Introduction . . . to yourselves!
« on: July 05, 2008, 12:36:37 PM »
Would any new or existing members please introduce themselves, I know a couple of you have, it would be great to hear where and how you found us, and to know where you live . . .

Right!

I will start this now . . .

My name is Andy and I live in Leicestershire, UK and I found this site by being the owner! It is a joint idea between myself and my wife Linda, with loads of help from a lot of people. Too many to name here but you know who you are and will be mentioned on this website on the Friends Of RCM page.

Hope to hear from you all soon. If you have already posted - thanks -if not - please do introduce yourselves ;)

Hello gooner, Hi there DrewPee

Im rain_storm and I too learned of this site from dbfinteractive where I first got to know DrewPee. My real name is Michael and I live in Ireland. I am a demoscener and love programming for the vintage DOS platform I am currnetly trying to get my head around Z80 assembler and hope to someday also program on the old 8bit + 16bit console systems (takes a lot of time to learn just one of those so this will take me some years to learn). My first console was the Atari 2600 which got taken apart and reassembled just days after it was bought. Later I had NES then a Master System then a Mega Drive + Mega CD. Then came Playstation and Playstation2. It was on the PS2 that I was to get my first taste of programming in the ps2Yabasic language. Nowadays I have just my PS3. I dont collect systems but I am sort of a groupie

Ny real name is Nick Simpson, I am a scener and a member of the group Surprise!Productions where I am a coder.

I administrate the DBFinteractive website where I can usually be found!

As well as coding demos and intros I am a part time website software developer too and the site you are looking at was programmed by me.

I am quite pleased with how it looks, once all my spelling mistakes have been removed from the text then this can be a site to be proud of I think!

I know Andy and Linda are going to make a great success of this site and it was a pleasure to make it for them.

I'm Dave and have been a close friend of Andy for longer than I can remember, we have been through some amazing times over the years, with computers always there (mainly in front of us late at night trying to beat that next level). I live in Quorn (near Loughborough) with my wife Alison and our two cats Bosley & Spooky.

My passion with computers started with an Intellivision console, then onto a ZX81, next a Spectrum, followed by an Atari 800XL, then Atari ST, and next my favourite - an Amiga 500, it was then that Andy, myself and friends founded 'The Lost Boys', after ten years with my Amiga I couldn't hold off getting a PC, so delved into the dark art of self-building.

But despite all the flash new games, Crysis, Call of Duty 4 etc, there is no greater buzz to be had in gaming than when an Umbrella appears during a game of Bubble Bobble!  ;D

Hello RCM, I am Zetr0, pleased to meet you.

some of you I know from other forums, its nice to see what *other* mischief you get upto. :D

well some of you might know me from EAB or AmiBay, I do get around a bit and have a Forum Posting OCD :D... I have been told its quite common in the 21st Century Netizen :D

Firstly let me say its RCM is a great idea, I do hope that this works in your area!

So a little about me.... hmmm (nothing the Feds could use against me ;)) well I have a Wife, 13yr old daughter and 8 yr old Cat :D these are my 'Girls' as it were :D, I am a *returning* student getting my MSc in computing Science over here in Norfolk UK, fear not, i wasn't born here atleast :D.. I love retr0 gaming and building / designing software and hardware, I have a HUGE amount of hardware knowledge concerning the Amiga,.... its not my fault i just couldn't stop reading :D.

Personally I love getting involved in community projects its perhaps where I thrive the most, the irony is that I can easily over extend myself LOL, but its a passion :)

anyway this is more than enough about me for the moment as I am sure you will get to know me quite well as time progresses :)
