'twas vaguely familiar, but I had to look it up..

figures, I think you're about my age so you would remember...

Hey there Arokrkady MeRenkosault!

Hola!

Welcome Arkady!
I'm more of simulation type of guy myself...

Lolwut?

Hey Saulty!

Bom dia!

*changes username to rokr*

*Helps*

Glad you made it mate, hope you stick around or come by from time to time.

thanks, I won't make any promises though.

HI rokr

Hello Saulty Rocker!

Glad you stopped in!

thanks everyone!

Hi, Meursault!

Hi, you! Do we know each other? Are you cybergirl ?

[Goofy]

I miss rokr

[Arkady Renko]

goof, you sound like a broken record. It's nothing but a stupid forum handle, the person behind them has always been the same.

[Dr Death]

Hiya buddy!

[Arkady Renko]

Hiya, Death!

[redred]

hey Arkady hows all the changes going over there? hope it all works out well for you guys and DM

[Arkady Renko]

uh, not that great, dm is still in the process of moving the new board to a smaller server. Since the downscaling the old proprietary box was even more oversized than it was before. Apparently the malware problem is fixed though. Nonetheless I'd really like to know how it got into the old forum in the first place so we could prevent it from happening again. If you're interested I can let you know once it's working again.

[redred]

that would be nice mate thank you,hope he gets it all sorted and built up into something great again

[Arkady Renko]

yeah, thanks. I believe great in terms of quality is still the objective, but it's pretty clear that it will be a back to the future thing, much smaller than it used to be for a few years. But I don't think that's a bad thing. Why don't you form your own opinion once you can?

[redred]

i will speak for only myself ,but i'll pop in and say hello and see how it's doing just as you've come over here so don't get rid of my account just yet

[Arkady Renko]

Nah, don't worry, seeing how we didn't delete the accounts of people banned over five years ago, I don't think you have anything to be concerned about.

[redred]

good to know

[Major Tool]

Hi, all! I'm Meursault from anothersite. Just wanted to say hello and let you know I'm still alive. I'm not sure if I'm gonna stick around yet, so don't be disappointed if I don't.

Hey there, Arkady (Meursault). I will be disappointed if you don't stick around. If I don't see you here, I'll see you there!

[Arkady Renko]

I appreciate your potential disappointment.

[Goofy]

Nah, don't worry, seeing how we didn't delete the accounts of people banned over five years ago, I don't think you have anything to be concerned about.

I see you guys did remove certain privileges from certain posters though.......... and that disappointed me, i thought the amount of help i (and certain others) had given over there over the past few years would have meant something, obviously not
