I might as well pop in and say hey. I have not posted to much in the past 2 years, but I still visit. The forums kind of went to shit really bad recently and I lean further and further, but I can't avoid the place.

I still miss Venturis. And Iori (the original).
Once a part of the Neo, ALWAYS A PART OF THE NEO! ;)

Fran posted on the DC.

Who remember Bobak's "neo-geo.com responds" video where he's mimicing that french video of a guy using his fingers as fighting game characters? I have that on my HD. I have no idea why.

All night games of Kung-Fu Chess.

How about that Brett guy from Michagan who tried to rip me off... posted about his Camero all the time and looked like a pug. Banned twice.

Heh, I don't even have that video anymore. I hosted it on the NG.com website for something like 12 hours and then took it down. When my old HD went down I forgot to backup my video files.

I'd forgot about it.

FilledWithFurySS. After the second time he got banned he made his own anti-Neo-Geo.com website by stealing a bunch of pics from our members' gallery and giving them dumb captions.

That's right, the very first person that he ripped off on these boards was you wasn't it. What did he trade you- it was something like three or four horribly beat up Saturn Games or something like that...

I posted about this back on page 2 or something.

I believe that Panzer Saga was included in the deal, as well as a beat up Saturn, he recieved a homecart system in the trade, and wouldn't stop trying to find a "shell" for it afterwards.

His first step in the wrong direction was that thread called "Who else has a problem with Saturn Gamer" ;)

Everything after that is all n-g.com history.

He came back with a fake account too, but I don't remember what the user name was.

Remember when people made elaborate "I'm leaving the site" threads as though it really made a difference one way or the other?

They're never a good idea, you may very well end up come back.

.

if you mean that i used to post through a dreamcast,
then no

never have

if you mean something else by "on the dc" then,please,fill me in :)

one of the greatest thread i remember was the one i made back in 2001 or so

when shawn was still posting and all that

it was called something along the lines of "your fave 3 members and who do you hate the most"

the intriguing bit is,i created that one in news & rumours and no one complained,no one locked it or moved it to the war room

i'm sure old time members remember it

good times

of course it went to "shit" pretty damn quickly,and i mean shit in a funny way eh

don't bother trying to dig it up with the search function

i deleted most of the threads i had started in 2002 when i,gulp,left the scene???

don't ask

Like it's my fault people are never on AIM at the same time as me anymore? :smirk:

I actually won money off that because this handle didn't get deleted at the time. Shawn's indifference to the board finally payed off. :D This thread's giving me flashbacks to BrymLoo's Farewell Parts I through XVII.

Don't know if I'd call mine a good example of elaborate, I tried but BrymLoo turned this sort of stuff into poetry.

I just remember someone made that excuse for the

reason

you typed

like this. It inspired a couple attempts at a DC post 'round here. Just good memories.

Oh, I competely agree with you. The only reason you came up is because I noticed you were posting earlier and looked at your "recent post history" which still included your farewell thread (not bad, it was a solid block of time).

Yeah the person losing the money and I agreed this was hiatus enough, and frankly the thread topic is true, a lot of the older members I did enjoy chatting with ARE coming back so I have no real reason to stay away.

Shame S-C shutting down and the board hack happened so close to it though.

But man my second or third day back here and I'm already talking about Conan the Barbarian and Fatal Fury like it was pre-ON merger, awesome. :D

I'm glad Rasa's back personally. The man knows his Neo shit, has hooked me up with a lot of great SNK mp3s over AIM. If we could just get Chimp and FTL to leave, this place would be better than ever.

As you may be able to see from my user info, I've been around since 2K but I haven't been active in these forums in a long while, probably dating back to when the ON merger occurred and I made the exodus with a lot of them. There was a lot of drama at the site back then too, and I really didn't have the patience for it at the time. Kept buying Neo carts through NCS, all the way up to KOF 2K3 (home cart count-26), kept my eye on Neo-Geo.com for the news.

I tooled around on ON boards for a good while but really grew kinda tired of the fighting game scene after a year or two. Kept buying them, but my heart wasn't in it. Then GamingFM came along and I got more involved with that, as well as other non gaming interests on the web.

I've always lurked this site to stay up on the Neo scene. I've always felt that this site was the #1 Neo info source, and even though I haven't posted anything (except for a handful of posts recently) I've stayed abreast of things here.

So I guess I'm another 'old member' coming back. Don't know how long I'll be active, but this is still a great website for active members and lurkers alike. Good to be back!

My brother posts at GamingFM as "Dan's Bro". He's the one who whined for a ROTD soundtrack purchase.




and yes Rasa is back, great.

Ah, that would explain the name then, wouldn't it?:)

I'm grateful for his presence there, actually. He's pro-SNK, and that goes a long way in my book. Since I'm one of the site's owners and administrators, that actually means something over there:D

Joke

A man wrote a child support check and asked his 18 years old daughter to take it to her mother. But he would like his daughter to report it back to him about her mother's facial expression when she found out that was the final check she was going to receive. Shortly after the daughter returned, and sheepishly she said, "Mother wants to know the expression on your face when you were told that I ain't your daughter".
