[QUOTE=Lestat]I got the annoying crash to desktop error of the unpatched VTM:B game (end of Society of Leopold) and was looking for a solution.[/QUOTE]

Isn't that VTM:BL?

Sorry, I was making sure I knew which game you were talking about.

[QUOTE=Damuna_Nova]Why couldn't it be something interesting, like you were looking for mutilated rhino pron?[/QUOTE]

Rhino Pron huh? Sounds interesting, might check it out sometime. Never even heard of pron to begin with. Is it anything like Tron?

Nah, I'm simply unable to type some words correctly because my brain is telling my hands that the word is spelt differently behind my mind's back.

That's one of the only pop songs I like.

[QUOTE=dragon wench]I think we might have had threads like this before, but I can't think of a good key word to put in the search engine

Anyway, new peoples here and all, so it doesn't matter

[/QUOTE]

Yep, we had many threads like this before, but as you say, new people and all, so here goes:

After I finished playing BG (I don't remember if it was 1 or 2) I was looking for a walkthrough to see if I had missed anything, and then I found GB. At the time, I was on sick leave for ulcer and my lab was changing particle accelerator which meant no experiments could be performed, so I wasn't as busy as nowadays.

I found the walkthroughs for BG1, BG2, NWN, Diablo II and Fable.

I actually found the forum when trying to get more info about Fable. Lurked at Fable and NWN forums for a couple months then started posting a couple things in Fable. Then I found SYM and it's all been downhill since then.

Had an issue with Icewind Dale 2 if I remember right so googled it and ended up here. Best search ever

I was snooping around on the official VTM:Bloodlines site for patches, where i found the link to GB.

The first time I stumbled upon GameBanshee was when I was googling for the Fable: The Lost Chapters game guide last October. Didn't sign up until I started playing Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic this March.

Searching for help in GB. I was visiting the site for awhile, only started visiting the forums when I found a strange animal's hide and had no idea where it came from.

Then just posting in the game forums for ages (and envious of the high post counts), found SYM, and a combo of toe-dipping and encouragement got me spamming.

You envy the fact that people have no lives?

dj_venom · Post by **dj_venom** » Fri Jul 21, 2006 7:43 pm

No, but I envied the unique names, so I thought a high post count allowed that.

Your asking me to remember what I was doing last october? Well, lets see, it was october, of last year, before november, and after dec... no, after september, yes, so I finished KOTOR II for the umpteenth time, and was starting on actually beating the main quest in Morrowind for the first time, which can only mean one thing. I was searching for information on KOTOR III. Or. I was looking for reliable, helpful information on Morrowind. Or. I felt threatened by Gargamel and so grabbed all of my febreeze and flew away. Most likely the first one though. Or. The second one. I havent seen Gargamel in a few years. So probably not the third one. But you never know.

Oops, I just realized this wasn't the proper place to post that!! Please forgive!

You think that's bad. I joined GB in 2001, and Rav has *many* more posts than I..despite being here for just over a year

Chanak · Post by **Chanak** » Sat Jul 22, 2006 1:45 am

I found GB in 2001 after I had completed BG2 for the first time, and so was looking for ways to get more out of it. Later on I joined, fell prey to the Slurrs, and was somehow shanghaied into SYM from the original BGII forum.

EDIT - Ah yes, I remember now. Ode "invited" me into the Rolling Thunder for a drink after I reached post #50...

i was google searching banshee for a history paper on ireland and this came up. after i figured out that it had nothing to do with actual banshees, i started snooping around the forums. i discovered that it was an RPG gamer site, i figured that it must have KOTOR I & II. since then its been one of the sites i haunt. but hey, i got an A on my report. lol
