Where Are They Now? 2/13/11 10:36 AM
I have been on this site for WAY too long. Five and a half years to be precise. During that time many characters have appeared then departed. Some were great at games.... some got a bit lippy on the blogs....some were totally outrageous. Some were all three.
It's Sunday afternoon and I am feeling a little nostalgic, so I thought it might be interesting to celebrate the dearly (or not so dearly) departed. I like lists. Here is a list.It's of the names of those who for me at least made an impact and made King.com the Bedlam of the PC games world.
These names are randomly placed, so no winners and no losers. Having said that, viewers can be the judge. So....here we go. Please feel free to add at will.
1. Darkdwaggie - an absolute legend ! Splendid at games, but woe betide anyone who beat him....you'd pay for it in the blogs ! YOU WERE JUST LUCKY !!!! Sorely missed, though....
2. Silent Hill - ah, our Antipodean chum. Also very good at games, but armed to the teeth with a sense of humour to die for. I think he disappeared into the outback with his belovered Jess (no relation to Postman Pat's black and white cat) to start a dingo farm.
3. Trixilixi - no relation to our very own Trixiza (fortunately). This one gave many people nightmares with her eloquent messages of less than good cheer. Rumour now has it that she is doing audio books... the proof reader has his/her work cut out removing the expletives. Either that or she is knitting barbed wire underpants for M & S.
4.Bren - one of the original Topic Twisters. He had a rather unfortunate perversion.... supported Manchester United. Last heard of in a Salford Rehab Clinic having to repeat the phrases " Wayne Rooney is just a big puff" and "Carlos Tevez is the handsomest man in football" over and over again .
5. Kongsan - ever step in something you shouldn't have? That's what reading a blog by this literary genius felt like. One had to admire his perseverance though.... he even had a set of aliases to fool us, but unfortunately his lack of decent grammar and total inability to spell always gave him away. How I'd love to challenge THIS comedian to a game of Keyword.....
That's it for now. I am sure that I have forgotten some, but it's OK for you lot to remind me of others...
Thank you for reading.

Just leaving you a space to make a comment or two if you want to, still miss your witty banter..... slainte Sile
Thanks. King is what it is.... just profit orientated, no respect for anyone unless they cough money up. Hey Ho.
I do understand that...really! And maybe that is a good thing, if being productive somewhere else...but we DO miss you! now Uncle Goat has joined you....sad, very sad!
So Goat has gone the same way. Shame - he really was one of the good guys.
You're right...I told everyone after that last batch of crap from Old Fool....he's made it personal for some reason!! You always backed Fool, just spoke out against king...but OF sounded like he was "personally pissed"..and clearly it is THEIR issue...fully aware of that!!
Thing is, barb, the longer I am away from this site the less I miss it (friends excepted).
Miss you too, sugar!
Hey there, Hi there, Ho there!! Not so happy as can be..... :-((( - Just popped over to say...we miss you!! so sorry King is being such Shites about this!! Sucks!!
While I appreciate all the support, the fact remains that King has blatantly lied (especially in the blog where questions were asked) about why I am no longer on this site. I only criticised King, never called anyone else. They just can't take it, so invent stuff... that's how lovely they are.
Just checking in here to see the latest comments:-)) xx
Here's a comment for you - you are playing games on a site run by cretins fuelled by corporate greed and nothing else. They do not care for a single member on this site, except for those throwing money at them.
