I have gazed upon the shiftings of tide and boards. I can recall the days of yore, of the hippo that should be eaten* on commands spoken by one of the great ones. I have gazed upon the mailbag as it switched rulers and gags. I was given the throne in the fanfiction section and ruled from the shadows** for an eternity***. I have watched visitors come and go. I have watched the mods shift places. People banished, people returning. I recall the days of dark and others.
And now…
All I got was this lousy t-shirt!
You knew I’d say that :kissy:
Now for my point. I’m feeling a bit nostalgic. How about some good memories from this place? Any to share?
*Ooh, I’m gonna pay for this.
**Yeah, right!
***Trust me, the update days made it feel like it at least.
I remember the first time I came here, I was always in the chatroom with RPG_Dragon, blingbling, nine_inch_nails, and I don’t know how many other people.
Bob’s RPG Emporium!
The old Millenial Fair
When it was considered amazingly awesome that RPGC had a shrine on every console Final Fantasy.
…uh… Miva boards and Mysidia…
Oh yeah, that crazy fucker who kept going on about Zero’s boob lights.
And who remembers back when us and the Bob and George people used to be cool like ice?
Nate?
Ness?
I was just reminded by Sorcerer’s post, of the time when his avatar was a jumping/dancing snowman thing and his title was Politically Incorrect.
Oh, and Zero in a dress :kissy:
And yes, I do remember that 7% fuck quote. Though I don’t remember WHY it came to be.
I also remember when Macc was still around and the Merlin-piano joke was still around. Let’s throw a piano at him for old times’ sake! C’mon, pleeease?
I remember when I first looked into the fanfiction section, when Mazrim added Weiila’s first magus fic (I don’t really want to think of fanfiction titles right now). It was when all the fics had a pure white background, rather than sharing the same style as the rest of the site, back when we had EZBoard and just before the horrible age of message board popups. Man, that was such a beautiful time…boy, have the years passed, I can’t even remember how long I’ve been here.
