Does anyone know who I am?

Apoc, hey thats better than nothing. Says something interesting about the role of visual symbols in the human mind too, but thats not important right now.

Tassadar, I'll have you know I am a close personal friend of Ming's. Or at least he'll remember me from the odd Civ2 game. Either way.

Actually I think avatars are detrimental to forum memory. I don't associate catch phrases or certain personality traits since avatars caught on.

With certain people who disregard avatars, like Jon Miller, I remember his catch phrase (Jon Miller) very easily. I can remember personalities of old people like The Director General and Thomas A Stobie fairly well since I had no avatar to base anything on.

Anyway, did you call me Apoc because you remember other people calling me that or was it just something that made sense?

Yet more interesting are your musings on the role of the visual symbol in memory. I suppose people's avatars change often, unlike a name which is a visual symbol but is fixed and static. I imagine you don't remember be because I never posted that much on off-topic. And have been generally random in my postings for the past couple of years.

Anyway, in answer to your query, um.. both. Now that I think about it, you seem familiar, but I think it just made sense at the time. Apoc -> Apocalypse... seems natural.

I'm not that much of an off-topic person. Up until a year ago I had been lurking in various forums though, even in the Civ2 ones.

never seen you before, even in the civ2 forums

[Graag]

Apoc, I've been largely inactive the past year or two, so you are forgiven your ignorance of my good self.

H Tower, thanks for the input. Always good to know someone doesn't know you.

Something stirs my memory but I don't think we discussed anything.
Good to se ya back

[Dis]

the screen name seems familiar. But I know nothing about you.

[Eli]

I remember your Avatar. Though i'm not sure it was you who was using it.

[Rasbelin]

Actually I remember Graag. I think the last time I saw you was in the OTF. At least I remember your funky monkey avatar.

Anyway, merry Christmas to you.

[Bas]

I remember the name, but that's about it... Welcome back, anyway.

[Stefu]

I know you, I know you! You're that one guy... named Graag... um.

[Datajack Franit]
