Hey all

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

Hey all

Post by Blacksword » Wed Feb 23, 2005 6:33 am

After stressing over work today, I was needing to kill some time before going to sleep and I felt the need to take care of some loose ends. Wrote some e-mails to people I hadn't spoken to in ages and then I found myself wondering how Transfans was doing. I've missed this place for a while, but the last six months have been really busy (I'm hardly ever home these days, let alone on-line for any appreciable time) and lingering guilt over the my undone G2 reviews kept me from bothering to look up the site (though I was on my way to finishing up a bundle of four reviews back in the fall before a virus ate my entire hardrive, windows and all... except for the anti-virus software ironically enough).

Last time I tried coming back to the site I made the mistake of committing to doing those reviews. I simply don't have the time to handle anything other than my university courses and work, but I would like to post again. Me being me, I guess I feel I should ask the blessing of the board (well the regulars and site team anyway) before just dropping back in after falling through on my commitment for a second or third time. While on one hand it's just a board, but I do feel like more than a bit of a dick for dropping the ball for a fine bunch of people and dropping out of sight with no explanation a second time in a row.

Hey to all me old mates Compy, Impy, Best First, Spidey, Karl, Legion and Pred (and anyone else I used to regualrly talk to... a lot's gone on in the last few months so it'll be a while before all this stuff starts coming back) .

It's Blackie! :) YAAY! I'm sure the mods will look the other way, what are a few reviews when you can get Blackie? I just hope you'll stay a bit longer this time, and I wish you welcome back.

Now then, {checks blackie's sig} that aint right, it's got your name wrong. You can use this instead if you'd like.

Stop talking nonsense John! We've missed you in these parts! Don't let a little thing like that stop you from showing your face in these hallowed halls.

Silly boy. ;)
