Is Raw Bean Ok?

Wish I could say I’ll miss you.
[COLOR=‘Black’]Wait, noooooooooooooooo!

I discovered BM in 2005 when the flash site was playing HL2 music, I didn’t want to sign up and didn’t even read the forum that much… I signed up in 2006 just because I wanted to see some attachment file on GN, I didn’t know BM was hosted there, a few months later I started posting after rediscovering BM due to a media update

I remember the days of the flash site. I though it was neat that you could move the windows inside the browser.

I knew about black mesa in the days of leak free, but don’t think I joined until gamernode in 2006…?

That flash site was epic, so cool for 6 years ago!

flash site was SO EPIC

Current site is fine though, so lets move on.

I have been here since just before the Gamernode days. Lurked for a while, disappeared, and came back after the new year.

I haven’t posted much, but I’ve been a registered member of this community since long before the gamernode days, but shortly after the split from the original leak-free. Although I was never part of the original leak-free, I was part of the leak-free reincarnate that died awhile back… so that makes me circa late 2004, early 2005-ish?

Who says you were welcome?

I was here since Leak-Free. But now I just lurk. Forever watching.

I lurked since,well, I think it was back in LeakFree.

I only started posting this year, so I guess I’m an old noob? :awesome:

Hai guys! What’s going on in this thread?

Short answer, real life stuff (work, illness and my amazing and wonderful girlfriend who I’m sure none of you want to hear about/believe really exists) have all eaten up my time and left me unable to carry out my promised dev post collation work, or post/moderate here much (although I did some lurking and keeping an eye on the place). Rest assured I’m in a better place now (work is less crazy/I’m less ill/I finally got some) and I still fully intend to work on this, and soon. I’ve already seen many cool dev posts that would make for good additions just in catching up with things this afternoon, and I’ve got a good idea how I’m going to tackle the job now.

That said, since you’ve all done a wonderful job of feeding my giant ego with this topic, I think each and every one of you deserves an individual response to every post. :slight_smile:

Emo much? :smiley: I kid, I kid, don’t worry I’ll get right on this.

Wow, it seems like yesterday when I was the guy who spent about 60% of his waking hours every day here, with an enormous postcount and having read every post that anyone made in years (going back a forum version or two). Unfortunately, now I’m getting laid instead, so you’re all having to learn to do with less of me. Hopefully I’ll be around more consistently from now on though.

You owe me one resurrection scroll, buster. :hmph:

Indeed it was, although technically I don’t think you can call it ‘rape’: my mouth said ‘no’ but my eyes clearly said ‘yes’.

Currently going by magic_sex_beans on Steam, thanks to a comment in steam chat. I think I’m better at these than you guys.

Have I told you recently how much I <3 you Jon?

I actually lol’ed, works well if read aloud. :smiley:

:jizz:

Meh, Pokemon was for fags. :freeman:

I don’t know what you’re talking about Reb, but I <3 you anyway.

You fucking wish. :stuck_out_tongue:

Not if I can help it. And don’t capitalise my name, faggot. :stuck_out_tongue:

Next time something upsets me my steam name is gonna be BAAAAAH_bean.

wat :what:

Fuck off, welshie. <3

OH SHIT I TRIED TO MAKE THAT JOKE BUT YOU MADE IT FIRST.

I could just edit/delete your post and rewrite history to suit my needs, but I’m too classy/lazy (delete as appropriate) for that. :pirate:

<3 you too, Jambo. :slight_smile:

More to follow…

HOLY BEANS, ITS DA BEAN!

oh shirt, it raw barn!

Who fucking knows. It seems to me there’s a hell of a lot more people complaining about flames and dickish behaviour than there is flames or dickish behaviour.

Ram had to eat something to keep him going while developing all these years, and it’s not like those poor bastards were really using their souls for anything meaningful…

Nice try, champ.

Newfag, imo.

You’re so cool Jambo, when I grow up I want to be just like you. :slight_smile:

Sounds about right, didn’t you and I join around the same time, mate? :slight_smile:

Oldfags, imo.

Ewww! :sick:

You spinning me right round baby, like a walrus. <3

:fffuuu:

Australia is full of oldfags, apparently.

We middleagefags are the best, no matter you saying.

Because that was when I became a mod right? It’s ok, you can admit you have a crush on me.

But you’re cute with it, so no-one minds. :3

I’m here from the year 10,991 (geek points for reference recognition) so fuck you.

This is now the ‘cool story, bro’ thread.

Ta-dah! :smiley:

Suck-up.

No u.

It makes you a faggot. <3

So oldfag you’ve got Alzheimer’s, amirite?

And yet more…

I love you too, sexy beans. <3

Oh Noes! He’s back!

I think we’ve all just been here too fucking long. Especially you. :stuck_out_tongue:

Good riddance, cockfag.

Nice invisotext, I was all ready to rip you a new one till I quoted you.

Ah, the flash site. How awesome.

Nice link Level, good one.

Shit yeah.

+1

Current site is AWESOME. :hmph: But yeah, moving on.

I remember you guys from ages back. It’s been a crazy few years, hasn’t it?

So’s your face!

Creepy. :fffuuu:

oldnewfag, imo.

Fuckin’ A. That’s now my third favourite reaction to my presence behind ‘ZOMFG BEAN! HIDE THE SHIT!’, and the all-time best ever…

<3 That comic was fucking awesome.

Phew! Just think how much catching up on the forums, moderating, collecting dev posts or saving puppies from burning buildings I could have done instead of replying to all those? :smiley:

I was just down in Wales recently as it happens. :slight_smile:

It’s like 2012 has come early! :fffuuu:

Welcome back old bean. [COLOR=‘Black’]c wat i did thar?

Founded in 2004, Leakfree.org became one of the first online communities dedicated to Valve’s Source engine development. It is more famously known for the formation of Black Mesa: Source under the 'Leakfree Modification Team' handle in September 2004.
