Hi Guys, welcome to my 1500'th post. You're probably all like whoop-dee-doo, 1500, get to 2000 loser. If that’s you, read on. Hi Guys, welcome to my 1500'th post. You are probably going to keep reading it, to see all the amusing things I have to say here. If that's you, read on. I spent much time on this, so please read it all. If not, go to my dedications at the bottom of the post(s) Let's start at the beginning of my "ForgeHub" career. I was browsing "teh interwebz" when I found FlemProductions, ForgeHub's official Forging 101. There, I marveled at all the things I could not do in Forge previous to this wonderful discovery. I sat there playing all these wonderful maps, amazed at what a difference this was compared to Bungie Favorites (I know, right?). While on my computer, when I also discovered this wondrous site called H3artificer. They told me, "Forge, look how many really cool things you can make!" They were the ones who really got me back into Forging. I combined the two, and started Forging real maps, like my wonderful sticky wars map, and my amazing Foundry "Wait-for-the-stuff-to-spawn-so-you-can-run-away-from-the-zombies-who-get-released-by-waiting-for-something-else-to-spawn (of course, courtesy Forging 101). At that time, I had so much fun on those maps, and when I look back, they were worse than all those maps on Sandtrap with the zombies at fastest speed, and lowest gravity combined. I learned what double posting is, and what necro-posting is, the hard way, of course. I got all my infractions in the beginning from Randle Scandal, who BTW HAS THE SAME BIRTHDAY AS ME TYVM I really got into ForgeHub, when I started meeting the regulars, and knowing who they were. I felt like a nuisance to everyone, sucking up to them, asking them for favors here and there. I also started asking the member, "a pmp nmd slkbk" to help me forge. "Help me forge please plz please pmp please plz please." Was me everyday. At least that’s what I think. So, I started doing my usual thing, looking at maps, commenting thoughtfully, (to a point, not Pegasi Delta style, yet still not, "Great map, needs more interlocking, 5/5") suggesting what I would improve. I remember getting excited like crazy when I got my cavalier rank; that was a huge hump for me, and it was pure joy. So, this was my time of crazy lunatic posting, I wanted to be the first on everything (you know, to get noticed...) and I wanted to post good (you know, to get noticed..again). So then, I believe people started seeing me around on the forums more often, and thought who's this kid. So I started being a regular here, being obsessed (mildly saying it) with ForgeHub, and all its cool features and users. Now, here comes my "being-a-**** faze". From there, to around exterminator/ranger ranks, I was acting badly towards a few select people, for no select reason. You see, I have some problems in my life currently, and around the end of July, early August, I was scheduled to go back to my mother's home. This being very stressful, I took it out on some of you guys, and I apologize, I really do. Some people named that I would like to especially apologize to: E93 (recent) - Status - ok now BL00D F1R3 (sorta recent) - Status - Good! Reynbow (old) - Status ok now (don't know him that well) Now comes the time of the slums. It all starts out with Skittlemeister and his nice little rants, and his funny arguments. They were funny to us all, but frustrating at the same time. We then had a nice little spoof a couple of days after Skittlemeister's "beheading". Banned. Then our beloved skittles, the joyful 1,000,000 post party thread's almost main poster, decides to use his brother's account (not really) and gets that banned too. Great. Let's keep going, shall we? God of Grunge RIP, gets banned because he wants to make a statement, "OMG FarCryCreations is better, I don't want to be here anymore, OMG it's way better!" Guess what? Banned. Why are so many people trying to make a statement, and get banned? What is the point? I talked with Skittlemeister on FarCryCreations (before GoG's stunt) and he told me his point was to get banned....why? Enough about this bad stuff, since nobody likes a pessimist, especially one who keeps his rant going. Here comes my period of adding people on XboxLive. Many people started knowing me much more around the forums around now. Comparing to before, I was a ghost. So, I started helping people out personally, instead of in general, saying, "If you want, I can help you make it in-game...", or other things of the sort. I started forming "friendships" as I like to call them, not like my parents say, "those other people." I feel I know you guys. I know what you like, and I bet you know what I like, and what my interests are too. Aren't those friendships? I believe they are, so whatever mom/dad, I like these guys (cuz they're awesomesauce!) Here, I become less active on the forums, only posting where I feel like it. This part is called UNSC Spartan. This rank was my other "hump" I crossed. I don't know why I lowered posting everywhere, like I used to; I believe it was from me realizing that I am now decently active, therefore don't need to post like I used to. I won't deny that compared to my old posts, my current ones are better, but I do not believe I spammed. I become now really close to the higher members, something I could not see in the beginning of my ForgeHub life. I really don't know. Maybe my ForgeHub existence was short, being a mere 4 months, and not being here from the start. The only reason I wasn't here, was because I didn't know. I sign up for things the second I see them (please don't say 2girls1cup lol) and I did so in the beginning of June for ForgeHub. Maybe I was pleased with being back into halo first of all, and second, being back into Forge, and actually spending more than 10 minutes to make a quick dodgeball arena. Now, as some of you may know, I recently created my own site. Why? I believe it was for me just plain old wanting to be in charge, although I clearly tried to sell it a different way, in a blog entry I had. I enjoy that site, as it is smaller, but trust me, I enjoy ForgeHub much more! My website was made mainly, even more than wanting to be an "admin" (not that good, trust me....over-rated) I wanted to experiment with some fun things like forums, websites, which never were open to me before. Anyways, enough about that. Here's the part, where if you read nothing above, you should read this. I truly love ForgeHub, for all reasons stated above, even the skittlemeister "incident".

I can relate to a lot of that. And yeah, once I passed a thousand posts I just kinda stopped posting. At first not on purpose, for I had a school assignment, but now I only post when needed, and I still don't at home seeing as my mum blocked FH on my mac.
Very well written, a great read. I was actully planning on doing something like this back for my 3000th but I eventually decided against it. How'd you know I'd read the whole thing? Thank you for your beautiful complement.

I'd just like to point out that i make few appearances here on forgehub these days, and I did appear to say congrats to you. you should be honored. LOL JK DDDDDDDDDDD
you mean rusty? lol Congrats on your 1500th, you joined in the same month as me but have like triple my posts, lol. That was very well written, nice job on that.
I was with im in their Shoutbox when he did this. It was around the time whtn FCC had just begun, and some of the people there (not naming names) were acting very immature towards FH, probably in an effort to gain more popularity on FCC. I believe that was what Skittle was trying to do. There is absolutely no reason to want to have yourself banned, but he did, so clearly he had motives.
