Wow, between you and Eut, it's really cool to see some of the notable posters from back around when I joined stopping by. Here's hoping you stick around!

Eut?? Where? (I spent a while searching for posters I knew, but obviously didn't find them all....)
Thanks :) I would like to... however, already it is severely distracting me from my third year project! Dangerous....

Ah, fair enough, glad to hear it, hehe! Me and PM were clearly the extreme of public on NS :P

I can think of six offhand (confirmed or at least strongly hinted at), plus two or three from other areas of the forum, and I more or less entirely avoid the majority of the social forums where such relationships tend to form anyway.

I'm not sure how remarkable an achievement that is, though. Throw a dozen randomly selected teenagers together for a few weeks and you'll wind up with a truly byzantine network of relationships by the end. By comparison, NSers, coming together on a board where common interests are shared and it's quite easy to talk to people, are definitely slacking. :P

*pauses whilst cleaning blood off computer screen*

Him? Oh, he's just... er... taking a vacation. A long vacation. At the bottom of the East River. Very peaceful and relaxing down there, doncha know.

... Truth be told, romance on NSG is probably preferable to unusually violent debates sparked by unresolved sexual tension. Yeah, so arguably that's just normal tension, but imagine how satisfying it would be to see longtime sparring partners, like say Melkor and Muravyets, to admit that all their fiery arguments and bickering were caused by true love's passion!

... Just me?

Okay, fine... *goes back to staring pensively at unfinished NSG fanfiction, and mopping up the rest of the blood*

I have my theories about Melkor, but I certainly won't be the one to say them in public, that poor lad. :p
Kick back at Cafe Muravyets
And check out my other RP, too. (Don't take others' word for it -- see for yourself. ;) )
I agree with Muravyets because she scares me. -- Verdigroth

Hi, I'm Eric, I'm 30, from NorCal. I'm a recovering Republican, now Libertarian. I'm a Lassiez-Faire Capitalist, Minarchist, Anti-Communist, and i know i come off as anti-statist to anyone who has seen my posts.

Economic Right: 10.00

People who denounce the free market and voluntary exchange, and are for control and coercion, believe they have more intelligence and superior wisdom to the masses. What's more, they believe they've been ordained to forcibly impose that wisdom on the rest of us. Of course, they have what they consider good reasons for doing so, but every tyrant that has ever existed has had what he believed were good reasons for restricting the liberty of others.
