...you create too many avatars.

...joined shortly after Dunesday (I think)

...was around when the dungeon was public.

And to add what you had Dunenewt

...was around when dune generations had a messageboard here.

Posted

... you opened this thread knowing you'll be groaning at some of the truths here.

... you've had several attitudes towards religion (often dramatically different) play out in threads over time.

... you still fear the dungeon... and what Gob hides in there ever since hiding it from most (the lucky ones).

... you'd gladly take whoever is in the area out to the bars for some good times (actual bodies to match the names would be weird).

...you remember who Davo is.

Damn, I was going to use that one!

...when you remember Edric's Ordos/Harkonnen organisation against the Atreides.

...when you remember the Fed2k mIRC chatroom and the interviews we had on it.

...you remember the old debate about tanks in the Arrakis game.

...your post count is understated because you joined before this forum was set up.

...you remember the post by Delphi that said "a storm is coming" a few weeks before Westwood officially announced Emperor.

...you posted in the old "Religion" thread before PRP was set up (44 pages of replies in four months, locked in April 2002, still the 6th longest thread of all time).

...you posted in the old "Spew All About Politics Here" thread (24 pages of replies in three months, last post in December 2002, still the 10th longest thread of all time).

...you remember the time before Edric was a communist (!) - yes, there was such a time.

-when you find out what Gob keeps in the dungeon.

-when you are caught by Gob and put in the dungeon. :D

"Mutant Goldfish? have no clue..."

It's actually Navaros. Or was, until Gob ate him. That's why there's a ban spellcheck on talking about certain aquatic species.
