Forums → The Tavern → Veteran users?

I'd say you need over 19,000 posts to be a veteran user. Just Kidding.

To me it's seems to be anyone with over about 1,000 posts and also have at least silver night rating. Also, maybe you joined at least in sometime in 2009.

When I see users with a really high ranking, like duke/duchess, prince/princes, king/queen, and a really low amount of posts, no merits, and just a ton of comments and ratings I assume they are a spammer and went to a bunch of games and said "stupid", "lame", etc.

(No offense to the people who don't post a lot but actually give quality comments, although I rarely see anything over 5 words long.)

Gefugh. I don't remember switchfoot and fallingup because I only really started venturing to forums after chat was taken down.

Am I right?

The usual reason is that they just want be the user with the most points out of everybody here. I don't understand why being #1 is so special to them.

Awright, lesse here. Oh by the way, feel free to correct me.

* Who were the original moderators? One of these moderators temporarily became an admin-level user. Who was it, and on which continent did they live?

* What was SHOPS and why did it get shut down?

* Do you remember when the Sonny forums first appeared?

* What is the actual function of the red/green dot next to the username on the profile page, and how many times has it been activated/deactivated?

* The AG2 forum code was very messy as it was a hastily thrown-together home-grown bunch of scripts. As a result, the forum tended to lag greatly and was quite unable to do many functions considered ordinary on other boards. Others were removed to preserve performance. How many of these functions can you name?

* How many official armatar artists have been commissioned to draw the normal AP-based armatars?

* When was the first user-based armatars submitted?

* What was the preferred suffix for the wannabe troll who suicided several hundred accounts over the course of several weeks? What is his real pseudonym? Bonus points if you know the url of the board he runs himself.

Te great debate was just that, a great debate. I can't answer the last two.

Spammer and hacker operative prevention service or something. It got shut down when Green and some others took it over, and tried taking care of problems there self. I was one of the mina people against it.

* What is the actual function of the red/green dot next to the username on the profile page, and how many times has it been activated/deactivated?

It told you if the user was active i nthe last 5 minutes. I want to say it was activated at least 2 or 3 times.

* The AG2 forum code was very messy as it was a hastily thrown-together home-grown bunch of scripts. As a result, the forum tended to lag greatly and was quite unable to do many functions considered ordinary on other boards. Others were removed to preserve performance. How many of these functions can you name?

there was the last active feature at the bottom of the community page, I assume you only want forum functions, so thats all.

* What was the preferred suffix for the wannabe troll who suicided several hundred accounts over the course of several weeks? What is his real pseudonym? Bonus points if you know the url of the board he runs himself.

420/priest......I know him off a different site, don't know what his name is here though. I'll throw antiwhale out there just for the heck of it.

* (A personal favourite as it's a very difficult question but contains a special piece of forum history): What is the last known thread in which John, Carlie, and DanMcNeely posted all on the same page? Based on this event, what major feature of the forum was created? How many incarnations of this feature has appeared? What happened to the last one?

I'll say the last active feature. And two incarnations.

* Why is Carlie inactive on the forums? Who has effectively taken her place with an official staff position at the AG office?

She got married to john. And not cormyn, he's working under someone, and there is Larry, I can't remeber the last guys name, so I'll say larry.

* (For those who really pay attention, I'm not 100% sure I know the answer to this. However it's an extremely important question as this has been the single biggest key to AG's burgeoning economic success): what was the first game the AG devs ported to a phone platform?

headgehog launch?

(I wanted to say shift but admitadly I looked at freaks answer for this one so I had to say something else)




So there it is. Strop, wanna leave an answer on my profile on how mnay I got right?

If you actually knew it, you'd know his site has been down for months.

I'm pretty sure 420 was who he was refering to there.

420/priest was the only decent troll we never had around here

but he was by real standards

There used to be one additional way to gain armor points. What was it, how many points did it yield, and why was it removed?

I enjoyed him becuase he made people mad, but he was by real standards not a good troll.

I thought is was submitting a game and it was worth 2500 points.

thats still here....and it's worth 25 points.
