CapNColostomy Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 Oh, well why didn't you just say it was you? *re-opens blinds and removes pants.* There you go, enjoy! Anyways, to get on topic. This is the sort of thing that LF does for me. Just random silly stuff that gives me a good laugh. That and the music and gaming discussions. Cool stuff, usually.
Redwing Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 Good: Improved my writing abilities and made me more creative (not typing abilities, I mean in RPGs ) Speaking of which, gotten me into RPGing when my friends failed at it. Gotten me some VERY good friends. ^_^ And a whole bunch of very nice acquaintances. Bad: Sucked away who knows how much of my 'valuable' time. Made my grammar WORSE. Got me into the habit of staying up half the night and sleeping half the day during high school. Which isn't as bad now, but it's still there. Neutral: Made me a bigger Star Wars nerd than most of my friends. (...at least for a while. Now I've forgotten half the stuff, and rely on theforce.net for the SW RPGs. ) Made my Internet friends mostly guys, in direct contrast with my "real life" friends, who are almost all girls. XD
Mike Windu Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 I'm gonna go out on a limb and say the reason you have all guy friends on the internet is because there's a grand total of 1 female swampie now...? I'm keeding. Good: I get to sleep with all the mods >_> Bad: This includes Rhett.

Bad things: _Turned me into a cynical tyranical bastard. _Inherrited LF insomnia, the way the guys in dune developed the dark blue eyes. _Causes me to express myself with "pictures" alot more than I would otherwise. _Sometimes I spend more time posting on these forums, than I do playing the games I talk about so often. _Increased my MSN list to numbers I cannot even caculate. _Helped me discover mIRC.

IG-64 Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 Good: Gave me a social life, people to talk to, and something to do when times in my life were getting bad, gave me friends, that actually talk to me and aim me and care about me. Got me to use the comp more and go on the internet more often, improved my reading, typing, and charisma skills. Bad: Made me a bit meaner, I used to be a really nice person but after I talked to some of the jackasses on the internet I had to learn to stand up for myself. Which could actually be a plus or a minus.
Mike Windu Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 This is where we pray for IG. *plays Taps*

lukeskywalker1 Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 I'll tell you the truth. It has mainly wasted my time (I mean.. who really cares that I am saying this?) Ive met some cool people. I learned almost everything I know about mapping and scripting here. I like the logo at the top. It was my first forum too... so I learned a lot of stuff.

Sabretooth Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 A LOT. It gave me true friends, it gave me basic info on stuff, it showed me the humourous part of the Internet, it gave me everything. LF may not be the classiest, biggest, shiniest, but it is definitely the warmest forum ever created by man. *bows*

Oh, and Groovy I'll get my revenge some day, just you wait. *Evil Laughter*
