Oy, introduce yourself!

Autism parent and game coder here.

Hey I’m Spencer (he/him), I’ve been lurking here and active on the Discord as Zeno.

I do hobby gamedev and pixel art on twitter @spenceregart

Hey! I’m Rupaan (they/she). I’m a student focused on game design, but since there’s no course for that where I am, I’m not sure what my actual degree should be. So that’s fun.

I started following Waypoint after Kate Gray wrote a piece for here ages ago. Waypoint radio and, more recently, hot mic mornings have been consistent highlights of my week.

My experience with social media and forums has invovled mostly reading what everyone else has to say, so I expect I’ll keep pretty quiet, generally. But I have had an urge to get somewhat more involved and interact more (especially with games forums, since, y’know, games are - for the most part - interactive).

Hoooiiiiii

I’m Eve (27, she/her) and I’m a huge nerd. I work in a book shop, attempt to convince people that comics are good on a daily basis, and until recently smoked a, frankly, stupid amount of weed.

I found Waypoint a little bit after it started up, via Friends at the Table, but have only just mustered the gumption to sign up. I’ve got a long history with web communities, but I’ve spent the last few years pretty disconnected, and I’d like to start changing that. Seems like my kinda forum.

Hi, My name is Moe. I like waypoint. Can I please have an invite to the discord, looking for cool people to hang out with

Greetings, i go by khaoseater. I play a whole lot of video games from a broad spectrum and whiskey enthusiast. Hope to get to know you all better.

Hi, everyone! My name is Eva, and I’m a 25 soon to be English teacher and, hopefully someday, writer. (As of now, I’m more a professional procrastinator.)

I love old and new point and click adventures and I might have replayed the Ace Attorney series more times than I can recall. Anyway. I’m looking forward to getting to know all of you. :sunflower:

Hello all!

I’m Zack (he/him), currently based out of the Seattle area. I’m a UI/UX/Visual designer and illustrator who occasionally dabbles in game design (I release my first game ever over on itch earlier this year). You can find me on the tweetzors at @zack_k.

Been a big fan of Waypoint for about a year now and I’m hoping to get involved with the larger Waypoint community. Maybe find some folks to play the new Destiny expansion with who aren’t Reddit trolls.

Looking forward to getting to know you all. The last time I was actively involved with a forum was when I was a wee teen who was RPing a squad commander in Battlefront 2 sooooooooo… its’ been a while.

Hello! I like most of that good nerd shit that brought the rest of y’all here! Here to fill in the spaces between wanting to create art and my existential dread surrounding the impending climate catastrophe. Follow me on that twit! @howisNaeltaken

Hello! I am muraii and muraii is me. My poor decisions have sequestered me in Ohio (those decisions being leaving New Mexico in ‘97 to go home) but I’m so much better for it. I am blessed with a wonderful partner and all manner of kid-people from 4.5 weeks to 25 years old.

My first foray into modern gaming came in 2010 when I—finally finishing my undergrad degree at age 39–I decided to treat myself to a PS3. I bought two games: Fallout 3 and Dead Space. To this day I count as an important moment in my life that moment when I stepped out into the Capital Wasteland from Vault 11. I finished Fallout 3. I have not finished Dead Space.

I found Gamers With Jobs a couple years later and count the many people I’ve met there as true friends though I’ve met very few. That is a fine community as these things go.

I wish you all the best and look forward to hunting for threads into which I’ll desperately post in the wee hours looking for human interaction. Also the non sequiturs. Lots of those.

I’m Benny (they/them), 20 years old, slowly disintegrating in Sacramento, Cali. I’m interested in game dev and 3D modeling but am not in schooling for it at the moment. Everyone here is so accomplished ;-;

I spend a lot of time playing Nintendo stuff and thinking about being creative. I’ve been into video games for pretty much my entire life, and my first personal console was a N64. I wanna get more into tabletop games but need to find a nice friend group for it.

My twitter is @DorkOrca.

Unrelated but @EveExcelsior I don’t know you but Girl Mountain is lit

Hi, I’m Identity. 27 years old, I like video games, electronic music, cooking, and cats. Reading Waypoint helped me get back into gaming after a long hiatus. Currently hooked on Destiny 2. I used to be a PC gamer but at this point I’m pretty exclusively on PS4. Thanks for welcoming me, very happy to be here!

Ello dare! Been a Waypointer since the start. About time I start using the forums huh?

Yisssss, I am all about that good witchy depression shittttt.

Hi, I’m Anders! Been around various communities over the past… 20 years online. Fan of GiantBomb that started following Waypoint’s streaming and podcasts when it started. I think my main function is to say “dat Utena, tho!” whenever the topic is anime.
I’ve sort of come to the point where I can’t quite spend enough time on internet communities to really become a regular the way I used to, yet sometime wanting to have something similar.

Hi! I’m Taylor. 27 year old, white/quarter Japanese guy (he/him) from the DMV (DC area). I work as a patent examiner so I spend my days talking with attorneys and sometimes the people that actually invent things!

Been a fan of Patrick ever since his G4 days and followed him to GB. From there I learned about Austin and knew I’d be checking out anything he did from then on. Love what Waypoint is doing for games and looking forward to see how it grows.

Not very active on twitter but I can be found there @MyCoolHistory and on reddit as u/MyCoolYoungHistory (bit more active there).

Greetings all! Been lurking on the forums for a while but thought it was about time to introduce m’self.

Resident old fogey, director and animator for Operation: PUG, podcaster, livestreamer, and trad Jazz enthusiast. Been playing video games since the 80s (I told you I was old) and enthusiastically embracing the tabletop/board game fever.

Waypoint is my single favorite games site and I’m pleased to be in this supportive and thoughtful community.

Hello. I was was, and am was once again.
Not much else to say really.

Hi all! Name’s Derek (he/him), I’m 28, and I’m a grad student working in German and Media studies, currently living abroad. I actually research games culture in Germany (both board and video), so if any of you are German and play those Simulator games a lot (Landwirtsschaft/Farming, Train, Euro Truck, etc.), I’d love to talk to you about it (und natürlich kann ich Deutsch!) Also hoping to join the Waypoint discord server at some point, as I’d love to play games online with some people who don’t suck. I think that’s about it! Also if you want to follow me on Twitter I’m @Digital_Derek but I’m not very good at twitter yet (but I’m getting better?)
