I haven't seen another thread like this. Say how long you lurked for, when, and any observations.
I lurked for at least a month before joining. From what I read, I considered Nary a jerk, LDL a jerk, and Nicsan, 40757 and TriTon to be the same person. I was critisized by Nary on YT. I survived and registered.
-
I lurked for a few days, then I joined after making some bots.
-
I just only spend my time in the Downloading section... And I remember one BOTM winner, It was some kind of Full Body Spinner with Flamethrowers & Yellow Iron Spikes.
-
Why was I considered a jerk?
:s
Also I lurked and I remembered people complaining about LRA2.
-
Your original location was what got me.
-
Yeah, the Bush picture. XD
-
Found the forums back in November '08. Didn't spend much time there. In March, I downloaded DSL and started lurking, mostly viewing DSL showcases and some other stuff.
I lurked for three months, and mainly because:
1. I prefer to leave a good first impression when I introduce myself
2. Infiniteinertia
-
I lurked for a year almost always in the front page and download section then I registered, posted then lurked again till I found my fail post (which was almost another year if I remember right) and then i started to post after then.
-

-

Edit: THE GAME
-
THE GAME GRAH
-
I lurked for about 2 months. I didnt have any reason to join till I had an idea for new parts for DSL3 so then I joined.
-
...yup
AAAANYWAAAYS
I've lurked for a loong time cause a few months after I joined (2007 and I was a lurker at the time), the forum changed (its host was "wizforum" or something) and I couldn't find this account anymore. I decided to make another account after I met infiniteinertia on multiplayer and he told me it would be a good idea. After that I re-joined as "Overload" on the wizforum and lurked for a while again, I made a showcase and got critiziced by someone, after that I decided to lurk for a while longer (I also uploaded bots into the old bot exchange). Eventually the forum changed again, this old account showed up again so I continued using it and lurked for a few more months. Then I made my DSL Showcase and here I am.
All of that happened in under the period of three and a half years =P
-
I didn't lurk as such... I got the game, decided I liked it, stumbled across the forums and joined up XD
-
since '07, I finnaly decided to join before I had the game, I would have got it or a Dl sooner or later so I joined.
who here remembers the dark skin?
-
I wish we still HAD the dark skin. The light one drains my cell battery. It also gives me eye strain. Which gives me headaches. Which lead to migraines. And then I puke. I have seriously puked at least twice probably about 3 times from just being on GTM too long.
-
same here, it should be like other forums were you can pick a skin of your own.
-
I lurked for about 3 months or so as I recall, trying to get good, downloading DSL, blah blah blah.
-
Lurked for about 2 months, never really went on the forum much, Finally mustered up my courage and here I am.
-
I lurked since like July 08. I remember believing that everyone played DSL and stock was gay. I stopped lurking in September 08 and then came back again early last year. I got over my "stock is gay" belief after watching BBEANS 5 and tried to become good at it after I got bored in DSL. I eventually tried to get good in DSL too.

You have not lurked a day in your whole damn life!!!
You only remember the dark skin from Way Back Machine where you saw the old forums......AND NOW HAVE STARTED sh** ABOUT THE SKIN!!!!
-
wow....just wow.
ACAMS, I had NO Idea YOU spy on me, Kinda creepy! trust me for once damnit. I have known about RA2 for YEARS and never joined, I used to pop back every now and again beacuse I used to watch BBEANS matches, there is no way for someone to tell me I have not. I never had a reason to join though.
what the HELL?????
-
I am griping about the skin.
OMGWTFWHATNOW.
But seriously. I have puked because of the skin. And it drains my battery that has to be recharged. Which uses electricity.
UR HURTIN TEH ENVIRONMENTS MAN!
-
Nary might probably remember those times I would PM him about n00by stuff. :P
-
^^ Barely
Oh, and i lurked maybe 1 or 2 months. When i was downloading RA2 i was already reading Korium's Bot Building FAQ, and before joining i was reading the beetlebros tutorial.
-
I get a sick pleasure in reading a person's first post and looking at how n00by they were.
Try it sometime!
>:)
-
Yeah well my 1st post PWN'D. >:D

Sometimes i cant take GTM anymore even if im doing something on it
My eyes start hurting alot & I just cant looks at the bright screen anymore...
When i change to another thing with a black/Drak grey skin my eyes dont hurt >_<
Ontopic:
I found the forum coz i wuz looking around to see if there was a new DSL (I had 1.0 back then)
So, I found this forum & Downloaded DSL 2.1.
After that i saw that this forum is alive with RA2 stuff, So i joined the same day...
I thought I was good at building, But I sucked/suck xD
-
LiNcK, have you seen this? (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,3308.0.html)
-
Yeah, I saw it but I dont use Firefox :P
Even if its better, Im used to IE 8 & Im having no major problems with it, So i havent changed from browser yet...
I do have it installed, COz some pages only open in FireFox
-
I really hope you guys don't have the "Brightness" setting on your monitors set to max. Turn it down a bit... play with the contrast setting too.
I never lurked... even on the old forum before this one. If I was here, I was here. I took a year-long sabbatical because life got really complicated and I didn't have much creative energy for RA2 or the community. During that time off I never logged into the forum. Scrap Daddy dragged me back, which was really cool of him.
-
Im not gonna turn down the brightness setting everytime i visit GTM :P
-
how? my comps so new it does not have keys for that :mrgreen:
-
brightness is adjusted on the monitor, not on the computer.
-
LT my friend
-
LT stands for?
-
Laptop
-
ah, then it is a different story yes. i never use laptops really. normal computers for me.
-
Laptops have settings for brightness.......he will never find it, but it is there.
-
I can find it.
jerk
-
Look for a picture of a sun and an up arrow. Usally on the Function Key row. Find it hold down FN and press the key. If you still can't figure it out Try your parents.
-
I have mine on the left and right arrows, in blue so you have to press 'FN'. A blue sun, and an outlined sun. (filled in means darker I assume)
-
You can also go to Power Settings (If you have Vista/7) And adjust it there...
And seriously Sparkey, Calling ACAMS a jerk isnt gonna help you AT ALL
BTW: Hi ACAMS! Never ever talked to u xP
I also turned down the birhgtness in my screen, At first it was too low... But i got used to it now :P
THe white is still too much though...
-
i lurked for about 2 months before i even had the game, i was watching bbeans matches on youtube and found a link here. then i got RA2 and made account here.
-
I got RA2 from my neighbour...
One day he bought alot of games from someone else & We installed them.
We found out that Stock had too much havoking & It was a bit fake so we looked for a Realistic patch, We found out about DSL.
We all installed it & After some months everyone stopped playing besides me, I looked up for a DSL update & Here i am ;D
