How did you originally find this site? — Page 2

I was in college when Disney bought Lucasfilm, and when my friends and I heard the news we decided to have an OT marathon. I came across Despecialized on a public torrent site while researching whether or not there was any better way to watch the unaltered versions than the GOUT. Eventually I got curious about where this wonderful bootleg had come from, and Google brought me here. I think I lurked for more than a year before registering.

Heard about Despecialized somewhere (probably HelloGreedo on YouTube), found the site, lurked for a while, and finally joined soon after TFA came out.

Reading about the upcoming DVD release of the OOT and being interested in buying a LaserDisc player in 2003 as a 13-year-old. Which I did. I gave it away as a white elephant gift a few Christmases ago.

My stance on revising fan edits.

I joined because I was (and still am) doing a TFA edit and volunteered to help Hal 9000 here with his TFA edit. I don’t remember how I found the site, but it likely had something to do with interest in Star Wars Revisited or perhaps Despecialized.

I came here back in April o’ '16, when Team NegativeOne had come off all the hype from their SSE project. I explored the Preservation section, then moving on to the GSWD section. I finally made an account on May 23, 2016. My first post was in the soundtrack ranking thread on June 7, 2016. Then I made my first thread in the Off Topic section in the small hours of June 17, 2016. And that’s the start of the story of how I met Vanilla Ice.

Yeah, thanks for just totally outing me… err, I mean, my friend Frink!

I am pretty sure I visited the site sometime in college and signed the petition.

But then I forgot about this site for a decade or so until a friend of mine mentioned despecialized when TFA was first announced.

Google led me back here and I lurked for a bit. Then I joined. Then I felt like most of the posters here were jerks. Then I became one.

Indefinite antecedents are the best.

Thanks. My guess was correct. And I did intentionally make my post that way. 😄

Theorising that one could time travel within our own lifetime, I stepped into the project accelerator - and vanished. I awoke to find himself trapped in the past, facing mirror images that were not my own, and driven by an unknown force to change history for the better. My only guide on this journey is Oddball, an observer from my own time, who appears in the form of a hologram that only I can see and hear. And so I find himself leaping from life to life, striving to put right what once went wrong - and hoping each time that his next leap… will be the leap home…

 

Oh, you mean how I came here to this site? A mate (we’ll call him Ziggy) on a footy site we frequent said that a group of people were coming together online to try and get the unaltered Original Trilogy released - and that it wouldn’t take long, sign a petition, make a post, see what happens…

I think it had something to do with a video I saw with Jay talking about this site. Not sure how I landed there tho?

K. Let’s have this ride.

Jay said something about this site that wasn’t negative and actually made you want to join? 😛
