OLD MEMBERS - WHERE ARE YOU?

sunshinegold · Sun 12/12/2004 03:50:25

I find lately that most of the post in the 'HINTS' forum are guests?

Where are the members of months ago, which I call the 'old members'? You used to depend on them to be able to answer you in the 'hints' forum because they had already played the games and now I don't see them or very few !!!!

I miss the 'old pros'

They're still here.. They just ask that you not bother them anymore and you please leave the premises.

Thank you.

(Please don't post a topic in all caps, it's very annoying and usually ends in lockage.)

Everything goes in cycles. You'll generally find that a lot of the old members, as you call it, are busier this time of year, and haven't played many of the games that have been comming out. I guess the only thing to do is wait it out, or if you've waited days upon days to progress in a game, contact the author of said game.

I some cases I played the game and finished it but I just forgot how I solved it.

First I apologize the the 'caps' I do not usually do this.

As for your comment about 'They're still here.. They just ask that you not bother them anymore and you please leave the premises' just tell me why YOU have joined the forum if not to help or get help from other members.

This forum is for the development of games using ags, hints was most likely an afterthought.

Heh, I consider myself a faily old member, but I don't think I've been to the Hints forum more than about 3 times before. I don't know, I usually hang out in General Discussion or the Critics lounge. I guess I havn't played most of the games, and if I need hints for one, there is usually a walkthough somewhere, or there are plenty of hints in the games thread.

WE'RE ALL HIDING IN THE GARDEN!

Shh. Don't tell them.

Darth Mandarb · Mon 13/12/2004 04:53:48

We have a hints forum ?? ... hmm ... I'll be damned.

Goldmund · Mon 13/12/2004 10:41:17

Old members don't frequent it, because when they were Young and AGS was Young there were no Hints forums.
You had to do everything by yourself.
Person asking for hints would be called a pansy back then and fed with very fresh brie. Later on we would ride on the back of that person all the way around the campfire through the howling night.
(Because it was always dark and the Earth knew no dawn back then, when AGS was DOS-based.)

Goldmund sounds a lot wiser than I thought. Share with us the days of old, Goldmund?

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Thu 23/12/2004 17:40:32

Oh this should be good!

<draws closer to the warmth of the campfire on this cold and yet beautiful starry night, waiting for Goldmund's tale of old>

Count me in on the tales!

Hah. This reminds me of the Saturday Night Live sketch with Adam Sandler and Alec Baldwin at the campfire, where Alec's character tries to seduce Adam's.

Suffice it to say, I have a question for all of you... If you and I went camping, and you woke up the next morning with a condom up your $@%, would you tell anybody?

Rui 'Trovatore' Pires · Fri 24/12/2004 00:51:57

I'd tell my cat.

...

...

...what?

Domino · Fri 24/12/2004 00:53:41

i wouldn't tell unless you rubbed bug repellant all over my chest.

TerranRich · Fri 24/12/2004 00:54:04

Then we CANNOT go camping. Next!
