After 7 Months Gone, I Have Finally Rejoined The Collective!

And I brought someone with me! :D

Before I left, I was able to get my girlfriend a copy of the game and, for a little while, her and I played it together. She loved it and I told her that I'll do my best to get her a Lifetime Subscription.

Which I did. hehe

First off, I wanted to say that, over the last seven months, I guess the best way to describe my feelings looking around at the forums and all of you posting messages would be someone who was watching a giant pond with many many fish swimming around inside, but, through these last months, I've enjoyed everyone's posts and their takes on what's been going on with the game since I've been away, but, in some topics, it was, admittedly, frustrating to see some topics that I had been dying to participate in, but forced to sit on the sidelines.

It's almost cruel, when ya think about it...:p

I wanted to extend a special hello to my new Friends: hort_wort, Capulet, Captain_Zero, Wally_Androvar, Ravenstein, CAPTWinters, Pahoran, bradpwns, XC_Yuitsa and ERT_Shooter. *waves*

I wanted to thank you all for accepting my requests during my time off and, with my new title, I can promise that I'll be around as long as the game and I hope to take part in many exciting and thought-provoking discussions (meanwhile, you're probably all thinking, "He's been gone for seven months and was checking Ten Forward...doesn't he know we don't do thought-provoking? :D)

I'm just really, really really happy to be back and I missed everyone very much! :) See you around the forums and the game!

    Thanks for the welcome back and thanks for letting me know. :D I thought it met the requirements. :o

    EDIT: I double-checked the attributes and changed 153 to 150, then re-saved it and copied it again, uploading it here. :) It should be okay now. :cool:

    You did and thank you for taking the time to do that. :)

    Unfortunately, though, when I tried to click on the pictures [well, the TOS one], it said that it had been deleted. :confused:

    Her and I are real happy together, hort, but I'm always happy to have another friend...if you'll accept my friendship, of course. :)

    I lost my job a year ago. Thankfully I don't actually require employment. My wife makes a killing at the family restaurant. So I've been Mr. Mom for the past year. :D

    I did save up for months to get a lifer acct. Best thing I could have done. I love hanging out here. I don't always post as much as I'd like....nor do I play as much as I'd like...but at least it's there when I can. :D

    Text or image, read the rules. Before giving out advice (however good) learn to live with the rules.

    Sorry if I could subscribe to Superlink1s' posts I would and the cancel my cable. Snookie has nothing on this....

    Once I read the dimensions for the what the image had to be, I fixed the Attributes in my Paint program; I must've just forgotten to double check them before I saved it. hehe

    Oh, and hort, I read on another post you're a fan of the web-series "The Guild", but specifically Felicia Day (who plays Codex)?

    I've got something interesting to show you. :)

    This can also serve as an updated picture of myself for everyone [since this was taken last year]...

    ....Welcome back. You may find things have changed round here.

    For starters, a lot of the old regulars have become waylaid; SaintHazard being a prime example.

    And I'm probably the only EU player to frequent here for a garunteed 6 days a week! :eek:

    you might want to re-look at yours too. you are allowed one of the other. if you use both then you need to scale back the image in width like mine. say 500x120 and one line of text or 500x90 and 2 lines. your is a bit tall at the moment.

    Thanks! :) I'm glad I was able to actually access the forums and read about all the updates (as well as seeing pictures at the STO Wiki site), otherwise I probably might've been floored at some of the drastic changes (Spacedock, sector space, THE FOUNDRY, etc.). LOL

    Well, I guess it's to be expected; seven months is a long time. hehe

    :eek: Wow! I remember I used to play about six hours a day for 5 days a week and four or five hours on Saturday and Sunday when I had my monthly membership, but, I have to say that, besides getting to communicate with all of you guys again, the greatest part about being a Lifer is I don't feel I have to cram everything into a set time period. I can actually pace myself and take in the sights.

    Though I haven't really gotten a chance to do that yet, I plan to soon. :) I might take the weekend off, I might not...I haven't decided yet. hehe

    Eh up lad. I'm here... Pretty much ALL the time <_<

    And welcome back, it's nice to see people returning to the game. I wonder if my various bets with the haters and trolls still stands

    But I digress. Welcome back to STO. Welcome back to Ten Forward. Have a cookie :)

    Thanks so much for the welcome back [and the cookie...yummy!] :)

    I gotta say I love your avatar; "House" (both the show and the character...hehe) totally rocks! :D

    oh and welcome back.

    Im not sure if the c-store is your thing but check out the TOS bundle pack advertised on the launcher. The TOS bridge (see sig) and interior is pretty awesome.

    Thanks! :)

    hehe As for the TOS bundle, I already got it and you can bet the first thing I did was visit the bridge. hehe Absolutely amazing! :)

    A few slight errors I noticed, but they definitely weren't glaring enough to distract me from the feeling I had walking through those halls. :) Everyone at Cryptic did a wonderful job with this and, if this is the level of quality they put into all of their upcoming classic interiors (TNG, Voyager, Enterprise, films), I totally can't wait for 'em! :D

    That's okay. The love I have for her is a pure, happy love. She can fly free and live life. I will be happy so long as she is....
    Don't I look happy?!

    If it makes you feel any better, hort, Felicia's got a Twitter account; you could always profess your love for her through that. :)

    I caution you against hugging the local wildlife. One Hort attaches himself he can be quite painful to remove.

    Does anybody not warn people anymore?
