I have posted nearly a thousand post's and none of them have ever been moderated. Hopefully it is kept that.

Not sure which one was better, this one or the previous on.

And she doesn't even like games. She just wanted to join just because of the off topic forum.

My Topic has been on the boards for a week now. And it is the off topic board too.

I am up to Level 10 Phoenix Down. My level just keeps getting higher and higher.

(READ PART 1, 2 and 3 FIRST BEFORE READING THIS)

The day I became a big poster was the same day I got a little friend called broadband. After I got broadband I could catch up on the topics and not miss out. I made friends and other gamers got to know who I was. When I got used to the forum thing and mastered the Gamefaqs website, I decided to return to complicated website I visited many years ago.... Gamespot. The first thing I noticed on Gamespot was the blog thing, it looked pretty cool. I did my first blog entry and it got pretty addicting after that. I noticed how much more Gamespot had to offer than Gamefaqs. Unions, blog, friends, tagger thingies, emblems. I still haven't explored all of Gamespot yet but I am getting there. And this is practically where I am up to in my Gamespot life.

So now you know, thank you for reading this very long story (if you took the time to read it that is. :) )

At Gamespot, I looked at some of the game forums and noticed other people had questions too. I wanted to ask the question but I was too afraid to and left the website for now. When I returned to Gamefaqs I noticed they had forums too, I just never realised. I went to the forum and noticed it was the exact same forum I went to on Gamespot. I had a crazy idea that my account on Gamespot could work on Gamefaqs. I tried and it worked. When I was confident enough I made a topic about my questions and got out of the website hoping that the next day my questions may be answered. The next day I returned and I had a few replies. I was so excited to read them since they were my first replies I had ever got in a forum. I don't remember how many times I read them back to me but it was really exciting at the time. I didn't really go on the forums that much since I had dial-up and my Mum didn't really like me connecting to the Internet every day. In fact I was lucky to connect once a week.

Ever since that day I have been using Gamefaqs and that has been my main website for guides and cheats. Anyway while looking through a gamefaqs I found I guide that looked different from the others, it said it was a gamespot guide. I clicked it and I noticed that it took me to an entirely different website. Gamespot.com. This worked exactly like Gamefaqs except it looked cooler and looked (at that time I was a noob) complicated. I also found that it had a thing called forums. I had never seen a forum in my life until that day. I noticed it was about gamers discussing games with other gamers. I had a few questions of my own about some of my games and thought that maybe I should post some questions and maybe they could answer. So I joined.

Yes it has been over a year since I have joined. To celebrate I am going to tell all of you how I joined Gamespot. Beware this will be a long blog entry. Anyway I was looking up cheats for this one game and this one website had cheats but they didn't really work all that well. Anyway I noticed they also had a walk-through but it was a not a very well done walk-through. So I got out of that website and Google searched walk-throughs for my game and that is how I found Gamefaqs. When I went to Gamefaqs I could not believe my eyes. It had everything., reviews, game info and the best part about it was it had cheats for all the consoles and games while the website I was going to only had the cheats for the recent consoles. I searched for the game I wanted and I could not believe my eyes. There was a numerous amounts of guides. Not just one but many with their own category. I also noticed that all the cheats worked. In the website I went to, 50% of the cheats didn't work but Gamefaqs had no invalid cheats at all. It was the best website ever.
