It`s amazing how quickly time can go.
It seems like sometime last month that I bought Icewind Dale and BG2 from a megamarket near Sydney. But that was an age ago, now. It seems like last week that, after a long while of being fed up with search engines, that I found somewhere that could help me with my problems. It seems like last week that I asked for help in IWD, and finally got something more than a walkthrough, something that actually applied to my specific problem. It seems like last week that I started to get the same style of tutoring for BG2. It seems like last week that I found Ironworks. But that was a year ago, now. It seems like just yesterday that someone noticed my brother`s sense of humour infused into every post I made, and wasn`t too impressed... I remember the help I got time after time. I remember my first glimpse of HTML. I remember the realisations of things I hadn`t noticed - "What the &^%* is the OHF ?? :|" I well remember learning - the hard way - that getting 2 hours of sleep a night for 4 weeks doesn`t leave you the most sociable person on the net. I remember the good times, I remember the bad. A year with Ironworks - memories are good. It`s amazing how quickly time can go.

And now you will add another page to your life as the year 2003 moves toward us and the Ironworks forum lives on, This time to have you as one that may help another Gamer as he finds the world of the RPG, and the good people that have come together here to give each other that hand up when their computer dumps on them right in the middle of our Heros battle with Sarevok in the last chapter of Baldur's Gate 1 or help Haer Dalis save his friends escape the Astral Prison in Baldur's Gate II Shadows of Amn. Memories are all any of us really have in this life and they are the only thing that can never be taken away only forgotten when we no longer care. The Ironworks is an escape for many of us and the life line to many RPG games that most people will never understand because they are not the dreamers of high adventure in search of treasure and power and more memories in the worlds we save from Evil.

Err Lennon... have you been drinking?
Because this reminds me of 2 things: 1. Old people *shudder* 2. Drunken rambling
