I've been on a lot of game forums a lot of them have a "Show yourself" thread, but I've never heard of that issue you said I mean it probably happens but rarely a lot of people are made aware of the dangers of the internet.ZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »Love putting a face to some of the names!
@UrQuan, you do realize that's how we'll all picture you from now on
@ZOS_GinaBruno . I thought this would be closed down and deleted actually. In one game forum I used to frequent, a thread like this was abused by people with perverse sexual appetites to contact and befriend gullible teenagers. Do we have any here, or is this forum only accessible for adults who supposedly know what they're getting into?

Oh, now I have something new I need to read!I know, right? Oh oh, did I remember to tell you that I got an awesome Terry Pratchett calendar for Xmas? Way off topic, but I know you'd appreciate it...So I know that some of the regular posters on the forums stream or make videos, and as a result I know what some of you folks look like in real life, but I thought it might be fun to have a thread where people who want to can show us what you look like in real life. It could be really interesting to see if people look at all like how we picture them!
So anyone who's comfortable with showing the forums a picture of what you really look like, feel free to post it here so we can put a face to the name!
And here's me:
Y'know, I always pictured you with blonde tentacles, funny how you can get a picture in your head!Well, if you didn't realize before that I'm a giant predatory caterpillar-like creature bent on enslaving all other life-forms in the galaxy, now you doZOS_GinaBruno wrote: »Love putting a face to some of the names!

No you hadn't, very nice! I got Terry Pratchett presents The World of Poo by Miss Felicity Beedle. Ever since I read the line "I seem to have stepped in something rural" in Snuff I wanted to read it. Very informative!
To stay on topic, I'll put my all purpose internet picture hereHa ha, yes, I had a bit of a "holy crap" moment when you mentioned that in that thread I knew @Daraugh was a Pratchett fan because we're in the same guild and, well, check out the name of the second character she lists in her sig. It's a dead giveaway Plus we've chatted about Pratchett.More Terry Pratchett fans?! I know I mentioned it in my "Getting to know you" thread but I lived near him. Met him several times and fumbled over basic English each time. Have his complete collection including autographs and rare prints from Paul Kilby!
I wouldn't even have been able to speak, probably would have just mumbled something incoherent and then blushed ten shades of red! My husband met Sir Terry at a book signing when he was working at bookstore in Ann Arbor.
Oh I and saw a Khajiit named The Amazing Maurice yesterday, that is a simply awesome name.
What, you don't think that's really me?

Hey, that dinner isn't for you! I do still need to do it though... My friends and I have been talking about it for a long time, it's about time we actually did it.sirrmattus wrote: »So I know that some of the regular posters on the forums stream or make videos, and as a result I know what some of you folks look like in real life, but I thought it might be fun to have a thread where people who want to can show us what you look like in real life.

No, no, you've got it all wrong. The Star Control games were inspired by me and my fellow giant predatory caterpillar aliens!nimander99 wrote: »I always figured you took your forum name from Starcontrol @UrQuan your pic just proves I was right
P.S I loved the Starcontrol series, great games!
Pics or it didn't happen.
I used to have a hot pink mohawk... Some days I miss it... like every time I brush my hair...

I ran through a few dungeons in Bangkorai with a guy who's name was "Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler", and found out he was levelling him to become a master provisioner and only sell pies
