Re: 1st
Wow. Five freaking years. Thanks Rip. Thanks setaside. Thanks Peacedog. Thanks ImLawBoy. Thanks godhugh. Thanks Gedd. FishPants, SirReal, Arcanis. Thanks $iljanus, Bakhtosh, Blackhawk, MHS, EvilHomer3k, Austin, Preacher, Zaxxon, LawBeefaroni. And thanks to every one of you out there (or in some cases really really out there) who brings so much into my life each time I log in. Smirk or smarm; interest, intrigue, or intelligence; padding or pointy elbows; or or or . Thanks (for) OO.

By the way, two of the images in my last post are big images. Click 'em to see the full size. If you missed the OO wallpapers the first time around, now's your chance.

Re: 1st
Huh. I had no idea I joined only a month after this place had been created. I mean, I read about how the forum came about (Gone Gold, etc.) and stuff when I joined, in various threads. But I thought it had been around at least 6 months before I joined. I guess not. Interesting.
I had posted a thread at Home of the Underdogs asking if anyone knew of a good PC Game-centric forum. I believe it was a guy named Flash that sent me here. If you're still around, thanks Flash!
And thanks, OO!

Re: 1st
I believe when GG went down I had an email address after trading a game with someone on there. I believe it was that British fella Simon. He pointed me to OO. Glad he did. Where is he by the way?
Currently thinking of something clever.........

Yeah, reading through the thread from the beginning I feel like I should pour out a 40 for all the people who are no longer with us.KingB wrote:I believe when GG went down I had an email address after trading a game with someone on there.

But I'm damned glad to still be virtually hanging out with the lot of you.

Almost took me a week! And oh, what a sad, boring week that was.Lassr wrote:tomorrow will be 5 years for me. Yeah, took me a whole day to find this place after GG died.
I was talking to a friend about people I had met online and one friend in particular I met through GG... And then I realized just how long ago that was.
Happy birthday OO! Looking forward to the next 5 years.

Re: 1st
Now I get it. You did it wrong, though. You are supposed to give us wood, and that picture is the antithesis of that.
I still want to know why 70s guy has three penises.
