I said this on the Futures of Geneforge thread, but I shall repeat myself. There's no point in arguing over spelling and grammar.Using your personality book against someone would hold far more weight if anyone here even understood what that's about. -------------------- I tried to think of something witty to put here.

I am wondering if there is anyone besides Jeffy, Salmon, and myself active on this board who is thirty-something. You know—us ancient, cranky, over the hill, never quite grew up sort of people. I also wonder if there is someone even older lurking around. -S- -------------------- A4 Item Locations A4 Singleton G4 Items List G4 Forging List The Insidious Infiltrator Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

quote:I may be ancient and cranky, but, but, who are you again? I think there are older, reputedly Fenwik is wicked old and ef is gracefully aged. And I would hardly consider Jeffy to be active on these boards. For that matter, you seem to have grown some sort of life yourself.

What's with Salmon and "What gives"? :P And at the risk of getting flame, isn't Gizmo over 30? or close to it? Posts: 1035 | Registered: Friday, April 1 2005 08:00 |

quote:What gives is that I may be dangerously close to growing up finally. :eek: Changing careers to something you truly love and which energizes you in the middle of your life, and at the same time actively pursuing dating successfully could do that to a person. God, I might even eventually get myself married off yet. If it weren't for Jeff beguiling me like a wickedly sly drug pusher with the offer to beta-test G4 recently, I might have gone off the brink into respectable and responsible behavior entirely. -S- [ Wednesday, October 25, 2006 18:10: Message edited by: Synergy ] -------------------- A4 Item Locations A4 Singleton G4 Items List G4 Forging List The Insidious Infiltrator Posts: 2009 | Registered: Monday, September 12 2005 07:00 |

I receive those comments graciously and with due thanks to their authors. I appreciate it. I do not remember exactly, but I am pretty sure that some of the older members knew of my age around the time when I first registered. Back then my PDN was Keep, from which derives Garrison. The sarcastic remark, by the way, was supposed to be a balancing post of mine in support of Tully since I had admonished him earlier; yet for some reason, I did not want to put my seal of grammar on it at the time. Anyway, what really fascinates me is how these message boards became a place for the occasional in depth rational discussion in the first place. EDIT: To Salmon: Yes, I was being like totally sarcastic. To Lazarus: Avernumscript comes very easily if you know C or have ever tried to script anything useful before. Knowledge about computers came as a necessity because when I got my Windows XP computer, either I had to secure and configure everything or no one would have.

quote:There are some older adults here, just not very many of them. Saunders and SoT are the only other currently active ones I can think about. If it makes you feel better, my father also plays these games and he is over 50. (Although he doesn't use internet much.) EDIT: Saunders, Student of Trinity, Salmon, Synergy... is there some sort of deeper wisdom that makes people start their names with the letter S?
