I believe I have found some of the crazier ones

Yeah, but at least the annoying ones haven't shown up yet.

Present and accounted for. Welcome, new forum user! Hope you enjoy the tons of attention you're getting, but not too much. You could get addicted and go from place to place on the internet making up new names and repeating this process, much to your own detriment.

You'll see myself, Jackrabbit, Workerdrone, Janet, Tack, TheNew(er?)MartianEmperor, and many others frequenting this when we have nothing better to do. Or in my case (and probably others'), when I have a ton of better things to do and decide to be a lazy ass or stay up late.

The people here are interesting and usually polite. Enjoy one of the best forums out there, and the only one I've ever stuck around for.

It's worth mentioning 99% of the people here have procrastination issues.

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

I'm guilty. I think the worst thing is that we say "when the new version comes out", but the truth is that once it does all we will be doing is playing it.

I'm pretty sure Yanlin was an arab (a arab? Arabic? I'm not sure what's proper) as well.
Not really, he is ethnically Ukranian (or around that area) and lives in Israel. And Arabic means "of the Arabian Peninsula" while Arab means "of Arabic culture". Both are proper, but the people of North Africa are Arabs and not Arabic.

Smigenboger is a very vague reference to a story I made five years ago. To get to the point, I realized there were so many newer fantasy-type books being made, you would have to have some very original names for your races and characters, or else they would overlap.

(Wow, I just googled Smigenboger and every google result has to do with things I've done :P)

Hello Mr. New Guy. I'm the resident generic guy who nobody can quite remember, except perhaps for the drag queen penguin avatar (don't ask) or some of the stuff I'm running (/procastrinating) - oh, and the resident German, not to be confused with the resident monochromatic German, or Deathworks (may he rest in peace)

I also see you have already met Sniper Joe/Sofia/Janet, the resident psycho female... *dodges immolation*

Anyway, I hope you get along with the community, it is essentially the best I've ever seen.

Sophia = Janet? And here I thought the minority of females was not a minority of one.

Sapho too, although there seems to be six identified males for every identified female by the forum statistics. Most people don't drop down all the way here.

Edit: Mixed up male and female in the last sentence. Sorry for the undue shock.

Just watch out for the forum police.

They enforce the communist city-state.

You mean Head Baron and Judge, Aqizzar.

I thought Aqizzar was the baron of the forums. Or does he have several titles?
