D2 Resurrected, D4, no one here, what in the burning hells?!
Well, here is a moment of zen for any who happens upon it.
Neither games are really accessible to consumers yet, so there's that. But yeah, this site subsisted for years with no news or new game before D3 and had daily new posts and threads, so I see no reason for that to be the sole limiting factor here. Tbh it's probably because social media is more visible and accessible to people.
Imo fansites separated from RL identities and greater socially connected accounts and contexts were an amazing and freeing thing for many, and I think they were good mixing areas for people who would never normally talk to be excited about something. Social media brings in the context of your RL friends, families, and other connections in a way that prevents you from reinventing yourself, or fosters connections that prevent people from really getting to know good intention strangers.
It always throws me for a loop when I start reading a comic and forget that some artists--especially outside the US--organize their frames right-to-left instead of left-to-right. And then my whole life is ruined and I have to post it on some forum somewhere.
Yeah, I was going to say, the teeth in your mouth develop with the genetic expectation of saliva. Constant dry mouth can't be good for them.
Regardless...
I just finished watching the season finale of The Walking Dead, and I can't WAIT until season three! It ended with a (highlight the following text for spoilers) katana-wielding ninja zombie slayer and a glimpse of some kind of compound -- reminds me of The Passage -- and I can't wait to see how the group sees Rick's rise to a dominance/leader duality position. Definitely saw that coming after the "Voice of Reason" -- Dale -- was killed after fighting for the democracy of the old world.
Anyway, still waiting on my PC -- fairly certain I'll have it by next week. So stoked!
I've been saying 2012 since the announcement purely on a hunch. My irrational guess and obstinate dedication have paid off! Huzzah. (Search the forums, you'll find me saying this back for some years.)
It took a few moments to realize who you were.
Also, I said the right quarter though!
Huzzah to we brave few that were right! Lol.
Sometimes you just need a "fresh" start, if you know what I mean I tend to need a lot of them! And congrats! I think I was off on the quarter--I believe I'd been saying January-ish of 2012.

Well, good to see ya again. o/
XD
I actually went through a D3 phase really hard over the last week, but I get to the endgame and do that for a few days and then...meh.
What happened to your post count?

Oh well.
Hi fren
/wave 10char
Forums kind of faded out of vogue when social media and disc and stuff all became much more universal. I still like that it's separate.

Now that I've got that out of my system, back to lurking.
