I have hit my 1000th post! This is a big landmark for me, as I am now in QUADRUPLE-DIGITS! Now, there are people like Grey Ninja and PIAC who have closer the 3000, but I'm on my way! Let us partake in a celebratory hive-five!
*hi-fives everybody*
That was fun! Now for those of you who brought their own booze, drink up!
*doesn't drink*
And now I will tell you a brief history of my life at the PGC forums.
________________________________________________________
When I first came here, I was known as "KnowsNothing" and I am currently under the name of "KnowsNothing." This was my first and only forum at the time, and to this day, it is the only one I post in more than once a month.
When I first came here, I was unfamiliar with the terminology. People often used the word "thread" but for a while the definition had eluded me. But as I progressed in my PGC career, I learned what not only what "thread" meant, but also some essential acronyms such as: LOL, LMAO, ROTFL, BTW, OMG, OMFG, IMO, WTF and some others, I'm sure.
My first avatar was one of Homestarrunner, a popular "no-arms wiley" from the hilarious flash site
www.homestrrunner.com. But that one was soon replaced by a lovely message stating "I like to steal bandwidth from others." I then was avatar-less for a while, until I got my next avatar off of some hosting site. Some people may remember this avatar as "GIR riding a piggy"
After the hosting site went down, I got smartness and opened an Angelfire account.
I had my fair share of posting in multiple sections and pointless threads, but since then I seem to have gotten…umm…better.
When I was starting to get bored around here, I joined in the wacky-crazy-loonyness that is the Aussie thread. Since then, I have become a regular poster there. I have accumulated most of my posts in the Aussie thread and General Chat. I am now legally insane. Thank you, the Aussies.
Often times, I have encountered many problems and error messages on my computer. When this happened, I would turn to the town drunkard, Grey Ninja, for help. He has helped me on numerous occasions, and also has inspired me to purchase Xenogears and Metal Gear Solid for my PS, both of which I am happy with. He is also the reason I got Morrowind to work on my crappity-crap PC. Thanks you stupid drunk jerk.
I often PM people about the size of their avatars. Most people thank me for this and change them quickly. Only once have I been flamed by another person, and that person happened to be a “VIP.” Since then, I have not seen this VIP post. I think I scared her away. Tee-hee.
Throughout my stay here, I have a more sophisticated taste in videogames, and I am now a big fan of anime.
Other stuff happened too.

The reason I have stuck with PGC is the reason most people despise it. The mods. I welcome the mods and think they do a great job keepinf the forums clean. People say this site is strict, but it makes it more fun to visit. I don’t want to see huge banner avatars that take up the whole screen, and I don’t want stupid racist punks swearing at me in “AOL talk.”
I like the number of members, too. People say that it’s small, but it creates a sense of community that I really like. When I visit other forums I feel like an outsider, but from day one I felt welcome here. I think it may be the color scheme. The forums may not be too active, but that makes me look forward to any new posts.
I plan on staying here and continuing to post regularly and I hope I can bring my post count up well into the thousands. And in the words of PIAC,
“I WILL SAY SOMETHING USEFUL ONE DAY.”
~Thank you~
P.S. I know I promised a song, but my friend with the microphone has decided to take a little vacation to New Hampshire. I’ll get the song up ASAP, but I don’t have a clue when that will be.
