Gamesradar UK forum closure
Wow. When I initially had the idea for Waves, I didn’t think one of my first posts would be about the demise of the Gamesradar UK forum.
While it seems a waste to destroy the community, undo all the hard work people have put into the place and erase all that history from the internet, to be honest I feel that for the people who run the Gamesradar main site, it was the best thing to do. I saw this closure coming two years ago, although I was sure it would happen within weeks or months, not years.
Gamesradar Forumite Awards 2005
This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. I did quite well in them Forumite Award thingies last night, even though I had no interest in them at all. 2 Golds and 2 Bronzes for me, and as a whole RF kicked bottom with 4 Golds, 4 Silvers, 6 Bronzes (and a shed-load of special…
Oh I don’t know
This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. I really want a cigarette, the anti-depressants are kicking in and making me feel funny, it's so bloody hot, Gamesradar is so bloody slow and I'm a bit hungry.
Random Fury vs XBM
This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. Random Fury is playing a few games of Halo 2 against XBM (yes, the Xbox magazine) on Wednesday, I'm so chuffed. We're even getting a page in the mag, and I've got a little Q&A thing to do. The team is me, Ironing, melatonin and KjGarly, and…
Moderator mishaps
This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. I felt really bad all today. I accidently deleted an important topic over on Gamesradar. It made me reflect on alot of things, responsibility, preservation, trust, friendship, all kinds of odd things. I even considered handing in my shiny virtual badge because of it. In the end…
Maybe I should see a psychiatrist
This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. We lost our internet connection yesterday. I never realised how much of a boredom reducer it was. Done all your tasks for the day? Mum hogging the TV? Play Halo 2 on Live! Browse Gamesradar! Write some blog! "You don't know what you got 'til it's gone"…
I hate the Jobcentre
This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. I finished the DMC2 review this afternoon, it rocks. There was a slight dispute over the score, but all is good. I went and signed on, got given a couple of jobs to apply for, great. Good luck me. I hate the Jobcentre. There's always a gang…
Dilemma
This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. I took a few games into GAME today and got Advance Guardian Heroes and Dead or Alive Ultimate. Not sure whether I want to go play them now or sit here until I've watched Smallville, on at 9. Oh, what a pickle. Currently listening to: Sophie Ellis…
First entry!
This was originally posted in the Bloggers section on the now-defunct Poopgang forum. So... my blog. Here it is. I've wanted to start one for so long, yet never had the courage to spill my guts onto a computer screen in such a permanent, public display of privacy. How about a bit of background? Hmm, I'm sure we'll get there…
