Ineffable Wingbolt BMA Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Hi, you must be a pure avernite. Haven't seen you over at the Geneforge forums. I notice that there are several members over here who have registered exactly at 12:00 pm. Surely, it can't be a coincidence.I suppose you wait until the clock ticks twelve, and then click the register button ? Though the idea is rather amusing, it does look pretty good on the profile. Edit : Actually, all of the moderators have apparently joined at 12:00 pm, so my assumption doesn't hold true. What is this all about ?

What is this all about ? The forums didn't keep track of the exact time of day when someone registered until relatively recently. Anyone who registered before that gets a placeholder time.

Well-Actually War Trall Actaeon Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 As Lilith observed, the old UBB didn't record it, so we default to noon (I see eleven, but I'm mountain time). I don't think the old one even showed registration day on posts (just on their profile). It was all about relative time and member numbers (which also changed, actually). Unsurprisingly, most or all of the mods predate that turnover (which was, what, 2008?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unsurprisingly, most or all of the mods predate that turnover (which was, what, 2008?). I don't know about registration day, but I'm fairly certain that the month and year were both present even before the new system. I remember being June of 2004 quite clearly, though that doesn't mean that the old system necessarily had it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk nikki. Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Well. luckily we can find out pretty easily from the PPP. Member number, and the full date (including day of the week!) was recorded, but no time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt BMA Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 So its only a technical issue and not any kind of secret society (not that I really believed it was anything like that of course, but still, I was wondering). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Actaeon Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Of course not. No secret society could ever have a rational explanation for their eccentricities. Don't be ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easygoing Eyebeast The Mystic Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Welcome back, Arch-Mage. I didn't really notice your absence (sorry about that), but I haven't been as active as I'd have liked, so I probably overlooked it when I was here.

Well-Actually War Trall Harehunter Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Greetings Arch-Mage. I have had to stay away for a little while. I had a code in my node that was really frustrating. But now I'm back to 'normal'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 Hello Harehunter. Haven't seen you around either. I see the cartography of the exile series are really coming along. Welcome Arch-mage solberg. I was lucky enough to know you my whole time, since you were here before me. I didn't really notice you were gone, though.

Well-Actually War Trall Harehunter Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Hello Trenton, I have finally gotten some more work to post up this weekend. Hope you're doing well in school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Trenton. Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Yes. Very well. Eh, to keep the subject going. Solberg, why have you not responded? We have been saying these nice, warm things, and where are you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ineffable Wingbolt Arch-Mage Solberg Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Sorry about the slow response. I'll only be online maybe once or twice a week since I don't have internet at my house. Now to respond to a few posts. Originally Posted By: BMA Hi, you must be a pure avernite. Haven't seen you over at the Geneforge forums. I'd like to assume that I am the purest Avernite as I have only bought the first Geneforge and only played the demo for the second, but have bought all Avernums! As for posting in the Geneforge forum...I'll leave that to the professionals. Originally Posted By: Death Knight Ive never met you, but thats cool. Come to see if were all still insane? I have no worries that there are still insane people here. My only worry is that noone is more insane than me! Originally Posted By: Randomizer Originally Posted By: Arch-Mage Solberg ...but I'm back after a nearly 2 month absence. I'm still alive and kicking! Post 653 You were gone? I just assumed you didn't have anything to say. There's always something to say...although Solberg doesn't always say what's RIGHT! Originally Posted By: Harehunter Greetings Arch-Mage. I have had to stay away for a little while. I had a code in my node that was really frustrating. But now I'm back to 'normal'. Welcome to you too, Harehunter. Is there really such a thing as "Normal"? Originally Posted By: Trenton the Drake Lord Welcome Arch-mage solberg. I was lucky enough to know you my whole time, since you were here before me. I didn't really notice you were gone, though. Noone ever misses me when I leave. Originally Posted By: Actaeon The Arch-Mage was here before most of us. So true! Why I remember back when I was a wee little lad when.....wait...what were we talking about again? Originally Posted By: Trenton the Drake Lord Solberg, why have you not responded? We have been saying these nice, warm things, and where are you? Long absences are not unheard of for me. Thanks everyone who acknowledged my absences and said those "nice, warm things". Where was I? At home mostly, remodeling and playing Skyrim! Post #655 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Harehunter Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I must admit that what is normal for me is definitely not normal for anyone else. In a conversation today with one of our programmers, we agreed that anyone who speaks hexadecimal with a native accent definitely has issues.

Well-Actually War Trall Balladeer Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Only two months? Pft. Two months is just a drop in the bucket. Six months... now that's starting to be a notable absence. But have a *huggles* anyway cuz it feels more like six months to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Harehunter Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Good to see you too Jewels. It feels like it has been about six months since I saw a post from you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
