KINDREDZ'S PROFILE

My memory is probably gonna reach further back than most of you.

I started with RPG 95 at Don Miguel's forums. Young, narcissistic upstart that didn't know jack shit about programming and had a habit of saying the first thing that popped into his head(just like irl)...yet still made a lot of good friends. I remember Don having problems with a young hacker(I can't remember his name) who hacked Don's board and took it over. The dude was a complete asshole at times but a very talented programmer. Don got his board back but decided to start up a new forum.

This is when the "golden age" started and some of the best rpgmakers came around. I'll post their names and what I personally thought of them.

Lysander86...Perfectionist...good guy but sometimes I wondered if he was a real person.
Shqua...another good guy but a graphics freak(didnt like games without custom graphics)
Maxim809...he was REALLY young but we bonded. At times, I felt like he was my younger brother or son or something.
Ryethe...another of my really good rpg maker buddies.
Iishenron/FinalDragon...unexpectedly, I ended up bonding with this guy and was pretty intrigued by him and his mystery. After all of these years I could count the facts about him that I am %100 positive of on one hand. I even based a character in my game on his mysteriousness. 1 of 2 people that knew almost everything there is to know about Forgotten Majesty, from beginning to end(the game that players never got to see and all the data that I lost when my old comp crashed). If I trusted one person to finish my game and keep it faithful, it'd be him. Lol..."him". I still remember when I thought he was a she and the first time that I found out that he was black. Wait. Yep...those are the only 2 facts that I know about Iish, lol.
Shadowtext...I used to be kinda rough to this guy until I found out that he was really, really young. Then I started to admire his intellect.
RPGAdvocate...another person that I wasn't totally sure if he was a person or a highly sophisticated automaton. Nevertheless, someone I respected very much. Thoroughly trashed my game and my lack of programming skills which inspired me to step things up in the completed release that never was.

I remember when Destiny's Call was released and people were talking about how good it was. One poster made a thread called "A Destiny's Call Review...;)" which sounded innocent enough but proceeded to unfairly(but funny) trash the game. That thread somehow ended up being THE thread...never ending, people getting trashed, flamed, praised, wasting time, me discussing how much better-looking I was than everyone else, newbies making a name for themselves but trashing the vets in THE thread, me posting my private parts to stir up discussion...lol...the good old days...

The forums were good fun for a while but every now and then trouble would rear its head. Enter: RancidDiarrhea and something-something Duck King. Rancid was terribly annoying but eventually, he actually became tolerable...but something-something Duck King was a horror. He had this way of making you mad just by posting. He was awful.

LOL...I still remember the porn game that someone made that had all of the forum members in it.

During this time, Don Miguel decided that he was gonna leave the rpg community for good and hand the reigns to someone. For some strange reason, he considered me for the spot which perplexed and infuriated some of the community(and rightfully so). "Kindredz!?! Are you serious!?! That naked airhead!?! All he does is talk about how attractive he is and how ugly everyone else is!" But Don defended me, eventually letting me know that he saw through my act and realized that I was a fair person. I remember a woman by the name of Minismoo or something like that who made it a point to find me on AIM and try to get me in her camp for when I took over the community. Apparently there was some drama between her and others that I knew nothing about and didn't really care. I did think that she was a good person and a mother that just wanted to protect her kids(who were also rpgmakers).

I didn't take the job but I forget who did...

I remember a few years ago, finding out the major plot twist to SO3 and thinking to myself "Those @#$#$@! stole that from Lysander's "The Frozen World". I remember watching Naruto and thinking to myself "Those ^$#%@!# stole that from ME!!(demon sealed inside a child...if you played the second demo of FM that I made, you know this part)"

Eh...Man...I'll finish this up later...

Saga Frontier, Blue's ending.

Quit a while back. I'll miss my mage.

It may take a while to get into the feel of it and let yourself into the game...but it's worth it in the long run.

Avoid Chrono Cross, though. 7 years later and all things Chrono Cross still pisses me off.
