Nipah Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Hello everyone... Another wild refugee from Kotaku! I'll be posting here instead of working most days of the week, so you'll probably see a lot of me from now on. No need to worry though, as I am house trained and pretty low key when it comes to my opinions on things. I have a question: How did this magical site know what profile picture to use? I am a bit mystified, and a lot satisfied with its knowledge of what I usually use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Well I make sure to run a background check on every new member and after vetting them I also tweak their settings to fit them. Reveal hidden contents Forum uses Gravatar, it checks your email if it's got a Gravatar account tied to it and uses that avatar by default. Or if you signed up with Twitter it'll use your Twitter avatar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradox me Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Yo. I come from Kotaku, new commenting system, so on and so forth. Saw a link on Kotaku and thought I'd swing by and have a look-see. Lots of familiar faces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerpiestShazbot Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Hey guys, saw these forums being mentioned on Kotaku so I thought I would join in as well. The commenting system there is so broken now I can't even log into my account there anymore. Anywho, looking forward to hanging out with you guys! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof Bananas Goldsteinberg Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Some of you may recognize me from Kotaku. Yes, I'm yet another Kotaku refugee. Sad to say goodbye to that place, but they brought it on themselves. Just glad I found a few places where I can talk about the things I love with other people who love the same things. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PajamaSam Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Hey, Professor Bananas! I remember you, glad you switched over. You too Paradox! I decided to scroll through the members and none of the people I disliked have come over, only the people I followed. Pretty awesome stuff.

Luftwaffles Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Welcome all. I don't think I recognize most of you, but that's okay, I'm a nobody who stopped reading Kotaku years ago. So, welcome welcome and don't forget to stop by chat. You (probably) won't regret it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faren22 Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Howdy! Some of you might know me from Kotaku (which is where most of us are from anyway), but for those who don't, I'm Faren22! 20 years old, live with parents (moving into apartment before next term of college), generally cheerful.

excel_excel Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 MY LEGACY IS DESTROYED. Mother fuckers. I remember that funny comment I made one time, ho boy it was a doozy. See this smartest kid in the world who was like going to college or some shit at the age of 11 said video games were a waste of time and ahaha, oh god. You shoulda been there!
