Prah: I found out about it by a friend at the time who said that they were giving away Duke Nukem 3D (rip) for free in a giveaway, this was December 2012. I created an account and has been an active and devoted forum member and buyer since.
I joined at the same time, due to the same giveaway ;) I then picked up Torchlight for free in June 2013 and started buying games two days later, the first one being the absolute best game of all times: Alpha Centauri.
Not long after that I started working on scripts converting the GOG installers into native Linux packages, starting with Planescape: Torment (bought with all other classic Infinity Engine games) and Caesar 3 (bought alongside the other Impression Games city builders provided on GOG at the time). I have been working on these since then, and that turned into ./play.it.
