I remember my first post at nintendolphin.net being this retarded, fanboyish post about all these conclusive "facts" I had discovered about how the PS2 was going to be better than the Dolphin. I bet if I could read that post now, I would be really embarrassed.
When I first started off there, I made a few enemies and got in a verbal fight or two. Guess it's all part of being new to the whole internet forum thing.
I also remember when DH was relatively new and I tried to take his side and back him up. He didn't really seem to want my help but I was anxious to make friends with the only other person I could find who held views similar to my own. This episode culminated in one of the members (can't remember who), commenting that "Death's hand was on Jeep's nuts," or something to that effect. Quite an interesting time.
5 or 6 years and two site moves later, I still come here. I still enjoy it and this is still my favorite of any forum on the internet. I like pretty much everyone here in their own unique way. I enjoy the fact that we have many different ideas and we can argue and get on each others nerves but we still come back and forgive each other. It's a forum, a place for expressing opinions in a more liberal manner than you do in real life but I still feel that we put our friendships on here before our opinions which makes this place seem a bit more real and closer than most forums I've been on. The most important part of that though, this place somehow, at least to me, seems miraculously devoid of cliques. This is something that amazes me as you tend to find cliques pretty much anywhere else you go.
Basically, I don't see me giving up posting here anytime in the near future. It's possible that I may fade away as my life evolves and I move on to new responsibilities and lifestyles, but I'm sure I will still check in every couple of months as long as the site doesn't go down and I don't forget the address. This place is my home on the internet and you never truly leave home.
