I feel old now...
 
I looked at my join date: 05-15-2001

Let's see..7 years ago. 7 years ago I was only 16. SIXTEEN! >.> So much has happened, and still, some things have not changed even from that timeframe.

I started on forums related to this one in what.... '99? '00?
Nintendodolphin... .net was it? Then Nintendose...

People like dropping those names once every couple of years... Fun times.

~13-14 years of age...
Crazy...



Back in the day...

Yeah, I remember Nintendose also, that's where I came from. Didn't it split into AGB and GT? or something of that. I remember it splitting when it's downfall came.

yep, AGB and GT...
Fella by the name of Goombastomper was one of the main advocates for AGB... I forget who actually ran it, though...
"Going from a forum focused on home console gaming to one focused on a hand-held? Poppycock!", I said...

Of course this one started out with Crash and good ol' CamFu.
If it weren't for their expertise and leadership, and Neo's determination to hold it together through tough times, GameTavern might not be the hole in the wall that it is today.

Yeah never did find the reason for the falling out.
I don't know anyone.

But I knew AGB people hated coming here.

Now one site is dead and the other is on life support.

If we had remained as one, I would have been leader in no time.

And let's see... late 99/00 I think for me. And won't bother doing the age thing, I feel old as it is.

I remember joining around the Nintendose days...2000 I think. Certainly been around for long enough. Finally creeping up to near 5000 posts after 8 long years. I remember the whole AGB split being a huge deal. For a while I posted at both, but I can't do multiple forums. Too much work.

I'll just keep on the GT ship until it goes down.

I was 13 when I joined NDose in Dec. 2000. I also tried to do both this and AGB, but stuck with here...

Fun stuff.

'99 when I joined nintendodolphin.net, I was 13 years old - unbelievable.. I've known some of you longer than my current oldest friends (I usually "shed" friends, leaving old ones behind :))
AGB was run by Skouby Doo or something, I think. And somehow I think I remember his name and saw him on Facebook (never sent him a message though)..

Yikes. Yeah, that would be me, too, which would put me at 13 years-old when I joined. I think, anyway. I remember I was part of nintendodolphin.net, but I don't remember if I joined right when it started or what. I guess I found it after I heard about the codename for Gamecube, probably from Nintendo Power or Gamepro (wow, it's been awhile), and I guess I probably Yahoo!ed it (I don't think I used Google at the time). Who started that original site, anyone know?

I also think it's strange that you and I have some of the fewest posts while being two of the longest community members. Were you in Turkey the whole time, btw?
