Watch all of it. lol.

It was a mixture of real life and video game.

I was in a Grand Theft Auto-ish game. I was a created character that I made in Saints Row 2. It was James Rolfe a.k.a Angry Video Game Nerd.
And this guy



Ryan Reynolds.

He was a dick. He would do things just to try and piss me off. I say try because I see what's he's trying to do, but I'll just look at him emotionless as he's being loud and telling me what we're going to do (explaining the mission).

It was like the movie Groundhogs Day.

It always starts out with me walking out of a store building.
And Ryan Reynolds was in a different store building making calls to the police. Telling the operator that I'm doing something or doing something to him...and whatever that thing was, it's not enough to get me arrested, but more so to piss off the operator.

One instance, he was in a bowling ally telling the operator that I said "The F-word" to him. At this point, the operator is aware that who was calling due to how many times he's done this and the lady is having a laugh while Ryan sounds really serious about it.

Every 911 prank ends and he walks out of the store I just happen to be near where he was. And we talk about a mission. We're walking to an apartment and discussing plans. Most of the time he would explain it then go off track and start rambling about something not relevant.

Then the dream skips to our destination. Stuff happens. Then the dream skips with me walking out of the building and here comes another 911 prank.

I remember being in Costa Rica, in the jungle, riding on a boat. We're on land, but eventually got separated and I'm running away from enemies for being an outsider in their territory. Turns out Ryan is fine in a complete safe spot waiting for me while I'm badly bruised and need help.

Right after this particular mission, the game glitched? And revert us back to an old mission, like two missions back. I was confused, until right before the mission start, he says something like "It's time to do this! ....again" while being happy and loud about it.

I love the reused dialogue and accompanying animation. Oh, and the voice of Tail, as well.

The VGDC Forums (not counting the original Geocities site) have been around, albeit many different versions, for nearly 12 years.

With maybe an exception of a few, I would say it's likely the majority of us were still going through high school in the heyday of this place.

But now 12 years later, past high school and past college, what do we do professionally outside of surfing the web and visiting forums?

In my case, some of you may remember my threads about being laid off and lack of good luck in the job market.

Well, I've actually been fortunate enough to have a steady job now (making decent money too) for about the last year and a half, and it's actually an interesting job too.

I'm a fraud analyst. I monitor debit and credit card accounts for hundreds of banks/credit unions (thousands upon thousands of cardholders) across the United States and Canada (including Puerto Rico and even Aruba). I work for a fraud monitoring company that all these banks/credit unions contract out to.

Believe me when I say it's quite amazing just how much the general public does not know about the severity of credit/debit card fraud and what exactly these criminals can do, outside of what the media reports about things like the Target data breach and The Home Depot data breach.

Basically, I'm the guy on the other side of the phone you're talking to if your card issuer contacts you (really, it's us, the contracted agency). For those who have never had a call like this, I simply run down the list of recent activity, and you tell me yes or no to if you did each transaction. If you answer no to any one transaction, your card gets canceled, and you're referred to work with your bank/credit union. If you answer yes to all of them, then your card gets unblocked and everybody goes along their merry ways. Some are very grateful for the protection, others not so much because they're simply too ignorant to realize what we're doing and all they can think about is that they just got declined at Wal-Mart and they, for some reason, care deeply about what total strangers think of them. Again, that goes back to what I said before about the general public being kept in the dark.

The most incredible calls that I get, however, are the impersonators. Especially the ones that are calling from overseas and digitally altering their voices. The most hilarious ones are the obvious males with thick accents, from wherever it is the fraud is being attempted, digitally altering their voices to sound like an American female. The end result makes them sound like someone messing around with the pitch settings on Microsoft Sound Recorder, or Alvin the Chipmunk, or Gizmo from Gremlins, etc.

But as funny as those calls are, they're also deeply troubling. Not only did they just attempt a $7,000+ transaction using a counterfeited card at some electronics store in the Netherlands, but now they're calling us trying to impersonate the cardholder, and they know the cardholder's social security number, date of birth, phone numbers, and physical address.

Yeah.

It's a scary world out there.

Since launch or whenever you got the game. How do you feel at this point in your Destiny career?
