Not sure anyone would remember me, but seeing so many usernames I remember sure is a nostalgia trip.
GW was a massive part of my life as a teenager. Feels so strange to be posting again!
Glad everyone is doing well
christ bumping this topic
Been with GW for 12 years which is half of my life! 25 now. Initially joined GW for game development stuff but got involved with the Soldat sub community here so only soldat players would probably really know who I am. Currently going to college to become a network admin, figured I'd get sick of playing video games if I were to ever go into that field.
Ahhhhhhh Myst!!! Soldat!!!
I don't know why, but I clicked on the GW Forums link I still had bookmarked just now, and decided I should post here for old time's sake. I don't think I'll ever delete the bookmark. GW was an important part of my younger years and I still feel like you guys are part of my extended family. I hope everyone's life is going great!
Yes, the movie is about a queen. The movie's protagonist is her younger sister, which still makes it a princess movie.
You wouldn't be arguing this about Beauty and the Beast not being a princess movie because the Beast isn't a princess. Hell, Belle wasn't even technically a princess until like, the very last five minutes. Don't go talkin' smack to folks about things you are so clearly ignorant about. (furthermore, don't try and know more about princess movies and throw around the "bitch" slur in the same sentence, bitch)
It's great to see you again, it's been so long. How does it feel to have a princess movie made about your life?
Are there actually places like GW classic around? like people earnestly wanting to make 200 hour RPGs in RPGmaker with fully symphonic scores and voiced dialogue and epic stories and then getting 2 screens into it while people beg for updates
If it wasn't for GW members I probably would have been a snob when it came to music for the rest of my life. I used to be this introverted kid who thought any music other than oldies and jazz was "music the ruffian kids listened to." Then DarkPriest would smack us in the face with some of his symphonic metal tastes and I'm all like, "I kinda dig this."Symphonic metal was fucking badass, I still listen to that, I also like bands/groups like tool, vast, vnv nation and some other bands I can't remember the name of.
also, ice points? I don't remember that.
GW also helped me break away from my teenage music tastes (Would I have discovered Jazz if not for someone uploading Bitches Brew in the premium section??? I think not! Here was one of the places where I first heard Zappa, my love of whom is all consuming.)
Oh, my bad. I thought it was it's own dependant word. I knew it was based off a typo of the word, but didn't think people used the misspelling to mean it's similar word's meaning.Q May I have special forums title please :>You can set your member title in your profile???? Or do you mean something else?I'm still wondering when "fafg" became an actual slur word... if even a real word at all. Back in the day, it used to be a universally accepted inside joke via the GW community.Yes, it was a universally accepted joke based on the word "fag". It was a misspelling of the word "fag" and it caught on. It's OK if you didn't realize that at first, but just take my word for it, we don't particularly like hearing it. There was a time, years ago, when Raz actually made an emotive appeal to get people to stop saying fag and he was pretty much laughed right out of the room. That's just not how we are anymore. We've grown up.
I still keep track of my icepoints man. Currently I'm on -3I don't care for uneven numbers so you're granted an additional -7.
Hey there. I'm IceSage.
I wasn't that important but I did technically have control over 90% of Gaming World for absolutely no reason for a period of time and did absolutely nothing with it... Except give myself 999999 GW Points to myself via the admin panel (that had 0 security on it), but did nothing with them, as I secretly wished they were IcePoints instead.
I also had gay IRC sex with Mekesss, and was once in possession of a picture of Treesock's tits.
I also jerk off to Foget porn while simultaneously playing "Santa's Sled Racin' Mark II" in my spare time.
You have the ability to give off ice points you just need to gain back your powers....
Also hi Welcome back friend.... kind of funny yesterday Frankie was wounder where ice points came from when he was play testing the TOG pack for Barkley 2
