How did you make it to .org??

[GreatEmperor]

Was searching for some RTW info and I accidentally typed .org instead of .com and I landed here

[Caius]

I was in the TW site.I found a link who says Strategic Modding Academy.I registede in, but there arent any guides to mod.I googled forums and i entered the totalwar.com forums.I was finding a guide, and i clicked in a link who directed me here.I joined such as Decius Curtius, but i forgot the password.The next day, I created a new account called Caius Flaminius, and I'm here!

[Scurvy]

talk on the mtw lobby and also .net (lurked for maybe ayear - then joined)

[lancelot]

I came after the .com site went downhill fast. I got sick of threads being closed 'just in case' anyone broke the rules (ie- before any rules had been broken)

There is only so many power-happy moderators that a man can stand. Havent really been back since...has it changed much?

[Stig]

Nah didn't change really, apart from the fact other people became mods.
People like Elmo and Duck are still around.

That's for me the reason of coming here too. Not being happy with .com. But I still am a regular patron there, mainly to annoy the mods tho.

[Mithrandir]

There was a job opening a few years back. I needed the money, I applied, I got hired.

How much you get Pay? 20 grand a year? j/k

yea .com is ok, but they to strict. Admins/Mods here at least try to alert you or warn you before they slap you with a actual Warning.

Those guys piss me off too much to even post there, I lurked a bit but really, I've never seen so many locked topics

Anyway, I just googled total war in Google

[Stig]

meh that's down to the new n00b mods they have.

3 weeks ago, I almost made a daily thread entitled:
Why aren't the locked threads moved to the Graveyard?

tbh they don't bother with the MTW2 forums anymore, we get 2 pages of new threads a day. Far too much to handle for the mods.
But anyway I'm not going to discuss it, there's an excellent forum for me if I want to bash CA and .com, and it isn't here

[The Spartan (Returns)]

after i played MTW i really needed helps on battle. (MTW was first Total War game for me) i look at Froggy's guide to MTW and later on i felt like joining.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

cool. Seems like Almost all of the people here came to .org for help with MTW or RTW or something, and only a few came just to cause touble (Just joking :-)) lol

[spmetla]

Erasing the past...

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

Are there even any good Mods for STW still? I don't even know..

[Whacker]

Came here after I discovered Shogun. Wanted to see if there were any mods for it and found the Org, sorta just stuck around ever since.

Same here, except I wasn't looking for mods, just info. That and I lurked for about 6 years.

[Darth Nihilus]

Right when the original MTW came out I just googled this forum. Been a lurker for years and only recently started posting here.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

cool. I found this fourm,ethier in 2002 or 2004, as a lurker, but didn't start coming till Febrauby, got banned from Early June-Late Setember, then got un-banned :)

[yesdachi]

While looking for some answers to questions I had about MTW I walked up-hill ten miles in the snow both ways to get here.

LoL. And I low-crawled over barbed wire and broken glass...

Read about the forthcoming Shogun:Total War on ZDnet, who raved about how it would display thousands of soldiers on-screen at the same time (a major development at the time). That article had links to .com and .org, so followed those.

[The Wizard]

Somewhere in early 2003 I tried registering here as a result of my activities in MTW's multiplayer, but something went wrong and my account wasn't activated. Eventually, I drifted to Total War Center, but came back here for reasons even I've forgotten. This forum's just that good

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

Cool Guys. I went to TWC, Made 10-20 posts or so, but came back here not soon after :-) :)

[Tran]

Time to revive this thread...

From what I remember, I came here after I played M2TW demo from a PC game mag DVD. Then, I searched for infos about M2TW and stuff then somehow I ended up here...

[Martok]

I confess I no longer remember how it was I first stumbled onto the Org -- probably through a link at the offical site, but I can't swear to it. All I know is that I lurked here for almost a year and a half before finally deciding to join up. (It's hard to believe now, but at that time I was extremely "forum-shy", and hadn't really participated in message boards before then.) What finally won me over was how everyone here was both intelligent and courteous in their conversations....and (as I realized later) extremely helpful as well. As a rule, Orgahs really know how to make a person feel at home.

almost the same... i was here since 2003 but never knew you could sign up :P

and i came and never left...

[Warmaster Horus]

I think it might have been thanks to EB.
I was looking through threads on Gamefaqs (what a horrid place that could be...) and found something about EB, I followed the link here, and for more than a year lurked around, never deciding myself about signing up. Finally, in January, why I don't remember, I signed up. And that was it.

[Hepcat]

I just found it on Google when looking for mods. Found EB and then signed up.

Though I hardly ever post I do read a lot of topics.

[Marshal Murat]

I was at the com. enjoyed it (Hagiographers, Tarrak Interactives, supporting NTW).
After Hagiographers fell through, I heard discussion about the .org, and decided to take a look around. I liked it, signed up, and have come here regularly ever since.
Mead Hall, Monastery, and recently the Backroom (sometimes to my ire)

[Kuni]

I was trying to search for RTW unit stats and came across this forum.

Several weeks later, I tried to search for BI unit stats. Failing that, I was looking for guides that hopefully had unit stats in them, and was again directed to FrogBeastEgg's excellent guide, which I recognized. I bookmarked the site and, days later, I stumbled into Scriptorium and started tumbling down the modding hole. :)

[Conradus]

I came here thanks to EB's official site and lurked for some months before posting anything. The Monastery and the friendliness of the people here kept me. And now you're stuck with me.

[The Spartan (Returns)]

t'was attracted to froggy's MTW guide.

[Yun Dog]

I was down on my luck ... looking for work

I met this guy at my local pub, he had tattoos on his arms and kept buying me drinks

I was pretty drunk but I have this vague memory of being punched repeatedly and put into the back of a van


and I woke up here
