I was abandoned here under the Safe Haven Law for newbees.

Are you an Ex UOer? If not then the Safe Haven ref is pure coincidence:P

I actually cannot recall how I first ended up here. I have a vague recollection of a friend of mine (ex-guildmate from when I was into gaming) telling me about some forum that he used to go on and wind people up pretending to be a really right-wing, neo-con type. Not sure, but that might have been the Cellar he was talking about.

That's why I sometimes suspect people like UG of being fake:P

That may be why I came here......or it might not...i can't recall.


What I do recall, is that I was living on my own for the first time, had also fallen off the gaming circuit, and was trawling the internet, fairly bored, on a fairly regular basis. Either way, I ended up in the Cellar, at a time when I was most in need of an easily accessible and engaging community. What was strange about the Cellar, was that unlike most forums I'd meandered through, the Cellar drew me back. It feels not dissimilar to the kind of dynamic involved in some gaming communities, rather than the usual forum dynamic.
