I gave Tom my spare ID, # 2066.
As Sebster said, I probably helped more in two posts than everyone else did in the rest of them.
That being said, I just was in the right place at the right time and had a bad stroke of Auth fails because of an IP change which made me get the new ID far beforehand.
I've also been playing since mid-late V7, or about 2 1/2 years, established myself in the community, and befriended many others who have done the same. I think that after all of the above, I'm more than qualified to call myself a "veteran".

--- Quote ---A veteran (from Latin vetus, meaning "old") is a person who has had long service or experience in a particular occupation or field; i.e., a person who has or is serving in the armed forces, and has direct exposure to acts of military conflict, commonly known as war veterans (although not all military conflicts, or areas in which armed combat takes place, are necessarily referred to as "wars").

I've been around since early to mid V7, I didn't have the demo long before I bought the game, so I'm not going to bother counting that.

Haha, I just realized this is the second time we've consecutively talked about when we joined.
Anyhoo. The V7-V8 ages were good times indeed.

I agree.
I'm a bit of a roleplay fan, and the very best ones I ever had on Blockland were in V7 and V8.
Nowadays most of the people I get on my server can't RP for squat.

Randomness' End of Time was one of the best. He's doing a rerun now, which I'm really enjoying. What it lacked in complexity, it made up for in amazing plot. We should RP sometime.
