I tried to find Eric (thinking that maybe he spends some time on another forums) using following key expressions: "eric", "new zealand", "forklift mechanic", but all Ive found are links pointing to og and abandonware-forums.org posts... :| I think when sitemap will be ready people who missed og disappearance (if it's for good this time) will find old friends by their nicks...
I thought Eric lived in Sydney? Also I remember reading that he had shortened his nickname from 'Eric the Viking'...so I punched this stuff into google and found some tracks that might be him;

http://forum2.egosoft.com/viewtopic.php?t=47201

Only problem is that the thread is 1 year old. :(
I'm sure it's good old Eric..! The way he ends his post:
Cheers,

Eric
I've looked at his profile in there, and it seems like the last post he made, was March the 8th 2006... That's not more than 1.5 month ago or something.. So he might still be active there.. ;) I think I will create a user, and send him a PM... :)

I have send the following message to him:
Hi Eric!

I am a member on the forum called www.oldgames.nu/forum, and on that forum is a member called Eric - Formerly known as Eric The Viking. I would really like to get in touch with him..

Then I stumbled over you, and your name and style of writing really looks like Eric's.. ;)


If you are the one I am looking for, I would be glad if you contacted me via MSN or e-mail:

MSN Messenger: [email protected]
E-mail: [email protected]

If you don't know what I am talking about, I would be glad if you would still write me a mail, so I can look for the "real" eric elsewhere.. :roll:

Thank you, and kind regards

Chillum
I hope he sees it :roll:

My thanks to those whom sought me out... I missed OG but, for reasons of my own, left, never to return.

The post you found on the EgoSoft forums was old (brings back memories) and I'm surprised you didn't find any recent ones since I have posted there with the release of X3.

I actually joined OG and was moderately active but then disappeared for six months - I was on the Egosoft forums and had totally fallen in love with X2 - I played this game for a total of around 10 months before becoming bored with it. X3 - the same game with new graphics. And plot breaking bugs. Sheesh! :roll: Glad I didn't buy it.... :wink:

*whistles casually* *cough* <- we need a smilie for this!

Anyway, I'm glad to see some familar faces, and new ones :)

Um, do I get a free drink?? How many?? :D :D

Oh, if you'd like to see something amusing, look at the starsign thingies in my post... put your mouse pointer over the middle one and then move it to the one on the right......

See! It's correct!

Wow! Eric! Never thought I'd see your non-purist 2 cents again ;)

I am happy that you have joined.

Ladies and gents, we have a true gamer in our midst and an OG legend...

Rejoice!

A game that truly deserves tributes. ^_^ If my account's not been removed, I'm still registered at PM Nexus, the first online forum I ever registered at. Perhaps I'll find energy to type something into the thread a bit later. ;)

Meanwhile, everyone should get to know with the magnificent thing called culture. A link to flash file that pretty much sums up the whole term 'creativity' follows: http://dojo.fi/~rancid/loituma__.swf

Has Eric just joined today? Then Who a hell is Spiff?

Anyway, It's great to see you here mate :Bearhug: :Bearhug: :Bearhug:

I missed you, Old Viking

@Janice

Here is your lemonade. BTW why haven't you posted that cute Kitten Avatar yet? or a RL picture of you?

@eMTe

I may qualify for the 4th option but the problem is that I can barely secure a 1st date (which also excludes the "shotgun marriage" option) let alone a meaningful relationship.

@Ogre

Welcome back too, where have you been

Hello to all - SGSW, Pitkin, Tank - more friendly faces :)

@Chroelle - yes, but my way is funnier :P And more acurate.... Literally that is and not metaphorically.... :lol:

Oh, btw, here is my house...

http://www.domain.com.au/Public/Propert ... 2005617989

We (Carolyn and myself) are looking at moving out to a more rural setting and this is our current house we have on the market.

I have a digital camera now so you should expect pictures of anything which tickles my fancy. Well, not everything that tickles my fancy, of course.
