John1918
Hello There,

First off, the name's John, if you couldn't guess that, you're a very 'special' person. The smiley-face could possibly seem familiar, I personally use it in a fair number of places, and I'm sure lots of others have too.

Last time I checked, I was American (Californian specifically), male, and a college student with 18 years under his belt...though I guess that could have changed without me being informed. rolleyes.gif

Been gaming since, a long time ago, and got rather hooked on the NES back in the day. Mainly a PC gamer these days, tried a couple of massively boring online games, but hated them, never touched WoW, nor have I held a die with more, or less, than six sides, unless...technically a coin is sort of like a die with two sides. o_0

Other random things to ramble off:
I like playing football, baseball, rugby, and many other things where people get hurt;
I'm a dog person more than a cat person;
I'm half Italian;
I enjoy cardgames and have run minor gambling associations in several schools;
I don't drink, smoke, or do any drugs;
I lift weights for fun;
I can be a very smooth talker, and have a knack for speaking to crowds;
And..I'm very good at attracting lots of trouble, though I luckily am good at dealing with such.

Anyways, that's a slice of John to brighten up your day, introduce me to you, or make you violently ill...whatever floats your boat. cool.gif

Can you withstand being mercilessly taunted, putdown, and/or gangraped? As that's everyone has to go through here.

No, no, I'm pretty sure thats mostly just Grym. But we could make the new guy wear the dress from now on?

Oh and tortured don't forget that. And I'm still looking for test subjects on my combining a person with a lizard.

Walk in the park, the question is, do you think you'd be able to walk after I'm done lad? wink.gif

Meh, I've probably worn something worse before. rolleyes.gif You get to do the alternations though, unless the grym one is very big for his age, I have doubts it would fit around me...maybe around one of my legs.

Me and torture go a long way back, hospitalizing physical injury too, mental scarring, and mindless destruction of proper...I wasn't supposed to reminisce...was I? unsure.gif

Hello John! rolleyes.gif Nice to meet you in the official-forum type of way!
John1918
A pleasure to introduce myself, well, a pleasure for myself, for the rest I you...I do not even attempt to fathom what it is. wink.gif

*wave* I'm Luka. smile.gif A short person.

I highly recommend owning dice with many sides. biggrin.gif

And I am jealous that you are in California! I want to borrow your sun and warmth.
icecold
let me find a appropriate smiley for that statement....

Now y'see, there's a difference between warm and hot. We rarely just get warm, warm is the time in the morning between ten and twelve. Sometimes not even that, sometimes it's hot at dawn until almost-dawn-again. For a few weeks in the summer, the only difference between day and night was light, the temperature stayed the same. Winter and the end of autumn is cool (not cold) at least. It actually dropped to fifty-six degrees the other day. It made me happy.
dante
Hey mine was a proper welcome it just had a more painful ring to it other than that I think it was perfectly fine.
Radiant
Hi there.

I'm Irene, a BSc in particle physics from Russia currently working as a call center frontline operator, asexual, single, causing mayhem since 1986. Radiant is the munchkin archangel from Magic: the Gathering.

I drive a Ferrari F50, which is cool but would be overwhelmingly so if it wasn't an 1:43 radiocontrolled model. I know rocket science and the difference between African and American swallows. I am an ardent follower of Indiana Jones in that I won't ever miss a chance to beat the **** out of a nazi. Even if I'm late for work. Especially if I'm late for work, because it would look great in the letter of excuse.

I don't like CCGs, miniature wargames and every sort of online RPGs since I had a revelation, which was: Virtual reality is not Fantasy, It is Reality, heavily flavored with 3D this and Surround 9.1 that, but Reality nonetheless. It's not something I can change. Orim of the Shadows will always try to open the box, and Arthas Menethil will never come all the way to Stormwind to claim the throne. WoW is not bad, but not real enough to be Fantasy.

Among my hobbies are writing plots for possible modules while leafing through GURPS handbooks, preaching the glory of Planescape:Torment and scanning the internets for more cool stuff to put on my Shelf of Win. That, and making fun of Bastards Associated. Nothing beats lolz.
Grym
Hey, if you're asexual maybe you and Verb could get it on. He's asexual too.

(yes, I know what it means. Hi. This is my idea of a joke.)
Perpetual
'Lo new person. Don't mind Grym, sometimes he gets it in his head that he's funny because people laugh after he says something.
John1918
@ Luka - *wave* Hello Luka, short person is subjective, I feel I'm fairly short because I have taller family members, its up to you what you happen to be. wink.gif California can be nice, but lately its been wet, and mostly cloudy.

@ icecold - Which statement lobotomized you mate? laugh.gif

@ Perpetual - So says the Southern boy. tongue.gif I'm from the North, up here, we get cold during winter like normal people. laugh.gif

@ Radiant - Hello Irene, nice to meet you. biggrin.gif Interesting take on RPG-ish things, just means you have to make your own that you CAN change. wink.gif

(New fact about John, he writes too much. tongue.gif)
dante
And likes smiley faces I see. And I like the south more than the north because of one thing we skip shitty seasons mainly winter my gods man the cold bah.

Most quickly agreed to. If you like year round relative warmth, come down south.

Also if you like illiteracy, incest, and not having teeth. wink.gif

No, that stuff is everywhere. Go check some of those north/central states backwoods. Its just as prominent.

I tend to use the emoticons in spurts for some reason, this is a spurt. wink.gif

I like the cold...used to live in a place where it hit 119 (with 80% humidity) in the summer, mid 80's at night-time...then again, that place was pretty damn bad all around. I'll probably end up south-bound anyways, there are less tech jobs up here.

Yeah, I know)) Though the whole "motivated by porn" thing is kinda weird.
nothingbroken
I always thought porn was supposed to motivate people! unsure.gif
Josef bugman
Generally its the otherway round. People get distracted by porn wink.gif
Jaganshi
I think its still mostly spite. the addition of porn in his avatar seems like an afterthought. But he seems caught up in the concept of zombie porn, so until my virus of undeath is unleashed, you won't get very far with him.
nothingbroken
Again with the zombie porn! It is getting to be quite the rage around here... wacko.gif

Not that I mind.
I3lind
The rage, boy did you miss out. We had a whole thread dedicated to that back in the day.
nothingbroken
Then I curse the fact that thread necromancy is not allowed. That would have been fun!
BowenSilverclaw
Greetings,

as you can see my handle is BowenSilverclaw, it's the name of my first D&D character laugh.gif
In real life I go by the name of Joop, and I'm from the Netherlands.
I'm 21 years old and I study philosophy in Nijmegen.

I've been reading the comic for about 3-4 months now and figured It's about time I joined this forum.

My hobbies include listening to music (a lot of bands, including AC/DC, Bon Jovi, Queen, Iron Maiden, Alice Cooper, Billy Idol, Judas Priest, Motorhead, Guns 'N Roses, Velvet Revolver, ZZ Top, Foo Fighters, KISS, Aerosmith, Metallica, Queensryche, Lordi, but also things like Nightwish, Prince, Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit and a lot more (as you can see a lot of rock of some sort, but that's not all I listen to:P),watching movies (all kinds really), hanging out with friends and having fun at a party every now and then, sci-fi and fantasy movies/series, D&D, drawing and loads of other stuff...

That's it for now, looking forward to some forum madness laugh.gif

Hello Bowen and all other new peoples

Thanks, Hunter ^^

Uhm, well yeah, my 26th post is my introduction post, aherm...oh well.

HELLO!
Happygolucky
I like the cut of y'all's jib, so I thought I'd join. Short intro as follows:

I like animals, juggling, tube amps, and sarcasm.
I set the bar for sucking at online games. But, I'm alright at bar games, so I guess balance is maintained in the universe.
I fully understand that I have no actual super-powers. I dunno...I just like to say that when I join online forums.
I think I would've made a decent ninja. Or maybe a truck driver. You know, based on the job market at any given time.
I don't "get" emo kids , reality shows, or boy bands. Seriously. WTF?
I chose my avatar based on the fact it looks like a steamy turd.

That's everything I know about myself. Looking forward to meeting some of y'all. Cheers!
Hunter
Well hello Lucky, hope you have a good time here and don't let Verby know your inner most fears, he will use them against you and about twelve other people.

Meh, you aren't in the army until after basic pal. But Fort Jackson isn't too bad, just hope you don't get Charle 1-34 as your unit for basic. That one really sucks.

Also: When you have run out of letters to write, practice your drawing. People love it, and you might catch a break. Writing, not so much. But people love an artist.
Verbose
People do hate writers. Especially poets.
Sayuri Kajira
Its not that we 'hate' poets. We just prefer them to be dead.

I don't see why they fear you so much, Verby-kins. You're just a teddy bear with a shank for a tongue. Not that hard to deal with.
pentheraphobia
what about ninja poetry?
Wildamae
Lol, thanks all. I actually draw more then write, I only try my hand at fanfics everynow and then, and I draw pretty much anything and everything I can. I actually have a Richard pic, but my coloring sucks on it. >< And my style is still being worked on...

Parents find me charming, grandparents find me rakish. It seems that the further displaced you are from me in age, the more I am loved.

Hell, even babies love me.

Human babies? mellow.gif

Only human babies.

Other animals fear me.
