On my way to the shower this morning I suddenly thought of this topic and even started putting a list together in my head.  Now as Tress will tell you Im an oldtimer around these parts  i joined in 04.

 

the list so far

 

1  You think anyone who does not remember DM version 6 is a newbie

 

2   You have had your post count wiped at least once

 

3  You get picked on by certain lighties in the Newbies board for calling them Social ORGS  (and yes they are ORGS!!)

 

4  You cant remember what your first sig looked like

 

5  you remember people from a while back who have left in a fond "old person remembering their youth" kind of way

 

6  you remember Orgs that people now dont even know existed!

 

7 You remember when the Wolfkin and the BT started

 

 

Got any of you own?  agree or diagree or just wanna tease me about these?  go right ahead!! :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

I remember when there were 3 days without a single new post anywhere on the main board... Does that count?

All of those apply to me as well dice... :ph34r:

 

8. You remember when Kath ran DM not Jason.

 

9. You remember when the leader of several of the Orgs were the same person.

 

 

I'll think of some more later...

10. You remember the reign of the AMI stick...

 

11. You remember Demi and his Norwegian flaunts... *shudders*

I've not been here nearly as long as some, but still when I look back to the Black Tower when I first got here, it is so very different.

 

A lot has changed.

I don't think I can be called an oldie. In the welcome thread at Wolfkin, I was called an oldie which I think is strange. I have been on DM for around three years(thrid year completes on 26 february, that day is my parents marriage anniversary so I remember the date :tongue: . I remember the time when I got scared by BT so much that it took me two years before someone managed to convince me to join. I remember the time when Graymen Tasks at Shayol Ghul used to scare me. I remember the time when Kin was more active.

 

I remember when Siggy Playground was Siggy auction(where I got my first siggy)

And trying to find this reminded me of the time when every post in a conversation via PM was like different conversation now.

 

Number which you think apply. In comparison to oldies, I think I would be a child or teenager.
