About the fact that I can barely see my link again? Yes. (Might do some more tweaking there, but I remember what happened last time...)

Go right ahead! Just take a lesson from Rafiki and learn from the past.

Why are they even concerned with our move to a new forum? I find the fact that they have lurked around here really hilarious too.



HI_L U R K E R S

We've also exceeded the thousand post mark in under five days. Five days! That's insane!

Over a third of those are us, Stu.

Ooh.

Well, at least we're making ourselves known.

The current view out of my front door:

Did someone build that or did the car run over a snowman and the top bit flew perfectly onto the roof? :bom:

As brilliant as that second scenario would have been, it was the first one.

My computer... IT LIVES.

M PS3 IT'S FROZEN! Right in the middle of playing Uncharted as well

Yay for mandlecreed's computer, boo for shanks's PS3! My computer is on its last legs as we speak... I've got a replacement waiting in the wings, but am too lazy to do anything with it!

It's not so bad now It's only frozen twice (today) seemingly at a important part of the game.
Going to put in Uncharted 2 and see what happens and if it does it again then I think there might be something wrong

Still quite a feat of engineering, I haven't enough snow to build a snow baby let alone an adult one.

So, hey, long time no see friends and forumites.

How's everyone been keeping?

What hoy, Jammy! Er... Jammoy. How's the world?

Yo yo! Jay! How's it hangin'? Welcome!

mandle: I'm glad your PC is back in the land of the living.

shanks: Do you have an original phat PS3 like mine? The mortality rate for Phats is beginning to worry me...

DUCK: The snowman was hoisted from the car onto the lawn shortly after without being damaged.

Balla: Life's been fine and merry. I've just been overwhelmed with uni work, started back last week and I'm already being bombarded with essays. How's things with you?

Stu: Very well! Nice place we have here! Care to bring me up to speed with the goings-on at the good ship NGamer GNamer?

To give a very brief explanation:

NGamer mag goes bust > NGamer's online mag thing gets pulled > NGamer Forum announced for imminent closure > Everyone hops to this forum > Chris Scullion (we think) saves NG Forum at eleventh hour > Things have already kicked off here in an unbelievably rapid fashion > We now have two forums > GNamer currently seems to be pwning NGamer at its own game.

That's a sad tale - I knew about the mag going bust but I was under the impression the site was performing pretty well. Chris seemed to have a handle on things over there. It certainly seems to be far busier over here than my last visit to the ol' forums. Is it still quiet over there?

And I'm an admin.!

Stu pretty much covered everything. What course are you doing? Bear in mind that as a maths graduate, I laugh at anyone and everyone who does essays.

NGamer Forum is Tumbleweed Grand Central at the moment. It's a bit sad to see it like that.

What do you post there, though? Almost anything would get more attention here.

Yep. That seems to be the current way of things. If you posted something, it would likely be ignored/devoid of real discussion like you'd get here.

May the Lord have mercy on us all.

And what course am I studying? Um... English Literature don't judge me.

That's the concern I'd have with trying to post both here and there - what would be the point, considering it would be seen by more here anyway?
