It was a response to the "Invent your own word" thread. I had been coming to the escapist for some time to watch zero punctuation, and I realized that the forums were quite interesting. I just had to respond to that thread, so I made an account. Now here I am, 432 posts later, and I don't regret my decision.

IIRC, my first post was in a thread about the biggest lie your parents told you as a kid. Someone even gave me a /win for it :)

Hey, good to finally meet someone with a lower post rate then mine.
I'm glad I could have satisfied that.

Most of the time, I type up a reply, then just erase it, finding that it isn't relevant/funny/intelligent/all of the above. I'd probably have double my post count if I weren't like that o.o

I registered in Febuary, first posted in September as a response to Yahtzee's Wolfenstein review:
Your limerick was
a very impressive thing
I can't even write Haiku.
Ten points if you get the joke.

My first post (and the one for which i registered) was in a thread about Russian gonverment trying to outlaw emo culture. Whole "God bless Russia for that" and "Yay Russia" thing hit really damn close to home. And no-not because i'm an emo. Because i do not want 1984 to become a reality.

As for my thread,it was an attempt to spread the word about Just Cause 2. Because really,who has heard of it besides me?

The thread that I first posted in: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.118886?page=2#2289257
It was about left handed gamers. Here's the post if you too lazy to click a link.

Well, my friend is left handed and I'm right handed but he usually beats me. He beats me because he's left handed or I suck. Hmmm. Nah. It's probably 'cause he's left handed.
That's right. That is the post that created the penguin you see but barely notice today.
Oh, Warpy. So naive. XD

See, I type it up, leave it, and then get called out for it.

I believe mine was objecting to the contreversy surroundling Left 4 Dead 2 having black zombies. I'm too lazy to go find it and post it here.

I'm not racist I was just mad that people accuse a game of racism because you have to kill zombiefied minorities as if a virus is actually going to be sentinent and think "Oh I'd better not infect them I've got to be sensitive and only infect white people that's PC" a virus doesn't give a shit what it infects as long as it spreads so its realism

Mine was me praising another user for saving a bird that had gotten caught in a plastic six-pack holder thing. This was before the rampant cynicism kicked in and I just stopped caring about this doomed planet and it's idiotic inhabitants.

To be honest, I don't think I'd be able *not to* tell people. Think about it, wouldn't you feel... 'fake' if you saw all those religous people going about and you had factual proof that they were all following an illusion? I couldn't bare being the odd man out by such a large amount.

(Also, hi! First post from a mostly lurker, I've seen a lot of interesting topics on this forum and figured I'd reply to one for a change.)

I'd say it's not particularly 'good' or 'bad', but nevertheless kind of defining for what I've been like here. As in not really picking a side, but coming up with an argument and suggesting a thought.

In a thread entitled; "Your worst moment with the opposite sex?"

ravens_nest said:
Good morning/afternoon/evening/night everyone, nice to finally make your acquaintance after following ZP for well over a year now...

My worst moment had to be a few years back now. I'm on a school trip in France, a girl (Lizzie) who I was friends with (and fancied) for at least two years is there too. A couple of days into the trip and everyone is hanging out in the hotel pool one evening. About six or seven of us are in the jacuzzi including said girl.

I'm kind of tuning in and out of the various conversations when I hear Lizzie declaring "feel around for me while i'm underwater"... I look at my friends, most are smiling pervertedly...Lizzie has gone underwater... I *cough* unashamedly attempt to "cop a feel".I grab what I think is a breast, and give a little cheer.

Lizzie bursts out of the water looking mortified and shouts out "I'VE JUST BEEN GROPED!". She wasn't a happy bunny. My face has turned a violent shade of magenta by this point. She then demands to know who it was...Everybody points to me...Nobody even had the courtesy to laugh because in that instance the mood had completely died.

I recieve a 70 mph bitchslap to the face and she never spoke to me again... (which everyone in the pool room hears)

It turned out she had lost her earring and was simply asking people to feel around with their feet...

The morale to the story here...listen, and don't take everything people say literally. (and I shouldn't be a perv)
....ummm....yeah....

Mine was telling a kid he was a whiny *****. He was leaving the internet forums and made a big deal about it. So I said he was a whiny ***** and anyone who cared had no life. Now that I think about it I stand by what I said.

I commented on some topic about the infinite, wrote something stupid that was ignored. My second post was in a thread about Eve, it was just after Band of Brothers fell and it was such a massive event in that game, interesting thread that one.
