O.P. Tongue  How you came to be on the forum...
There might've been a thread about this... But I searched and didn't find anything close enough to this to not make a new one... and this question just suddenly popped into my head.


How did you get started on the Messenger Plus! Forums?

By that I mean like, did you come here thinking you were going to stay around and be a member here for a long time. Or did you come here just to ask a question, then another question, and then another... and you never really left?...

My story:

I got tab manager for Stuffplug-NG, and I noticed this tab for the MsgPlus! Forums... I never used it for the first couple months or so, and then I started to notice that they were questions that were there... I'd look at the different questions people would have if they looked interesting, so I pretty much browsed the forums as a guest for a month or two. Then I joined the Newgrounds forum... I think I got like, 3 posts or so there?... It's like, one of the unfriendliest and disorganised forums out there... So I figured I'd give it a go and finding some friends here! I fit in Okay so I stuck around and here I am today!



Like I said... just something that I just thought of outta the blue and didn't find anything exactly like it in the search... The closest thing I found really was the Messenger Plus! Forums History..

I came to ask a question...and I decided to stay...since then I have been banned twice, and I have made many friends and a few non-friends. The forums were a great place. They still are:)

Well when I first got into MSN my friend sent me a link to Msg Plus!, so I downloaded it, and I had a few questions, so I went to the site, and found the forums.  I asked the questions, and I never really left I guess.

Found out about Plus back when it was in version 2, went to get it myself and discovered the community.

I've never really looked how long you've been here.... since 2004.... I always thought you were new in the last 2-3 months! You didn't post much until recently. Of course great for the comunity still!

I was around breifly last year about this time, mostly in IRC. Just recently made a comeback

EDIT: since everyone else is saying how many times, Number of bans: 0
But I think it would be fun

RE: How you came to be on the forum...
I've used MsgPlus! since some 2 version (can't remember exactly which one).

Then a while later I forgot about it, then I downloaded the 2.54 version and the next day, or so, MsgPlus! 3 was released... 8-)

I can't remember why I came here. I think I had some questions to ask, but the true reason, I don't remember, because I didn't post right away, I think...

I remember one of my first posts being split into T&T and Cookie telling me not to go offtopic... :rofl:

Edit: oh, right, since some people are mentioning bans...

I was banned once for posting the "|-)" emoticon in a T&T thread (the same day Time was banned for posting some funny picture, and Purity was banned before for something or other... I dunno, too many bogus bans that day... :tongue:)
