TOG - The Older Gamers

Calisto · 9th January 2006, 05:00 AM

Hi there, I was pointed to this site by dixi_ms on another forum and thought I'd stop in and say hello as I meet the criteria

I'm 35, married 10 yrs, mother of 2 boys aged 7 and 4 and both avid gamers like their parents. I work as a Medical Laboratory Technologist with our lab's computer system IRL, and online I have many 'jobs' within the gaming community, most involving female gamers. I've been running Gaming Girls for almost 2 yrs now and I help moderate WomenGamers for about a year now. I'm also very active on many gaming sites in varying degrees and it's always great to find a new community

Anyway, I just really wanted to say hello and introduce myself.

so .. Hi

Hello, Calisto. Nice to have you visit 'n stuff. Tell all the gals I said "S'up".

Calisto · 9th January 2006, 05:13 AM

stop in and say hi yourself, all gamers regardless of gender are welcome

Oh, I also noticed I didn't give any gaming history (I blame not enough coffee yet). I'm generally an FPS player, Quake3 and mods, CoD's and mods, SWAT4 , ET and mods, and Tribes:Vengeance are probably what I"ve played the most lately (I'm hoping to be able to get Q4 and CoD2 soon, but need a new vid card first

). Lately tho, I've been totally hooked on Guild Wars and is what I've played the most since last May (it was my mommy's day gift).

G'day Calisto.
Firstly thank you for dropping by and welcome.

Secondly, if you'd like to become a member of TOG, you've omitted the FAQs and AUP bit out of your post/application. Once you've checked that little box (so to speak). Once you've done that, the Admins will be along with their magic TOG stick to grant you membership.
