Hello to all who may or may not know my name to mean anything at all.
I was thinking about this game and the forums again recently so wanted to stop in and say hello.
My husband and I met because of this game, and so I feel eternally grateful to it even if I no longer play and I am no longer around.
I look around and I see few names I recognise. It also seems to be very quiet.
When I first started playing this game in 2005 the forums was the place to be.
We were stupid and fun and mean and challenging to each other, but we were a good community of idiots and it was truly a wonderful place to pass the time.
Shout outs to Omega whom are still a strong force as far as I can see. As much as they were an alliance I loved to hate, they are also close to my heart due to the fact I took part in their origin story with EnterTheLion and Diamond Dust.
I can't believe it has been 11 year since the game started.
I was 20 when I started playing and now I am an old age pensioner at 31. And it is still alive.
If nothing else, this place is a great time capsule for us old school players to look back on. The threads I spent so much of my early 20's being part of. The hours of chatting, posting and talking about other characters (or making up back-stories).
This place is very special to me and those who have made an impact on my life, even though I have never met them, are to be thanked for that.
Keep on keeping on SGW community. In a time when I felt I had nothing, this was everything to me.

I remember you not sure you will remember me though lol.
11 years is an impressive length for any game to survive!
I'm also interested to see if you and your husband were Enemies or Allies

We were never enemies actually. I found out about it through buck actually who would go on about how much of a good guy he was.Colonel Jack Oneill wrote:Great Read , Pretty cool you met your Husband here. Where you enemies at first or allies

We always had similar ethics when it came to the game. I guess that also translated to how we were as people in real life too.
I organised a GW meet up for Australia players back in 2007 and he flew in from another state to attend. He says he liked me before we actually met, but I wasn't interested in him at all before I met him in person. Funny how life can take you by surprise like that.
Anyway,, 5 years of marriage later...geeks to the end.
The Deity was famous for an alliance called Ancient Brethren (lame!)(don't tell him I said that). I was famous for pissing people off and basically living on the forums or in the chat room. Is that still around?

Re: So glad I found you
Nuto and Deity, you always have been the gatewars poster couple. It's always a happy day on these forums when you drop by. No kids in the mix yet?
Like the others say, a lot has changed in gatewars, and activity is at an all time low. To those of us who have played as long as we have, the game has definitely impacted our lives. I've been lucky enough to make some good friends and met some of them in real life too.

Re: So glad I found you
good to see you again Nuto, also good to see the SGW fairytale is still going strong.
Most SGW talking these days is done via skype, spamming and forums pretty much a thing of the past.. I remember the AB forums being one of the best visually.
Shame SGW conventions never seem to occur anymore either, the pics and stories from those lucky to attend were great to see.

Re: So glad I found you
I remember your name very well. Like you, this game made a drastic impact on my life during a time in which I had little else.
First she was like...
I talk in this color when corporations pay their fair share of taxes and don't evade US taxes by stashing profits overseas.
I talk in this color when the wealthiest top 1/10th of 1% don't own 50% of the nation's wealth.
I talk in this color when the wealthy, influential elites of this country don't have unbalanced influence over the economy, media, and government - allowing to regularly further their own interests.
I talk in this color when the US joins every other industrialized nation on Earth and guarantees healthcare for all people.
I talk in this color when 98% of all new income doesn't go into the hands of the wealthiest top 1%.
Then she was all like...Support wrote:Thank you, Bernie.
Then they were all...Support wrote:Damn it Bernie.
Mercury Rising wrote:Damn it Bernie!
Affirmation wrote:Damn it Bernie...
