    Default How did you make it to .org??

    Hey,


    I was thinking "eh what the heck,I post it here"..

    how did you come to .org? was it a TW Game that brought you here (I hope so),like looking for other MP players, or for a patch,etc....?

    Or,

    Have you Never even played a TW game, but came here for History stuff, or Came here to meet new people??



    I came here in 2004, jsut for MTW clan sites, then in Febrauby 2006, I decided to come here, since .net was goin down here, and after gettin recently ban at .com (In Ferbaybuy,not now)..

    I use to google Rome Total War forum boards. I finally found the org. After a long period of lurking, I joined.

    I came here for mods because Rome was sorely lacking in the replayability section. I became a member for the prospect of discussing mods, the Monastery, and later posting about MTWII.

    I've no idea... I really thought that the journey would be the end of me though...


    For a few days, a long time ago, the .net was down, so I decided to go here.

    If I recall correctly, EB was what reeled me in for the catch. I do believe I recall my first post being in the EB forums.... *sniff* So beautiful...

    I came looking for help on MTW and any interesting facts on the byzantines. i remember someone posting a thread of Osprey artwork of E.Roman soldiers. Pretty cool, I might add. Too bad I cant find that thread anymore.

    I originally came in October 2005, but I was busy at the time (and still busy now), kinda lost interest in the site for some time and in addition I forgot my password. Somehow, I went back to this place just last summer, and I was issued a new password and boom, I'm back in the game baby.

    It's still a very interesting and helpful site.

    Well I came originally to the .org to get patches for MTW, noticed the forums and ended up as a lurker. After lurking period of a year or so I decided to get involved in fun of posting and it's a decision I'm happy about.

    I came here to read some of the guides, especially Froggy's excellent guide to RTW.

    Afterwards I just lurked once in a while.

    This summer it was very very calm here at work. I noticed there was a writing contest going on and I thought "hey why not participate?".

    And so I joined.

    Afterwards, thanks to some of the spammers helpfull members here, I discovered the Tavern...

    I found this forum while looking for some helpful guides, at some point I stumbled on Froggy's comprehensive one. I also followed the other faction specific guides , before deciding on joining myself, which I did in december 2004 after lurking for a while.

    I've been here ever since.

    ooh it was probably because i had some sort of trouble with RTW..i think...but i stayed for the drinks and endless parties
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.

    I stopped in and lurked back in the beginning of time. I think I first registered when I was playing MTW, but I never really posted. Then somewhere before Rome came out, I lost my password and re-registered as the lemur. Finally started posting. As with so many Orgahs, it was Froggy's guides that convinced me this was a place to stop and hang out.

    I joined after simply googling for a forum where like-minded people were discussing issues with (then) STW. I lurked for about a year of so and finally decided to become a full fledged member of this fine community.

    I think i found my way here while looking for a way to fix the money cheat in RTW so that it could be used more than twice each game.

    And Ian, nice to see you, haven't seen you around here for quite a while!
