    Hello everybody.

    Don't know how many of you will remember me, but I was a regular around this forum for a while. Y'know, before I disappeared into the sunset as a lot of people seem to have. ;)

    Inexplicably for the last few weeks, I've been getting the itch to re-install ToEE and swing back around the Circle to see what has changed. Yesterday, I finally took the plunge. And I have to say, I'm really impressed.

    I've been looking through change logs, updates, the old threads discussing potential improvements, and I am absolutely blown away by what has changed in the 2 years :)o_O: sheesh) since I was last here.

    It's comforting to know that a few of the old hats I remember from my time here (Gaear, Ted, to name a couple) are still active modders, and have done some insanely incredible things here.

    I would like to sincerely thank everyone for all of their hard work here. I've always spoken fondly about this community, talked about how hard-working and dedicated the members were, and it's also comforting to know that, despite how much time has passed, those words are likely truer today than they were when I first started saying them. :)

    Welcome back SD!! You are very remembered! I shall update my "What Ever Happened to" sticky :) Ted just recently came back, after being an indentured servant to "the Man" for a while. It is good to see some old hats returning.

    It is nice to be remembered! That thread is a Sticky in "General Discussion" section. thanks to the Big G-man!I try to keep it fairly well updated, and anyone can add to it, and of course Moderators (or at least Gaear) can also update it.

    Welcome back XGP! I usually only put people on my "What Ever Happenned To" list if they have over 150 or so posts, but we appreciate all who come and post, ask, discuss, mod and help, regardless of their amount of chattiness.

    It is good to have you both back!

    You could think about it this way. You're one of the LONG-TIME members, so you missing a year is like a newb being gone for a week. :p

    Oh I noticed, Sirchet. It is just that dang Mountain Troll Charisma thing....


    J/K of course!

    I, too, was absent for much of the same time you were out and did not update that Sticky. I have to actually go in and search members and sort by number of posts nad update it. It doesn't happen automatically. :)

    I don't he means that in a "gay" way, more like in a "prison" way.
