Dunno 'bout Wheeler but Curt and Chrissy are here.
I can't remember when I came here, but it was from constant referral by others at the board I was on of this "GA" thing. I do remember that it took around 11 months for my account to be approved, though.

I remember all the Intelligent Gamer staff migrating from there to EGM, and posting on this board. I still see John TV post occasionally.

a long while, I think maybe 2 years. It's really affecting my productivity at work.
A year, since the dynamics of GameFAQs and Gamespot/IGN started changing and I had to get my gaming news from somewhere. Y'all are actually pretty informative when you're not getting into trollfests or E-Penis sizing "my series/system/political party is better than yours" contests

Since about the time OOT came out. November of 1998, i'd say.

about four/five years......
Hmm, i guess since 2002 when i was registered on the last board as "DXUNC". I came from the IGN boards from a thread Olimario linked here, none the less. I've only started posting on Neo-GAF, i guess i can see why i'm not tired of it yet. I'm a message board youngin'.
The NextGen timeframe is roughly Sept. 99. That's when I really started posting here. Picked up my Dreamcast, was excited and enjoying it and then needed somewhere to post. Right aruond the day of launch, the NGO forums bombed out (maybe for the last time?)
So I've been here since '99. Post count has been consistently huge and everyone always looks to me for the definitive response in every thread.
Well here it is boys.... here it is....

I'm a NGO refugee and I think I started posting here shortly after that forum collapsed when I was told that some of the old NGO crew came here.

Since around 2001 I think.
I'm not even sure, honestly.
I was connecting through the ga.gamesquad.net address, and it was well before we had to re-register do to the forum collapse.
2-2.5 years maybe? I think Serafitia and I started coming around the same time, so if she replies, I'll have a better idea of how long I've been here.

...although I haven't gone anywhere at any point, really -- just not much to say.November,
1999.
I wonder what happened to some old posters, like PHREDD, Wavelflack(kind of come and goes in OA, but he's mostly gone), Abbadabba(gone from OA, too), DominusDefunctorum, Wilykat and a few others. Newsboyz99 too, I think he was GAF's first h4rdc0r3 Nintentroll. Then there's some wackos like the guy that named his daughter Aeris. I think he worked for EA or something.

1997 - back when Sam Kennedy was the shot-caller, Patrick was an underaged fanboy without an afro and Ryan wasn't quite the angry sod that he is today.
I miss FishieFlopOog. Damn he was ugly

Abba is McLesterolBeast here on GA, if it's any consolation.
Not sure if that's supposed to be common knowledge or not, but I'm pretty sure I've seen a few other posters refer to him as "Abba" in threads, so I figure it's ok. PHREDD was the funniest guy ever; he's lurked both here and at OA a few times, and I even made a thread "calling him out" once while he was lurking, but to no avail. Oh well-- we'll always have the memories. "These pretzels...are making me thirsty."
Dominus is around, iirc, though I forget his new name. Wavel as you said is here and there on OA, though I converse with him via email from time to time. Newzboyz99-- well there's a name from the past. :lol Really don't know what happened to him...Wilykat either (didn't he end up at that "CuddlyGamers" site? I got sent a PM about it 'bout a year ago and visited once, coulda swore I saw a post by him there...).

I could have sworn that "Screenboy" had a post saying he changed his name from "SickBoy" ::scratches head:: My mistake *_*

Edit: Whoa Newzboys. I haven't heard that name in a long time.
Wonder where he went.
I think Ripclawe 'saw him off' by repeatably beating Newz at his own game of "First to post the latest PR/Newswire story"
...Then there's some wackos like the guy that named his daughter Aeris. I think he worked for EA or something.
Wasn't that DarkJediKnight? - I seem to recall that he decided that RL needed more of his time, Either that or EA finally decided to start locking their staff up 24/7
What happened to Raist? (Killed in the worlds first exclamation mark critical mass experiment is my guess
)I kinda miss Fishie too, had a habit of making me laugh, but damn did he know how to rub lots of people up the wrong way.

Fishie certainly rubbed me the wrong way, with his Sony-fan-baiting.
I've been posting here a long ass time. I first found this place back in the saturn days. I used to love it when OPA and Futami used to go at it. My first user name where Ishamael the Gray Esper. Then some Mod gave me a a some tag like "Has Gay ESP!" So then I had my "Zor" series of names, Zor, Zor Magnus, and the Zor Prime. I probably was the most active as Zor. I was a big Halo whore back then and I'd appear in just about every thread about Halo threads and chant "GO HALO! GO HALO!" Then I left for the Air Force and was unable to post for nearly two years. I came back this summer and now I'm back as tagless ol' Cimarron.
