    Because everyone needs somewhere to discuss quake and quake related issues. Like if the grappling hook is a good / bad thing.

    My reason for joining boards is similar to yours. It's a fairly good place for info and topics from an irish perspective.

    What age were you in 1999 when I started lurking here before finally joining in 2002. Odds are you were a school kid. That's what I meant. I was Self depracating about how much of a boards old fart I am, as much as anything else :D

    It's a fire hazard. And you with a lack of warning devices....

    In 1999 I was well out of school, early twenties! I'm an old fart too..just very late in discovering that I can escape from reality to forums such as this!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 71,802 ✭✭✭✭Ted_YNWA


    Don't really know why I joined, but 12K posts later I am still here.

    Boards is worse than Hotel California.

    I'm slightly pissed that I am not allowed to post in one of the most popular forums here until I have 50 posts. Not being allowed to post images, links is a pain.

    I hear what you are saying. Well, just the "I'm slightly pissed" part.

    I'm slightly pissed you see.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,570 ✭✭✭Mint Aero


    Boards was a calling for me. I'm an entity which exists only in AH. I'll soon transcend. I have many legions of adoring fans here....soon they will know my wrath.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,622 ✭✭✭Ruu


    Refreshing threads like the issues on unemployment and social welfare. Not to mention the boards groupies, some wild times there.
