remember if I cried
When I heard that TORN was recently fried,
But sadness touched me deep inside,
The day...Black Isle died.


For tarna, Visc, an' the rest o' the ol' Islanders that fell along the way

But at least you're not old and gray in your heart. :p

I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man

Don't know what possessed me to check back in here today, but glad I did. It's nice to see that some of the old faces are doing well for themselves.

I'm glad you did too. Who knows, maybe we'll get that Blackisle reunion eventually afterall!

I think this would be hilarious/amazing. Contrary to what I was told growing up, all the people I have met off the internet have actually been pretty fun and no one tried to murder me, sooo.... victory??

 I know! One of my brothers actually thought he would never see me again when I met Ace for the first time, lol! Probably disappointed when I eventually showed up again. :getlost:

Maybe an Apocalypse Cow intervened...

 

:p

Definitely! My online D&D group that has been playing together for 7-8 years now had as far as I know never actually met up in person before one of the group got married and invited the rest of us out to be most of the wedding party. No murders at all except for my voice from all the cheering.

So who wants to get married and invited everyone to their wedding? :p

 

Or maybe is already married and wants to invite everyone to their renewal of their vows ceremony. :p

Hello?

Some quick research shows that this person is actually likely not a bot, but probably an old member from the Interplay forums, since the name "bloggyelf" appears as credited on some ancient Infinity Engine-related guides. More specifically, they're credited as being "the best of the best naysayer" by one Jarno Mikola, who is an absolute ******** ******** ***** ******** in the Infinity Engine community, so I can only assume that this means bloggyelf is actually good people...but I don't know for sure, :yes:.

(e): Luckily, he's not a member here, so it is not against the rules to call him what he is, :thumbsup:.

Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

What can you tell me about the stolen Ambrosia ?

I feel fairly sure that I am not a bot, though I cannot claim to remember myself.  

 

How do I get off of the 'every post has to be approved by a mod' status?

You have to have 5 posts (I think its 5), but posts in WOT don't count towards your post total.
