    ack, those rogue stones under certain avatars are confusing me, I'd gotten used to it being either Aikanaro or myself only :doh:

    Yeah, I have to agree. I love this place. Even if I don't usually engage in any big or deep conversations or debates, I have lot of fun posting around and playing the games in the sensorium.

    I also love the anonymity of being just a name and rogue stone yet feel the (if I may describe it this way) kind of "cozy" feeling that our online community has. It really does make you feel that you can say whatever you want but not act like a jackass :D

    .edit.

    Yeah, first forum for me too. Also the only one I ever stuck around on except for that time during my on the job training and for some reason BoM was caught by the company firewall but I was able to access Gamebanshee forums and other stuff. Wtf? :confused:

    Echoing the general feeling here but...
    ... is it just me or has the BoM stagnated a bit recently? I haven't seen any active new members for ages, and with the slow but steady decrease in older members things are starting to feel a little ... emptier.
    I think a lot of my BoM-love is tied up in nostalgia. Things seem to be slowing down a lot here, there seems to be less to do. I don't know - maybe it's just me. Sorry to be the downer in an otherwise positive thread.

    I guess maybe less people are playing Baldur's Gate now?

    I know what you guys mean though...I've sort of stopped visiting the BG2 forum altogether...just keep it to Whatnots and AoDA these days because those are the ones where you have the most activity going on...

    Ah I remember the good old days when we used to have these long threads about how cheesy Imp. Irenicus was and general exploits of magery...:beer:

    Guys, have you no doubt. I love this place. Maybe this doesn't show as much these days as it did before, but I do. And there's some work pending, while I try my best to keep the news arriving in time. Who knows, maybe in the days to come soon, I'll be able to pull off an extra or too. Working full time plus a PhD course plus SP is a little strain sometimes. ;)
