I am not a full time poster here, but I did love the ability to ask anything here. One night I was working on a job that HAD to ship out and we couldn't find the correct spelling of some french word. Google was no help so I asked here and got the answer I was looking for.

I basically used ACF as my knowledge base. (Eventually you would get your answer)

Also I like how I can read ACF first when I get up and know if something newsworthy happened without having to start on CNN.



This for me. If something happened ACF knew immediately, but I didn't have to wade through piles and piles of other crap like on bigger news aggregation sites. And yes when Google would occasionally fail me, ACF never did - no matter what the topic.

If VN was smart, they would have marketed that awesome ability years ago....and we wouldn't need to merge with IGN, we would all be rich and famous. God Damnit...I always get (AKA steal) good ideas just a little bit too late.

-Trade posts.
-HG Flame wars.
-The time my brother and I 'embarrassed' Persy by jumping another guild's Bobo run and it spilled out onto the VN for like 5 pages of drama. I think he got banned over it too...
-ACVault staff, doing write ups, and then actually having people IG message me or tell me they used my writeups
-VGVault, doing a 'fake' newsletter on April Fools and I got an email from the TenTon Hammer site admin that he thought it was real and I did an epic job. LOLZ
-When I was in the experimental 'VN promotional staff'...it was me and Beib I think...
-Being Modded, seeing everyones notes, playing in the Lounge, harassing Beib constantly
-Rift and War Vaults, doing nothing, but still getting to act important
-War General in it's prime (like a week...le sigh) where I spent 6+ hours a day modding. Number of bans and angry emails...OH those were the days...
-Modded to ACF, the hate posts from everyone when they saw my dot up there and the riot posts. Most excellent.


Been a wild ride over a lot of years.

There's some delight in ale and wine,
And some in girls with ankles fine,
But my delight, yes, always mine,
Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.
