1/2 decade

Post by Lud »

As of yesterday, I have been at TR for over five years. It's been a long ride, from lurking on the forums posting sporadic stupidity, to starting my modding life working on ints, moving into reviewing and eventually HoR, switching to a focus on quests and getting map1 finally battered into shape (Making the release post at ESF was a highlight), stepping down from leadership, moving onto the MQ and to my current role as lurker and the guy who doesn't update the MQ often enough. (Sorry Haplo! I'll have another update for you soon)

All in all, I've had a lot of good times here and have never ceased to be impressed by this community and its boundless creativity.

Here's to you guys! :mrgreen:

wow, doesn't feel like it has been that long (which it hasn't since you joined before me, but it still doesn't feel like that long either)

Congrats, Lud. That's quite an achievement! Here's to many more years.

Seriously, congrats for your five years at TR and don't worry for that. I always appreciate what you do, keep up the good work.

You know what's also popular? Enormous flying cities and ridable dragons. Maybe TR should invest in navigable ships and underwater cities.

I know, that is because people don't read entire threads when posting, if it is something like an anniversary thread. They simply read the first post, ignore everyone else, then post their own congratulations.

Nemon really should have made his own thread, but now I have evidence that I could totally call people things in anniversary threads and no one would notice.
