Hi everybody

[neoelasticman]

Some of you may recognize me, or not. I've been posting in the comments for a while and just decided I should join the forums as well. A little bit about me:
My name is Paul, I am in my last year of college studying to be an Electrical Engineer, and my favorite hobby, even more fun to me than playing games, is making them. I haven't distributed any, though.Oh well, once again hello.

[Tollwutig]

Welcome to the forums.

Pay no attention to KingNintendoid when he says hello. Obey the writ of he who is GamePolitics in his Comments Policy (http://gamepolitics.com/comments-policy/) specifically the bit about harassing, etc as that bit applies here as well. Also we try not to derail threads here and do not appreciate intentional derailing.


If you feel the need to vent about something we have a Tirade thread in the Off Topic Forum. We also have a [Chat] thread there for when people just want to post something inane. (please note inane, not incomprehensible) While there are discussion occurring in all forums the Off-Topic Forum is where most of our traffic as we can't talk about Games and Politics all of the time.

The mods are pretty easy going and generally will ask somewhat politely for you to correct behavior. We do use the sacred BanHammer on rare occasion.

Welcome to GP. You're ours now. Here's what you can expect.

You'll stay for a while, see a few threads, laugh a bit, and see a few odd things. You'll bookmark the place for further amusement. This is where it all begins.

Before too long, you'll find yourself checking on GP in increased frequencies. First it'll happen occasionally during the week. Then once every day or so. Then more frequently. You'll find yourself checking on it twice a day. Three times. Once per hour. Before you know it, you'll be browsing it for hours at a time.

Slowly, your life will take a back-seat to GP. You'll find yourself forgetting to call people. You'll be late for work because you'll be reading legendary threads. Slowly, your life will decline into a mindless chaos.

As GP and /OT/ slowly consume your mind, your humor will be replaced with our humor. You'll become glued to GP. It'll be the only place you feel accepted. And then, you'll start accepting the weirder conventions. You'll find yourself fapping to all sorts of odd things you used to find disgusting. But now it'll all be commonplace for you, as a normal part of your life. Your personality.

And then, someday down the road, you'll realize what has happened to you. Your loved ones will have left you. You'll be alone. Unemployed. Struggling to survive. And worst of all, you'll be hooked. You won't be able to fight it, because we will be all you know, and all you remember. You'll slowly dissolve into madness, or mindless stupidity. Whichever comes first. And then, one day, you will snap, and all remains of your former self will be crushed under our weight.

Welcome, my friend. Welcome, my brother.

Welcome to your new home.

Welcome to GP.

(I beat King Nintentoid to it :P)

[Theory?]

What exactly is your focus in electrical engineering. I'm an audio engineer and I want to get my masters in electrical engineering to make audio gear.

..now you are stealing my copypasta too?

[voodooKobra]

Yeah, I had to do that at least once. Maybe you should follow your copypasta's advice and be on more frequently :P

He's in a different time zone than you. Evening surfing time in the states is sleep time here in europe.

I was joking dude.

Actually it's my last year of undergrad college so for now I'm a generic EE. I do hope to do something in robotics or security, though, if I can't get my hands on a job as a game developer.
