Post by: Dustman on January 15, 2003, 08:54:58 am
Greetings and Salutations to ye all!

I\'ll probably be using this nick unless someone beats me to it, in that case I\'ll be known as \"Sibuyas\" or maybe \"Bawang\". I look forward to meeting all of ye when the game finally comes out!!! :))

hmmm ... WAITAMINUTE!  8o  come to think of it, its still actually quite a long time maybe not even in this lifetime!   ;(    (knock on wood).

Oh well, see ya around in the forums instead.  :D

God Bless our dedicated programmers/developers. We should all buy em a round of beer! :D Cheers!


- From Dust we came, and to Dust we shall return. -

I would love a beer and a convention when the game comes out.  Hopefully we will do a good job on this and we\'ll have lots of fans, so get togethers might be possible.

I can\'t wait to see someone dressed up like a Diaboli female at a convention! ;-)

Do people actually hold conventions for games? Hehe I suppose I can believe it for stuff like EQ - some of those players seem to be completely immersed and totally obsessed!
It would actually be great fun to actually meet people that I\'ve been talking to for all this time, and go for some real beers :)) Maybe you should give us all a nice holiday in Italy or something - I think I could handle that hehe ;)  

Welcome to PS Dustman! Like the name, didn\'t they have Dustmen in Planescape Torment - cool game, I really must go back to it someday...

There is actually an Annual UO convention here in Austin (where Origin is HQ\'d).  Entry is like $200 so I\'ve never actually been.  They hold little seminars and talk about upcoming game events, have circle chats with the devs and admins, and do costume ball stuff.

A PS \"convention\" would be a good way to raise donation money and get publicity.  Maybe for the \"full game\" release, we could do a simultaneous world-wide convention.  Like one in the US, one in Europe (prolly Italy),  and one somewhere else (Australia?).

BTW, I\'ve already started making my Female Diaboli suit.  You have been warned! :D

Hey Hey.
Hey, guess what, I am sure I am not the only one that must have thought this, but Dustman, and White Dust, they are all like the same and stuff. :D

Uhh ... yah! but we\'re all made all made from dust  anyway :)  hihi

btw, if ur implying that we\'re related ... nah :) but if ur implying that we\'re the same person  8o  Nope!  :P  hehe

Anyway, a convention would be great! and hopefully by  raising some funds from \"donations\" and stuff, our kind-hearted developers would not be led astray by temptations of worldly matters but instead be fullfilled by the grace of an ice cold pint of beer.   ;)  

In other words, Lets help keep the game free and keep the dev team drunk :D hehehe

No, No, I am not saying that you could be related, nor am I saying that you are the same person, just kind of like twins.....lol
