Yeah, it'd be awsome if you guys would start showcases.
BTW, was DSL out before you guys left? You should check out Naryar's, Urjak's, MikeNCR's, Mine, R0B0SH4RK's etc for some cool bots.

Yep, I was here when DSL came out and also for some time after that. I created a promotional RFS DSL AI Pack V1.0 for the DSL mod where I updated some of the bots/teams from my previous stock AI packs and also spiced in some new ones for good measure.

I could go to the workshop and pick up my copy of RA2 I suppose, however most of the bots I actually DO have are just the ones that went into my AI packs. I think I have some old pictures though, I will do some searching for you guys. Special.

Who cares about the bots, we have two oldies back. Kinda. Ok, one. I'm sure dracophile will go back to GatorAIDS. (I still love that name.)

Anyway, Deep blue is a non invertible poker? if so, I go for tha thumperizer. But in a lighter note, should we have a tha thumperiser based bot for the new Starcore AI? We have got Ultra Violence... (A play on Ultraviolet which in other words is DEEPER blue...)

GatorAIDS... hehehe. I'd love to see an updated "modern" Thumperizer. For a simple robot design the name went on to be a really annoying AU forum fad. :P

I appreciate having you veterans kicking around. Can we all gather around the campfire and you can tell us bot stories?

Stick to these forums, we all have a pretty good time still. This game is certainly not dead by any stretch of imagination, and , it is still evolving as we speak.

Even though I never met you before, welcome back.

Much like Will Smith, I AM LEGEND, hur hur. :P Okay, you all got me. I will try not to be a stranger anymore. Despite the fact that it PAINS ME GREATLY to still carry "Radio F Software" here I'll kick around. :P

Wow, two vets back on the same weekend. That's like a new record or something.

Anyways, it's always kinda neat when someone from waaaaay back (like, what, 5 years max?) pops back up. We hear about AceUplink and RFSHQ, but very few of us were actually around to see them. From my understanding, it was like one constant flame war (worse than when Venko joined GTM's O: ...). Nowadays, the community is too small to support two communities at e-war.

But welcome back, enjoy your stay, etc, etc. Just please try and stick around longer than some other returnees

February 18th, 2003: Robot Arena 2 is released. I got my copy the day it came out, and I joined AceUplink on March 16th, 2003. RFSHQ opened February 12th, 2004. :3

I was "around" on AceUplink back when it was known as RoboUplink, in the days of the original Robot Arena. SimTycoon (JFranco) was mad at me for calling it RobotUplink on accident.

Way back in the day, when RA2 was still just a demo featuring Nightmare, Yellow Buzzard, and I think a third bot, there were RA1 tournaments. The most feared bot around was a bot by N4S (Need4Speed) named TAWD (Tim Allen's Wet Dream). I took part in such a tournament. In the first round, my former newb self had to fight the great TAWD. When the match begun, he drove into a corner without attacking me. So I attacked and destroyed his bot. The results then popped up, but much to my surprise, it said that N4S won the match. "Now how could that be?" I asked. Apparently on his screen, the exact opposite occurred.

And that is why RA1's online play was so sh**ty.

I have a copy of all the posts of bots you showcased on the robotarena.com forums (inspiration for some of my own bots) somewhere on my computer because you had some really cool bots and had one of the few good showcases that hadn't been deleted yet. I'll see if I can find them again.

FOOD FIGHT......

MAD Scientist already has built a bot that looks like a pack of Marlboro.....maybe he can make one look like food.....and the tournament is on!
I will AI...nevermind, I am stupid......Starcore or madiaba can AI them and the battle is on.....tomato is a fruit....let the fruit wars begin!

JESUS CHRIST..... After reading this for the 3rd time I just remembered the EPIC food fight thread.

Tomato is a fruit.

If someone begs hard enough, I can dig up all of the bot images from AUs bot showcase thread.

We beg harder fo a bot exchange!
Even if it is just a simple one with no pics....or maybe tiny thumbnail links.

I think I have decided.

RFS is gay, and an annoying mother****er who I would love to just hit in the face.

MAD is cool, I remember him a 'lil bit. His bots were always cool as

in my eyes even though they were obsolete.

But yeah, official forums for the win.

BTW RFS, you come off as really, really, queer.
