No more Alson, Dundee and other gurus. Just newbies asking too many questions. 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. [/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. 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]

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 , 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.
