Geek Culture / So I'm back... Did I miss anything during the last 5 years? [and a special thanks to the old timers and TGC's crew]

It's been a long time (almost my entire computer engineering course which is a month from being over), but I finally managed to squeeze DBP(DGDK+DarkPhysics actually) back into my "free time"...
I'm currently using it to create a small game to demonstrate the main aspects of my graduation project (a hardware based interface system).

Things have changed quite a bit!

I took the liberty of uploading to my host this image from DavidT (is He still around?) in order to illustrate my last memory from apollo

Just my luck... missing all the hell freezing action!

I doubt anyone will remember me or my wonderful high school A* implementation (back when this was a great achievement ) but I would like to thank (or should I say blame the Apollo old timers(heck I was here even back in the OLD forums) and the TGC crew for the Inspiring me into following the dark side of computer engineering

Thank you guys!

ps. I also blame LEGO mindstorms for the Digital System's part of my title

The conventions/drink-a-thons.

The thread where we all got DB Pyramid tattoos.

A certain user charged people for some software he made then disappeared for a good few months without delivering the product.

You now have to ask the mods to change your username instead of being able to do it from your profile page.

Rich LEFT. He's working for Aardman now (the stop motion animation peeps) and BatVink sorts out the newsletter.

You can now view your post count. http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=post_count

indi, banned? permanently banned???? I missed that, it had to be this last year! I know about a year ago he stepped down from being a mod. I just thought he must have been busy and stepped away for a while. I'll have to see if I can find when/where/how this went down.


Oh and welcome back Proteus!



[edit]
K see benajmin put up a link. Will have to see what the heck happened...

Ummm... I think 90% or more of what he said was, ummm, true!

Don't want to Hijack this thread anymore but perhaps someone can Email me where it says indi is banned!

I don't think it matters whether he was officially banned or not, because he said he was leaving for good and that is what he did.

edit: Oh, and welcome back!

It wasn't just that thread, he went insane in general, like thread-locking rampages. That thread was the climax point I would say.
Welcome back! I don't remember you, but heck!
