Blast from the past

[LegendaryKing6]

Well damn, I never thought I'd see this community come back. It's great to see not everyone has forgotten it.

For any who do remember me, hello there! I'd first like to apologize for anything I may have done before on the OG GW forums that pissed anyone off.

I'd love to know how everyone has been. I'm no longer the 13 year old arrogant little shit I was when I first joined GW. I'm currently now 37, living in philadelphia with a couple roommates a d full time job, and I have a band that's actually starting to do pretty well now. No kids, though. The closest I have is an adorable little red and white husky that back talks like a toddler lol

These days I spend my time working at a body shop, playing music, gaming (Apex Legends is my multi-player game of choice), and playing in a few different DND campaigns. 2 of which as a player with 1 online and 1 in person, and 1 as the DM for an entirely homebrew campaign and world I created.

I can actually directly attribute the RPing I did in the OG GW forums to helping me get better at story writing. Now that I'm an adult I can properly articulate ideas way better and intertwine various story arcs with each other to help create an in depth campaign story.

Holy hell, lk6… long time no see dude. You probably don’t remember me from my first name or Wicked, but I was mdx381/Heretic when you were active.

Different people. We frequented the FOG forums around the same time… GWC, GWW, maybe even C&C.

Oh you know… aging, doing grown people things, and apparently reliving the online equivalent of the glory days like an aging high school jock with a bum back reminiscing on what once was.

Lol I feel that. Sometimes literally in my joints too haha. My band is our city's local artist of the month on the big rock radio station so I have that going for me in addition to a decent job and not being homeless or dead

I recognize this name, but I don't think I ever had any direct interaction with you unless you were into some of the heavier RP boards.
