Well it has been sometime since I've posted in the Prime... can't even remember what any of my recent topics in here were about, probably about something crap as I ran low on ideas to start discussions. So just so for my own piece of mind I thought I should go back to the good old FOG and post something... maybe about gaming.

Well I'm not sure where to start so lets throw some ideas together...

How about a little bit of my past on the old FOG, but not a 100% topic about my time on here etc. Something about me and gaming then and me and gaming then and a mixture of assorted garbage.

Well back in October when I SINED up under the alis of SHEEPY I was desperate to get a free game somehow as as usual I had very little money. I stumbled accross this place and the rest is history as they say. Very few people know this but I actually won a game in my first week as SHEEPY (Damn newbies :D).

So in the first week I had used up all my knowledge of gaming to try and win... to be honest was very little. I came here knowing basics on consoles, companies, games etc... and managed to bluff my way through the forums pretending I knew everything under the sun... which I didn't at that time, maybe now though ;-).

Right this is not one of those thank you speeches or one of those horrible life changes thing and the forums helped through... so I wonder where its leading because I don't know myself really.

AH how about this... although I knew little about gaming I soon learned a bit but even if I was a dunce at gaming knowledge I loved to play games and helped me get through boring life. Then probably about December I had crappy prelims at school and studied so no games for me. Then January.. got girlfriend and she took up all free time so no more games again. Then February I REALLY discovered joys of alcohol and doing socialising any time I could so no games... and other crap, including computer messing up.

So in conclusion I never had the same oppurtunity to play games in past few while and really I don't mind at all... sure I play if I have a free 20 mins but really as many have said before me there losing it but still great things... its just not when I was young I'd save up money and buy a game anytime I could but now its all music, alcohol, clothes and other crap... and also in referring to the top why I don't post in Prime as its full of gaming and I don't find it appealing anymore, well to an extent.

SO emmmm Thanks :-)

I HONESTLY don't remember writing this pile of crap :-)

AND NO I have not been drinking for 2 weeks.

Anyway I didn't understand reading it again which may well be why I don't understand the replies :-)

I just hate it but as you have discovered, life gets in the way of gaming. Incidentally, what happened with the girlfriend? You still together?
