I would define as geek anyone who cares enough about pixels to be online several hours a day to protect those pixels and try make more of them. :lol: And I absolutely include myself in that number.

Don't forget - there is a big difference between a geek and a nerd. That's what your thinking of.

majority of the guys are forum regulars and long time players but fresh faces can contribute sometimes too.

He's right a lot of threads get ignored around here

I'm only new but I make a few posts per day, not enough to be noticed, although I got a fair bit of notice for my post about miners and lifers.

I think it might be easier for new forum members to start posting on the forum if there was a section that was like Introduce Yourself or something to that effect where new forum members know they will get a hey, hello etc response post and not just be ignored which would give them more confidence posting next time.

Because I care for look always have best clothes etc...I use this game to try to moderate me from the excentric arrogant self admiration of my style :-D ...argh...I'm Goa'uld so I extend it here!! :lol: :lol:
Apart from that excentricity and love for artificial things and artificial women I'm quite a good person :)
