Welcome

Maybe this thread is for you  ;D

http://vgcollect.com/forum/index.php/topic,4705.0.html

I was thinking the same thing about the timing of that thread & his Introduction  ;D

(didn't wanna potentially scare anyone off, though)  :o

Haii!

Just thought I'd drop a little message here to say hi. I've been lurking for a few weeks already and started putting my collection on here. It's pretty neat and the community seems nice! I've been looking for a forum like this for a while and I'm glad to be part of this community (where it's not only people bragging about how their collection's worth 10 millions haha).


Welcome to the family! :D
Don't be scared off by the thread fazerco linked, by the way :P I also started my collection thanks to my work in a video games store (I could trade all my greatest hits/player's choice for black labels, that was awesome :P ). And I have to say you've got some taste in consoles!

Welcome!  ;D 

And yeah, despite what anyone says I doubt there's anyone here who wouldn't have jumped on something like Skies Legends for .99.  ;)

It's not really that so much as stuff like:

"can eat my ass"

isn't the warmest, coziest, friendliest, and most welcoming 1st impression/sentiment to a new site member  ;)

Hi there;

My name is Oliver - when I'm not slaving away at work, spending time with my wonderful wife of nearly two years, or at church - one can find me in front of my video games.

I don't care for the status quo - in fact, it's something I ignore completely. Thats' why, in a city where pickup trucks are ridiculously popular, I drive a 2009 Smart ForTwo. I watch NASCAR, WWE, Pro Wrestling, and Super Sentai on TV. My dream girl (after my wife) is the girl who plays Amy on Big Bang Theory. I'm an energy drink addict.

Thats me in a nutshell. I'm on Xbox Life - if one is interested in chatting or whatever, feel free to hit me up.

Take care and keep gaming!

Hahaha don't worry guys, this will not scare me!
I've read a couple of posts there and there're some good comments but I'll respond there if I find it necessary as this is not the place!

If I'm not mistaken, I think you're from Canada? I've seen a video, if I remember right, from you and you sounded like your first language is french (with your accent). I don't want to feel like a creepo invading your privacy haha but I'm from Canada also and speak french! So I was wondering if you were close to me or something. :P

Blodwast Welcome to the site.  Don't let anything around here scare you off.  This is a good bunch of folks.  We have fun, even if we have strong opinions from time to time.  Enjoy your stay and feel free to jump in with both feet.

Well, that's not creepy, but it sure surprised me  :P Yep, I'm from Quebec, my native language is French, but I speak English pretty fluently, I guess. Where are you from exactly?
