This thread is awesome.

I am sad that I have discovered the on-line sims, and the relative communities, so late.

The old times you vets are talking about must have been wonderful, funnier, and happier.

And I could have learned a better english reading the forums.

Why do I always have to keep instructing you in the easy things?

1) Get a calendar
2) Getting your picture taken with booth babes is ok.
3) Always show up to E3 parties early so you can get in before the fire marshal starts turning people away.


Simple stuff, see?


Touche`

Best E3 party ever...wish we could have gone...

So how's the new digs...what's it like working for Mark Jacobs <---ROFL!!!

Next time you're wandering around the DAoC side of things, give Sanya (Tweety), Copper, Lum and Olivia a really dirty look and tell them it was from me...

Neg, wasn't me. There was a Mac flying Bz IIRC in MacAW--dunno what became of him--as an additional note--Ren, Coach, NB, Tinman, Snoman, & Felix are all flying here for The Damned--some of ya'll might remember a name or two... ;)

For the history-minded, I posted many of my recollections of the early daze of AW on my site.

  Hear the murmur of voices getting louder, growing closer? That`s the sound of warrior friends reuniting to do battle.
  Hear the thunder on the horizon? Behold the second coming of greatness !
  No better place than hear. No better time than NOW.  :) <--- I borrowed that one.

J_A_B, Nash and 4 guys thanks for clearing that up for me. I believe what Nash found is exactly what i had read years ago and started my quest to find out about the "4 Horsemen".

Now what about this mail thing i've heard whispers about called "Big Week" i think it is?


BTW HARRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!:D

Not email, a UseNet newsgroup.

Point your newsreader to

news.kraits.org, then click on bigweek.general & bigweek.sheepspen (if you like a hetero gentleman's club).

Bring thick skin or better yet lurk the place for a while to see how stuff works there. To see the participants, goto http://www.look-at-ewe.com
