Isn't it weird to look back on old posts?

[Scrub]

Anyone else ever do this kinda shit? There was a time I was embarrassed by it, but now it's like I don't even remember even being the person I was when I first started posting here. It's been what, nearly 14 years? That's almost half my life. It's pretty crazy to think about it. I remember being a kid and hanging out with like, Abdur and thinking how cool he was for hanging out with me even though I was so much younger than him. Now I think I'm older than he was back then? That's fucking insane.

I wonder how different all of you here are from what I remember. I wonder what some people here remember of me (please don't tell me lol). I really hope that everyone who used to hang out here back in the day is doing well for themselves and getting along great in life.

I'm more worried that you have 1200 posts in 14 years.

But no, reflection is good. Seeing how far you've come. I can't do it because looking at myself always makes me cringe, but I think I would be a better person if I did.

[Dhylec]

ah nostalgia..
if you don't look back & learn from your past, joo ain't growin yet

That's more like it

[KodiaX987]

If I could delete literally everything I made before 2012, it wouldn't be a moment too soon. I was a pissant little bitch as a teenager.

EDIT: My sig still fuckin' works?! Right, I'm just gonna take that out, nice and easy...

[PhotonDrop]

Pretty sure I'm still an asshole, just in a different way. :wacko:

[KodiaX987]

Behind each and every person, an asshole is hiding.

[yoshiblue]

I would hope so. Otherwise you would be going out and about without any leg or underwear. Just like someone's nightmares.

[Freeze]

Sorry.

[Scrub]

Can't believe some of you guys that still show up here. I know I say this every few years when I pop back in but it's really cool.

And hey why's this thread have so many views and so few replies? Stop lurking, sign in/make an account and join in, come on. Everyone here wants to know what you have to say, too.

This is every thread. My story thread has 25,000 views and only about four people post there, myself included.

[BogusKun]

I... couldn't agree more. The main thing that has been changing with me is priority of things to do in life. Since Iraq in 2006, I have been posting less and less, but I have been reading here and there.

Still working on editing my novel (manuscript completed though, yey).
Back in [graduate] school now and will be for a long while until I am published.

You never really die, you just get old and forget sometimes.

LOL trying to play with good old like full 1.5 second netplay delay. I hear that emulator netplay is a lot better these days though.

Truly we were born a decade too early.

How dare you!
I demand to be referred by my birthright!

I am a masshole!! and with my legions of maniacs,
Our brothers and sisters of the faith shall claim victory for our God once again!

Being called an Asshole in the nation of massholes is like being referred to as a peon!
Its insulting, but not in the way you intend!

You know, I asked a friend of mine with a bunch of tattoos once.

She told me that even if she didn't end up having that one piece that would be meaningful to her her whole life, at the least they would be little timestamps of who she was at the time.

Judging from my times here, it's probably best I don't have any tattoos myself. My body would end up a very silly place!

EDIT: IE, quick, change ze channel

[KaFKa]

I occasionally look back at my amateur attempts at being an author. It's good to see where you've been, otherwise you might lose track of where you are.

[HUnewearl_Meira]

I will occasionally look back in on my old Recollection Saga threads, for nostalgic purposes.

...

I really need to get back to those stories. I've got 6 more books to write.


I'm more worried that you have 1200 posts in 14 years.

Quality over quantity. What speaks volumes, is that we know and recognize Scrub, despite having only ~86 posts per year.

[PhotonDrop]

This really is the retirement home thread.

[Vanzazikon]

The booze brought me here.

[Nisshoku]

Curiosity brought me back.

[Palle]

Careful, you'll snap your aging back carrying all that bitter.

[Angelo]

This scares me, but I also love cringe comedy. I'll edit this post with my dumbest shit.

[Blitzkommando]

It's even more fun looking at old photographs.

We should play Monopoly on Pogo again sometime.

But on the condition that Nitro or Spike yells "ROLLIN'!" whenever it's his turn.

You gotta join our group again, we're on Discord now.

Also I try not to look back on my posts. I was a gross little shithead. Now I'm just a grown ass shithead.

Buddy, gimme the 411 and I'm there.

[Vanzazikon]

where that discord link tho

[DLShAdOw]

I tried wayyyy too hard back then. Still have fond memories of the IRC channel 05-07.

[parlkilkington]

It's funny looking back. Like... 'really, i said that!'

[Getintothegame]

This really is the retirement home thread.

No kidding

[Tymek]

My first post in this thread;

Not even remotely. It's actually really good.

Looking back on old posts has given me a lot of insight on what the world was like back then, what Phantasy Star in the west was like a long time ago, what the community was(communities were?) like in the past, etc.

It's really nice.

[NegaTsukasa]

It's definitely an interesting experience looking back at old archived posts in most forums I've posted on way back, even before twitter or FB was really a thing. I started this account my late jr year of high school in 2008. Times were so different. my life, my mind, my posts, and as Tymek mentions, how communities of the past engaged in topics.

[UndeadKing]

Its even more weird when you disapear for 10 years after your mother dies and completely abandon your younger brother.

[AlexCraig]

Was a stupid high school student then. Then life happened. Then shit happened. Now college. Mindset and maturity changes. Though salt tends to continue to accumulate.

[Meyfei2]

Couldn't agree more.
Amazing what can happen/change in 10 years.

[Dangerous55]

I know right? Oh hey, What's up?

[Nitro Vordex]

God, I got older just going back into this thread. Old ass dudes.

[Sord]

I was a constantly horny teenager with no sense of responsibility and an active mind. After a lot of rough shit, drug and alcohol phase, family death, it turns out I've just become a horny man with a sense of responsibility and an active mind and a sense of spirituality. Also I'm like ten times more handsome. Crohn's disease is a great incentive to eat healthy.

No regrets. Mistakes got me where I am now, which is a great place, honestly.
