Uhm .... Spacey. This has already been (sort of) done .... Take a look HERE!!! (http://80sxchange.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=10901) :D

But you're right, this might be a good time to revive this :thumb:

Now if I'm not mistaking (which I am all the time) the mighty admin will probably merge this thread :p

nah....that was what do you look at first, this is what do you visit forum-wide, so I'll leave this one be. As for me, I go through at least 95-97% of the posts that come through, so I pretty much look at every post that gets into this place to make sure things are running smoothly and of course to get my post on :lol::p

I try to visit all of them. But at different times. Some days, I may be really into the music forums, others, I just play the games and that is it. I always check out the ML, and the Welcome.

I try to keep all over the board....when a newbie posts their memories, sometimes it will spark a new one that I had forgotten about, and then I get all excited!:D

Well looks like yet another Smurfy fluck up .... I'll just add this to the rest (that pile's getting bigger by the minute :D)

OK Spacey, I'll play along ..... gimme just a min :p

OK ready to play :p

Let's see .... I visit these forums on a daily basis;
Introduce yourself, 80s Styles & cultures, 80s Movies and current reviews, 80s Games & ML .... When I have time or feel like it I check out almost everything else, except for a few of the music forums :)

You wanna know why ??? I'll tell ya why ..... coz it's frickin' fun that's why :p
Oh and because some admin allowed me acces to this board (I'm sure he has regretted it tons of times :dammit: )

The forums I visit the most are the music forums and the 80's related forums. I usually just check the Daily Topics first to find threads to post to.

I check the Daily forums and reads almost all of them. I usually stay clear of the ones that Smurfy started cause they are all fluff forums. :p (too bad he is asleep and won't read this until tomorrow)

Sorry you feel overwhelmed by it! :( There are more games running at once than I thought there would be, that's why I try not to add any when we have around 15 going. Just continue to play the ones you like! That's what we all do. :) And if you think of something fun to play, please start a thread! Everyone so far has come up with awesome games!! :)


I go to Introduce Yourself, Member's Lounge, and Fun N' Games religiously. Sometimes I'll check out Comedy Central and catch up on any jokes I missed and post to some. I check the 80s style, 80s movies, and some of the 80s music topics a couple times a week, to see if there is anything new or anything I think I can add to. I rarely go to the Love Lounge, lately. I spend a lot of time looking up stuff that could be a game, that may be why I spend less time posting...:lol:

I think it is great with all the games. I have not participated in many of them, but I will. You are very good at coming up with new games, ValJ. Some of them are really funny just to read.

I meant to ask: What is the Love Lounge?

ValJ
5-21-02, 09:53 PM
Thanx, Pippi!! By the way, is that a personal picture of you for your avatar? If so, you're a very lovely lady!! :) I'm sure our 80s guys will be all over you in no time!! ;)

The Love Lounge is a place where we give out hugs and smoochies and talk openly about adult topics without fear of offending newbies or scaring young children. :lol: Ask Roem for access, if you're interested. :)

Yes, that is my picture and thank you very much. I will ask Roemello for access, so I can lurk in there. Can I just PM him or will he read the topics here? I am sorry about all my silly questions, but there is so much to learn and even more to read here.

ValJ
5-21-02, 10:35 PM
He'll read this, but he may just skim it. He goes through a lot of posts in one night! ;) So you may want to just send him a PM, tell him you'd like access, and include your birthdate. :)

Those are not silly questions, they are perfectly legitimate! :) If you're ever confused about something, don't hesitate to ask!! Someone will always be willing to help you out! :)

Roemello
5-21-02, 11:28 PM
And help out the Roem has...a few times today ;) Ask all ya like Pip, one of many things I'm here for ;)
