How did you stumble upon the AVF retro gaming section

Thought it would be interesting to find out how people discovered the AV forums retro gaming section and whether you were already a member of Avforums at the time or have become a registered member since.

Just a few of the obvious questions/topics for discussion

Did you follow a google search link, and if so which thread bought you here?.

Did it persuade you to become a registered member if you weren't already?

Were you already a member looking for something in particular, reminiscing or did you just bump into it by accident.

Is it any good, if not what could be done to improve it?

You know what is interesting though? and it is my personal reason for stumbling upon this here retro section too.

The staff here at avforums are by and large a great bunch and actually listen to their members, the little guy actually has a voice here which is in stark contrast to others i have been a member of, the thread linked below is testament to that fact and big thanks to Rottenfox for putting up with my moaning .

To the powers that be please give us a "Retro gaming" section

Keep up the good work and i'll give you plenty more threads to moderate
