Hey there, adult life is terrible and I got ~*~clinical depression~*~ :D

I usually go by the username tiger_robocop now, or taiguerrobocopi when that one is taken by other funny haha so random oldschool brazilian gamers with  no creativity like me.
Havent updated ^that thing in a few years either.

Tried my hand at a  professional game and pixel art career ( If anyone is interested, https://www.deviantart.com/taiguerrobocopi, though none of my actual professional works are in there because client secrecy... also most my clients wanted NSFW stuff) but then quickly realised making my hobby be my job was making me miserable (also when I learned I had depression). Also, couldn't finish any project due to feature creep so ya. Spent four months working manual labor in a big chain store but that place was two steps away from actual slave labour plus my boss was lowkey making me break multiple health and safety laws so I nope'd out of there quite fast. Half a year ago I landed a job as a public servant paper pusher and though it is far from the adventure and excitement the child me who first joined this forum wanted their job to be on the future I'm pleasantly confortable. Like, it's boring, but it is nice-boring. Like watching an unfunny Simpsons episode.

I had a mustache/goatee/sunglasses/beret phase. It lasted a year.

Recently became interested in rpg maker again and it reminded me of this place. Glad to see this place is still around in zombie form though I'm honestly starting to get concerned for Alex's wallet.

I'm glad that so many people are finding their way back here honestly. And even if things didn't exactly turn out as we expected back in 2005 ish when we joined - life turned out quite okay for most of you I hope.

Nice to see you Grandy, sorry to hear not everything's going well :(

I'm liking the pixel stuff you should do a chapter in the new chain game!

Sorry to hear about your misadventures. Hopefully things will get better.

Alex is fine as well as his wallet. Thankfully growing up also came with some better financial stability :)
Thanks for being concerned, though!

Hey Alex not to complain but when will we secure the site again? Like it feels weird seeing Charas with that excitement point and ominous grey "not secure". <.<;;; Makes a man worry we'll see the forum blow up again. Not that there's a lot to lose but it would suck to see all those years of Topic Kicking or current topics vanish.

Just had a mild panic attack when I thought I'd completely lost access to my account.

I'm 32, I work in counter-fraud IT, and I still think about things in terms of Fork Conditions and Parallel Processes.

Someone should probably create an 'Old Charas Weirdos' Discord/WhatsApp group or something.

I was supposed to spend Christmas with my parents and sister's family, but my wife, my child, and I all came down with covid a few days ago. Christmas is cancelled :P

That's not a bad idea at all, I'd join.

How is it that you're three years younger than me yet I remember being the young jibbering troll who didn't understnad the concept of not bombing people's public RPs from literally dropping starship on you? XD Gah my mental image is destroyed.

Also I did create a Charas Discord and as they say in Undertale: but nobody came...
