Title: Woot, 10 years at charas
Post by: DragonBlaze on August 10, 2013, 04:57:14 AM: Completely random thought, but I just realized I've been a member for over 10 years now, which is longer than I've been a part of ANYTHING. It's crazy to think how much this site has evolved over the last 10 years, hell, back in my day (now I feel old), this forum only had rm2k.

Cheers to the good ol' days!

Post by: Prpl_Mage on August 10, 2013, 06:40:11 AM: Ah the good' ol days.

When I joined like 8 years ago I can't even remember there being anyone still using rpgm2k though. Just remember those odd facesets surfacing from time to time and people calling conditional branches "fork branches" and some other things that was a bit confusing.

Post by: Cerebus on August 10, 2013, 07:31:50 AM: Been 8 years a couple weeks ago for me. I remember registering an account for the sole purpose of uploading one single monster. But I had been checking the forums a bit before, and kept checking after uploading that monster, and decided to try being e-social a bit.

Post by: zuhane on August 10, 2013, 01:37:40 PM: Wow, the years just kind of fall off the calendar, but yeah! Maybe not 10 years, but I've been on here since I was about 15 :o

Post by: Apex on August 10, 2013, 02:43:41 PM: I got 9 and a half.

I remember when I first got RPGmaker for the PC... This site actually had a practical purpose for me, hahaha.

Post by: oooog on August 10, 2013, 02:51:20 PM: Bah, seniority over me by only a few months. Oh well, it's interesting to realize our accounts are a decade old. In fact, this account has existed for almost half my life.

(now I feel old)

...yup.

*sigh*

I wish I could do what I did when I first joined charas (fake sick at school to go home to play AoE2). Now I have a job and bills and stuff...

Post by: Archem on August 10, 2013, 05:37:28 PM: Congratulations on wasting a decade slumming around this joint.

Of course, I'm no better. You spent ten years being on-and-off active, I've spent eight being constantly online.

Post by: ZeroKirbyX on August 10, 2013, 07:34:55 PM: Archem's right everyone, he's terrible.

Yeah I'm notorious for that, though I'm afraid if I leave charas again, it may not be around anymore when I come back.

Post by: GaryCXJk on August 13, 2013, 01:35:39 AM: I can't even remember who's been here ten years ago. Well, aside from Alex, SMB and... yeah, that's basically it. I mean, I do remember Babycatjuh, but that's because she was pretty much the only Dutch female on this board, so yeah.
Title: Re: Woot, 10 years at charas
Post by: Cerebus on August 15, 2013, 11:32:06 PM: It's also quite difficult to forget a person who's thread is still [sort of] active today.
Title: Re: Woot, 10 years at charas
Post by: SaiKar on August 16, 2013, 03:26:59 AM: I don't even remember when I registered anymore.

Edit: February 04, 2003, 10:06:17 PM. Apparently. Fwew. The ideas I come up with late at night...
Title: Re: Woot, 10 years at charas
Post by: Moosetroop11 on August 16, 2013, 05:12:41 PM: Haha, I saw the '2004' error you made and did a double take : p

2003 is the golden year where everyone who joined is awesome and old. Everyone else sucks, including me.

Just FYI, in these days I renewed Charas' hosting, so it will be around for at least other 5 years :)
Title: Re: Woot, 10 years at charas
Post by: Archem on August 17, 2013, 02:57:39 AM: Great news Alex. Another five years for us miserable wretches to shuffle around and complain about how we never change.

I love it.

It appears that way :( We can have a belated celebration though, right?
Title: Re: Woot, 10 years at charas
Post by: Alex on August 17, 2013, 09:51:23 AM: Why celebrate 10 years? Let's celebrate 11!
Our "birthdays" actually are:
Charas itself: September 4th 2002
Charas Forums: January 19th 2003

So the first 11th bday is actually pretty soon.
