You mean I've wasted 8 years of my life here? I actually thought it was more, I though I was in my late teens when I started to frequent the Aquademesne.

Shows what I know.

Lets have another 8 years. Then some of us can start bringing our kids here! Holy crap isn't THAT a scary thought.

Man, I started posting here when I was 15. I can't even remember what it was like to be 15 now...

i do have to think that for an internet message board community not sponsored by a corporate entity, 8 years is a pretty good long time...

Well, I'm glad you came back at least. The others need to take a hint from that!

What are you talking about? I posted sporadically during the period I was up in the NWT, but I've never been gone. I did change my handle twice during a period of 2 years, from Malhavoc to Arioc to the current handle. That might be what is confusing you Derithian.

I think there are a lot more factors contributing to Derithian's confusion, don't you worry!

2001 was the last great database wipe, IIRC.

Christ... I've been posting here since I was 14. I wonder if there are longer-running boards than this one.

Happy birthday Shrine!

Man, I can't remember when I started posting here. All of the significant videogame boards of my youth (this place, Eblana, the Mana Tree House) are blurring into one. Good thing so many of you posted on all three of them. And congrats on outlasting those other places, tOWS!

Just a few days before the birthday of my daughter (Candice), she turned 7 today (I've haven't seen her since she was a few days old though). I've been at the Shrine since 1997, back around when Wild Arms was released and Chrono Trigger was the other hot topic. I've always been around aside from times when I have been on vacations to various places.

Well, it's good to know we can still surprise one another after all these years...

Nice Seraphina!

Too true Gentz, where the #^*@ did that come from Seeker! I was joking when I said we would be bringing our kids here soon, or so I thought.

Seven years old, no less. Didn't see that one coming at all.

Yeah, I'm her biological father, but she has no idea who I am. Anyways, I don't talk about the situation very much at all, but I thought I did tell you at some point years ago (and possibly Zeus as well). If she wants to ever see me again, I won't be difficult to find; her mother may be another story.


By the way, I like the banner.

I was going to make some reference to Google and whenever she learns to use it, she might not have to ask around, when I ran into this. Frankly, the coincidence is better than any deadpan I could come up with:

Did you? Hmmmm...I felt like I got hit with a baseball when I read that like "Whoa, how could I not know this. *Eyes wide* @_@"
