We've gotten a lot of new users...

Post by Kizyr »

I just want to welcome en masse all the new users here.

Right before the re-launch of the 10-year edition of LunarNET, the boards were slowing down, particularly in terms of new folks joining up. I mean, 90% of our new registers were spambots, then 95%, then 99.9%. So, I'm happy to see more folks joining the boards, and what looks like plenty more interest in the site itself. (It's also generating some new content for us to add, many thanks to some users.)

I'm wondering, for some of y'all that've joined up in just the past month, did you find the forums just after the re-launch? Or were you lurking before, and just decided to join up now? (Or, did you join before, and I accidentally deleted your account?) Just out of curiousity. KF

Well then, welcome all the new users! I think I will enjoy having something to eat again... I mean, yeah, eat. *munches on Ozone*

I will admit that I have been a lurker here since the beginning! LOL. I THINK I did once, long ago, sign up to the forums, put never really posted anything. I guess since Ive been on a "uploading video" kick lately, it made me get all sentimental for all things Lunar again...

I've been around since the old Althena's Court Online message boards, but really havn't been active. You've seen me on and off throughout the years. I blame online mmorpgs. I don't think that's going to change completely, but now that I am a part of a philly cosplay group, anime and games are going to be a bigger part of my life so you might see me dwelling around here a bit more often =]

I'm so glad i chose being a stoner over playing games like WoW and FFXI. Humorously, i compare my friends on both ends of the spectrum and the WoWzers (am i original with this?) are the ones that need to get their priorities straight the most.

WoW is definitely something that I'm a part of, but I've gotten to a very strong point about it. I'm good at it, very powerful in my class and do great in arenas, but I can pass up an instance run or a raid to sit down and watch Mobile Suit Gundam, or play Final Fantasy VII, or go to the stove and cook a real meal. Warcraft is not a priority in my life as it is in others and honestly with the new anime group I'm associated with, I might just kick it altogether.

If a decent Lunar mmo ever happens, i'll be another lost soul, though.

Only Julie is allowed to do that, and she's not here. Bad Phyco. *swats Phyco with a rolled up newspaper*

I've been to the site MANY times before. I dunno, I guess I was just too lazy to sign up until recently. I'm glad I did though.

I'm just sorry I took a week to finally activate your account...

Seriously, I gotta make a reminder to check the inactive list every time I sign in. KF

It's cool man. I'm sure you have better stuff to do than check up on new member activations EVERY day. Lol. By the way, I sent you another email earlier this morning about Magical School Lunar and SEga Saturn stuff. Just give me your input when you get the time. Thanks!

Well yeah, but I'd imagine its a disincentive to be waiting for like a week before being able to join.

Regarding your email, I'll get back to it later today. But I'll post the same thing on the boards as well, since I think it's probably stuff others are interested in as well. KF
