I'm an old forum guy. I've been actively using forums since 2012. I was apart of a forum called LF and a forum called Nbb (Abbreviations) LF is shutting down and things between me and the Owner for Nbb were not going well. On LF I was apart of many Anime/Manga groups (About 8 or so) and was a member for over 4 years. The forum has 2 million + users. On Nbb I was Leader of the forums Anime group and Writers group. I was also a Sectional Moderator in the General Discussions Sectors. The forum has 150k + users. I'm looking for a fresh start. Just looking for a place I can call home again. Hopefully this place is cool and welcoming.

I am the alpha and the omega. O.G. is my name and MORPG is my game. I am an oldie or veteran gamer; some might call me a G.M. or game master, but I prefer the title O.G. or original gamer. My gaming biography is older than many gamers alive today and I have likely forgotten more about MORPG than most players have ever even learned. So let's pick up the story where I last remember, shortly after the epic game crash of 1983. As a toddler I played floor games and miniature wargames such as Little Wars, Castles & Catapaults, Lego Wars and of course, Army Men in 1985 to 1987, but I believe it was in 1989 when my first video gaming experience began. I started off playing classic Atari games when I was still a young child or fledgling gamer. Pac-Man was the first arcade game I ever played, in 1989 I do believe. But I didn't get introduced to role-playing games until I started playing The Legend of Zelda for NES in 1990, followed by A Legend of Golden Axe for SEGA in 1991, shortly before I owned my first personal computer. Then in 1994 is when I started playing Apple II games like Oregon Trail and Prince of Persia, along with text-based games like Storybook Weaver and tabletop strategy board games like Chess, Checkers, Risk, Axis & Allies, etcetera. Of course I also played many other games for Nintendo, SEGA, Macintosh and PC up until around 1997 when I discovered on-line gaming and instant messenger programs. I started on AIM in 1997, then YIM in 1998, followed by MSN in 1999, the golden years. for MORPG in my opinion. I of course found my way to places like Ayenee, Tenaria, Romantica, Nerima, Ecneics, Eden, Jacmus, etcetera during those days. I spent a lot of time in places like Jade's Tavern and Kad's DBZ/GT Battle Chat in 1998 to 1999, eventually finding my way to places like Tuxedo Mask, Charmanders-31, Vampire: The Masquerade Chat, and bulletin boards like 4chan, along with several webpages linked to Angelfire, Geocities, Bravenet, Multicity Chat, Comicity Chat, Homestead Chat, Internet Relay Chats, Anime Capsule III or Metawerx, Usagi & Mamoru's Chat, Castle Of Dragons, Red Dragon Inn, Vampire Tavern, Green Dragon Inn, etcetera. After the year 2000 is when I started site hopping to places like RPG Net, Anime Central, Roleplay Gateway, Animus Prime, Chatzy, Roleplayers Guild, Gaia Online, Novus Terra, RPNation, RPRepository, Dream Realms, Roleplayers Net, Hyrule Nations, Dungeon Masters and many other sites with chat rooms or forums. I also occasionally visited different Digimon, Pokemon, Sailor Moon and GWing chat rooms from time to time but I never really took an interest in anime, comics or cartoons. My passion was on-line fighting and learning all I could about RPG internet textual combat. I wasted countless hours studying all the different popular rulesets and methods for on-line fighting. I learned Auto, Advanced Auto, Basic T1, Advanced T1, Codex, Basic T2, T3, T4, T5, Master T2, TRBS, RCM, ART, Freeform or Freestyle and many other rulesets for engaging in textual combat. I was responsible for preserving the history and methods of on-line fighting and today I consider that feat to be probably my greatest, if not my only real accomplishment and successful contribution to MORPG, as I didn't really do much else except flirt with chicks and make some people laugh while annoying others. Some players might say that I was influential during every single RPG clan war that ever occurred, either directly or indirectly, but that's a bold claim. Although it is true that I have been present during just about every major RPG clan war on the internet, the time I actually spent role-playing was sporadic and random at best. Even today I spend more time OOC than I do IC and although I do like to chat, I rarely interact with other players in-character. I seem to be more interested in writing, sharing knowledge and telling stories than I am with actually role-playing. I find myself becoming more of a game creator or designer, a judge or mediator between on-line fighters, a joker and an artist who just likes to have fun and be creative. I am a sort of mentor or grandmaster of textual combat I guess you could say, but nowadays I don't practice typing or texting as often and have slowed down considerably over the years since I first started role-playing. I don't like to boast or brag and actually have been known to stop helping players who tend to be too cocky or arrogant, as I am an elitist or perfectionist of sorts with high moral standards who values respect and discipline over skillfulness or great performance. Over the years, I have produced arguably some of the greatest on-line fighters to ever take the stage; if not because of their skills, then because of their honorary fairness and etiquette as on-line fighters. Defeating others is easy, but defeating oneself is a challenge and I have helped many noobs to advance or become masters of textual combat due to my unorthodox and very strict standard of teaching. I unofficially retired from MORPG around 2005, then again in 2010, and then again in 2015, but I keep coming back because I just enjoy the act of on-line gaming so much, and interacting with so many people from all around the world, learning and sharing different cultures and ideas. It's fun to collaborate with others.

idk why but cant stop listening to the zankyou no terror and your lie in april ost

@seemore_bhutts and @Guts Welcome to both of you, you'll find a very friendly community here, enjoy your time around മ◡മ

Nice to meet you guts, I'm brand new and I hope we both enjoy this place

Been listening to Garnidelia for almost 2 days straight now! Love them! ♥

Feeling a little down. Had to put down two of my animals this week luckily i have anime and friends.

It's a firm start in my opinion. Also, apparently you joined these forums the day of my birthday!

I actually love cons. I've attended both anime cons and sci-fi cons, started with anime cons. The main anime Con I go to has a large variety of panels to attend. There's always a few Gundam panels, usually a few Sci fi panels too (like walking dead or game of thrones...let's face it, most anime fans have multiple interests), a few video game panels, and tons of varied panels. I've gone to panels concerning the history of anime, genre specific (reverse harem centric for example), Lolita fashion, industry panels, voice actor panels, and so forth. Honestly there are so many panels that occur simultaneously that the night before the fun starts I'm usually sitting down with the schedule and a highlighter planning my con days and looking at the convention center map (with dealer room/artist gallery time included). Maybe you need to try a different con? I never go to any Pokémon or Naruto panels...never had nothing else to do either. I have gone to panels hosted by someone who works with the Pokémon Company though (it was a guest speaker panel). He prefaced nearly every statement to the questions with "this is my personal view and in no way represents the views and opinions of the Pokémon Company and its affiliates" lol....that was a good panel. Anyways, I won't say which anime Con I frequent (let's face it, most people will attend the closest con, makes it easy to pinpoint posters if you broadcast it) but I will say that when I went to Wizard World Con just about half the people there stated they frequented the same anime Con as me (shocked the planners as they hadn't heard about it). Cosplay is huge at my favorite anime con but I've never done it. Anyways, I love it. My husband had no interest in cons before the anime Con I dragged him to. He's looked forward to it every year since (and he doesn't watch anime - I try to split the panel topics with his interests so he doesn't feel lost but I think he just loves listening to the voice actors and seeing the awesome cosplays). Since then, he's been suggesting sci-fi cons to attend and we've become a con-couple! Got lots of pictures and autographs from voice actors and actors (including Will Shatner and David Tennant). Great memories I'll never forget how I got all star struck by Shatner lol...he asked me how to say my name Anyways, people probably avoid talking about it because of the geographic proximity to their home. I know that I prefer to have some privacy online in that regard.
