Thought I would just introduce myself to the community. I discovered civfanatics about 4 years ago, but only decided to subscribe some time later. During daytime I'm just a regular guy doing his job, almost married and enjoying life, during the evenings and sometimes nights, I try hard to rule some worlds 
I'm a long time civ player, started out back in the nineties with civ, and stayed a regular all through civ2, 3 and now 4. After all these years, the series still rules and is far superior imo to other comparable strategy games.
Really enjoying this site for the strategy discussions and the modding community. Keep up the great work guys!

Hello, I'm quite a Civ. Fanatic. I've been playing civ. since the old balxck and white Mac Version of Civ. 1. I changed to IBM format in 2003, but I played Civ. II, III ( in all its manifestations, and also the funky civ. derivatives with the spaceships war- walkers and aliens). I'm interested in Civ. III mod packs and graphics. I own Civ. 4, and I've played it, but I prefer Civ. III Conquests. 
Hi all,....I've been playing Civ too for years. First on a Mac, then on PC with all the versions I could get my hands on. I just bought IV and have to say it looks fabulous. Depressing is that, after the introduction, the music and sound effects come in spurts and spits. I've also had some frustrating crashes when building wonders in my capital. I get this weird rainbow criss-cross pattern, the an automatic computer restart. Usually just about when I'm in the middle of an attack. I'm sure there is a better place to go with this question, but any and all feedback on how to hear the 'real' music and not crash is most enthusiastically welcome.
Great game and I'm glad you're all here!

Once again, welcome, one and all! 
Tomislav: I edited your post to spell my name correctly. It is Padma, not Padme. Padma the Outbond is a character in several books by Gordon Dickson, and he took *his* name from Padma Sambhava, a Buddhist monk of the 8th Century. The connotation I was going for was "wise old man".
Padme is a silly girl in a silly movie....
And if you look at the "badge" under my name, it says "CFC Moderator". We have one Administrator here, and that is Thunderfall.

Hi! I'm a CIV2 addict living in Northern Ireland. My wife bought this strange game years ago, for our son, really. Little did she think how many hours on it I would spend! Many's a time have I played right through the night till 4, 5, 6 or even 7 o'clock!
My brother bought CIV 3, but it seemed far too long and complex for my taste. Currently downloading the demo for CIV4. Hope it's good.
I call myself KINGRATTY. My wife used to call me KingRat because of my interest in the Game of DIPLOMACY, where I became Irish Champion - no kidding! Then I tried to use KingRat as a handle on another games site. It wasn't available, so I used KingRatty, a tribute to A.A. Milne's children's story with Ratty a main character.

Hello all *waves*
I finally broke down and bough Civ IV last weekend and discovered this site a few days later. I'm a long time computer game player and played the original Civ I game at work with liberal use of the "boss" button.
I'm the strategy gamer of the house currently. My husband prefers MMORPGs and first person shooters. Looking forward to reading all the great info and tips on the site.
