I wanna see how many oldies are left on these forums. Anyone with a join date in 2007 is considered a veteran (in my eyes).
Don't be shy, maybe we have some veteran lurkers around :P

Where has everyone gone? D:

It pretty much seems like all the oldies have left. These forums aren't as lively as they used to be (because of the usual trolls)
Edit: the oldest member is oviously the man who started this website. I'll let you guess who that is.

I love how if you sort the member list by join date, there are like 3 full pages of people with under 100 posts that have join dates ridiculously early. I wish I could go back and delete all of my posts from when I stilled used "ur" and "u" and lacked punctuation.

I lurked in the summer of '08. I comment on Jewtoob if there was anywhere where I could read more about the game. Someone told me to come here, go to fanfic, and read the story by Element118(I think that was the name.) I consider myself a semi-vet because I remember the countdown timer being in the hundreds. PS: Someone should really write a fanfic bio for these characters like Element did. Just a thought.
