you're quite right Drakain, and I've pretty much done what you suggested all along..
I might of slipped up here and there but I tend not to use the same nick twice.

so.. a challenge for you.. tell me who I am on some other forums.
(please pm info.. lol)

and a mighty fine first post..

edit : dopey.. i think he meant posting it on other forums besides AO

edit 2 : suggestion.. when you pick a nick.. use a common name..

Drakain.. it took me two seconds using google to find that you have 4,343 posts on another forum.. your birthdate matches what you put in your profile here along with your website.. now, if I went thru every post you did at that forum.. don't you think I could find out more info that would eventually lead me to you ?

come on now.. practice what you preach..

edit 3: ok, i just searched my nick.. and there are a lot of "sumdumguy's" out there hehe.. sounds pretty funny.. but in the first 5 pages.. (as far as i cared to search) there was only one sumdumguy (that's me) and it's at AO.. so I believe that you'll still not find out who a really am..

/sdg pats himself on the back, struts around the room.. yelling "find me if you can"

and if pwaring reads this.. paul.. you better keep your trap shut buddy..<smile>

edit 4 : ok my last edit hopefully.. and I guess I can't really expect Drakain to just pm me with what he finds.. put it out in the open Drakain.. as i couldn't resist showing that I found another website.. one that you'd have to look to find.. I'll just post the update found at that site.. one he's closing down.. sorry to make you the object of my search Drakain.. I hope you see why I did it.

Update: -(October 1, 2003)-

Happy October, it's been nearly a month since I last updated. Well lets see... I'm slowly closing this down, that will be when the sub-site will be launched for the <edited out> Project (see Augest 2nd update) where I will link there, then to a main page were you can find other intrest sites I'm running, as of now, I'm creating a <edited out> website, along with a group of authors, and to top it off, my parents want me to build them a webpage to sell some stuff on... well enough of that, on to the news.

You may not know this, but my working style when it comes to MU*s, is one hour of work, while watching tv and chatting, oddly enough I made a huge leep in my @doing swaper (this is the first time I have touched it in a long time), most of it is complete, all that is left is working on the @do-fix portion to fix the code if it breaks, then compile the code into a cut/paste and debug it a few times, then you all will have a nice automated @doing changer

So in end... lotsa work done, goana do that, then head over to.......

so folks.. you see.. he is quite correct.. protect your online indentity.

and USE DIFFERENT NICKS.. common names..

over and out.. sdg
