Intro
 
Hello everyone, i'm obviously a new poster here. I love the idea of a msg board rather than a chat room, because it gives us away to keep track of all the other oddworld fans. I started playing Abes Oddysee about 2 or three months after it came out and loved it so much. The social satire of the game was so intelligent and humorus at the same time that i instantly fell in love. Those feelings were only intensified by Abes Exoddus. I bought a PS2 just because Munch was supposed to come out for it (as i'm sure many of you did) ans am now selling the inferior machine to finish paying off my x-box. I don't know how long the intros usually are, so i won't tak eup too much space with BS. I'm a very open person and tend not to hold much back, so if you have a question about me or something i've said then please ask me. Oh, sorry about the tag, but it's something i live by and so it's a sort of nessecary evil, if you will.

*ports in, glides down, and lands in front of the newcomer*

Hello *bows* allow me to be the first to welcome you here. I am Dragadon, on the residence dragons on this board. Oh and don't worry...I don't bite...though you might want to be careful of my rather crazy characters...who like to invade my posts once in a while...

*A red Drakkic with fluffy white fur runs through, with a lighter green one chasing him*

Malice: ARGH! get away from me!

Kilk: Aw come on Mal...a few pink bows will go perfectly with that fur!

um...excuse me while I rescue one of my characters...*runs off after the two*

(oh and not to nitpick...but someone is going to mention it soon enough. Your sig is a bit too big. Go -here- to see the size restrictions on sigs... Ta and have fun here)

Welcome! isn't your signature too large?

Guten Tag, Bonjour, Hello
Welcome!

(someone get the crucifix ready, we've got another one!)

Yes, my sig WAS too long and i apologize for that. It's fixed now. Hopefully people will still be able to sort of understand what it's about.

Welcome to the forums! At last, a nice intelligent intro instead of the huge piles of cack we sometimes get!

I'm Middlesboogie, your friendly neighbourhood avatar of Surrealism. If I start rambling about psychotic crystal butterflies of truth, it's just part of my job description.

It's a shame you had to sell your PS2. You could've bought WipEout Fusion (if I wasn't telling you now, you'd soon learn that I am OBSESSED with WipEout). Oh well, owning two consoles isn't for everyone.

You said you were open to questions... so, what's your favourite Oddworld creature? Favourite level? Spill the metaphorical beans! :D

welcome to the forums!

thank you all for the warm welcome (although the line about me being "seemingly intelligent" was a bit questionable). I've never found a forum where i feel comfortable posting on a regular basis. but since two days ago i just can't stop from coming back. This is very reminicent of my younger D&D days. you know...... when you feel half-way addicted to something because it's so damn interesting? hopefully so, because if not then you're going think i'm a bit insane (which i do NOT freely admit to )anyway, to answer the question about my favorite creature...... it would proabably be the blind mudokons because they represent the people who have no choice but to be lead around in this world. the people who have been taught to be so submissive that they instinctively follow anything they're told even if it's completely detrimental to them as a person. in real life i hate those people, but i love the fact that oddworld is so deep of a game as to include them in it. as for my favorite level..... it has to be the last level in AE. you have to keep running and eveerything has to be almost perfect. a serious gamers bliss.

Hi Conzumah... welcome to Oddworld Forums! We hope you enjoy your time here and that we make you welcome enough to keep coming back! :)

*Hands Conzumah an Abe action figure*

Oh, they don't have them yet, oh well, I guess it's the thought that counts!

Welcome to the forums, Conzumah, I'm sure you'll enjoy your stay here. I understand your addictive feeling. I visit this forums at least a couple of times every day for almost a year.
