New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

This is a place for new members to introduce themselves to the GT community.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

(When was the last time we had a new member - who stuck around - ...honestly?)

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

I'm preparing for Armageddon... just in case.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

I'm looking out my window for flying pigs and signs of hell freezing.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

I think that the last person who joined and is still around would be Foxxy.


And that was like.....how long ago?

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

around 2 years? im not sure

Ken Jennings was still tearing it up on Jeopardy.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

I say we have a recruitment drive.
Whoever can get the most members to stay active by a set time get a prize.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

well remember Mr.Coffee?

He was active fora good long time, then has not been heard of.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Yeah, he's my girlfriend's cousin. He got a job and a girlfriend. (That didn't stop me from coming here though. Pussy.)

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Well, what would be a good cheap prize for people here anyhow?

I mean its a nice forum and all, but we have basically gotten down to the same core people. And I mean haha I think we all get along in safe relationships at this point.

We need some fresh blood. Some good ole heated arguments. Some fire to these here forums.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

You know... I've tried to increase this forum's membership for the longest time, but I sort of came to the conclusion it's not really its purpose. I remember when I was an admin over at FunXbox and we had a very large community, and it suited the site well as at that time the Xbox was brand new and everyone needed a place to go and talk about it, and there really was only MSXbox and FunXbox. I guess my point is that this forum is sort of like old friends recounting stories in a pub. It's meant to be a small grouping.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Too true my silent friend, too true.

But there are new people occasionally who get introduced at pubs as here nobody really new.


And it seems that slowly the core group is slowly dying down.


Anybody up for making a list of the main members still around nowadays? I would like to know how many there is exactly

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

I nominate Foxy or Swany to make a list of the core posters.

And I love Bond's point. We're kind of like Cheers. Where everybody knows your name.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Shotgun not doing it!



FOxxy is the noobtron(by like a week or two) he should do it

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

jerk. :P

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

I was thinking about the number of people here a few days ago and I think this "pub" thing is kind of nice.

But I also think that people leave because we really don't welcome them. The core members always talk to their older friends, the new members' posts seem to get ignored, and the new members feel left out.

I sometimes feel the same way, but I really don't care :p

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

We love you Bube!

By the way, are you studying to be a doctor?

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Hey that was nice. And creepy, lol :)

Yes, I'm studying to be a doctor :) Why?

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Isn't it ironic that in a thread designated for new members, all we've done is talk about the lack of them?

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Just curious. What kind of doctor?

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

You mean my specialty? That happens after I graduate. Although I want something like microbiology :)

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Then you should read The Andromeda Strain, by Michael Crichton.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

I like book recommendations - I'll add it to my list. Why did you recommend it though?

And this thread has gone very off-topic. I feel guilty.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Hi, I am Pirate at 30! Bond is on my friend's list. I play way too many games!

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

welcome!

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Hulloooo there! I say I play way too few games. Damned work and living in reality :D. What's your occupation?

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Welcome! Glad you found it here. :)

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Welcome to GT!

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

I work in IT, do lots of reporting and fun stuff like that.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Welcome, friend!

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

The Andromeda Strain was Michael 'Jurassic Park' Crichton his first book. His great quality is making science fun and fiction believable.

It's about some weird micro-organism that causes some trouble. :) It's not his best book by far, but still a very nice read.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

I still hang around from time to time, I work as a manager for a crazy internet cafe...and yeah girlfriend...and im grading this year, and i got accepted to ufv into their computer science degree program...:D

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Hahah, good to see you back!

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Aye,
I have been meaning to drop by and see whats up, but everything is so busy right now its very difficult to get anything done . . . even gaming, I no longer own a wii or a ds, just a psp which i hardly use except for movies and music. Anyway off to bed!

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

What? How could you get rid of both your Wii and the DS? Mario Kart Wii is awesome.

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

some one offered me $475 and a brand new psp slim in the box for everything, needless to say i took it and am very satisfied with my decision, i love the multimedia part of my PSP and the games are cool same with the graphics. Other than that I play Mark Kart Wii / Brawls on the same wii cause the guy who bought it from me is a good friend...:P I am satisfied with the internet cafe to play with ahah!

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
 

Damn. I would've taken that offer, too. Then I would have turned around and bought another Wii and DS and pocketed the extra cash.

Welcome to GT, bellco. Hope you enjoy your stay here. I really like your console scores - although I don't agree with the 360 :)

Re: New Members: Introduce Yourself!
