Exactly. Most people who actually play the game didn't even visit BZU.

I beg to differ. Many I talked to in the game knew what BZU was and read it often. They however did not register or post because they felt it was too far above them to do so. A mentality I personally blame on the divide of those who play for fun and those who claim to be elite, even when those who play for purely fun are the largest body.

I play all the time and I visited BZU a ton, but most of the people I saw on BZU I never saw in game. Like you, Nielk1. I've never seen you online, I don't think.

You saw me online.
I've seen:
Blue Banana
AHadley
Sabre Tank
Vearie
Purplehaze
Major Manson
Fulmen
General Blackdragon
and some others that I'm too lazy to mention.

Yeah I suppose you are right.
NIELK1 GET ON PL0X.

I've also seen Zero Angel before and Greenheart, but I don't even know what the hell happened to them.

Bear in mind lots of people play with different names.

That's a good point...

I think that's kind of dumb. Of course, I used to be Marshmallow.

Depends on your perspective. I don't play using this nick anymore for two reasons.

1: Too many imposters running around. I don't need anyone ruining my sparkling reputation.

2: Most people who knew me by this name are gone.

Last time I played, I used this name.

Okay, let me re-phrase myself:

The people who actually play the game never were so active on BZU/BZF that they'd literally check for posts every 5 minutes or always have BZU in the background (though I have to congratulate these boards for some of the fastest replies I've ever seen on any forums).

And by actually playing I mean more than a couple of times a year.

I REMEMBER YOU. I have ALWAYS remembered you. I'm like, "What ever happened to that guy..." If I remember correctly I remember playing Forgotten Enemies with you. Of coruse back then I probably under the name Slayer or Marshmallow.

But you probably don't remember me, do you, ALIAS?

Don't know if APCs remembers, but I do recall some Slayer guy playing quite a bit a long time ago (2004'ish)...

How do you know you have not played with me in a game already? Granted it would not have been this month. I have been far far far too busy.

None of you have my IP on file do you? Or the high bandwidth VPN for my university.

I think I have one of your IPs. So do a few others.

EDIT: Nvm, apparently I don't.

I remember you quite well. Almost makes me want to change back to my old name which was GENERAL MANSON. Ah the good old days of 1.2, FE 1.2 and espically where you could play on AI team in 1.2
