Troels Pleimert Posted December 7, 2012 Report Posted December 7, 2012 Hi, guys. Not much out of me lately, huh? Well, here's something brand new. Google+ opened up the possibility to build "communities." Since the original intention behind the 2GFA Google+ page (http://gplus.to/rogerwilco) was to just post nostalgic screenshots from the Space Quest past and wax romantically about them, I thought I'd graciously give the rest of the world the chance to do likewise. Especially since the focus of the Google+ page has moved on from nostalgia to more current topics (cough-SpaceVenture!-cough). Enough smarm already. Here's the nostalgia channel for all you "Plussers" out there. (God, I hope they come up with a better name for G+ users soon.) https://plus.google.com/communities/108373190608713835984 nockgeneer, Johnathon and MusicallyInspired 3 Quote
nockgeneer Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 Then let's come up with our own and start spreading it. My suggestions below: +aggers (pronounced "taggers"....or "plusaggers" if you really want) GPs S+reamers (and the prolific ones we call S+reammasters) Plusmores (or +mores) +lifers (with a pause, not strung together) Vote for your favourite! Or, let me know if there's a poll mechanism we can use if we get some more suggestions. Oh, and the stream is awesome+astic. Quote
Johnathon Posted December 10, 2012 Report Posted December 10, 2012 Why not the "Google Plexers"? :) nockgeneer and Troels Pleimert 2 Quote
nockgeneer Posted December 11, 2012 Report Posted December 11, 2012 Why not the "Google Plexers"? Nice, totally missed that opportunity. Johnathon 1 Quote
penguinfan Posted December 12, 2012 Report Posted December 12, 2012 I think that term is reserved for people who actually work at the GooglePlex? Don't have an account myself, but I'd vote for GPlusser. On the other hand, Troels might also answer to GCusser ;) Quote
Troels Pleimert Posted December 12, 2012 Author Report Posted December 12, 2012 S+reamers (and the prolific ones we call S+reammasters) And I thought this was a family-friendly forum. A "reammaster" sounds like a very volatile career choice. Quote
Johnathon Posted December 12, 2012 Report Posted December 12, 2012 Hahaha! I admit, that's exactly what I was thinking too when I read it. I just didn't want to be the one to say it. Quote
nockgeneer Posted December 15, 2012 Report Posted December 15, 2012 I think that term is reserved for people who actually work at the GooglePlex? Actually they're all called Googlers as far as I'm aware. And I thought this was a family-friendly forum. A "reammaster" sounds like a very volatile career choice. Get your head out of the gutter. It's pronounced "Streamers" and "Streammasters" of course with the t replaced by a +. *sigh -_- Quote
penguinfan Posted December 15, 2012 Report Posted December 15, 2012 It looks like Nockgeneer is right, but how could such smart people have missed out on this opportunity for a cool name...? Anyways, I'm changing my (largely irrelevant) vote, "google plexer" is too good a name to waste. Johnathon 1 Quote
nockgeneer Posted December 17, 2012 Report Posted December 17, 2012 Google Plexers it is. Feel free to use it in all future posts. Johnathon 1 Quote
Johnathon Posted December 20, 2012 Report Posted December 20, 2012 Well... I've done my good deed for the day. Wish it was this simple every time. :P Quote
