Thank you

[John Clabo]

I would like to just say thank you to all of you that have helped us grow. We have gone from nothing to something in little over a month with YOUR HELP!
Without everyone's help there would be no Gamernode. Just remember, you are the first here. When this place is HUGE! You will be the founding members. So keep up the great work and keep telling your friends what we are doing here.

[KilZo]

:D I'm pretty sure I can speak for everyone in saying you're welcome, and Thank YOU for giving us this opportunity to be a part of this great project. :D

[Natoksane]

Yeah, what Kilzo says. I'm happy to be staff.

[Skate]

I plan on becoming a huge part of gamernode and as i learn coding better maybe become an admin one day, im always trying to help improve... Glad to be a part of this community, everyone here is great!

[Mario]

Haha, this is great. I just joined today, and I'm gonna be considered a founding member? Cool. :) I just got the link from Skate's sig at another site. :D

[Natoksane]

As John has said, and now proven, linking us with sigs actually works!

[Skate]

Yup i have put ure sig up and im currently trying to promote you guys the best i can, your also in my AIM profile, i see i actually helped GO ME!!! ^_^

[SaladFork]

Yeah, I have the exact same signature here as on the TotalBF2 forum, both linked to GamerNode.

With the new site will come a Link To Us page with anything from banners to buttons to badges, so you can show your support, =)

[claypidgeon]

There's always new things! I love new things! New things are cool! HEY!!!!! Where are my new things???

:Ponder:

[John Clabo]

[spuit*11]

I would like to just say thank you to all of you that have helped us grow.
No problem, I mean, it's my job... being a superhero and all. :hihi:

[John Clabo]

lol, Welcome to the Node spuit. Hope it becomes the next big community for ya :p

[spuit*11]

I will definetly try to visit it as much as I can.

[JokerDude573]

You are all doing GREAT and you are my new favorite community/news site! Keep up the great work! Im telling all my friends about this place.

[Jesus666]

yay
..

[BddBlade]

Awsome, I will definatly tell people I know to go here whenever they need information on a specific video game :) This is exciting.

[JokerDude573]

Yea I think with GamerNode radio and the sweet selection of news (nice site too) that GamerNode will be twice the size of GameShout. For those of you asking why I keep mentioning GameShout.....They used to be the place I went....the forums just went downhill fast followed by the radio. Lets hope we dont see the same happen here :D

[claypidgeon]

Yes lets! I would hate to see all the work we've thrown into this flushed away! Not to mention the disappoinment on all the new fans faces! ;)

But rest easy, I am certain that we are in this for the long haul!

Joined to answer about a thread about Coca-Cola vs Pepsi, otherwise I don't know sh#t about gaming or components or anything. A guy who is broke can't do much.

[John Clabo]

Hehehehe

Well welcome to the community anyways :P

Well welcome to the community anyways :P
This is the best gaming site in the world... and you're lookin at the reason why (or reading his post at least) :wall:

THis is the guy who is one of those longest HLS veterans around, way before I came along, you know with other guys like Girthesniper, SDXY and M16 Grenadier. Knows every there is to know about building comps and stuff.

Lol, nice to see some familiar faces here. Guess I have to help you with that computer after all :censored: lol.

[Sam Raven]

Lol, nice to see some familiar faces here. Guess I have to help you with that computer after all :censored: lol.Not now, I am still on the old 2 Ghz Pentium 4 (HT not supported) processor with a noobish graphics card and 512MB RAM. I will ask you when I get my new comp, which assuming this comp lasts as long as the previous Pentium 1 I had, I have another 2 years to go at least.

Sounds like a familiar formula to me! Maybe someone should post a site where people can find out how long they can expect to keep their PC!

Ideally I would replace mine every other week when someone releases a new graphics card or processor or faster RAM or nicer looking drink holder! But in the real world I am faced with when the kids don't need something, when the car doesn't need something, when the house doesn't need something and when someone isn't having a birthday! 365 is not enough days! :P

[gamer2272]

You are all doing GREAT and you are my new favorite community/news site! Keep up the great work! Im telling all my friends about this place.


what he said :biggthump

[noobman]

I've had my PC for about 3 years now... I put 100 dollars into upgrading RAM, 250 into replacing a fried graphics card with a card of similar perfomrmance, and about 300 into sound (Canadian dollars lol).

The fact that I can still run most games on high settings is acutally pretty good. With my older systems, the three year point was the time I got it replaced since it wouldn't run any game at a stable framerate, or it would struggle with even the most simple applications.

I mean I can't believe they allowed such PCs on the market. :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall: :wall:

Edit: I would rather say the motherboard is the problem here.http://img375.imageshack.us/img375/6844/suicide1gy1xk.gif (http://imageshack.us)

Hi Hi Hi

[D3TON8R]

Hi and Welcome! :D

Go to the "introduce yourself" thread and tell us about yaself! :D

[JokerDude573]

This place is doing great. New members.....great news. And soon...awesome show and site!

Keep up the good work guys. Im spreading the word like mad :)

[Kevin Watford]

yay yay thanks man.

[Sam Raven]

Asking fellow people from my classes to join is a problem. They, like me don't have the money to even think about games, let alone upgrading, and because of this many stick to a console where they don't ever have to think about upgrading as far as games are concerned.

People here sure have different tastes from most Europeans and Americans. Or maybe because most of the people I know spend their money on gifts for their girlfriends, chalets + BBQ (not the gamer term) during the holidays, and often go out often every night with friends for a beer. I don't do all those things, just stay at home and that is where my participation in this forum comes in. So I guess I have given you the reasons for that.

This might not sound right, but I hope this forum stays small for as long as possible. I once knew a forum which got big real fast, because of an influx of members, and it wasn't long before it started going down the crapper.

I know this will sound really crazy but I believe a more strict system of punishment so that those who continue after 3 warnings are banned for 3 months. 4th time is 6 months and 5th (3 strikes and you are out) is permaban with no recourse. Goatse is immediate permaban with no further discussion unless its proven that the account had been hijacked, which applies to the trolling case as well.

That way it is hoped the forums are kept clean, and big time leaders in the gaming world be it guys like Gabe Newell will have to look at us in a serious light. Internet is still the Wild West of the 21st Century, and we have to take the initiative as law and order is concerned.

[D3TON8R]

Do you feel it's kept clean so far? I do. In fact, for the last ten years of forum hunting this is definately one of the best sites i've ever been part of.

I agree that we shouldn't get too big too fast, but i don't think you have that problem here. :P

Anyways, you'll always be one of the first members and a productive member at that, so don't stress about being lost in a crowd :)

[Kevin Watford]

Ya the best way for us to keep clean is for the members themselves to police the fourms and let other newer members feel they're welcome but that spamming, flamming, trolling will not be tollerated.

[Zombawa]

Hey guys. I'm getting more free time now so I'll stick around the forums and start helping out with stuff as soon as I can.

GAMERNODE IS BETTER THAN SEX.

Well.... Almost.

[BahamutBBob]

I'm surprised that nobody came and said "don't bump year and a half old threads" yet.

And Waffle speaks the truth.
