GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con
Thursday, Oct 8, 2009

.. Four years ago. A mate of mine told me about an Internet site on games. He'd been bugging me for a while and telling me about a certain "reporter" writing reviews for GS who liked exactly the same games as he did. I never really agreed on what a game should be with most GS reporters. But after reading a few user reviews I started reading more of those which gave me a better resource then any "professional review" ever could.

Not soon after I got into contact with a few GS members who told me about the union community. Groups of gamers liking a certain game, game character game Sty le. That's where the fun started for me. At first most people I ran into were Americans. And we all know how annoying they can be But in time I learned there were others like me. (scary thought isn't it? )

I soon forgot about the main GS forums and started posting in these unions. The OSUwas the first union I joined. And many followed after that. Places like Squaresoft union, Mafia Union and They Came To Play each kept me posting for a while. But I'll have to admit. One union kept me here most. The SKS I'm actually still a part of it. Even after turning my back on all those other unions. But each of these unions and many others brought me good times and many laughs.

But every union is just as good as it's members. A good leader is great. Active officers are a blessing. But enthusiastic members are what makes a union worth coming back to. I guess this blog is mostly me saying, Thank you for a good time. No worries. I'm not saying good bye. Or better yet. Please worry. I'm not saying good bye

Some days I come here and find out none of my posts made sense. Some of you might say those days are most days. And you may be right. But I come here to make some fun. If I manage to make a fool out of myself and get a laugh while doing so that's a bonus.

That mate of yours was responsible for you GS addiction but he never shows up himself Well smitti, he did a good thing indeed This blog is touching and shows how you feel toward GS community and your friends. It was really nice getting to know you and you are definitley one of my most favorite GS friends and one of those people I would have liked to know in person. You were also an excellent Union leader and TCTP was definelty the best and most fun GS Union I was a member in. I guess it was my brother who introduced me to GS, but he never became a member himself It took me a couple of years before finding out about the community and become a member. This site is still fantastic, the best gaming site and I still enjoy coming here, meeting friends and getting first hand gaming info

Nice one with the spoiler. Though I have to admit I can't remember why I joined GS. I think I did it because originally I just loved the video game aspect of it. Then I learned about the unions and I went crazy. For me my union drug became TCTP, but I have to admit that SKS is an amazing union. As far as meeting people goes I can say I've met some wonderful people on here.

@ GM, Mits and Dane. You mention the spoiler .. sometimes I think you guys read my blogs just and only because of them

@ khatibi22 Sometimes fate brings us strange twists With those who brought us here and maybe one day it will give us a chance to meet. Time will tell ..

If it weren't for my boy Smitts, I may have decided much earlier that I was done with this site entirely. When all the SKS "founders" were quickly dropping out, your nonsensical posts kept me coming back. Then I became leader and was forced to come back. But now it's all optional. Be flattered!!!

Nice spoiler BTW

@ dQuarters (from now on ) I'll try and be as nonsensical as possible so you can be real proud of me

You can't turn your back on SKS or you'll get shanked.
Posted Oct 9, 2009 1:27 pm PT
I agree with IG. You will get shanked among other things that Silent Killers do...
