You know...with how frequent some styles of Threads are....they almost merit their own Forum Section.
For instance... Sliver Guns Smart Links Dikote Allied Spirits (*snicker*) Cyberware etc..etc... |

Well, thanks for including the newcomers like me ;) Strangely enough I've been in the right place at the right (wrong?) time for enough links to get a decent chunk of the thread, though. ~J |

Don't let it go to your head ... it's only because the join dates don't go back any further. :P ;) |

But he could have started off by specifying 26-Feb. Not that he would have, having joined some eighteen days before me :P

I'm just ignoring that part, having been in-transit that particular month, and hence missing the change-over. :P :D

You did mention it, but you include 2002 in general and then specify subgroup FEB-26 for special recognition, as opposed to having FEB-26-02 be the only recognized group.

I figure that you're old-hat if you remember all the "fun" with the lounge. :please: Ancient membership if you remember Bulldrek's attachment (which I don't) A resident if you used the coffee colored version And rather odd if you don't have a "job" at Dumpshock if you were around before that. |

I think you'd be surprised at the number of still-current members who have been around since the Deep Resonance days, albeit some under different Aliases. :) |

I know they used to be available, but somewhere along the line I think they were lost in the ether. :(

I guess that's one downside to the internet. No real chance for a 'museum' concept of it's content. |

Some under the same alias ;) And odd has nothng to do with it. "Internet proficient" combined with "addicted to shadowrun" is all you need. Wait, maybe that does make me odd. Drats! Oh, here's one: credit to those who saw the birth of SMITING, or even know what it is :twirl: |

Ancient SMITES Stumps.
A small bolt of lightning causes Stumps' left testicle to violently explode. AH whispers to Stumps :S "Now you know." |

Bah. The first dikoted AVS ally spirit sex thread was what gave All-Wing the power to defeat Verjigorm.

1) You know what NERPS means. Double points if you you've explained it to a "newb." :)
2) You've read a newb's bellicose post and responded by telling him or her the "ettiquette rules" of the 'Shock. Double points if you crossed your fingers and hoped no one would point out how you were the same way when you started. 3) You no longer get excited when you get a personal invite to an online game. 4) You've changed your screen name more than once to aviod hate posts. 5) You no longer think AH is a GOD (just a brilliant man. Or a room full of monkeys with typewriters.) [aside: I still think you're the man :)] 6) Another DSer references you in a post to make point. (;)) 7) You no longer think its cool when another DSer references you in a post to make a point. 8 ) You've met Adam (or any admin) in RL. 9) You have Adam's (or any admin's) cellular device number. Double points if you have used it. 10) You're office mates can recognise the 'Shock when its up on your screen. 11) You don't care. 12) During meetings you spend your time planning your reponse to a post. 13) You have been suspened from the 'Shock. 14) You wonder what happend to Sub Rosa (or anyone that spent most of his or her time in the Lounge). 15) You've had a battle of witts (or wills) with Polaris. Double points if you came out even. Triple points if you came out on top. 16) You've actually completed a "Welcome to the Shadows" run. Double points if you were the GM. 17) You spent last New Year's Eve engaged in the Human's vs. Horrors flame war. You know who you are. :P 18) You know how to search the Old Forums. Double points if you are actually good at it. 19) You've posted a link to a older thread in response to often repeated question (skillwires, shotguns, decking, rigging, the AVS, sleeping with your Dikoted Ally Spirit, etc.) Double points if you didn't feel smug while doing so. 20) You took the time to read this post. Double points if you responded. |

Normally, if Polaris completely ignored your last post, you've won by default.
And kevynn668, #5 is nice of you to say! #14 is intimately connected with a lot of issues, including a very memorable fuck-up and make up by yours truly. I still revere Neuron Basher, Adam, Pistons, et al. Next to them, I'm a newb. :dead: |
