Larian Studios Forums General Chat I like you

Hi, I am not a well-known person on these forums, but I still take some time everyday to read almost every post written everyday. I've decided to start this thread due to the recent events and I hope it will make at least one of you smile.

The point here is to publicly tell people that you like him/her/them and for what reasons. This thread is about how YOU feel towards others, under no circumstances must you post others' feelings.

I like the whole forum community, because you all bring me funny threads and serious topics in big quantities. Everytime I come read things here, I end up both laughing and learning. Seriously, since I signed up on these forums I have become smarter!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

I also like how everyone is so different from each other but still get along very well (for the most part).

There IS someone I like a whole lot <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> that person is very intelligent and funny. Like this forum, everytime I see her I laugh and learn. She is also very kind and caring. You are a great friend LaFille <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Also, I like DATD, even though he isn't here anymore. He's the one that made me feel welcome here. Had he not been here then, I probably wouldn't be here now. He also opened up my mind a little when it comes to music, thanks to him I appreciate a lot of different styles of music now. You are also a great friend DATD.

a good call, Rythok. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

mr Lowkey would call this effort lame & boring as he expects real friends to tear each other's hair out & still be friends. not all friendship is on that aggressive level, ol' boy.

it may be sissy to people, it may be too girly to the macho dudes, but i like every single one of u lot! & that is why i feel hurt every time conflict comes along. because i am just THAT sensitive! close online friends know how i am but those that don't always expect things to run things the way they think it should.

in this forum, as far as i know, there is no such thing as SHOULD. we're all too different. we're all at conflict with one another at every issue. so we should be at war? we should be fighting? we should be arguing? NO! we did the SHOULD NOT; we got along very well!

yes, we are polite. maybe too polite to some that thinks this forum needs some shaking up. but because we have too many different people from all over the world, & i mean ALL OVER THE WORLD!!

please for those who are forum specialist who think otherwise, get it in yer heads! here in Larian we do things differently. we are very friendly, very warm, very weird & strange & crazy & funny, but we get along so nicely.

just because of one or two bad fruits, don't go around saying that this forum is going down to bloody hell. we have always thrive & we will.

anybody that wants to play god & ruin things for everyone, i'm gonna tear that lovely a$$ of yours.

*****************

sorry to hijack your thread like that, Rythok. but i feel that i have to say it.

i never want to see anyone leave. i have always want to see the good in everyone. i always want to believe that everyone can be good.

so please, let's move on with our beautiful lives. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

what's nice about people in this forum;

Kiya - though a long time member, she's still a very humble person, a rarity among intellects.

Barta - unpredictable in her craziness, she is witty & lovable.

Gal - so what if somebody complain about u being such & such? it's because of such & such that we love u so much!

Fille - true, for one so young she is incredibly smart yet funny. a breath of fresh air.

the SPAM gangs - Nero, Viper & Lews; people have been joking about u guys being spammers yet i always find all of u important members of this forum.

Jurak, Mea, Spick - who needs TV when u have all the funniest guys around here in this forum? i am your biggest fan!

Luc & Egin - when i made an unimportant post about feeling down, i never expected u both to respond to me & helped me through. true friends u both are to me.

& for the couple that is no longer here, u are always in my heart.

& for the rest of u, well start spamming, will u? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> i love u all too! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/kissyou.gif" alt="" />

Quite all of you don’t know me but by a very very tiny part of the iceberg… And those who know me (just a bit better) know that I am not very demonstrative and very long to tame. But I’ll take on myself this time and tell how you are through my eyes.

Rythok, you are eager to learn and discover, and do it with the open mindness and respect it deserves; and you give without expecting anything in return. These are things I have lots of respect and admiration for. It is a very nice initiative that you took to bring a bit of sun here it these dark times. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
Gal, you are whole and passionnate; your fire burns strong through the best as through the worst, and you assume yourself. To me, you must have been a wild horse before coming back on the form a delicious elven lady. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
Shantara, janggut (and Alrik, although we didn’t exchange much) I see parts of myself in you and that makes me feel close to you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
Bigclaw, you are a wonderful woman, full of goodwill, that I have lots of pleasure to get to know. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/kissyou.gif" alt="" />
Tsel, you are very nice, caring and sensible; very deep, too. It is great to rub shoulders with you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
HandEFoot you a very nice, open person too, and very creative. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> Lews, you surprise and impress me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />
There are also all of you that I read but haven’t known more yet and who make this a good place to come. Chapeau! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />
And the older members who aren’t active anymore and who drop in from time to time, your visits cheer up a good part of the community, and it is nice when you drop a hello in. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" />

I can't say good things about everyone,and I'm gonna forget a name or two, I know, but I think cool people are:

bernhard, Janggut, Fille, Alrik, Kiya, Barta, Galadriel, Jurik, myself, DATD, Rythok, HEF, Tsel, Dragh, Womble, Mslynx, JvB, Shantara, BG, Dragon Queen, Spick, Nero, Viper, Mea, Morbo, Luc, Egin, Lynn, and everyone else I missed, and I know I must have missed someone. =( I'm very sorry if I did, but I probably think you are cool too.


But I think my best friends are the ones I speak/have spoken to on MSN, because I actually learn things about them! Such as their real names, but then I need to edit my posts to put in their screenames again, heehe. But some friends I have asked to talk to them on MSN or something, and they refuse =(


Okay, I've edited this for a third time, but I just keep missing people still. I'm sorry, but I know you are out that, but I can't remember right now -(

I don't get close with many people, but I have made a number of friends here and shared good times with them. Most notably:

Mandrake, the only real-life friend I have made here (due to location mostly). A good taste in movies and games!

Lews, may have got on peoples nerves at first but has made himself a valued member of the community.

faile, great to chat with whenever available. She has been a great help to me when times have been hard and I hope I have helped her in return.

Kiya, of course! A very insightful and friendly woman. Thank you for all your help and friendship.

DATD, who I've always enjoyed chatting with and seeing his artistic talent.

janggut, a creative and sympathetic soul. I always have the upmost respect for you.

LaFille, another friendly and fun soul I enjoy chatting with.

And I enjoy the company of everyone here. I don't get as involved as many of the others, mostly due to time constraints, but this place wouldn't be worth visiting without all of you.

Enjoy!

hear hear, HEF! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

u & all the aussies are among the most wonderful people around, together with the seriously funny germans, the warm canadians, the daring americans, the chocolatey belgians ('cos i love chocolates!) & the rest of the lovable gits out there.

Lews, u see? u have impressed not just a girl, but THE girl! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

I never really got involved here, but that's in my nature. I've been a very close personality most of my life and have been opening up these last few years. I'm sure that's something to be proud of.

So even as I've been here for a long time, longer than most of I guess. Many of you I'm not really sure I havn't got that a great memory.

As part of becoming a more open person I should also compliment poeple more so here I go.

Lews: I disliked you a lot when you first came here, you were into my eyes just another spammer after postcount, but you have suprised me lately. I even want to apologize if I acted distant, dissaproving or hostile in the past.

Alrik: i've always looked upon you as a wise person, I still do. You've always been kind to everyone so far as I know and that deserves respect.

Kiya: Just as Alrik you deserve an great amount of respect.

To everyone else, you're all good persons, with interesting posts. I can't tell about everyone what I like. I would be writing this post till the evening.

There are many great members that have gone missing, Beegee, soulflyer, Faile, Carrie, to name a few... I always liked them to.

Stone > To me you are my number one friend here on this forum.
You have always been super cool (good) to me.
I wish I could speak and write German so we could laugh some more.
Oh, and I’m still working on that Model for you. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

Shantara > You are the friend I have known the longest.
You have always been there for me as a friend.
You befriended me when I was without friends.
Thank you for everything.

Alrik > You have been an inspiration to me and I still pray for you that the job market will open up for you so you can enjoy your occupational dreams.

Janggut > Every time I needed a helping hand to pull me out of oblivion you were always there for me, thank you.

GlanceALot > Thank you so much for your wise words of wisdom; I have found them to be of the utmost value.

MASTER_GUROTH > I value your point of views and the science you bring. I wish you were still around.

Ub > I consider you a friend too. Thank you for always being a cool dude.

Barta > I do not know why, but for some reason a wedge divided us. I miss our joking and you telling me not to look at the dog. Also, thank you for caring when crisis hit me.

Jurak > Where’s an abstract witty comment when I need one? You’ve become a ghost. I miss your off topic humor my friend.

Bigclaw6 > I never in my life expected anyone to understand that Hungarian post I made. I posted it mainly for inner humor to myself, but you understanding it brought a larger bouquet of laughter to that post. Thank you for being you and being my friend.

Lynx > What can I say, you are very, very funny. Who says Germans are not funny. Thank you for the laughter.

LaFille > You seem to always sense when I am down in the dumps, which is almost everyday. Thank you for caring.

Gal > You are always sweet and kind and have been there always with kind words when I was down. Don’t loose that sweetness. It is what I like most about you.

LUC > Thank you so much for understanding my darkness; yes, I do seek to always maintain the balance between darkness and light, you are of the few who seems to understand my particular views, thank you.

Rythok > You say you have learned a lot on this forum, I have learned a thing or two from you. Treasure can sometimes be found in the most unexpected places. Thank you.

DATD > You are the very first person I ever talked to on this forum. You tried to help me with my moving chests problem in DD, but I thought you were playing with me. I later understood what you meant, thank you.

Dragh > Yes, you are right; you are a hard egg to crack. You do not open up very much at all, but I continue to reach out in friendship; because, you are a fellow Metal Head like me. In America, that is almost like a brotherhood.

Spick > I won’t say which post, but one of your posts touched me a great deal in a good way man. Thank you, thank you so very much.

Egin > We have always communicated off and on via PM. I have really enjoyed the talks. Thank you for being you.

Kiya > We have only just gotten to know one another, but I humbly thank you so very much, for all of the invaluable help you have been giving to me in my darkness. If more people were as self-sacrificing as you this world would be a much better place.

HEF > I know you don’t realize it, but you and I are a lot alike, and we have gone through similar ordeals, that alone has given me an internal camaraderie with you.
Thank you, it tells me I am not alone.

Lews > One of my few American friends here on this forum; you too have brought me laughter without you realizing it, thank you.

MeaCulpa > I consider you friend; because, every time I ask you a serious question, you give me a humorous reply, but if one looks closer and deeper into your reply, one finds a spiritual revelation hidden inside. Well done and thank you.

Womble > Man, if you and I got together, we would tic off a lot of people with our George Carlin sense of humor, it’s good to see and know someone with a cynical sense of humor like me. Thanks man for being a friend.


I apologize for those I missed.
I apologize for the length of this post.
But I wanted you specific people to know, I think of you as friends.
Maybe not, buddy, buddy real life close friends, but friends nonetheless.
To you all and those I have missed, thank you for being a friend to me
when I needed a friend.

Tsel <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I love this Forum, i love it for the few good Friends i found here, and for the possibility that i can get more friends.
Maybe i`m not the Member who really search this friendships here, i`m more carefull and reservedly. And rarely i write PMs to other Members first. I think the reason for this are buried in my past, but anyway.
I love this Forum, and thats include all Members, also the Members with wich i maybe not gonna go and drink a beer. It is the spectrum of different people, different opinions and the different ways to see this World.
And i love this Forum for the great fun, and joy wich can be found here.



Edit

Hi Tsel <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wave.gif" alt="" /> good to see you here <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

p.s.
I will not post a list of the particular Members here, the people who knowing me, know that they are good friends for me. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Oh boy Rythok...I dont know...us make someone smarter... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" /> you may want to check your facts... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/delight.gif" alt="" />

and the list begins...mind you Ive been out of touch for quite a while so this is going to be shorter than most lists but as a bonus everyone gets a superhero alter ego

@Lews...we were the dynamic duo of Spam...and as much as I hate to consider myself Robin you truly are batman!

@Dragh dude you crack me up <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" /> with no question The Human Torch

@Kiya for making me relize I was a Forum newb (and I was this was my first forum) thanks! And for making me realize I had at least a little talent for writing! Im thinking Jean Gray..Phoenix yep...

@Viper The most open forum poster ever, I still laugh at the whole one ring wedding ring thing you are my favorite superhero spiderman...dorky but helpful and hey you won the girl

@Woble...I dont know what to say you are beyond me hence...the Thing

@Lynn If you were a super heroin youd be the even hand of Forum Justice! Wonder Woman

@JVB whom I havent seen in a while but is apparently omniscient (I logged in for like 3 minutes one day during my sabbatical and he PMed me)...The Flash

@Jurak my favorite orc... The Hulk...its the green thing

@Faile my MIA friend...I really wish we had gotten a chance to hang out in MPLS but it never happened, are there any pirate superhero's?

@DQueen Havent seen this girl in ages but she was always helpful and fun catwoman

@BG havent seen this goofy little imp in ages either...but fooping and poofing...That was litterally some of the funniest writing I have ever had the enjoyment to read ...but man imps are to small to be superheros!...but you could fly so lets go with superman!

Ok I know I left some of you out Jaggnut and Alrik and hande and Morbo and more I am sure...just dont know you well enough to give you a superhero tag (which is probably good because I was running out of superheros) but Ill work on it.

I also mentioned many people that have disappeared from the forum but we had good times and I still remember! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

as an after thought I should say that I like some ppl more than others but hey ... that's life :hugs all:

I'm gonna try to honor everyone, but don't shoot me if I forget anyone!!
Lady Rain
I like you because you are something like my soulmate. I love your South African spirit and your joy for life!

Merendrious
We share the same interest, movies, so that is mostly what we talk about. But between the lines you are a nice guy, with a honest spirit.

Shantara
You are just made to love. There is not a single soul here on the forum that is sweeter then you.

Lafille
I love you for the interesting conversations we have, the fighter that lives inside you, the spiritual feelings we share for Native American cultures and the wolves. If we were the only two living creatures here on earth, we would be howling on top of a mountain side by side. (after we had a very good lunch <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> )

Janggut
You represent the "Zen" on this forum. You keep peace and serenity high in your standard, I'm glad I have a tiny place in your Malaysian heart.

Kiya
Allthough we only met a few weeks ago, I already noticed the ancient wisdom of the dragon that is inside you. I do hope that the peace has returned in the old dragonheart.

Übereill & Lews
I love you both for your youth, your swift reactions, allthought sometimes a little over the top, but what the heck, you guys are young, before you know you have to be serious all the time. But when I talk to you in pm, you both seem a lot more mature than.

Tsel
I'm so glad I have you as my friend. You can put things so beautiful, that that you really have to read to see what you mean. I love you for what you are, please don't change into a cynical person.

Alrik
I also met you just a few weeks ago, but we shared so many pm's by now, that I really have the feeling that I know you a little better. I'm glad I met you too.

Kejero
We share lots of laughs and music, you become very close to me, my curly friend. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

Shyon
You are a very sweet guy, with the heart of a brazilian. Warm, full of passion and playfull. I hope to see you back very soon!

Mea Culpa
You gave me good advice, without asking anything in return. It's never mea culpa for you. You only do good here.

Jurak
You are a very nice guy, with the heart on the right place. You make my day with your funny jokes, and I like the way you turn everything into something funny with your jokes.

Womble
Where is the cuddliest bear of the whole world? We miss you!!

I think I will stop here, because otherwhise this will drag on too long.
For all the rest, Egin, Barta, Viper, Lady Sarah, Rhytok, Raze, Lynn, Plowking, DATD, Dragh, Bean, Lucretia, Happyflower, HanEFood, Stone, Spick and Bernhard, I just like to say, you being here makes the forum. the sphere, the cosyness, the spirit and the fun. This forum wouldn't be what it is today without you guys!
I will place a song for everyone in the "fav. lyrics". Check it out!!

Most of my beloved ones in here, know how much and why I love them. You also know what special, magical things I find inside each one of you. So there is nothing more to say to you than that I missed you, I like you the way you are and um... I love you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I like everyone who's nice.
Mainly Ube as he's made me feel most welcome to this forum.
You're all great.

Catty <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

See I don't even know you.

Luc has already said everything about friendship love.

I don't want to give a list of names because it would be too long and boring and i would forget some names. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

On the other side the people who would not read their name in this topic might think that nobody loves them. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />
And it's untrue !

So i will only name one member.
I like you Rythok. Don't ask me why, i don't know !
The loving feelings can't be explained.

I can quote Montaigne about his friendship with La Boétie :
"Parce que c'était lui, parce que c'était moi."

Translation : "Because it was him, because it was me."

Barta


PS : I followed Gal's exemple and i added a song in the topic My Fav Lyrics

There's only a few people I know here, and I'll probably STILL forget to mention some. Ugh.

*Flower power mode on*

Polgara -- No words necessary I take it <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />

Viper -- You're open and spontanious, more people should be like that. You're cool, dude!

Faile -- Because I know you love flower power too, I'll put your name in bold, and in capitals. FAILE!

Kiya -- Again, I don't think words are necessary <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Gal -- Everything you said back at ya! Except for the curly hair. Still, my sunglasses are cooler <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Luc -- How could I NOT like you? You are likeable, likeable is you <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Alrik -- We don't really know eachother or have had that much contact, but you're a good guy. I associate your name instantly with the Larian Forums. Also, Alrik is like ALMOST an anagram of Larian!

Last but not least I'd like to mention Lynn, who's always managed these forums in a very correct and diplomatic way. She's doing a hell of a job (besides the forum as well!) and she's doing it with a smile!

*Flower power mode off*

PS: No sarcasm was intended with the flower power phrase. I just needed to switch to that mode to be able to drop my sarcasm.

PS2: Nothing against flower power! If it wasn't for that, there wouldn't have been seventies like that. And thanks to that, we now have the "That 70's Show"! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

PS3: Said to be coming in beginning 2006!!!!!111 But I'm not really a console fan, so I don't really care.
