Oh man that avy brings back memories lol

Nope. But that's normal around here, they come for a bit, and they never return.

Decided to come back and take a look. That avatar was a nice welcome surprise that I completely forgot about. On a side note I was going through an old hard drive I had and found a lot of old assets from the old Vbulletin board backup which is full of the art for the forum itself, titles, awards etc. I could dump them all here if anyone wants a nostalgia-gasm.

And yes I didn't stick around because well, the thread didn't go anywhere and nobody was talking except for weapons sarcastic responses. Honestly if you guys want a place to thrive you gotta engage like you used to, whether or not that happens is up to you guys.

I dabble in animating in Flash.

Mostly fake Mortal Kombat Fatalities

Made my first full Flash movie last year parodying the video game "Destiny"

I learned to color











So what's up with you??

sadly flash and web forums are dying out thanks to social media

I have been and continue to be busy in my current life. Obviously I have moved on, I work in IT, I have been boxing as a hobby for the past few years and still fucking swear like a mother fucker but not in the workplace of course. Have a girlfriend (had many prior, if this thing I have learned in my 20's its always give the girl or what/whoever you are seeing a year or two before you get serious), also at the time of the last version of the old forums I was engaged when Randy was alive but it didn't work out which is good because now I feel I was too young and dumb for that kind of commitment.

As for gaming, I keep up on that still, ps4/wii u/PC said fuck it to the xbone. Mostly game on the PC though. Have hardly touched my PS4 honestly unless I watch movies on netflix or something.

As far as this forum goes. I looked into it, why not install a plugin that turns the forum into a mobile friendly interface? There are apps that will work with plugins that will send notifications of new replies and etc to the forum and you can also post on your phone. The reason social networks are more popular is because nobody goes to websites to do any online social thing anymore. That's why social media has taken over, they embraced and immediately put themselves out there via apps on smart phones and everyone is glued to those things so posting from a smart phone app would definitely get people to interact more here.

Nice fatalities and colouring there weapon. Reminds me of when I used to do flash animation I haven't touched the program in years. Keep it up and remember to export them into proper sized videos. you could get popular on Youtube sooner or later.

That's about all I got today. I will look into getting those assets from the old forum into a zip and maybe throw it up tonight.
