CIV Old Timers... Welcome Back!

[Ming]

The Old Timers thread is one I miss already. It was great to see long gone posters coming back and checking in with the news of Civ VI.

Yes, we do have a Civ VI Forum http://apolyton.net/forumdisplay.php/394-Civilization-6

But that doesn't mean we can't try to find more Old Civers.

So feel free to keep coming back and checking in. You can also use this thread to discuss Civ VI or Civ in general.
And also feel free to join the discussion in the Civ VI Forums.

KEEP ON CIVIN'

I've let Solver know; he was pretty put out about the old thread going away.

-Hope we can chat about whatever this time without the assigning blame coming into reflections on old times...

[Ming]

Yes this thread should be about the old timers coming back and CIV VI... Not ancient feuds.

As I said in the old thread... the past is the past. Let's live in the present.

Everybody is welcome back.
So let's not act like little kindergarten children

It was great seeing some ancient names. I hope they stick around. It always feels weird when I realize that I've been active on Poly longer than some of the people that were here from the very beginning.

The past is there, history, and no ignoring it - it can be interesting and that's fine. Just, when insults and argument come in, it sorta ruins the purpose of the thread. I certainly intend to follow the wishes of the Admin/OP, in this - as is always a really good idea...

Let me further this by saying that all ancient feuds and flame wars can be directed to the appropriate place... the newest AAHZ-Thrade™, which is accumulating view counts at an alarming rate i might add. You see, there AAHZ-Rules™ apply... Among other things.

I'll be waiting.

So... anything new in the last week or 2 while I was away? I notice old 'ignore's have been reactivated...

Not much... only lost the entire forum since Feb 1st... but otherwise, everything is simply dandy

[Kropotkin]

Old timer... hmmm... I prefer the term temporally enriched.

welcome back.

When I joined, my first kid was in diapers. Now he's a senior.

It truly feels weird to see how long it's been. I joined this site when gaming was still generally for nerds and saying you play games wasn't always socially acceptable. And I've been here through the time when it became far more mainstream, when sites like this became huge, and now through increased commercialization of games and the gradual shift of attention from fansites to social media. Also interesting to think that Apolyton is ancient by Internet standards - turned out that websites disappear quickly, and not many outside of government and huge corps have been continuously operating since the late 90s.

I also remember how much time and effort it took me to put together a coherent post in English when I started here. Ah memories

[Buster Crabbe's Uncle]

^It's true.^ I remember when Sleeper there used to devote time and effort to anything, and I've only been around seven years.

(He knows I'm kidding, Ming; it's cool.)

[Dale]

To be honest, I don't know if I've ever mentioned this, but I'm a DL.

Yep....... truth.

I originally registered in 1999 after CtP was released as the handle UCK. A nickname I was given late 80s that stuck. But I fled after being attacked here because I had no idea UCK was a genocidal splinter group in the Yugoslav war.

Anyways came back later for CtP2 as this. Have been this on forums ever since.

This is Poly. If you refuse to ignore history, our servers will simply delete it.
