ellie 3,849 Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) Just noticed the date. July 6th. It all of a sudden hit me. This place that some of us call "home" while we wait for this exciting game to be created is 6 months old today, which means we have been posting all these poorly made sock posts for a half of a year. Lots of what has happened here in these forums should probably be forgotten. But then we have all had those moments when we are a part of a thread , a topic, involved in a discussion ( or lurking and following it, comment after comment ) and think THIS is the game I want to play with THIS community. In honor of this momentous occasion, I am going to share my top 3 moments ( posts ) in the CF forum and why they are memorable for me. And I would like to invite you all to do the same, regardless of what game you came from, what your position is on PvP, the EK's, crafting we are ONE community. Let's take a trip down Memory Lane. #1 My top moment in this forum although sad was the RIP Doc thread. For a couple of days, we all were united in one cause, and we were saddened and all willing to share our experiences with the best Mods ( IMO ) this forum will ever have. #2 The "State of the Guild" thread Thanks Cannibal Man. Probably one of the best threads ever! #3 The "Lord of the Dance " thread, need I say more? It was the first time I had ever witnessed something like that. I laughed , I cried and wanted to poke my eye out with a fork. I am hoping the devs aren't shy and share some of their "most remembered" too..................... Edited July 6, 2015 by ellie keefii, courant101, hamopeche and 5 others 8 Maybe it not about the happy ending. Maybe it's about the story.

courant101 5,755 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Good idea to start this thread! 6 months already... omfg I remember, in February, I was thinking that maybe in March the tests would start, and I would quit if it was later than that (how could I wait until summer, it's non sense!) ... oh well I'm still here and summer arrived. Many different opinions and types of players on the forums. Even with all those different points of view, I still see Crows as one big community. Hopefully we'll get the chance to all play together when the game gets launched. Now the memorable threads : #1 "Hunger Week... It's About Time." When I realized that Crowfall was completely different than what I imagined #2 "Happy Birthday Checkyotrack" #3 "Guys, lets get this current stretch goal done" I've rarely been laughing so much and for so long Lastgirl, JamesGoblin and ellie 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IdeaMatrix 1,174 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Top 3 moments in no particular order. 1) JTodd saying that if you constantly seek situations where you're weak, that you're a bad player. 2) The addition of Raph Koster and a future moment which I'm reserving number 3 for 3) When we finally get more information on the crafting system.

ellie 3,849 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 I'm only 5 months old...do I have to wait till next month to post? Awwww, course not lol You go ahead and post, lots has happened in the last 5 months!

Keaggan 1,480 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Awwww, course not lol You go ahead and post, lots has happened in the last 5 months! You don't own me! I can do what I want....thank you 1) Gordon Walton giving me my first huge reasurance that they (the dev team) weren't blowing smoke up my butt during the KS campaign and were truly interested in pulling back the curtain. He did that by owning up (mostly lol) to the mistakes and poor decisions of my beloved game of Ultima Online. I trust grew in them. Knowing one of the top dogs didn't try to use some corporate BS spin. 2) That one time JamesGoblin liked my post.... 3) The Fort give away. I lost in the first few days but I loved how the community was doing something just because it was awesome to do! That's the old school awesomeness I miss. People being cool and creative...because they can be. Cheers!

Adall 3,895 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) The Gordon Walton fan club always blows my mind, they are amazing. Also, dmbrandon for winning the best thread award. Happy six months Crowfall Forums.

KRIPTIK 870 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Haven't been here long.....but long enough to see that all the spicy-ness and you-me-me-you infighting actually, if you take a big step back, IS building a community ninja style. Think about all the people you will NEVER forget good and bad ALREADY. Congrats ACE on 6 Mo. courant101, JamesGoblin and ellie 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lastgirl 1,368 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Definitely DM Brandon thread in the top 3. (Caught him commentating on Smite competitive last weekend, my friends and I and nearly everyone on twitch were like, why is he still commentating on the pro scene~) My favorite moment in this forum so far would be Adall throwing in sapphire to push the banecircle goal over the mark, its really rare to see developers have such an interaction with the community, for better or worse! Never take that for granted after the fact that GW thanked Adall, it was a really nice fuzzy feeling for me <3 Kimiko and the Gordon Walton Atarashi Kami Fan Club is the greatest thing ever. Definitely #1 Um, honorable mention.... the multiple FoE Guilds popping up in Guild subforums, that was just too funny. Its been an interesting ride, fellow keyboard warriors.

macavity 1,434 Share Posted July 7, 2015 My top ten threads: every naval combat thread. Nah, all threads in top10 threads has definitely been the ones complaining about how X and Y isn't realistic. Because we all know Crowfall is aiming to be a realistic game. ellie, JamesGoblin and mal 3 "Crowfall's evolution has been interesting: when we started, the game leaned much more heavily on survival mechanics. over time we added more and more strategy and pulled the survival mechanics. by launch, we'll be the most strategic virtual universe (IMO surpassing Eve Online)" - J.
