Hey everyone!

Honestly I don't even know how to start. Before I began to write this post, I pretty much had a short story in my head, going through all the events since I've been active here. Ultimately I decided I won't bore you with that. Just a short version.

I used to be pretty active. This community helped me through some hard times. I was depressed, had no job, all that kind of stuff. I was sitting on my butt all day, playing and modding New Vegas, and hanging out here for hours sometimes. It was my escape, and it really helped. People started to recognize my name, I even started my own little projects. Lots of stuff happened after that. Moved to another country, started a new job, a new life basically. I really don't want to go into details though.

Recently I found my way back to New Vegas. So I thought I should check out what's going on here nowdays. Feels good to see this familiar site. I don't know if I'll be able to stick around for a longer period of time, my life is really different now. But I'll try.

See you all!

welcome back to the fold. Glad to hear you are doing better with real life now too. Always a bonus.

Welcome back to the campfire friend! Glad to hear that you've been handed a better hand or made what you got win.

Thanks guys, really appreciate it.

Welcome back, It's nice to see that you've been able to re-establish your life and make things work out. You're always welcome here.

Thank you, it's great to be back. I'm amazed by the amount of great quality mods released while I was gone. The community also didn't change at all. Friendly and welcoming.

Welcome back again, pleasure to meet you, i hope you are now much better now and you enjoy new vegas which is an amazing game all time (better than new fallout 76)

Enjoy and have a good day!

@scrab20

It's hard not to enjoy NV. I'm also giving Fallout 4 a proper go this time. I could never get into it for some reason, tried twice, deleted it after a few hours both times. This time it's actually growing on me. I needed 30-40 hours with it, before I started to appreciate it, and I just had to accept the fact that it's more of an action game instead of a "hardcore" RPG.

Thanks for stopping by, have a great day mate!

Welcome back, same here, returning after a long break (parenthood), I couldn't even play fo4 dlcs.

@Nochance

Well, that's a good reason to take a break. So right back at you then, welcome back!

Hey Drutar, im in same boat as you, mega active at one point, good bit looking back now 0.0 but met alot of close mates on here, met alot of crazies too ha, nice to see you back, and love the banner, im a Thulsa Doom man myself, no homo but he's boss (untill the end) ha

@Ashi Itachi

Thanks mate! Glad you're back too then. Yeah I'm a huge Conan fan, although I'm more crazy about the original stories than the movies. Basically they have nothing to do with Howard's Conan. But I still like the movies for what they are. Especially the music, and some iconic scenes, they are inseparable from the "Conan universe".

@Drutar I made the mistake of watching the latest Conan this year after years of telling myself not to, can honestly say i hate myself for doing so as it was pure garbage 0.o Do you have the audio books of Howard's work? if not i can hook you up with them for free if you like, Beyond the black river was one of my favs

Think i remember you......My memory isn't that good as it used to be but we joined around the same time. Good to see you return tough!

@Fidller Is that my fiddy i see before me?!

@Fidller

Yeah, maybe. Looking at the join dates, I wouldn't be surprised if we used to reply to each other's posts all the time, I'm also having a hard time remembering all the specific user names. I remember the hard-core veterans of course, I mean those who were already veterans 5 years ago. Looks like you're a veteran yourself by now. Thanks for the welcome.

@Ashi Itachi

Watching that movie was a mistake allright. Why'd you do it nine years after it's release? I mean you probably avoided it this long for a reason. Anyway I actually watched it in the cinema when it came out, I was really excited. It was a huge dissapointment, but it's still hard for me to hate that movie. I was a senior in high school, I took a girl with me to see it. That girl is going to be my wife now.
To answer your question, I don't have any Conan audio books, so how I could I say no to that offer? I have the hardback version of the "Complete Chronicles" tho, I just rarely ever touch it. I usually read in bed, so any book I take with me is at God's mercy after I fall asleep. that book is just too nice for that.

@Drutar Ha congrats fella! yeah i should of stayed away but bordom got the better of me, i mean dont get me wrong Conan the destroyer (1984) was bad, but i liked it for its cheesyness ha but that movie was something entirely diff! and here you go fella, free downloads to all of Robert E. Howard's works, its all in the public domain, admins so dont come down on me! its not Conan related, but i highly suggest the audio books by William Hope Hodgson, House on the borderlands and The night land, good stuff! anyways here you go fella, enjoy !

Yeah, Destroyer was cheesy as Hell, but it had a charm to it. Not a good movie, but still enjoyable.
Thanks a lot, I'll make sure to check those out as well.
