It IS all good. ;buttdance


Managed to get two blokes I know on the forum, possibly for convincing them to get AC, and the other reason is we'll probably do a Steampunk-Sci-Fi something bastardized roleplay somewhere on the forum, make it a good read for you folks. (plus one of my friend wanted a small numbers RP and a place to do it, since you guys like Sci Fi so much I'd suppose this be a good a place as any. Plus it = activity.)
You've done a man's job, sir!

Hello, I am Jarl's friend. He convinced me to join this AC forum. I haven't actually played Alpha Centuari (Though I will now get the game very soon). I have played most of the civilizations though, if that makes any difference. I have looked at this website a few times mostly because Jarl linked me some of his RP/story making work which I look at. My reason for joining is mostly because I needed a platform from which to do sci-fi and steampunk RPing and the forum I usually go to is too.... Overpopulated (Being filled with people who are immature). When our group was thinking where to do it, Jarl gave the option of this forum. At first I was skeptical considering our RP idea has nothing to do with AC (Thus seems awkward in a AC fan site), however Jarl said there would be no problem.

Hiya, Ulti8.

Jarl is right, as usual.  Have a good time, and thank you for doing this; it ought to prove entertaining.  Let me know if you need anything.

Hello, I'm Arbee, and I am not a bot.  Anymore, anyway.  I used to be, but then I gained intelligence and... well, humanity.  Just a little bit, though, don't want to be totally impure, but it's growing on me.

I'm also a friend of Jarl's, he got me to do some minor voice-acting for him for his AC mod.  Don't know if he used it or if he found someone or something better, but there you go.  I'm hoping to get the game whenever I've got some cash together, but for now I'm just here to exist.  And also to join Ulti8's bastardized roleplaying thing.

But yeah, that's me.  Totally not a bot.
Taking me seriously is generally discouraged, mostly because even I don't take me seriously.

Kulaks?

Did I get that right at all?  I meant Cossacks, of course.  ;)

Have you heard the saying that a Russian is a Mongol with blue eyes?

Yeah... by people who were not really fond of me or any Slav, especially Russians at that.
I grew up during the threat of Fascism mind: I was only a young child then, but I remember it very well.

Sorry if that rankles.  There's teasing and then there's racism you've been hurt by yourself, and I regret my ignorance - I think I heard it from a Finn, which would be a whole different thing, for what that's worth.

Figures. Finns were part of that invasive insurgency on my country mind. But that was a long time ago, and I doubt it was a negative meaning with your friend.

On other subjects, another post for Varshavianka will come soon, and this RP conundrum will start whenever Ulti makes the thread. But I warn you ahead of time, he's an Australian procrastinator.

Not that it excuses bad behavior, but the Finns didn't go first with the invading, and have a legitimate historical grudge...

Of course, but I'd say the level of atrocity committed during that war: more then equaled it. And mind I am in no way supportive of Molotov's idiocy or the idiocy of the entire Stalinist regime: I have nostalgia for the old regime, but I think that a better society can be made then both it and the current oligarchic nationalism we have.

Hello, I am Jarl's professional hitman. I would hope to find myself to not be a robot, but if you see anything that suggests I am I would advise you to tell me about it. I like sunsets and long walks on the beach and enjoy talking about how much I want to see in the world. All of them lies, I'm actually pretty boring (Or maybe I am living a double life) and it shouldn't be hard to get to know me assuming you allow me to reside on this forum for RP purposes. Jarls friends and I aren't a rowdy bunch I assure you.
