Out of the woodwork

[Mitsukara]

Thank you for the polite responses! Last time I did this I read the replies and was all like "blehhhh" and didn't try it again for three years.

A lot has changed since you last popped in, here's hoping you stick around for awhile this time!

It sure looks that way. You're an administrator after all? Last I heard there was some sort of blood-feud against you or something like that. Good to see you doing well, though.

Granted, I tend to be in and out myself, but I find it interesting how some of us oldies always tend to find our way back to this forum.

Yeah... it really was my stand-in for high school social life, after all, so I get curious now and then. It's a strange feeling, because it's been so long I don't really feel like I know anyone super well anymore, but I remember little things here and there about people. I used to be a lot more sociable as a teenager I guess.

It's been a bit more quiet than it used to be here but it's a pretty tight group that still posts. It would be great to see you here more often!

I'll probably never post as much as I used to, but I'll look around and maybe pop in now and then. Things seem friendlier than they used to be, which is a good sign. Plus I'll probably have some ZC questions.

Hello, old friend. I don't know if I qualify as a friend, nevertheless I am happy to see you.

I remember you a little as well. It's kind of nice to see old faces around, as it were. Thanks : )

You know that song people associate with New Years' Day, "Auld Lang Syne"? "Should old acquaintance be forgot" and so on? That song's definitely grown on me over time.

Make a 5th quest for the contest. Etc.

Sadly I have to admit I haven't played the 3rd and 4th quests (yet!), or finished the original second quest (although I have been poking at that recently- I got through level 3, but the only items I've found are the two boomerangs and the whistle, plus of course stuff in stores... if they get progessively more devilish, I can only imagine what a 5th quest would be like).

Actually, I've been taking an interest in how much more support for a LTTP/Link's Awakening (especially the latter) hybrid sort of game there is now, what with the Roc's Feather and sideview rooms and that kinda thing (I am yeaaaars behind on the updates though). And I've heard tell of scripts for the cane of somaria and a lifting power glove, though I've yet to try running them (need to read up on how combining scripts works). Cool stuff.

I might wind up with something presentation-worthy (I have a pet project I'm working on), but it probably won't be a 5th quest entry- I don't think I really know what I'm doing for such a thing.

Thanks again for the friendly replies : ) it's encouraging. I'll try to be less of an embarrassment than I used to be.

Yeah, I am, who'd a thunk?

I'll be the first to admit that I was a little off my rocker back in the day. Late adolescence mood swings and all that.
Putting my mind toward graduating from college and then holding down an office job for the past 5 years has really helped me chill out.
But even so, reports of my craziness were greatly exaggerated (well at least that's my story, and I'm sticking to it!)
I'm trying to be less of an embarrassment than I used to be as well. The current mood of the place is much more amenable for that, I would say.

Things have been fairly quiet, but I don't think anyone would dispute that we've been seeing a significant up-tick in activity over the past couple of months.
I'm hoping that you and some of the other oldbies will start hanging around and posting more. I know that sometimes it's hard for people to find things worth saying on a forum in this Web 2.0 world of ours, but any chatter is better than none :)

That's understandable. Sometime around 2004+ I started to become reclusive, arrogant, and aggressive. I think I might have contracted rabies. I remember chatting and IMing with you and DarkDude waaay back in the day. I also for some reason remember that you were the last person to register before I registered this account.
