    I'm from the Bioware forums, and I still do quite a bit of reading and posting there. The no- and minimal-reload threads are still going strong, with lots of cool screenshots.

    Hi, Son-of-Imoen, nice to see you.

    Gamebanshee for me, with a sprinkle of planetbaldursgate.

    Nobody from Team Flapjack? How quickly they forget.

    Planet Baldur's Gate for community, Sorcerer's place for reference.

    Am I the only one who used the IRONWORKS FORUM? It had a great BG community WAY back 10 years ago. The place is all but deserted now, though their archives for the BG games are still fun to read, full of lots of good info and AARs.

    Another one from Ironworks right here. I wasn't really that active there as a poster, but I've read through most of the Baldur's Gate related material.

    TeamBG when it first came out. I've been involved in the modding community since it began. I'm the founder of the Chosen of Mystra mod community.

    Hi to you as well, nice to see you here too.

    @spacehamster: I know the Irongaming Forums, but have only lurked there, never created an account.

    Oh, and I wasn't Cheesebelly back then. I was dark-lauron, from the House of Lunatics :P (so if anyone happens to remember me for some random reason, do send a PM, I'll feel all cozy and warm inside :3 )

    Hey man, I remember that name! :)

    I was only sporadically active on the Bioware forums, but I would pop by there whenever I went back to the BG series. My last run through must've been right around the time when the forums reset, IIRC (I've since gone all-macs, which has put off BG-ing far too long -- really excited for native osx support with BGEE!).

    G3, SHS, PPG (Primarily).

    Sorcerers, TatW, CoM, Candlekeep, Bioware, Ironworks, and some others (Rarely).

    Sometimes I think I might actually get something done, and then of course someone posts something, and there goes the day :)

    (I wanted to join Team Flapjack, but I wasn't 1337 enough. I wasn't even 10100111001. I was only /\/008.)

    I've been holding down the fort at the BG/IWD specific discussions on Gog.com. It is where I first heard of this website.

    Not much activity but i've primarily used the gamebanshee forums in my countless playthroughs.

    Hail and well met, brave warriors!
    My own adventures began on an IRC channel, I -think- run or soon became the owner of, that turned into www.sorcerers.net. That is where I met many other like minded adventurers and put together an Icewind Dale and Baldur's Gate 2 online walkthrough.

    You did an excellent job on that one. Do you have plans for doing the same for BG1? I've been looking for such a good online walkthrough like you did for BG2!

    I think I was an honourary member for a time. ;-)

    That place was the best.

    I used Ironworks to read a review on a mod I made.

    What's G3?
  • cmorgancmorgan Member Posts: 707
    Hah! Funny!
  • CoM_SolaufeinCoM_Solaufein Member Posts: 2,606
    I've been to most of the old school BG forums of the past at one time or another, Bioware, Black Isle, Interplay, Gamebanshee, Ironworks, Planetbaldur'sgate, etc
  • YorleenYorleen Member Posts: 150
    A little time on the TeamBG forums back to 2001/2002 and eventually the Bioware forums (NWN, Dragon Age...)
  • CoM_SolaufeinCoM_Solaufein Member Posts: 2,606
    I remember your name. I was known as Apocalypse2000 at TBG back in the day.
  • YorleenYorleen Member Posts: 150
    I remember the name Solaufein actually, rather than Apocalypse :) At the time, I was already asking for a way to make the game start inside the library, lol - I'll be delighted if modding is made easier with BG EE.
  • CoM_SolaufeinCoM_Solaufein Member Posts: 2,606
    I've used this name as well at that time, 2002 and later.

    *waves* :P
    Silverblade, yup, *that* Silverblade from Interplay forums of yesteryear! ;)
    Fizz, Bear or any of old crowd around?

    Well, this is my first time I spend time with a BG community.
