Yeah, I was a shitty little highschool student back when the game came out, now I'm working full time in a hardware store... I want my goddamn youth back. :P

MMORPGs are the fu**ing devil, by the way.

ya i had to sacrifice a couple girlfriends to the warcrack. since the greater new york finance industry collapsed i don't work much.
seems like you guys have done a bunch of editting/moding. i remember when changing the color of the rocket pack or explosions was a big deal

Hi Aflack,

Good to see you around. Feel free to hop into the 1.5 thread and throw in your thoughts as to what improvements you'd like added to the game.

Well, this is a pleasing sight. . .people still play, after like 6 or 7 years of this game being in existence.

Welcome back, it's nice to see some familiar, and uber old faces around.

I remember when I first started, ohh the horror. . off talking too much, spamming, thinking I was funny, when I wasn't x_x

Ohh the terror of a 9 year old playing a game with 17 year olds. . .anyway, still nice to see you all, see you around.

I remember having 10 hours a month Dial-up. And taking up all my siblings share of the hours trying to figure out how goddamn old Tasiin was. He kept insisting he was 4
