Well I stopped posting once I uninstalled BG2. Yes it acutally happend. :D And there are no more interesting discussions on BG2 boards. No more Alson, Dundee and other gurus. Just newbies asking too many questions. :D
I lurk now. Me? Yes I LURK! I do NOT SPAM ANYMORE! [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

What happened to Alson and Dundee? Their mass debates ( [img]graemlins/blush.gif[/img] ) were the stuff of legend. Along with Sir Exxon, SixOfSpades and a few more that aren't coming to mind at the mo'? Haven't been to BG2 forum since i've been back. Well over two years now. </font>[/QUOTE]I too really miss the debates of old! Number crunching threads to determine what was the best class kit/spell/item/weapon etc etc occupied many an hour and created many interesting and intelligent dabates, but the BG2 forums have definatley slowed as of late (the game is now around 4-5 years old is it not? had to happen sometime).

I've been posting under my other alias of Zink Whistlefly as of late and have been trying to breathe a little life into a few of the forums (mainly NWN) but things have definately slowed down. I'm quite surprised at how little activity there is around Neverwinter Nights (which is currently in the top 3 of the favourite games poll), and I've never seen any number crunching threads or raging debates based around NWN spells/weapons/classes etc like we used to have in the BG2 forum. To say the NWN forum covers the OC, both expansion packs and all the premium modules/third party modules, I can pretty much count the number of daily posts in there on 1 hand which does surprise me given the game is still extremely popular :( .

As soon as the new generation of games hit us things should perk up a little as people have already discussed so we just need to be patient.

Hmm, i've seen Zink Whistlefly around quite a bit lately. [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img] I'm glad i didn't try and discourse upon IW politics to a n00b or anything equally stupid. :rolleyes: But why the alias?

And while we're on the subject, how many other doppelgangers are pullin' shifties on the poor unsuspecting folk of IW? Go on. Reveal yourselves [img]tongue.gif[/img] :D

Haha! For the sole reason that when I created my original account, time was short and I needed to ask some questions and didn't spend any time whatsoever coming up with a creative name. If there was an award for most unoriginal name ever, that would have to go to me so something needed to be done about it (1100 posts and 4 years later [img]redface.gif[/img] ) That's the only reason, nothing more, nothing less [img]smile.gif[/img]

Ahem, in the form of donations of course. ;) But either way, i'm sure if you had a good reason like, say, a boring name :D , he'd change it for you. Wouldn't he?

Don't be so full of yourself, Link. Or I'll dig up some old Ranger stuff. ;)
