Skazz Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 Excuse a dumb question, for my rookie status is showing: who is Eldar?

Blarghagh Posted June 3, 2018 Author Posted June 3, 2018 Ah, Oby. That brings back memories. Horrible, horrible memories. Still waiting for Walsingham to come back. 3

majestic Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 This is like watching a Monty Python sketch where every guy has been replaced by Eric Idle. You might not guess it by the description of TrueNeutral, but there were worse things than oby. There once was a forum romance so terrible it shook the foundations of this board, setting fire to unburnable things and striking terror even into the most steadfast of hearts. But the storm has passed and Bruce now sits, every day, lost in loneliness pining for Qis, Destroyer of the West. 8 No mind to think. No will to break. No voice to cry suffering.
Guard Dog Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 Now THAT was funny. Skazz you may not realize it but there are people on this very forum who have been posting together for nearly 20 years. Most of whom have never met each other. All the ups and downs of life. Victories and defeats. Good RPGs and bad ones (more of the latter) flame wars and cold peace, these folks have seen it all. And every once in a while we might get a tad misty-eyed remembering folks who don't come around anymore. And a few like Sand, Tarna, Kelverin and others who are no longer with us. 6 "While it is true you learn with age, the down side is what you often learn is what a damn fool you were before" Thomas Sowell
Skazz Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 Sure, I get that. And that’s fine. All I’m trying to say is that it’s completely incomprehensible to a random passerby like me.
Blarghagh Posted June 3, 2018 Author Posted June 3, 2018 Sure, I get that. And that’s fine. All I’m trying to say is that it’s completely incomprehensible to a random passerby like me. Don't worry. I missed all that Black Isle stuff too. I haven't been here that long - just 14 years. 1
Keyrock Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) I didn't mind Oby that much. His posts were completely ludicrous and borderline incomprehensible, but they were entertaining. Qistina, on the other hand, posted with all the ludicrous anti-west propaganda of a Oby post, but with much more vitriol and none of the entertainment value. I've only been here 6 years, so I got to witness some... interesting stuff, but missed much of the stuff of legend the old timers talk about.

Orogun01 Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 Ah, Oby. That brings back memories. Horrible, horrible memories. Still waiting for Walsingham to come back. Yeah, I miss dear old Walshie. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
Gorth Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 I wonder if Wals and Oby was the same person... like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde were the same person “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

I missed all that Black Isle stuff too. I haven't been here that long - just 14 years. I had been stalking NMA for years before I signed up there, I think the first time I went there was to read Pers guide. It was probably in the late 90's, took me years to gather the courage to sign up there, but the need to rant about F3 became to big eventually.

Bartimaeus Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Don't ever buy anything online from WalMart. They sent me the wrong item, and for whatever reason, they have absolutely 100% steadfastly refused to authorize a return and refund for their mistake over the past month. Thankfully, I never go to WalMart to begin with, but this cements it as policy. Quote How I have existed fills me with horror. For I have failed in everything - spelling, arithmetic, riding, tennis, golf; dancing, singing, acting; wife, mistress, whore, friend. Even cooking. And I do not excuse myself with the usual escape of 'not trying'. I tried with all my heart. In my dreams, I am not crippled. In my dreams, I dance.

Lexx Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Maybe Oby was fired from the russian propaganda institution because we didn't took him serious enough. Kinda makes me feel bad. 1 "only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."
Azdeus Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 Maybe Oby was fired from the russian propaganda institution because we didn't took him serious enough. Kinda makes me feel bad.

Raithe Posted June 4, 2018 Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) I know Wals is buried under workload, and has said he's unlikely to spend much time lurking on the forum on the little free time he has now, although he does occasionally turn up on Steam. Alas, tis the way of the world, even ForumLurkers evolve and have to juggle the mundane nature of life at times..... Edit: In fact, Wals has told me to convey his compliments to the forum and inform you all that he is currently deep within the internet, hunting Oby with a 577/450 Elenctic action rifle.
