    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!

    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)

    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.

    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.

    Anyway, I just googled total war in Google

    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

    I googled RTW to find s place for help and advice with the game. This is a great place. There aren't as many forumers here as at heavengames, but the RTW iq is a bit higher here.

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

    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.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    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

    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...

    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.

    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.

    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.

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

    Found the link at the .com when hunting for MTW info. Lurked, unregistered, both here and on TWC from VI onwards, I temporarily lost interest in TW when Rome came out, but very soon after I suddenly became interested in Antiquity (no idea how that happened) and picked it up again. It was still about a year before I actually registered though.
