Thread: An Introduction to Tom Harlowe

    Default An Introduction to Tom Harlowe

    Heylo!

    I'm Haste in Time, I'm also known as HiT for short and my actual name is Tom. I'm usually a loyal, fun, occasionally outgoing, laid back kind of person. I love Pizza. (who doesn't?) My favorite color is Green. I'm a fan of video games in general, I'm a collector of them too. I also love to watch films on late Thursday nights. Anyway more about me in a bit, ask me what you will about me but first my rather short story...

    Sometime back in the wee late 90's I remember sites like this one and in fact after much strenuous thought. I discovered I remember talk about this place and it's former bulletin board. Back then I was just a kid but that didn't stop me form doing anything I wanted from grades to video games.

    Thanks to a certain article that popped up on Kotaku (see; Eyes on FF) it had me scratching my head a bit. They pretty much had me stuck at the Image for EoFF from back in the hay-day of its prime for a good 15 minutes. So I read through it, hoping I'd find clues as why it was odd but vaguely familiar. Eventually it had hit me. I remembered that It was Fanbased sites like this that out did sites like Neo-Gaf and Game Faqs (which was a perpetual joke in my house. Still is, lol.) and I remembered this site because of Google (pics not search) and even had a long conversation about it back then, even though I never joined it. I Still remember. (Which was for other less obvious reasons at the time, forums didn't interest me much then... now they do alot. LoL!)

    Anyway, I came to the conclusion finally after reminiscing about the mid to late 90's that I thought I'd give the best FF site the old collage try, whether its near dead or not. If there is any place with true-blue 90's FF fans, it was here. It has to be- cause almost everywhere I have gone. There are not so many of us left, tons of the sites like this are not as functional like this either, instead they are dysfunctional and/or full of unsavory characters such as trolls.

    And on that note I'd like to congratulate those of you whom stuck by this place and I'm glad for you. I hope I get to know a few of you at least during my time here. I'm proud to be here. I hope I make some good friends and build some great memories. At this point I find myself waiting for FF14 RR to come out. I have lots of free time and I run a small gaming community of my own in my spare given time. So this should be fun and potentially interesting.

    Any reasonable Questions about me, Ramblings, Music, or Games you would like to discuss?

    Feel free to drop a line and let me know that your alive...

    Sincerely,
    Haste in Time
    "Tom"

    Preposterous!
    Forward, the Light Brigade!'
    Was there a man dismay'd?
    Not tho'(though) the soldiers knew
      Some one had blunder'd:
    Theirs not to make reply,
    Theirs not to reason why,
    Theirs but to do and die:
    Into the valley of Death
      Rode the six hundred.


    Cannon to right of them,
    Cannon to left of them,
    Cannon in front of them
      Volley'd and thunder'd;
    Storm'd at with shot and shell,
    Boldly they rode and well,
    Into the jaws of Death,
    Into the mouth of Hell
      Rode the six hundred.

    Welcome to EoFF! Forgive Boobies; her opinion is not that of EoFF (or anyone with taste, for that matter).

    There are a number of EoFFers who are eagerly awaiting FFXIV's release. You should join us in the FFXIV forum!

    Tifa's Boobs has better qualities despite her pizza hatred.
    Just don't let her catch you staring. Or she'll give you a twak.

    :twak:

    Hope you stick around!

    Because I'm one hell of a butler.

    Hi there, Tom, and welcome! One of the more lengthy newbie threads I think I've come across. It's nice to get to know people a little more in-depth when they join.

    Welcome to EoFF!

    This is one of the strangest forum introductions I've ever read. Like:

    Back then I was just a kid but that didn't stop me form doing anything I wanted from grades to video games.
    WHAT DOES THAT MEAN

    WHY WAS GAMEFAQS A RUNNING JOKE

    Tom you're weirding me out man.

    You guys are just going to have to accept the fact that pizza isn't as fantastically amazing as you all make it out to be.
    Eyyyyyyyyyyyyy
