Level 29 WTF When the hell did I get to level 29? GS is so weird now. I left right before the redesign and now there are widgets and useless junk everywhere. But then again it was much different when I first started here. The forums were just random boards and the only thing keeping people together in them was a locked thread of member's names. Oh yeah ,the background was blue. Times were simpler then and cross unions were not a problem. I must admit I had more fun at the Final Fantasy Legion than I ever did in any Union (except maybe HCU because we played online and fffu). I just wish I wasn't part of the reason why it was destroyed (not entirely my fault, but I was a poor mod and unions put the last nail in it's face)
I miss you guys, but not enough to come back because this place is a drug. It's true, this place is a drug. It is an addicting useless waste of time that satisfies simple interpersonal relations with people who share interests that I think is either too weird to talk too my normal friends about or too unknown for anyone to be as passionate about as me. But I would never want to talk to anime fans or avid video game players in real life because there personalities are shallow dull and predictably lame. Take no offense, but I probable would only like you guys half as much as I do if I were to meet you in real life. So that led me to a place like this and I found myself on the forums. I was posting a crap load and would wait for minutes just to get the reaction out of a person. But it really doesn't add up to anything. These levels are pretty pointless as does most posting unless it is over a topic with real substance and debate. And when I find a place of good debate, it only deteriorates into the same old off topic cheap jokes and nonsense.
So when I lost the back end of GS, the main part of the website was not there to keep me in and perhaps lure me back to the threads in the future. Once Jeff, Ryan, Brad, Alex, and Rich left, there was no reason to stay in GS because their personality alone is what set this site apart. Heck, if GS live was never created, I would never have been so involved in video games to even think about posting in a forum. So I decide to leave GS. I am lucky because Jeff, Ryan, Brad, and Vinny made a new website "GiantBomb.com". It really is a return to the simple, clean system I remember and loved. Plus, just being in the website is fun. It is a wiki site for everything video games and anyone is allow to add to it (once it goes through a mod). I can not only read about new games or talk about old, but I can also enlighten myself with interesting facts and help add to it myself. It is still a VG website, but I must admit that it is much more persistent than this place.
You can find me at giantbomb.com, username McQuinn
and playstation network with the same name McQuinn
If you ever wondered what I look like, here's a pic of me making a face.
