Author Topic:   Whatever happened to TAS?

Hey, whatever happened to TAS. As of when I stopped posting for a while (when the school year started) he had something like 10 thousand posts. Then I come back, the server is crashed, and TAS is no where to be seen. What happened?

Not wanting to put words in his mouth, but...
TAS does still post. I think he got tired of the silly threads and the not silly but still off-topic threads. (Although he must look at some of the off-topics because he has posted in the "Fantasy Books" threads.)

Are you implying that TAS is a Lurker? That's seems impossible to imagine.

I try to post most on-topic. Unfortunately not that many on-topic posts.

The lack of Sci/Tech Ideas and Factions areas does seem to have stifled a lot of the on topic posts. There are also not many suggestions to make as the game is about to go gold and not much new info because we know so much already.

TAS, any idea how or who stole your username?

Yes, someone was playing a trick and after a few days, sent me the password to it. I changed it to an email I seldom use and am letting it die there.

Pity, I forgot my password, kinda stupid eh.

Stupid, but expected Just ask firaxis to email it to you, jerkass!
(BTW, Jerkass is not meant as an insult, just another comical reference to the simpsonites)

Actually I changed my E-Mail address to hotmail at the beginning of the school year and I forgot both my user and password to get into that E-Mail. Since I'm too lazy to answer that dumb question they gave me, I decided to simply use Jimbo2
