Haven't been here in a while, fill me in on the haps

Post by BoringSupreez »

I haven't been to Racketboy in about 6 months, because I've been busy. Busy with school, and also, just spending more time actually playing games, instead of spending most of my time reading about them. Anyway, I've had my fill of that. So I'm just wondering, has anything important, besides the new site look, happened since I was last here?

I joined and made myself into one of the forum's elite.

Man, has it really been five months already?

The moderators banded together and overthrew Racket. We just haven't decided on the new name for the site yet. The current frontrunner is Ackboy.

I like your avatar. That's one of my favorite webcomics.

The Charity auction went crazy high compared to last year's haul. New front page design. Many vehicle purchases recently for members. :)

The robots rose and replaced us all with perfect copies.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I'm debating whether to change it every month to different webcomics I've read. That would give me a year and a half of awesome avatar times!
