Ahh, 828677…
A 6 digit number I’ll forever have in my memory…
When I first came here, it was a small thread, small, but there were more people… I didn’t expect to stay here for a long time, just a post or 2… or 3 maybe even 5 at best…
We were near 9000, and my first comment here was
The comments are rising… 7000… 8000…
And I didn’t know what to do next… I didn’t even know if I could be accepted…
I stayed for 10,000 because I felt like that was more special, and it was me the one who got it. It was… “10,000” back then, I wish I could change it to something else, now I don’t mind it…
The thread was so young… and growing up is a big part of life, when I got here, I was in 2nd semester, and now this place is retiring…
First subject I remember talking about were strange oreo cookies, it continued for a while, and then I think burgers and ice cream, later I met someone, Cyan, who I think was my first friend on the site, we were pretty good friends. There were the rest who were nice too, such as some pony, YAB, Trilby, Xari, Mrmildock, 1984strat, etc.
Later on in the thread, I remember when Mrmildock left, I don’t think he was the first one to leave, but at least the first one to say so.
I thought that people would leave the thread when he left, but boy was I wrong, next one to come would turn out to be my best friend, TOPP, I ‘member always hanging with her and Cyan, later Ampers, TAS and TAS would join to make the OC6… which, as time progressed, it died.
There’s so much else to talk about, but I’m not sure how much a comment could have, so I guess I’ll just sum it up.
The thread always had its ups and down, many good friends have been made, some gone, some came, others come from time to time.
I’d like to see people seeing this thread, maybe in 1 or even 5 years reading this and ask themselves “Why did this happen?” We’ll be a small part of history on the Internet on a site, that’s not known by many people.
But it ain’t over yet, the link will lead us to the new part, which… probably in 5 years, will be over, or everyone left, or the site just ends forever…
Well… that’s all for now, there’s lots of things to talk about, but due to laziness and not much time, it’s all I’ll say.
Well, this is probably my last comment in this thread. I’ll just say it’s been fun, but the end of this thread is soon and even though I didn’t talk much, it was nice talking to y’all and making some friends, And even where I first asked about joining staff, heh Waves
