Im curious, how did u guys find this forum? I don't know about all of you but I used to post here way back in the late 90's back when you had no member profiles and such. I used to get into lotsa fights with the Turks lol about Galatasary. It was funny. Andrew Holme sent me a boatload of emails to ask me to stop.

Ironically, i stopped posting there alltogether up until last year around the world cup.

I have my own site and my own forums now (devoted to FC Porto) but I like to go around the net and read everything that every says.

Your turn!

Well...A few years ago, I was looking for a program to edit FIFA graphics with.

I found EA Graphics editor at the SG downloads centre...And I didnt have the internet at home at this stage, so I downloaded it at school, and proceeded to use it at home, making kits and stuff for my own use.

Since I didnt have the net, I didnt get forum access until very late. I did regularly check the forums, but never bothered to post, the community seemed to "tight knit" and I thought id be an outsider, ESP. if i could only post occasionally at school...

Anyway a few years later I get the net at home, am still making FIFA stuff, so sign up and make kits...by this stage, mainly for FIFA 2002. After making kits for a whlie, i offered to help Gareth out with FIFA Oceania...mainly making kits, and he eventually handed the site over to me (which also meant moding the FIFA Oceania forum)...after moding that for a while, a CM mod was needed..I had been around for a while as FIFA Oceania mod, I was known in the "boardroom", played lots of CM, so i got the job...As a CM mod, I soon became a FIFA mod too, and also started helping out with SGF...And I eventually became what I am now...a smilie...:alex:..Oh, I mean a supermod :D

The Dugout forums (CM site) was constantly taking the piss out of SG's forums, so I decided to come over and take a look. :D

What a bundle of trouble I have been in only 5 months. ;)

When I was looking for FIFA 2002 mods for updated kits, teams, etc, a premier league patch, I found this place, I spent a while just reading, and downloading patch's etc untill i was arsed to register. ;)

I hope FIFA do a Euro 2004 game, aswell as FIFA 2004 like they did last year.

FIFA World Cup 2002 Just put me so much into the spirit.;) shame about the engine though heh.

Heh. Did you say "CM4 is poo" and they banned you?

I have like 12 accounts over at SI. You get banned for little over there. It's a poor forum. Once again, I would never have gone over there if it was not for TD taking the piss. :D

Then i discovered the

I started visiting the Fifa sites way back in the fifa 99 days, but never registered because I didn't really have a need, as I was using forums mainly for political and philosophical discussions. I started mucking around with graphics editing for fifa 2001, but didn't get serious until fifa 2002, when I built Liverpool's Anfield stadium. I needed somewhere to publicise it, and tried at soccered. The response was disappointing (as in noone was really there) so posted about it in the fifa 2002 forum here and got a really good response (especially from Ewan ;) ). Then fifa 2003 came out, and whilst I was waiting for graphics editing stuff to happen, I started checking out the non-footie forum. Saw some political threads, and started posting away...

Well back when FIFA99 came out i started looking for Egyptian NT patchs so i found some kits at Soccergaming.com i couldnt use them so i came to the forum and asked for help i think it was Joe who answered the question....though it wasnt any help at all so i gave up and started to just browse because a lot of the scots made fun of me because half my country is in London...then i got banned for warez...then i cam back...then i told Kader about my old account he deleted it and i became ahmedkkk....i then started to become freinds with most of the mods here because of that old prank Lui did to Hitman....i became a mod after some work in the fifa2003 forum and now i am the person you see today.....all that was in a year since i just didnt post here anymore for about 2 years until the World Cup, after that me and Vida has 3 kids and we named them Yash,Dragan,and Nath.....:kader: :)

*chuckle* yep...just like a prayer granted :D

been around since fifa99..back then i didnt realise there was a community online for add-ons to fifa, *slaps forehead* and when i eventually did, i was chuffed. first thing i ever downloaded was fed99...which is still working superbly, no bugs! :)

frm then on, i came to know abt the forums and ws just a lurker basically, reading and laughing at the people frm behind the fence...:D

only in nov2000 did i take that step down the aisle...and what a bitch SG has been :D

Nah, Some guy was complaining about his job and asking if anyone else had problems with theirs. So I said I was the guy that rubbed the oil on lap dancers :$ Then they banned me because I was only born in 1988- like I don't know about any of that stuff :brow:

I started visiting in late 99, found it through the fifa99 site I think. I didn't register till 2001 though, that's when I started posting (a lot of stuff per day, some will back me up on that:D ) then I went over to Soccered and hardly came here until Soccered started becoming less fun than a morgue so I decided to come back here.:)

hmm..

I was sure Lui always told us that he told you about it...

If you thought it was so good (good enough to tell him), why didnt you start posting straight away? Just curious

haha ok, i don't really think it matters who told who but the reason I didn't start posting right away was well I don't really know why, well i guess at the time I was half way through my final year of high school and was putting in the effort to do well and didn't really want any distractions, so i posted a couple of times when I first registered and then stopped for a while came back for a bit near the end of the year stopped again and have hopefully come back for good a few months ago if that answers yor questions. It was almost a year ago anyway.:o

It does turn out that i still like sg, and still visit here from time to time, but hardly have time to post these days...:(

But i'll make the effort here:rolleyes:

Well ya see... it all started in... Nah, i reckon i told jords about this site, so we both registered.. and we both did post... then that hacker stuffed things up, and jordan never posted after that... however i continued to.

Thennnnnnn, ummmm yeah... then ummmm... i had my little b!tch fit and got banned... b!tched to alex, ice and lior to unban me for donkey's yrs... got unbanned, f@#ked off, came back, f@#ked off again, and now i visit but dont post much coz of my work load and uni.

N e ways i've put enough ppl to sleep, and btw sorry for that abusive email alex, i didnt realise it was u man.

back to the topic ....

got myself FIFA 2001 ... and found out that you could edit it by downloading patches from the web... isnt that marvelous !

So got to Soccergaming by searching ... and naturally joined the forums to get more info ... then made a few patches myself ... but the SOccer Forum was the most interesting really ... and now I dont give a crap about FIFA games after the 2002 edition. and its almost 3 years later and Im still here.
god things have changed in my life :rolleyes: :brow: :crazyboy:
