Yeah, but I'm pretty sure TNL has always been about in-jokes and cliches.Quote:

If this were an MMO I'd be petitioning for new content pls.

If this were an MMO, I'd tell you to STFU, quit the game, and give me your gold and items.Quote:

TNL outgrew games like two years ago. Seriously, I'm almost embarassed when I post in gaming discussion now. I start a thread and it gets 6 replies, two of which are Joust saying the game sucks. It's like everyone's looking at me funny for posting about that stuff. TNL should just drop the pretence and transition into an argument/funny link/sports, movies, music & political discussion site.
i'd say mars has a point, but i just dont care that much, i blame it one the retardedness of the wow invasion, but it was probably before that.
besides, its kind of hard to talk about games right now, there really isnt much new out, maybethings will pick up around september or something.
I still chuckle every time I see ninjas' sig. TNL is both informative AND fun, it's how high school science classes should have been.
That's right, I wish I could have talked about bullshit and said 'fuck' a lot in high school science classes, I didn't need all of that "information" or whatever it's called.
But...I still play video games.
TNL's really slowed down in the last year or so though.
You know, I've been around this site a long time, mostly as a lurker. I really see no difference. Product is bad right now, give it a few months.

Yeah really, if you want to wax poetic about games go to Got-Next. People still talk about games on TNL, and the people on the forums are still mostly gamers (once if not currently). Sure there's a lot of stupid in-jokes, but that goes for every community that keeps enough regular posters. Yeah, we argue and talk shit but that's all frontin' and you know it. I don't hate Chao, Finch, Scourge, or even IronPlant. There are times they've been right and I've been wrong. Naturally, I don't admit it.
The bottom line is I like this place. I like most of the people on it, most of you are fairly intelligent and I've learned a lot since I started posting here. Not just about games either. So, just this once, let the circle jerk commence. I love you TNL.

One of my friends randomly downloaded the Corey v. Corey album over aim one day and I quickly told them "Hey! I internet know all of them!"
And as soon as I finished saying that I realized that I am a giant TNL faggot.
are you saying you are gay for TNL, or that you are a worse person for posting on TNL too much?
becuase if it is the second, you can go fuck yourself.
I think I mention Josh whenever that Schwarzenegger picture pops up.
I remember. He showed a picture of you with a bowl of penises or something. People didn't think it was funny so he changed it to a picture of...opaopa or whatever his name was and said "now we're making fun of this guy."Quote:

Okay, Jeremy ruined it.
Wow...
It only took him 8 minutes.
:(
I was aiming for 5.
But your aim is off because ur blind lolololllo
I see what you did there.
Jemery can't lololool

That construction guy's arms are way too skinny for pro wrestling.
But he does have a hard hat.
He was strung out on a shitload of drugs at the time. Ninjas, that Bad Trader stuff is so last week.Quote:

I've no hate for anyone here. That includes Yoshi.
This is probably as good of a thread I'll ever get to ask this, but who's ass is in your avatar?Quote:

Everyone is just waiting for GameGo to resurface so they can get their money back.
I still play games. I always will.
I agree, at least about the Mortal Kombat and your mom jokes, and I like your mom jokes. I don't agree about the 1-up manship, as they've all become so universally lame that it's impossible to determine any sort of relative quality.Quote:

The RIAA will also be PM'ing you. Courtesy of Josh.Quote:

But back on topic, TNL has been boring as of late, but that's understandable cause lot's of people had finals for school and now it's summertime. When it gets cold and everyone is stuck in their dorms, it will pick up again. I don't mind the circle jerks/played out jokes so much, although the mom jokes, for the most part, just aren't funny anymore unless used sparingly under good contextual circumstances.
I did and no luck.Quote:

IBTN. Shitty trolls without a shred of intelligence, like Supermario, suck, but guys like doc and korian are mother fucking professional trolls, and good at what they do.Quote:

Where did he go? I always enjoyed his wacky Japan stories/pictures.Quote:

TNL is an MMO btw.
Mortal Kombat.
All the changes of names have confused me. I don't know who's who anymore.
Apart from Buttcheeks, which I find more suitable anyway.
What a great forum. :D
They sold me on DC Lodoss War when I would've passed it over. That alone was worth the $7.Quote:

And because we're on the verge of WWIII and there's probably better things to spend our time on IRL.Quote:

Plus, there aren't many surprises left this gen, no more interesting announcements until TGS '06 or 2007. This summer has also seen the worst gaming drought in the past 5 years. And let's not forget how demoralized we all felt upon realizing that you weren't in fact an aspiring fchan guy like the rest of us. What a Yentl moment that was.Quote:
