Poll: New to the Escapist/ Floaters like me.

I suppose it reach its peak there. You just can't top something like that. I'd argue it hit its peak for me in my first year during the matchup of Blizzard and Relic but the ship shank with Zynga.

Still, that was a March Mayhem to go down in history, what with some user recruiting 4chan, then 4chan coming and spamming the forums with porn.

I heard about the 4chan 'raid' but I never actually saw any of it. Granted I was much younger back then and maybe it was for the better. If it happened today I think I would be able to find some kind of amusement from it at all.

I was pretty young too (wasn't 18 yet 0.0), and while I didn't see a whole lot of it, I saw enough to know the mods were very busy that year.

Must have been one hell of a clean-up. Time to wipe the dust off the ban-hammer .

 

[lRookiel]

Joined in Jun 2010 so class me as "old" I guess, I lurked for a couple weeks before joining in.

 

[Lectori Salutem]

Lurked for a fair amount time, registered, continued lurking, with the occasional post.
No idea where the line between old and new is, though.

 

[YuberNeclord]

Joined last year and I was lurking for six or so months before that. Oh and hello everybody.

Hello, semi new guy. Gotta get that post count up

Yeah I gotta start posting more. For a while I was only checking out the message board maybe once a week, due to being busy with studying and other life stuff. Now that I've got a bit more free time I'm gonna try spending some more of it here.

 

[WWmelb]

Yah visited the escapist for a long time, didn't register til much later, and didn't start posting until much later than that.

 

[Ed130 The Vanguard]

I'm an old soul.

Created an account, lurked, then started posting.

 

[RedDeadFred]

I lurked for an entire year before I finally started making lots of comments. I mostly just came for ZP. Oddly enough, I don't watch ZP anymore but frequent the site more than I used to.

 

[thesilentman]

I'm a new guy, as the join date proudly proclaims. I'm frankly surprised that I hadn't joined the forums till June when I had; I originally lurked around the time of Zeel causing trouble.

 

[BathorysGraveland]

I guess I'm still new, as I've only been here for little over a year. I didn't lurk before that though, I joined up more or less as soon as I found the site (was googling a question about Skyrim at the time). The realisation set in that I had never been part of a video game forum before so I said "Why the fuck not?" and joined. Simple really. I don't watch any of the featured content or anything though, purely here for the forum.

 

[Vault101]

I dont think I really lurked...just jumped right in

 

[Last Hugh Alive]

I've been a member for at least a year, lurking for longer, but I don't post all that often. I skim a lot of threads and absorb all the weekly content I like, but I rarely feel compelled to give my input unless someone hasn't articulated my thoughts on a certain issue that I feel ought to be said.

 

[Kae]

I guess I count as a wrinkly old man curses, I couldn't even write English properly, I remember I googled words left and right, it was awful, and my grammar was painful *shivers*

 

[janjotat]

I found it, lurked for a while. Made an account lurked some more. And now in the last week or so I decided to become an active member of society. In this last week I tripled my post count.

 

[Professor Lupin Madblood]

I lurked for a few months in 2009, then finally created an account and had a brief fling with the site's forums.

There then came a period where I didn't use the forums at all for about three years - I just got back into it in late 2012.

I frequent the forums, but since I never post in anything but Gaming and Off-Topic Discussion, and even then pretty sparingly, my post count is lower than it "should" be. I think.

 

[Scolar Visari]

Found this place sometime in late '6 and actually signed up in'8. Pretty low post count overall and my attitude has gotten considerably more mellow/passive aggressive over the years.

Had some pretty big gaps in visits and I predict I'll have many more. Though in the end, I foresee myself sticking around until the end (whenever that may be).
