How long have you been on this forum ?

I've been here since 2003. 13 and a half years. Wow has it really been that long. It seems like only yesterday I signed up.

If they told me it'd be twelve years, would it of made it easier?

Too long! Heck, I'm old enough to remember when Ziming was Hellraiser, Bambi was Baihu and Sonikku was... a dude. :shock:

Started lurking in (I believe) 2005; finally signed up in January 2006. I cringe at my early posts [-(

Too goddamn long. If I told my younger self on the forum where I would be in life today, he would never believe me. I think it has been over a decade, hasn't it?

A few months longer than my join date in that list Bambi posted, I joined on the old forums. Not as long as most of the people who posted before me on here though. Who was the host of the old place, was it gamespot.com?

That was the one! Fun times, though some of the characters that existed back then seem unbelievable now! :shock:

I joined in 2003, never saw the old forums. Heard some fun stories about them and certain particularly weird members though. Used "Keiya" as my username for the majority of my time on here. It was a fun and great community back then, so warm and welcoming, it felt like people were actually close to each other. Luckily some remains of that atmosphere are still existent, but things obviously are different today. I guess we've all grown older and changed quite a bit, and many just grew out of it and left for good. I've been absent (and occasionally lurking) for ages and probably wouldn't have returned to this place if it wasn't for last year's Shenmue III announcement.
