sven666 - where did he go?
Where did the user who goes by the name of 'sven666' vanish to? He seems to have disappeared off the face of shmups!

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
Some people just phase out their attention span from one hobby and start focusing on another. Sven sounded like a successful guy who had taken his shmup hobby to the utter limits. I'm sure he will be sniffing around at some point. Personally, I had a lot of respect and admiration for the guy. Never had an inflated ego and was always the helper with a great amount of experience.
He will be back i'm sure.

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
What I meant was I couldn't find any of his posts, but strangely enough I can now. Weird ......
He also hasn't posted for a while. Must be on holiday.

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
Yes, he's fine. I was in contact with him yesterday. His other hobby, knitting, takes up lots of his time lately.

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
He is getting old
He doesn't seem to be posting as much as he used to, neither here or anywhere else.

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
You know who I'm worried about? Brian, hasn't been spotted in months. Had no reason to think he was gonna drop off the face of the planet either.

Nothing to worry about methinks, as everyone takes a break from posting once in a while due to whatever reason. (living life, burn out, losing interest, not in the mood to post, etc etc.).
He's probably being busy playing Little Ralph and visiting dedicated "platformer sites" or whatever.

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
Yeah - I'd missed Brian and Sven, but we all go through patches of limited access - I just had a bit of a hiatus - and once you get behind and miss a week or two, clicking the 'view your posts' link can feel like quite a mammoth task, as playing catch-up is always a bit daunting.
They'll be back!

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
Bridget, from what I know, sort of left the Shmups forum in favor of a new hobby: bullet hell stuff, boss rushes, and time trials in LittleBigPlanet.

He is probably flying his fighter jet or tearing up some school zone on his motorcycle. Typical Sven666 stuff

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
Err, he's had a PM sitting unread in his inbox since March 29, but thanks for your two cents and the rolleyes. (Last time I checked his profile, which must've been more than three weeks ago, he wasn't showing any visits since that time.)Super Laydock wrote:His last post was only about 3 weeks ago...Ed Oscuro wrote:You know who I'm worried about?

Edit: Actually just caught up with him in PM, I guess that old PM fell through the cracks somehow, so mission accomplished!

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
Looks like I have a chance of passing sven in total post count, though jpj is going to pass me in no time. 

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
jpj pledged to post far less in upcoming times, but then he made a beautiful post in the "How to try hard" thread, so I dunno.

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
Not just sven. There are only 3 users online at the moment.
Noticed this exodus the other day. Very few posts and views by anybody recently.

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
swedish girls are REALLY imba.
A friend of mine went to spectate a counter-strike women only competition once. One of the finalist team was swedish or norwegian, can't remember.
Most of the members of that team could have been models.

he is probably just at home dancing around and singing along to the new gunther album 

Re: sven666 - where did he go?
That reminds me. Remember that black kid who I thought was good at STGs? Turns out BWR is easy and I just suck with a keyboard. I beat it on, like, my first? second? try with a USB Saturn pad.PROMETHEUS wrote:swedish girls are REALLY imba.

The stuff down the bottom of the page is...
& yes I know its been posted before, but I needed to be reminded.
The thing is, the English nightclub pics seem to come from Newcastle, which was a Viking stronghold - So what went wrong in the meantime?
