Also no one mentioned the basement fittage guy: USSEnterpise

or

The original oregano dude: Floyd10

and I'm sure there are quite a few more that were entertaining like that pigeonhawk --cream-filled twinkie-- with the megapixel signature

Some damned interloper trekked out to the Fortress o' Solicitude and spilled the beans about these yokels being missed so they all thought it was cool to come back.

Bones, DrewKaree, shmokes, Joymonkey

A few others whose usernames are escaping me at the moment.

Oh, yeah, and saint.   8)

Missioncontrol, Goz, pointdablame, Santoro and Stringray were great to have here as well. I know I am missing more names myself. Can someone go get these guys back out of their fortress of solitude for more than the occasional random post?

I miss Mikezilla. Good guy, great stories about as random as mine. (Bed wetting GF comes to mind.   :laugh2: ) Reminds me of a college roommate I had.

And of course the rants from Donkbaca were priceless. The Centipede/moon patrol rants were so damn enjoyable after hearing threads of endless love for every game of that era. It was entertaining to finally see someone vocal about hating a game. Things got crazy with him in the mix.

I come here for the social interactions more than the video game building, to be honest.

 :cheers: Same here.

Some of us just lurk now a days Vigo. Its funny that most of the guys you mentioned in the the thread that I quoted I communicate with regularly. We are all still around except for Donkbaca (As far as I know)

You were the one who wandered away from The Fortress of Solitude. The screen door is still open if you ever want to wander back.

The door isn't open for Chad. I believe we added a security screen door covered in plywood improperly loaded and boxes of alcohol guarding the inside of the door to make sure he wouldn't get in and if he did then he wouldn't stay.

well his is a stolen name from our forum. He's kind of unoriginal that way and his is really lame.

Oregano and nyquil.... That would be Floyd10 and for your reminiscing pleasure:

Level42 and Spyridon.

These two guys were not only amazing at their restorations, but their threads were like like reading a great journey from buying/picking-up the cabs, to getting it to minty playable condition.   :notworthy:
I see them post very seldom now. :'(
