My Ex lurked the other place for years he'd tell me about it and when we lived together I would find myself lurking even after we broke up I still lurked. When the shit hit the fan and I saw pretty much everyone who's posts I enjoyed reading here I made sure when it was time for open sign up I would have an account and finally get to talk to these people.

Yeah lot of familiar faces. I was on the other forum for about 10 years but wasn't particularly well known so I did a reset of my own. Glad to be aboard!

I honestly feel the same, I was familiar with you two and others but was caught off guard when I joined a Gaf Discord and saw I was pretty well recognized. When I was on Gaf I thought I was flying under the radar and felt I was some ghost because I was barely quoted unless I somehow became part of some 3 to 5 page debate. Good times.

I had the same experience. When the sky was falling back on GAF, I suddenly found a Discord invite to the DMC community in my inbox. I was like "who even knows me!?" It was so gratifying just to be remembered and invited, never mind being granted the privilege of day one membership at ResetEra.

I think keeping the same avatar for years helps. Names can be forgettable, but faces become familiar even if users aren't posting that often.

Hey you guys for continuity's sake I will remain an unquotable trash poster

Always down for a cheap, inexplicable necropost or flat attempts at thread flavor

Most seamless transition ever

What is up my bros (this is a gender neutral term as it implies closeness of heart rather than biological brotherhood so I can use it to refer to everyone)

...yeah, I'm glad to see familiar faces too. What's really interesting is seeing the perma-banned users come back to life. There's a few of them I missed after a while (Winterfang from NarutoGAF, if you're reading this, you were really fun to discuss things with and I hope you re-reg here)

Longtime old forum lurker here so nobody knows who I am (except for Doc, maybe?) and that's alright, but it's so great to see people like Cyan, Ishida, More_Badass, Andrew Korenchkin, Jawmuncher, Karsticles, duckroll, Inuhanyou, Brazil, Platy, Memento, shinobi602 and so many others I really admire. It's nice being able to participate and talk to you all.

Apparently I was more known than I thought on GAF, judging from what I've been told on Discord.

I'll always remember you and Satch since we were part of the same batch of juniors!

I didn't post as much in the last few years and I constantly switch up my avatars so I doubt many people really remember me. Gonna try to be more active in communities here.

I'm so glad to see so many of my girls came here. Hopefully one of us can make a GirlEra hangout (though I was always really bad at visiting the community thread on the old forum).

I wonder if Derrick01 will come back?
I hope so, I enjoyed and agreed with some of his takes.

Honestly I got tired of the name "Rash" after having used it for so long. I've had that shitty online username since the days of Quake 2. Twenty years.

Davey Cakes is what I use for playing Jack Box games with friends and it's become my name for Steam, Twitter, Nintendo ID and other things.

Even with 14,000 posts on the other boards I wasn't really a huge presence so I'm all for a name and avatar change for this new community. A fresh start is nice.

Yeah, It's been good to lurk for a little and now having a membership. This is also my first post here on ERA. I wasn't that active before, but had like 2 post a day in my three years anyway lol

Has anyone seen jred2k? I haven't seen him pop up in the wrestling thread. Is there a way to search users?

I'm back.

Got banned at the tail end of 2011 for no reason.
Shiggy still shared my leaks from time to time.

Hi guys. I posted a lot on GAF, but I doubt I was high profile or anything.

It's great to see 90% of people I interacted with here. We even got people like Derrick and Fiction back.

I was there for 10 years and pretty low key, but it was still a place I went to almost every day to check in on the latest news and events. I had my frustrations with the place, but it was a home.

Anyways, I am really glad this place came together so well and so fast. Sometimes change is for the best. Really glad to be here. Thanks
