Title: Well hello there!
Post by: LoveDuckie on 09 Nov 2012, 14:59: Sup.

I'm LoveDuckie. How's it going?

Computer Games Programming student from the UK.

I read this comic all the time, and only just noticed the link to the forums on here from the main website.

Have a nice day :)

PS: :psyduck: <-- That's awesome.

It is, however, not limited to that particular awesomeness!

Just make sure you don't exceed your personal awesomeness threshold...that can lead to visions of holoponies.

Well, that explains the men in white coats I saw you with last week.

Welcome!

I am glad to hear it!

And from the sounds of the other replies, it looks like I have a lot of community goodness to catch up on :3

There's plenty of games discussion. I haven't followed it closely, but there is probably interesting discussion for a games programmer.

Post by: Bluesummers on 11 Nov 2012, 16:08: A lot, I would assume. Most wanted to give Jeph some well-wishes.

That's quite a lot actually.

When did these forums start?

Note that the numbers in the members list are meaningless, because historically the huge majority of them were taken up by spammers (about 80 a day, though they were then mostly denied access to the forums by an automated check). Recent changes in numbers are realistic though, because now nearly all spammers are weeded out before a number is assigned to them.
