SuikoX had its share of heated discussion, though. Some people took the game really to their heart, were emotionally involved and took things personally.
However, it was not trolling and it was always fun (to me, at least). The sense of community was amazing and not something you could find at many places.
I sure hope we can get back to that. _________________

Got made redundant, got a new job (which is much closer and cuts about 2 hours commuting time off each day!) and had two kids, two boys one of which is nearly 2 1/2 and the other is 9 months.
In doing so I also lost 99% of any free time I might of had... Kids are time-consuming... _________________

Don't I know it about the kids--I'm at the age where all my friends are having children, and sometimes it seems like I never see them anymore! C'est la vie, I suppose. _________________

Well... I am 33 now, working in the food industry with spice mixtures for all sorts of meat. And of course I am still hoping for a proper Suikoden 6... well.. I don't count on it... but still. _________________ Mess with the best, die like the rest!

Got much more responsibility at work, lead 2 teams now, have to implement health management, have a side job and bake cakes in a café nearby, sold the condo, bought a new and bigger one, celebrated the daughter's 18th birthday this year, agree with decado that kids are time-consuming (but it gets better when they're 12+ or so, dec ;-)... ). |

Senior in college. Tutoring writing for younger students. Teaching Latin and Ancient Greek to noobs. New girlfriend. Rock climbing. Playing some Shogi. Running a lot. Muscle building a lot. More hair. Using a Mac now. Much more confident and outgoing. Quite into Doctor Who these days. Finally developed a philosophical system that satisfies me for the time being. Flossing daily now. Still hilarious. Cocky as ever. Studied abroad in Rome last fall.
Still playing Suikoden III regularly. |

Got Engaged, was unengaged. Went to move into the big city, made a LOT of new friends, learned a lot about the world, lived in a warehouse. Started doing a lot of research into Bio-mechanics. As soon as I make enough money, I plan on going into that field of study. |

Has it really been 3 years since this place went quiet?
Well....I finally got a "permanent job" this year....and I'm still working on a Master's degree in IT on the side....
otherwise still love drawing, video gaming, and anime.
(I'd also like to think my Japanese has improved lately as I've "Imported" more "released-only in Japan" games recently..... including titles like Tales of Vesperia [PS3 version], Suikoden 1 & 2, and .hack//LINK
but haha...dunno) _________________

Good luck, haha.
The first game I tried to play in Japanese was actually Pokemon Gold (before it came out in the US) and I remember getting pretty far in that game before the English version came out even....
But I guess back then I didn't really pay much attention to the plot.... _________________

I've been employed for a while now. It pays well enough although I'm really bad at money. I've got myself a fine girl and living in an apartment near the office. A bit of a farcry from the socially awkward college student that I was when I was active here years ago.
Time's gone by so fast. I've also packed on a couple pounds that I wish I had more time to work out. :| _________________ Why don't you drop by the Seraphim Garden and spend your Cabal Nights with me? |

I was around in the earlier days of the site. I remember developing the Harmonia nation into a powerhouse for a little while, but I soon got distracted by Uni, WoW and a relationship.
I was more actively involved with the Suikoden community through 2002. I made a lot of good friends from all over the world back then. A few of the early members here may still remember me from early '05.
Now, I've graduated Uni with dual majors in Linguistics and Philosophy and am looking at heading back to Japan on the JET programme with my partner of almost 7 years. Took me a while to get my degree thanks to WoW/ internet addiction, but I made it through. |
