Old ass thread and all that, but eh, why not.
Had met Andy (Drakan) & Steve many years ago back in the old pro-wrestling forums & Infinity Effect days. I remember Steve and Andy both pitching the idea for a Fable forum, but at the time I hadn't really gotten into the series much so it all kinda flew over my head. When it finally became a reality and gained some traction, Andy suggested I sign up and give this place a try. I did, and it was overwhelming for me back then. There were way too many members for my liking. I've always been one to lean towards more smaller, laid back and cozy communities. Might be hard to believe looking at things now, but yeah, this place was bustling back in the old days to the point it surpassed the official Lionhead forums for a couple years.
I instead joined up at one of the sister sites, the one for Assassin's Creed and it helped warm me up to some of the core Projectego members like Sharon (Angel), Hex, Albion, droded, KaveX, etc. After several months I finally gave Pego another chance and the rest is history. I can't believe that was 10 years ago...
