I leave here for a year or so, and when i come back everythings changed?!?

Anyone sum up what the hell is going on around here for an old timer like me?

About time i used some of those old credits i still got...

Don't think i've played since about R16, might even be R15, but i could be convinced to waste a few hours here and there

Would be nice to see some old faces again.

emux · 29 Mar 2007, 15:29

Ali · 29 Mar 2007, 17:29

I vaguely remember a Brimstone, do I know you?

Gimmick · 29 Mar 2007, 19:00

He was in 1up

The Real Arfy · 29 Mar 2007, 19:14

Smudge · 29 Mar 2007, 21:01

Bowlsey · 29 Mar 2007, 21:05

Tho nice to see Lokken is still around

lokken · 29 Mar 2007, 21:35

pa is still awesome

you have to be in the right alliance though

Bowlsey · 29 Mar 2007, 21:50

lol, and what might that be? Haven't decided whether to join an alliance or to just annoy as many people as possible

Brimstone · 30 Mar 2007, 00:16

Memory is getting a little foggy now, but as memory serves, I was in IPC from R5-10.5, then NewDawn for a few rounds, F-Crew sproradically when i got bored, then i played for 1up, LCH, and im sure there was another alliance in there somewhere someone will probably hit me with a stick for forgetting.

Not to mention a short stint helping out the PA team, and winning the PA War-song contest

Appocomaster · 30 Mar 2007, 00:46

You were in NoS from May 10 (or earlier) to June 7 (or later) according to my IRC logs. Think that was around r12-r13.

A2 · 5 Apr 2007, 01:45

Aye Aye Brimstone

iirc you were from Dunstable and once posted a pic of yourself wearing bright purple trousers

(I remember random stuff - don't be too scared)

Virall · 5 Apr 2007, 16:07

Yo Brimstone.

noah02 · 5 Apr 2007, 18:29

Gate · 5 Apr 2007, 23:09

Didn't I accidentally get all your claymores killed in r10.5?

Barrow|Pony · 6 Apr 2007, 05:27

if gate didnt kill your ships, i probably did.

Clunge · 6 Apr 2007, 09:50

Woo, I suppose I could be classed as an old fogie now too...

Though I am entirely unknown in the world of PA

I have to admit to playing at this time, R9 was the last I think, and yes I can see all the changes.

Where did covert opps come from.

Still another intresting level

A steep learning curve for us adled old fogies

Glad not to be alone.

Wow amassing to see Planetarion still going, it was a old thread i'd subscribed to in 2004 that got a reply that got my curiosity up to check its still running.

Nice to see your still playing Brimstone, I'm sure you remember me

For those of you that don't, I'm a R1 player part of the PACrew (as it was called then) one of my responsibilities being 'Multihunting' no idea what its like these days, but in my day it was nothing unusual to delete in excess of 1,000 accounts a week for the 'Multi' offence (among many others you all seem determined to keep us busy with

) and I was only 1 among 6 others who were deleting the same or more numbers........ but in those days we had hundreds of thousands playing, the record for one person, from memory was in excess of 30,000 accounts, this was held by a BT engineer who as a result of an investigation lost his job! Amassing the lengths some people would go to eh

Well as i said nice to see PA going and going strong take care all
