Muckraker  Posts: 260 Joined: 4 Jul 2008     | Hi I joined about two weeks ago. I'm a teenage boy from South East London and I have an afro. I post here because it seemed like a more mature society than the one I was previously posting at and I hope to expand my gaming knowledge! |
On the Record  Posts: 5674 Joined: 2 Dec 2007     | Hi I join about 8 and a half months ago. The Escapist looks like a friendly site so I thought I would join. I hope to meet some interesting people who enjoy what I do. |

On the Record  Posts: 5138 Joined: 3 Mar 2008    | Hi, I'm Krunk, I am infamous for my scribbling, and I have recently achieved the status of the world's greatest Surrealonomist... mainly because I'm the only one. I enjoy sharing my opinion, regardless of others' opinions of my opinions. I also don't like to opinionate other people's opinions of my opinions, but if they are sharing opinions of not my opinions, I like to give my feedback. I also like to confuse people. |
Anonymous Source  Posts: 8 Joined: 24 Jul 2008   | Hello - new...ish.... here. New in the sense I finally made an account and finally decided to post in the forums. Less new in the fact I've been watching Zero Punctuation for... six... months? I got linked to him by a friend and just think the site is awesome. Also love watching Videogame theater and Drawn by Pain. I'm 22, female (OMG!!) and I live in far north queensland in Australia. It is presently not raining (considering we were at flooding point yesterday - fun) and I have a throat infection after two weeks of pain from wisdom teeth removal... ok now I'm ranting. I'm Erica, but people call me Erry or Ekka or Errykins, depending on my mood and tolerance level. So HI |

Copy Clerk  Posts: 90 Joined: 24 Jul 2008    | Hello everyone. I have been following the forums for a few months now and finally decided to sign in. I like cactuses, hate jeans and try to avoid direct sunlight. I also like to make absurd statements in the middle of a conversation. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 4433 Joined: 14 Jan 2008  | Hello, my name is Kenny and Well, I was a lurker here for a while but when I did decide to join I made a promise to bring this website to its knees. I am a huge Halo fanboy and the only thing I like more than Halo is DMC (all the real ones, DMC2 doesn't count.) Edit as of 13/12/08 |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 2141 Joined: 23 Jan 2008   | Yeah OK, hi. I've been a member since the start of this year, obviously, but didn't start to actually POST anything until I found there were some really awesome role-players here. So that's where you'll normally find me. In other topics, I prefer to just listen (uh.. read). |

Beat Writer  Posts: 198 Joined: 7 Mar 2008 | Chris from somewhat east of the middle of the US. i joined a little less than a month ago (as in finally starting to contribute to the forums) and i enjoy writng reviews and stuffs here since gaming forums such as these are the only places left on the internet that aren't filled with duchebags. And this is an especially impressive duchebag-free zone. |
On the Record  Posts: 5966 Joined: 7 Feb 2008   | Pedro Steckecilo, now suddenly with more gonzo. I lurked for awhile, mostly just watching ZP and reading the articles but then I decided to start posting because I wanted to say something about...something, it's been awhile so I can't remember what my first post was. Anyway, what else can I say about myself... I'm a Canadian from Canadia, I'm a Traditional RPG advocate and ocasional bulldog, I really love Steampunk and Pulp Adventure and I have yet to be banned or put on probation. Other than that all I can say is that I'm a 24 year old university graduate who sold his soul to the oil industry for a decent paycheck and benefits. I'm also (apparently) doing my best to look like Yahtzee, as I've been wearing a trillby and growing a beard, soon I'll find him, kill him and replace him... probably shouldn't have spilled my plan should I... probably not. |
Copy Clerk  Posts: 107 Joined: 8 Jun 2008 | Yeah I am here. I love videogames, baseball, and metal. Thats about it. Friend showed me ZP's reviews. Loved um sense. Oh, and I HATE Bush(I am from the US) |
Anonymous Source  Posts: 1 Joined: 12 Jul 2008 | Hello. I'm not even much of a lurker here, only knowing of The Escapist via Zero Punctuation. The main reason I joined these forums is to plug Dominions 3 (without being labeled a spammer of course), hopefully getting enough people talking about it to prompt a review from Yatzee (which will in effect plug it even more). I'm neutral about most things video game, so opine away with me. Politically (because everything online is politics, porn, or publishing, exactly as Ben Franklin intended), I'm (if I may use US terminology) left-center and disgusted by the extremes on *both* wings. My big political interest (if you can call it that) is physically transformative enhancement technologies (If anyone can think up a concise term that doesn't have the stigma that "transhuman"does, I'd love to read it.) I'm not particularly active, however, and won't be until the big names in transhumanism get out of the ivory tower. Two lean & meaty paragraphs, each with a plug. I think that's a good start. (Edited, for the mods don't like links. Not a problem.) |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3252 Joined: 8 May 2008 | Hello, my name is the monopoly guy, and I came here because it is immense amounts of unmitigated awesome. I'd known about the site for a while and finally joind the 8th of May and don't want to give up my Pulitzer Laureate somewhow I haven't been banned yet but it's either because of my charisma or the mods are just waiting in the undergrowth...waiting...but I have a feeling it's coming up soon. |

Anonymous Source  Posts: 5 Joined: 23 Jul 2008 | I just joined the other day after being a lurker in the forums for a while, although I first came to the site via Zero Punctuation. I'm Hannah, I'm from England and I'm a student in Computer Games Design (just finished my first year). I'm into drawing/digital painting, music and games, of course. It's nice to see a forum that has some real discussion going on, not just pages of flaming and lolcats. P.S. I enjoy long, romantic walks on the beach etc. |
Beat Writer  Posts: 185 Joined: 12 Jun 2008 | I'm Kate (and if Hannah is who I think she is, she knows me as Amelia Bosque and is the person who pointed me to the site.) I'm in Iowa, sell insurance and if you can't find me here, you can find me at PanHistoria, pretending I know what the hell I'm doing and why I'm suddenly part of the staff over there. Never looked at ZP, although I understand a lot of you love it and think it's funny. I'm here...well, to avoid thinking about my job, mostly. If I thought about it too hard I'd scream until my head exploded. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1566 Joined: 5 Dec 2007  | I am the resident ignorant religious nut here, known as Samuel Paulsson. I like making references to books that make me look smart and trying to read them afterwards (often failing). Playing Devils Advocate is one of my favorite past-times and I have a tendance to be fanboyish to people I admire. |

Infamous Scribbler  Posts: 515 Joined: 23 Jul 2008  | I joined just yesterday, actually. You can thank Yahtzee originally for luring me to the Escapist, that was about two months ago. I decided to join the forums when I discovered how intelligent and, dare I say it, mature everybody acts around here (seriously, you guys know that this is the internets, right?). I was so darn impressed that I even took the trouble to custom-build my own avatar. I think I'm gonna like this place. |

Press Junketeer  Posts: 498 Joined: 24 Jul 2008   | Hi.. I whould like to classify me as a wierd dude and a gamer... Im realy fond of intelligent and philosofical discussions and will probably annoy some people with saying that 'you cant know if this exists' and 'you cant know anything, you can only belive' and other philisofical crap that annoyed the hell out of my classmates during class... oh yhea I am also a skeptic cynic that belives in love(or rather WANTS to belive in love so mutch that I ignore the fact that its realy just a chemical reaction in the brain that last for about 3 years) but realise that I will probaby never find love... well who cares, its not like somone is actually going to read this crap anyway... PS oh yhea Im a swede so forgive my occasional grammar and spelling mistakes... |
