Hello And My Compliments To Apolyton
Hello! To begin, my name is Robby and I am 17 years old. I am out here because I am mainly interested in the upcoming strategy game titled "Rise of Nations." It looks incredibily impressive, and is by Big Huge Games and Microsoft

I wanted to first and foremost give my compliments over to the staff, creators, and owners of Apolyton. This website is simply amazing, full of everything that I would be looking for in a fanatistic website: interactivity, content, design, you name it! Just keep up the work and keep on moving forward.

Other than that, I just wanted to drop by and tell a little bit about myself. I will be out here more when I find the time!

Thanks!
Robby

You should go by Rob Thomas instead of Robby Thomas, it's just a much better name due to its lineage.

I'm so glad that when I came to Apolyton, I didn't start by posting in the OT...

Welcome. More or less, anyway.

Dude...he's like, all, gracious, and thankful, about the website...

I guess I'd might as well pitch in my thanks to the Apolyton staff

Thanks for the great website!

Welcome, KnightRobby. (And IIRC[=If I Remember Correctly] OT[=Off Topic] posts dont add to your post count )

If they did, Apolyton would immediately have 10,000 Dieties(=people who [have] post[ed] more than you will ever dream of[or you might. I dunno ]),

That's the automatic tip off that he's a DL over and above the fact that he started this thread in the OT.

Brownie points? Whats that got to do with Ming though?
Or perhaps Markos "requested" this thread not be closed.

My point is that the compliments weren't really for Ming, so they would not influence his decision to keep this thread open.

How about if I start talking about the local politcs of Mayberry and the economic impact Gormer Pile had when he left for the Marines?
