Or, for that matter, if you can remember when Paizo could use slaads in its publications, as was the case when the slaad thread began.

It's ironic that the forums still abound with slaads, when they haven't been seen in a Paizo publication in years.

You remember when James Jacobs still dropped spoilers in Tuesday night Chat.

It does provide an additional challenge to your leveled up super-sleuthing skills.

...You have the Tu'narath City Guide as an item on your downloads page (great supplement, then and now).

I made my account in 2006, but I first started lurking around the boards back in 2004/05. In '04 and '05, I was still in high school.

Yes, mental ability score drain is frequently a symptom of long-term OTD use. ;)

Its funny how your mind associates the poster avatar with the person. Even after meeting adam in person, i still associate him with the mantis.

Random fact(or maybe its an opinion :D) the module that avatar comes from is one of the best ever. The rival party concept was not only awesome but executed flawlesly.

Well actually...:
My first ever handle online back in the early 90s was Mantis, and as soon as I turned 18 I got a mantis tattoo on my calf (that I drew myself). So, I actually associate with the mantis avatar more than my current flumph.

Huh. So, after reading all this... I am now convinced I am not a Paizo veteran.

I guess I'll just wait a few more years.

When your primary username has served you as a nickname longer than some posters have been alive.

I guess I qualify, then. There was a certain feast featured in a very special adventure...

And I have the various Beta rules printed out and bought the Alpha rules as a printed book (or vice versa?).

Otherwise, if you remember the time when one of the last Dungeon Mags (or was it Dragon? Damn, my memory is failing me...) got lost with a british gaming company, who should have shipped them to European subscribers. They were re-shipped from the US later, at no additional cost.

Or the time when Lisa stepped in to replace a good number of mags to a guy who had them stolen out of his car - for free!


At least one poster on these forums was in elementary school when I started posting.

Alternately, going through one's oldest posts and cringing at the rantings of an angsty youngster who knew nothing about anything.

You fought in the "Paizo is still undecided if 4E" thread. Double points if you exchanged broadsides with Scott Betts.

Alternatively, you ignored the living daylights out of that thread because you could see the firestorm it was doomed to become.

Hmmm... So, I may be a veteran after all. I have had enough broadsiding with Scott Betts, indeed. =)

That sounds like a euphemism for a sex act, although I have no idea how that would work.


It does sound inconvenient, CH.

I remember the body-count that a CR half or one third or something ridiculous like that encounter kept on racking up in The Whispering Cairn because actually in 3.5 swarms are disproportionately dangerous to 1st level characters without area effect options like flasks of burning oil...

Edit:
Ahem. Just to clarify, not characters that I personally bounced by the dozen, but which others reported on the boards...

You realize that Eberron will one day be the default setting for D&D, and thus all adventures not set in Eberron should be easily convertible into Eberron with minimal changes.

You can remember when Sebastian's avatar was a cranky looking dwarf from an Eberron adventure.
