So I want to know: who is everyone's best friend here on the Escapist? Who has personally affected you the most? Who do you like talking to on here the most? Do you have anyone you know from real life? Do you have anyone you'd like to know in real life?

I think it would be interesting to hear who everyone on here is friends with so I thought I'd ask. Hearing about other people's friends makes me happy.

As for me, being so new here I don't really have anyone like that yet. But I'm sure I'll make a friend on here eventually.

Well I have a IRL friend on here but he isn't active in the forums.

When it comes to people I'd mention it'd have to be the people from the Barclays Premier League User Group
Aris Khandir
Carlsber Export
Razer17
Rawne1980
Demon ID

and the rest of the guys there (we're 10 in total)
Great people to discuss football with :D

Also tenth post for you, welcome I guess :D
Will feel strange to have the user name TheNewGuy after 3 years and 20k posts ;)

Some of those people are...
T0ad 0f Truth, TizzytheTormentor, Beffudled Sheep, Fappy, Casual Shinji, burningdragoon, Colour-Scientist, Doclector, Imp Emissary, Lucem712, Nantucket, PsychicTaco115, Revnak, SonicWaffle, LoneWanderer, Pretty much the whole injustice league, quite a few of the brovengers. The whole of the "Forum Games" community (Which needs more people).

I like talking to people and I'll pretty much talk to anyone who cares enough to talk to me in return.
(Sorry in advance for inevitably not including someone).

I don't really have any friends on here, just entertaining people. And the most entertaining/infuriating person to grace these forums so far is Danyal. Everyone in the Escapist Linux Users groups is also automatically cool.

Only one user really went out of his/her way to welcome me to the new Escapist forums after I spent an extended time away. The username is Redlin5.

Pretty much anyone in the Brovengers chat, since they're the ones I chat about a variety of subjects to the most.

I'm not in the mood to pick favourites, so a general shout out to every active member of the Injustice League and the Pub Club, also to everyone I role-play with here, especially Grand Mythos and also Prey when it was running.

lacktheknack I think. Jolly fellow indeed. Synchtube sessions with him are great fun (especially when watching supposedly-for-kids cartoons).

EDIT: Exactly 4200 posts? Well that's not a particularly big milestone, but I shall commemorate it anyway. WOO!

My BEST friend? Wow, difficult, I have so many to choose from. Let's see, there's . . . umm . . . that guy with the avatar that was from that thing . . . or that person who complimented me once . . . or . . . uhh. . .

. . . oh, wait, I have no friends.

I think it goes without saying that this person [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view] is pretty damn awesome.

[sub][sub][sub][sub][sub][sub][sub][sub]Oh come on, someone had to do it.[/sub][/sub][/sub][/sub][/sub][/sub][/sub][/sub]

EDIT: Fucking hell. Ninja'd and ninja'd hard.

I suppose I could just make this a proper post and list a few people, but I'd feel like I was sucking up. If you're one of the people on here who I especially like and/or respect then you probably know it by now.

D'aaaw shucks... Thanks, chum!

OT: I have a hard time recognizing when someone is actually "a friend", having social issues and trouble taking initiative and all that. But I've been able to get along fine with Eclipse Dragon lately. And Flamezdudes has been fun for discussions, too, seeing as we're both NGE fans. And us Eva fanboys need to stick together.

Then there's FargoDog. Don't know if I'd say we're friends, but the guy can write some damn fine reviews, and I always kinda respected him for that.

Have to agree with Guffe.

Great to have people to talk about a subject close to my heart (football that is, not my rib cage). And they are great people.

Before meeting these guys the most conversation I got was with my wife who's knowledge of football is "ooh look, they kick a ball".

Fuck yea!

-cough-

Right, right. Well, of course a shout-out to all The Injustice League Bastards (except that one guy [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view]) And of course, to PsychicTaco being one of my first major friends on the Escapist and my presidential running mate; I shall murder him one day to take all his taco-y powers

And of course non Injustice League members; Vault101, Fappy, Tizzy, Evil Smurf and many others whom I cannot name because I am bad with names. /stalking mode
