Hiya all. Just joined up here.
A bit of personal history - I started out on my Megaten craze about a year ago while browsing for SNES RPG ROMs. I found the translations of both SMT and SMT2 (and I wish If... was translated...), and immediately got hooked by the otherworldy dream sequence in the first. I could tell this would be an exciting, nostalgic experience. I proceeded to buy both America-localized Persona games for the PS1, which was no easy task considering their rarity. They didn't have the nostalgia of the SNES games, but they were still excellent games. Just yesterday, I recieved Digital Devil Saga for my birthday (Not a cheap find at this point, mind you), and hence devour the SMT experience once again. I'm looking to bag Nocturne and DDS2 as well; DDS2 should be quite easy to nab but Nocturne I may have trouble with.
Of course, I'm also looking forward to the upcoming Persona 3 and Devil Summoner releases. And also pray that Imagine will come to the states. (Hah!)

DDS2, in my experience, is actually not hard to find at Gamestop. The one over here had it for $40 new.
Anyway, thanks for joining. It's nice to see some new members in the last week or so that aren't ViagraCheap2004 or PlayPokerOnline or FreeValium65. Sigh lol.

Hello all. I figured I should join, considering how long I've been lurking. I have to admit, this is probably the single friendliest Megaten forum I've been to. This should be fun

More like this is the only friendly English speaking Megaten forum. The other degrades into chaos and an ocean of spam. Too bad there isn't more traffic here.

Noob here.
I'm a huge RPG and myth fan. Megaten is my favourite game series even though I only played only two games. :O

You shut your face and post! >:D

Thanks for joining, every one. I too wish this place would pick up speed, but I'm not sure what to possibly do for it. If any one has suggestions I'd be more than happy to listen to them.

I feel compelled to say something, but the Haven has been rather odd as of late. Some shitheads have been crawling out of the woodwork to cause trouble, but I' sure they'll be banned again in due time.

Near the end of its run, the original Megaten Haven board started to fall into slight disarray with idiots like Audrey -- I know you didn't mind her, but she turned everything into spam and she just wasn't funny. It was cool Brand was willing to take over the board and start anew, but it is a complete crap fest. Every thread eventually turns into some sort of fight. It is a spam graveyard. They will get banned, it will calm down for a month, and then it will start again.

I personally stopped going to MH because of those reasons. I didn't go for very long, however. I do appreciate its history, though. It's ran by some nice people and it definitely gets good traffic and news, but the attitude of a handful of people there turned me off completely.
I suppose the same is true of the official Atlus boards at times... but that's mostly because there seems to be a clique that kind of has its own inside jokes and so forth. For someone like me who rarely visits it's very hard to just jump into it.
But really, I suppose this isn't the place to get into all of that. All I know is that I don't have much tolerance for people being jerks and Argilla has even less than that lol. The only non-spammer banning work has been through her, but I don't think it was a regrettable decision.

I am a frequent poster at the Atlus MBs, and at times we can be rough -- If you can stick it out, it really is a pretty good board. It is hard to explain unless you are a regular there. It isn't nearly the mess that the MH boards are, spamming is kept at much more tolerable levels.
I believe I know of the banning you speak of -- I didn't have a problem with it. That particular person could be quite a jackass at times.

Audrey's post were alright at times...I mean, the times where she actually SETTLED down which was pretty rare but then, she'd start back up again. D: I haven't been to MH for awhile and I don't really intend to anymore. There are a few good people I know there but other than that, pretty much every topic went...off-topic. :\
Tony - I feel the same with the Atlus MB boards, haha! I was thinking about registering there before but ah, not sure if I can just jump right in either. XD;
