Bonsai kittens rock my toe socks. I have five.

But even more awesome is that we have Eddie back.

Hello, sir.

Dark Hood, Dark Hood... Didn't you play a human in the Oddworld RPG and you had a Flame Thrower as a weapon? Or am I thinking of someone else?

Seriously, it's good when old members return. Even if they were part of the Glass Asylum group who vowed to "Never Return". So are you guys living together? If so how long until you guys get married? Ha ha ha. Anyway it's good to see that you guys are together. I don't care how lame internet hook ups are because it's always good when two people find love.

Eh, I was exclusive to The Glass Asylum for a while. :D

Only if they tell each other. *pain*

Aaaaand. . . I'm back from Germany after having a wonderful time there. :) Was fun, I'll write about it on my Deviantart site later or something.

And yeah, maybe I did say that I'd never come back when all the stuff about the TGA/OWF split started, but that was ages ago. Then TGA collapsed and I buggered off to Furcadia and (later) World of Warcraft. lol, figures.

Still, times have changed, and hey, it's the Internet. :P Things like that aren't too important anymore. Guess I'm here to stay. . . Need things to take my mind off missing her, too. Time to start spamming. :P

Eh. . . Yeah. Yeah, that was me. Except it was Anna who's character had a flamethrower. I was the one who had *scarey voice* white hot energy beams , fired from *gasp!* my MAGIC STICK OF DOOM! OMG!

. . . Mmm-hmm. Lack of imagination FTW. :)

Bullet Magnet 08-08-2006 12:24 PM

What was the TGA? I hear about it, but right now I can't think of what it could be...

AquaticAmbi 08-08-2006 07:41 PM

Do a search on The Glass Asylum. Read anything that comes up to see the drama that ensued, but the original introduction is a leaving thread by an old member named Danny, I believe.

DarkHoodness 08-09-2006 11:15 AM

Yeah, The Glass Asylum was where half of OWF went after Pilot kicked Sydney out of the OWF administion or something like that, even though he was the founder of OWF. It ripped the boards in two, but then they were kind of stagnant by then anyway if I remember correctly.

Makes me wonder if it was worth it or not though - Sydney then closed TGA down 'cause he couldn't be bothered to run it anymore. He could of given administration to someone else though and that made me and many others angry with him too. :P

Yay for Drama. All over some silly 'net forum. . . Hehe. :) But then this place has changed my life, so it's hardly silly in the end.

Statikk HDM 08-09-2006 03:37 PM

If they were stagnant then, what does that say about now?
I think Rettick played a part in that revolt, though he might of changed his name to Danny by then. I almost revolted/joined but I couldn't get TGA to let me in so I said screw it and stayed here. Aren't you happy?

Hobo 08-10-2006 02:47 AM

Wow. Some non-gay OWF members.

Don't flame me. It's an old in-joke for all the cool members.

Ok, me and Rich.

:(

DarkHoodness 08-10-2006 09:18 AM

If I remember correctly, the forums were a little stagnant before the split - It was ages after MO came out and Stranger wasn't on the horizon back then. Still, they're not stagnant now - Never seen them more lively except maybe 2002. Community spirit, Stranger and incomming OW movies FTW, I suppose. :D

BTW, don't I owe you guys some pictures or something?

Ah, fun times. :)

Romantic atmopshere, german right?

DarkHoodness 08-10-2006 04:06 PM

Uh-huh.

Funny that I don't miss Germany except for those lovely, endless horizon-stretching forests. Only her.

Fuzzle Guy 08-15-2006 07:08 AM

lol, yes, I've come back breifly. :P Hello to those (probably the older members who have been here for years) who recognise me. Well, actaully I doubt anyone here recocnises me, despite this place being my internet home since 2000 until late 2002/early 2003. I don't recocnise many people.

Anyway, I just want to say thankyou to those who were here during that time, and for being part of the huge community that we had back then. :) I'm very glad to of been a part of that too, and equally glad to have kept in touch with most of the friends that I made here during that time. I never forget the time I spent here, it changed my life, ramble, ramble, ramble, etc. :P

But getting straight to the point, I met someone specail on here back then too, and in some weird set of circumstances me and Alector have uh. . . Hooked up with each other. I'm writing this from Germany while being hugged by her. . . It's a really nice place. :) With beautiful people. . . Mmm. . . *sigh* :D

Anyway, Auf Wiedersehen! We'll post a photo or two later maybe. ;) Thankyou all for everything again though, people. You guys are life changers. :P

- DH

Aw. Sweet story.

I'm an oldie, does that mean this thanx is directed at me too :D

Alector 08-23-2006 01:08 AM

That's what I searched for. I really miss the time but we will see each other again anyway this year. The pictures were taken in the Palatinate Forest (Pfälzer Wald), the biggest forests in Germany. If you like nature and want to go somewhere to Germany in your vacations, forget big cities, come to these woods. hehe. *advert*

These days very really funny when we took the pictures and I miss them a lot. *sigh*
Thanks for listening to us, friends, I really appreciate this. *kiss*

(I look really stressed on these pictures. You could have changed the brightness/contrast! *pokes and runs away* XD )

Majic 08-24-2006 04:26 PM

Dude and dudette, congrats. It's always a blast to see some deserving people find their mate in the world.

DarkHoodness 08-24-2006 05:02 PM

Yeah, what Claudi said. :P The Palatinate forest is a massive, yet awesome place. Just don't all flock there at once and ruin it, alrighty? :D

Actaully I really, really miss it. . . Shame (most of) the woods around here in Essex are nothing like it at all. Less insects, no clear rivers or streams, no seemingly end-less trees in all directions, no boulders or rocks. . . But I suppose they have thier own beauty.

Thinking about it, perhaps the only reason I miss them is because I spent time in those forests being happy with someone I love. I've visted forests like that before (even if they weren't as vast) and not missed them too much. . . It's a weird, psychological thing. . . Hmm.

But enough rambling about stuff that'll bore people to death, I'm happy I went and that me and Claudia met each other. :P Well, once again, thanks for listening guys, thanks for making OWF what it is. . . Life is a weird thing and really I didn't expect to get something so specail and awesome out of an internet forum. . . Guess we'll both see what happens to us next. :)

Uh-huh.

/sleep

"You fall asleep. Zzzzz."

(BTW, *pokes Claudi back gently* There's nothing wrong with your appearance, sweetie. :) *nuzzles* Photos look fine on mine and Matt's screens. . .)
