Title: Forumer snapshot: Laser60
Post by: King of Twitch on August 14, 2014, 03:58:45 PM
A memorial for posters who no longer post.
Here's a forum poster that signed up over 11 years ago and only make 13 posts, a forum-life less than 2.5 months between February 01-April 12, 2003. His last login was 3 months later on July 18, 2003.
From what we can tell he liked positivity (likely a result of his Wisconsin roots), was an enthusiastic Zelda fan and a jock, but owned both a PS2 and Gamecube--a truly unique soul.
We don't know whether he got bored with posting, forgot his password, got in trouble for being on the internet, or became indifferent to gaming in general, but we will never forget his memory. His last words were a fitting self-epitaph, suggesting a planned retirement from the community:
Hey, Blood. What have you thought of the game so far? Is it as fun as TOOT? What about length? Any other stuff that makes the game different than other games.
Dude, the Ocarina of Time commercial was slick! I loved the ending, when it said something like "willist thou save the princess, or willith thou suck?"
I am very skeptic, but who knows what could happen. Over that the Gamefaqs boards there are several topics stating zelda is shipping on the 17th from EBgames. Heres the link to the biggest topic http://s2.cgi.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.asp?board=3447&topic=6903955 (http://s2.cgi.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.asp?board=3447&topic=6903955)
Well, I own Madden 2003, NCAA 2003, Rocky, and a few other sports games, but thats mostly cuz I am a jock. But, all these games are for my PS2, so I can compete with my friends on their PS2s. My gamecube is for Metroid, Zelda, Mario, Star Fox, etc...
No no no, i know what it is. I saw the explanation at ign a while ago. What it is, is a result of a new technique where you get multiple colors of a small color palet, many more colors than you normally could use. The lines are just a side effect that shouldnt really be there.

Looks like he only needed a few months to see that NWR forums were occupied soely by negative nancys.

If it took him months to figure that out he clearly wasn't perceptive enough to get the most out of our experience.

He was holding us wrong.

I like this. Can't wait for this series on long-forgotten posters to continue. Wonder who will be next?

This is a hit it and quit it type thread, I don't think making many of them would be a good idea.

I was thinking one thread where we can post about departed forum members. I think we used to have one but that was more serious.

I agree with Stratos, we should have a thread where we can take unnecessary shots at people who aren't around to defend themselves anymore.

If only such a thread existed. It doesn't count as cyber bullying if they aren't around. Conscience = clean.

Man, looking at those old posts, I think only ThePerm and Ian Sane are still around from them... and reading them makes me miss Hostile Creation and his leopard sheets.
