    [​IMG] Shralp arrived at my front door, looking weary and shriveled, and pleaded that I let him use my PC. When I said no, he pointed a gun to my head...:aaa:

    :grin:

    Seriously though, I was searching for BG Sites and Settled on this one.

    Waay back in BG1 days, I came here looking for a walk through, and I found it along with tons of other cool stuffs. But I never looked on the forums. I came back here last January when I got BG2 and was once again impressed by all the cool stuff, I discovered the boards over the summer of last year, and lurked until I registered in October. That's my history with SP.

    After surfing the net for a while I found a link to the BG2 forum on a site called ga-rpg.com. I took me a while to figure out there were more forums and after a while longer I found the whole Sorcerer's Place.

    I was browsing the net for portraits, and surfed to almost every link to BG-related sites I came across...

    I'd say I came because of either BG1 or Torment. Most likely Torment, that was a game I loved enough to want to do as much as I could with it. I show up whenever a new AD&D game comes out, then stay for a few months. (This is the best place for questions on the games covered here, by far)

    I'm not sure what I'm doing here now. :idea: Maybe it's to try all the smileys that have appeared since last I checked! :rolling:

    I surfed in here looking for D&D spells which I don't think I ever finished looking for.

    I first came here after I typed "AD&D" in the yahoo search bar...
    But I didn't stay for long...

    Then I got BG2 and, after having some problems with the game, I somehow stumbled again onto this site and found out it had a nice message board.
    Now, on this nice board there were some nice people who nicely helped me with my problems concerning in-game problems...

    As a sign of my eternal gratitude, I have sworn to stay here and pest their lives until the very end of existance!! :evil:

    I found my way to the site by-oh its a long story. When I was about your age, I set off on a journey. I went to find the Princess (of course) she had been stolen by a bad gamer named Doug Shroudedcloak the infamous Popper of Zits!...
    To make a long story short-I was informed by...a source of incredible knowledge and pessimism.

    [​IMG] I was looking for info on the first BG game and did a web search on Yahoo. I followed the link to SP and the rest is history. Tal didn't even have the boards up then and the site looked totally different. Much has changed in the past two years.
