    Hello all,

    Apparently I joined this forum way back in 2003, posted once in the Vampires board, and somehow forgot about this site. Having found and reinstalled all my Troika games and looking to patch them all I stumbled across this site (again). I've been lurking for a few days and seems like this is the place to be for all things Troika. Pleased to meet y'all.

    So wait, you posted in the Vampires board before it came out? :eek:

    No need to be amazed. The ToEE forum was up and running well before it came out, too. See, it's recognized by the entire planet save Spiffy that announced titles receive hype and general interest prior to release, and that people like to talk about it at forums like this one.

    Yup, and I'll continue being a smartass until you pull yourself together and start behaving somewhat intelligently or keep going until we reach the decision to ban you. It's not so fucking difficult as it seems, all you need to do is to realize that your posts are in dire need of improvement and make a conscious effort to do so.

    It's the difference between biting the head off the bat and proceed to play awesome metal, and give the bat to PETA and then decide it would be better to give the audience a dose of country western.

    Yes, this is very true.

    I am the community manager of a StarCraft II fan site:

    http://www.sc2armory.com/about

    (And StarCraft II isn't released yet, and the site's sister site is a fan site of Diablo III, which also isn't released.)

    Oh, and heyo magikot. Welcome back to the forums!

    And I am sure Spiffy was just joking or acknowledged the uberness of being there before something came out.

    Must everything you say be so depressing? Or is it just me?

    It seems as though you picked out phrases of my words which are depressing. I'm sure if one spent the effort to do such things for nearly anyone they would be able to produce the same effect.

    Still, I'm curious as to what you find depressing about that particular phrase you quoted. Are you a StarCraft fan? Or a Diablo fan by any chance?

    Both, even though it's been a while since I've played either. I can't wait for these games to be released! It seems like an eternity, 'til then I'll just occupy my time by playing with random shiny objects.

    Hehe.

    Well, if you are interested in going to Blizzcon by yourself for free, the StarCraft II/Diablo III Armory is hosting a "make a Diablo III class" competition. The winners of the best 3 submissions will receive a ticket each. The prize will be given at the actual event; there will be a meeting place somewhere, and lodgings/travel would be at your expense. If you are interested at all, here is a link to the completion's thread:

    I just hope that SC2 and D3 won't suck..
    Hero classes? I can't come up with anything that's less generic than what has already been used. Thanks though.

    Yeah, no problem. But the competition is there for anyone who is interested.

    I've actually never played Diablo or Diablo II, but I played StarCraft, and I have a feeling that StarCraft II will be exceptional.

    And Diablo III I reckon will be very addictive and satisfying.

    While I agree with your reasoning, don't you seem a little pissy today. Did someone perform inadequately at last night's gay elf sexathon?

    Now I see why you were banned before Garm. What exactly do you get out of hijacking others intro threads and try to make them about yourself?

    I read that 6 page emo masterpiece of the idiocy you called logic. Do us a favor and jump off a bridge.

    I'm sure it wasn't intentional; Dark Elf just seems to be particular insensitive to humor, probably even more than myself, or so it appears, or just simply has a different taste of humor to yours.

    magikot, conversation just develops; I'm sure you understand.

    I'll consider it.


    Anyways, tell us more about yourself. Fill this thread with conversation; after all, it is your thread.
