Epic Introduction Thread
Hi ricardojvc6.
Welcome to TWP.
I am over the age of 25, have a college education, a job, a girlfriend, and don't live in with parents. 
Decided to check out this forum because another Portal mod forum I invesigated wasn't being well managedmoderated. I'm pretty toleratant and easy going, but have normal limits, and that forum was just a tad bit too hostile for my liking. Kind of like going to a bar, and there was always a few regulars hanging out looking to get into a fight for no paricular reason other than to demostrate they were damn good at trash talking. 
I am a pretty good Portal player that tinkers around with maps occationally, but nothing too serious.

Err...hope you weren't referring to myApertureLabs
Hi thar. If you're gonna have a good time here I'd recommend you check out hammer some more. 
I'm pretty sure he's talking about portalmaps.net, that forum is completely overrun with spambots.

Which is why I only visited that site once. Also, it has terrible site design.
It wasn't portalmaps.net. The one time I visited Portalmaps it looked to be completely abandoned. In general, I see no need to name names. I never got involved with the hostilities, I was just a sideline observer that didn't care for that forum's atmosphereculture; a simple question or comment could quickly take a downward turn and it seemed the same core people were always at the center.
From a player perspective I'm looking forward to the mapping contest; its bound to result in some cool maps to play. I hope the the judges take into consideration "replay value". The mapsmods I enjoy the most are fun & challenging to play multiple times. Other maps, while technically cool, interesting, and challenging to figure out the first time, the maps lack replayability as part of the core design. Just my individual perspective as an avid Portal player... 
Yeah it was myaplabs then. Well as someone said in another thread, we're putting our differences behind us. For mapping.

Very interested in this contest. Bring on October!
You aren't that new youme. You have more posts than me and joined long before I did. And also, according to your profile, you are 100 years old.
Hi! I'm sure I'm one of many TF2mappers linked here by the contest thread.
better get my thinking cap on.
