Identity Crisis

Gaseous_Baboon · Jan 25th, 2003, 01:04 AM

I remember a time I was hooked to forums. PS2 Fantasy forums in particular. This was a time long ago, over a year in fact. The main topics of discussion were Metal Gear Solid 2, and everyone (this Baboon included) were insane over the game. This was a time when I logged onto my dad's laptop for my forum kicks. Like all things, this faded away... and I soon had completely withdrawn from the land of Ps2 Fantasy; presumably forever.
Now, over a year later, I sit here at my own computer and feel like a vastly different person. No longer am I the New Kid with no friends and nothing but video games and the internet to keep me from withdrawig into depression. Now I'm preparing to graduate high school, and soon will be going off to college. I now have a group of friends and have found a place in this life. I still love video games though, and I still love the internet.
And so, I sat here tonight surfing like nobody's business. After my less insomniac friends had logged off and I had exhausted all interesting video game news, I racked my mind for some site to visit. For some fateful reason, my fingers typed the URL without my even knowing it... PS Fantasy. What a wave of nostalgia I felt! I immediately knew I had to try to reenter the forums... My name didn't exist anymore, but I was able to create it again. And, just like that, I was back.
Now I see posts on Vice City and Xenosaga instead of Metal Gear Solid and Final Fantasy X. But I recognize some of the old names, and I feel this strange coming home feeling. This is my first post. When it is over, I will undoubtedly be known as "That sad little man who wrote the long post about how he's in love with the forum". I assure you, the rest of my posts will be irrelevant and inane. This time, I'm here to stay. (Here I am tempted to say something like "The Baboon is back", but then sanity regains its flimsy grip on my tired mind. So I'm not gonna say it.) With that said... howdy folks. What's up?

Hey there, I remember you, how are you man? If I am not mistaken, I remember you telling me that you will be making movies in the future (Correct me if I am wrong). Its good to see you back, seriously. Oh by the way Metal Gear Solid 3 will be shown (or atleast be talked) in the coming E3, which is going to take place in May 2003.

Gaseous_Baboon · Jan 25th, 2003, 01:47 AM

Why yes, Makg, that was indeed me. How touching that someone remembers the ol' flatulant primate!

Beretta55 · Jan 25th, 2003, 02:12 AM

Ditto, welcome back.

Harry · Jan 25th, 2003, 07:58 AM

Welcome back, and thanks for your love for these forums. I perfectly remember you. Many members you knew changed their names, and your name is no longer in the database because we had to change forum software in January, and everybody had to register again.

So, thanks again for visiting us, and enjoy these little forums once again!

P.s. Your post made me think it's a miracle Ps2Fantasy is still here!

Rei · Jan 25th, 2003, 08:00 AM

Hi there! I remember you too! It's nice to see you around after all this time... Welcome back!

dan da man · Jan 25th, 2003, 08:29 AM

Daniel Legge · Jan 25th, 2003, 08:44 AM

Suzuki_Fanboy · Jan 25th, 2003, 10:19 AM

Lo' Gaseous_Baboon. I don't remember you either, but welcome back.

Uchiha Sasuke · Jan 25th, 2003, 01:54 PM

Yo gaseous i remeber you really well.We had some good times back in the day,all those silly post we came up with.

Gaseous_Baboon · Jan 25th, 2003, 02:42 PM

They like me, they really like me! Harry, its no wonder that PS2fantasy still thrives. Just look at all these loyal forumites! Were I to somewhere else and announce in a long long and somewhat gay sounding post that he used to love this place and has returned, they would probably taunt me and call me cruel names! "There goes the gay sounding long long posting guy!" they would say as I logged on. You guys are the best. C'mon now. Group hug! Hey, why are you backing away from me slowly?!

DSgamer · Jan 25th, 2003, 03:34 PM

dude, were backing away because we dont like group hugs

jkjk

its good to c feel welcome

Gadzoox · Jan 25th, 2003, 04:19 PM

Hooray for love! *joins in the group hug* hee!

Welcome home! Hopefully it will be just as good, if not better than you remembered it!

Daniel Legge · Jan 25th, 2003, 05:40 PM

hey Gaseous_Baboon i didnt know u before but i like you already. Its nice you came back. Ill jion the group hug.

ssjtrunks13 · Jan 25th, 2003, 06:30 PM

MAybe it's my imagination, but I could have sworn I saw the name before, I guess not though. Welcome back and I hope you have a nice time with these RPG stat like thingy's!

The former you sounded like myself, I really should turn my life around and play less video games and do more gaems. But I can't seem to do it and my parents told me thewy'll be nagry at me if I don't graduate this year. I'm really scared now because I have no idea if I'm going to graduate this year.

If you'd like to talk you can always PM me if you like.
