Hey everybody. It's been a while, hasn't it? I decided to come visit again, for a while at least.

Well... hmmm... it's been since October... Yogurt was demoted in November while Min became an admin... TF closed down for about a month before opening again in December... DDL became mod... then there was the Survivor Game that didn't last very long in January... and lately raditz got himself banned.
Pretty much it as far as I can remember.

I see. A friend of mine created his own forums for a couple of the guys at school to just talk about videogames and he made me a Mod there, so it was kinda busy for a while. Things have slowed almost to a dead crawl, so I was browsing the Fan Sites forum on TF.N, and I decided to give this place a loog to see if anyone was here.
And how does raditz get himself banned?

He hacked into my account and banned DDL. We've been going fairly steady since mid-December, still a couple of dead points, but it's all good. Where's your friend's forum at?

Ouch, that's definitely a ban-worthy action. Every time I've come back, it seems to be during those dead points. And my buddy's forum is also here at Proboards.

Yeah, he's banned for a bit... probably why it's quiet right now. Is it just me or is TF.n getting really boring?

Well, the YJCC was entertaining for awhile after SWC slowed down... but now it's getting old... the same old banner, but that Photoshop This Picture! Thread is hilarious.

You think so? I like to spend most of my time in the JCC, although after a while on there it does get boring. Then I go to the Games Forum. EDIT: Yeah, that thread is awesome. Obi-Zahn Kenobi made me my own O RLY? picture:

I've been to the games forum once or twice... but ever since school started I haven't had much time for games. Still haven't played Star Wars Battlefront 2, but I did get 'The Movies'. Entertaining for a while... I made a rip-off of Titanic set during WWII.
I think they need something that will liven up everything... something big... like one of those Big Brother Games they used to host.

I've played Battlefront 2 once. It's decent, but it has big flaws. Apparently it's very glitchy, and some of the ships are inaccurate and stuff. My main gripe is that I absolutely hate the ability to be heroes and Jedi. Regular heroes would be okay, as they're essentially souped-up troopers, but the Jedi are so over-powered it's not even funny. The first Battlefront was about being an expendable trooper. You aren't a hero. You can't kill hundreds of enemies at once. Everyone in Battlefront 2 just wants to be the Jedi so they can dominate everyone else like in every other Star Wars game. Also, you can't be every trooper at the start of a match. Some of them only become available as the match goes on, and how many kills you get. Plus, there is less vehicle combat and there aren't any air vehicles on any ground maps except for the LAAT, in probably one level. And space battles are not all that great. In fact, they aren't great at all.

Have you played any of the custom maps made for the Original Battlefront? There's a bunch of them here if you haven't. Some are pretty damn good.

I actually don't own either Battlefront . In fact, I don't own an Xbox or a PS2, either.

True, but I like the original. My friend and I are very good at making amazing comebacks, like us two against about 60 enemies. Not all at once, though.

Ah yeah, he's lots of fun. But I like his shotgun thing. It's fun to boost all the way over to an enemy, and then blast him at point-blank.
But anyway, what's this book about. What's all this about "Love in the Air"?

I couldn't think of a better title and it's near Valentine's Day, so I thought of something Valentine's Day related... love is not actually in the air... or atleast not in Alabama.
