When you first came into the NG forums, who did you see that made you think "Wow, they're cool" or "I wish I was like them".

I remember seeing browncow a lot, and thinking he was cool... I also remember earfetish as a level 12....

When I got around to posting regularly, I looked up to Steve and Dobio.

I'm not really a well known yet or anything.. But I'm no longer a newb. But I don't think I really looked up to anyone. I just tried to get to know who were regulars and I steered clear from pissing people off. But I still try not to piss people off.


I've been refurbished and reissued, prepackaged and precooked, decontaminated and deloused, but I still smell, sound, look and feel like shit.

New to the video game forums?

Well, because when you are a n00b, it's hard to find people who actually knew your name and stuff, and he always gave me a chance to spam. (Since back then, there was no mods and the place was absolute chaos.)

Of course, there was a few others, I just can't seem to remember them right now. I was more an independant n00b. It wasn't really looking up to him in that sense...

Oh, and I used to think Bedn was cool, because I saw the Bacon Burger movies and stuff, but, we all know how THAT turned out...

As a n00b I used to look up to Tanner and Dobio.

And now I would like to post something which took me a long time to write and which I didn't get a chance to post in the "Mods in general." post because it was locked.

"I have no problem with the mods. They're just doing their job, and sometimes people like their decisions, sometimes they don't. I remember posting a thread in General about a classic rock club (I meant to post it in C&C), and Tanner locked it, and that was the last I heard about it. There was no "stfu n00b" or anything. That was back in the days when he was calle Forever_Knight. I always liked that name. </nostalgia>

There has to be mods, or this BBS would just degenerate into general spamminess. And yes, that is a word. I just made it. :D

I try to follow the rules, and so far I haven't been banned. And, God willing, I never will be. But, if I do get banned, I will no doubt deserve it, and after the ban period I will get on with my life."


Help, I'm trapped inside this guy's signature!

Cool. Someone looks up to me and I get my own hate thread, all in the same day. Does that make me a regular now?

Forget myself really. Probably gfox and D0gma.

I think I looked up to Gfox and Newgrundling. I can't really remember though, since I have the memery of a downer child with alzheimers disease.

It's cool to hear what the people who people looked up to, looked up too. Oh and I was pretty independant seeing as I posted every once and awhile. Often irritating others.

You looked up to Jonas.
