As the title says, a belated happy 5th anniversary to the forums. Woot and all that noise.

To be honest, it only just dawned on me, and that's purely because I was busy browsing my profile and glanced up at my join-date. I'd love to say we've gone far... but it'd be a shameless shameless lie, so instead, I'll just say that with any luck, we'll stay in contact through the site for another ~5 years, and see how things are down the line. Though it's somewhat embarrassing to see that we have a total of about ~10 active members. 15 if we're lucky. Not brilliant for a forum which has had ~150 accounts, even if a few were repeats or secondary ones. Or spam accounts.

Good god, have I grown up since this place opened though. Back then, I was a whiny prima-donna emo teenager who was entering college the next year and spouted f-all to everyone he could. Now I'm a whiny adult with somewhat delusional tendancies, who's unemployed and looking for work, while simultaneously trying to raise enough money to blow on his video games. Seriously - I can't wait for the job market to pick up again. Then I can finally get the closest thing to a dream job - working at a video game store. But only because it means I'll get a discount on my purchases.

Five years. Man, it's been that long. And in all that time.....Dear God, I've gotten so ranty and ramble-y. My first posts around here barely made it over a few sentences, now I can hardly post anything without babbling on for ages. It's a good thing my writing has also drastically improved. XD

Also, I couldn't seem to go one post without adding a XD or a =]. Pbbt glad I stopped doing that. XD

Looking back at my old posts:

1 - I can now see exactly what people meant when they said I made long fanfic chapters. I still don't say they're "long," but they're giant blocks of text....

2 - Great. Looking back through my old posts reminded me of Thomas. Sad

3 - Sadly, this is still one of my best banners. Then again, I haven't worked in the area of banners for years....

4 - How many times am I going to remind myself that I need to continue my old fanfics? TLE is like 6 years old now and I never even got through Book 2....



We've had out good times, our awesome times, our bad times and our disasters, but no one can replace this virtual home away from home. I can't see myself not checking up on this place regularly unless there's quite literally no one around.

Here's to five aisen-years! And another five!

Also, roleplaying is still fun. I'm not really in a rambling mode now, so... woohoo! Five fookin' years!

...Am I the only one here who wasn't here from the beginning?

Okay wow actually apparently I joined less than a year from when the site was made, thought it was later. Although I only really started properly regularly coming on in like 2010 or something.

Good times. Even if young me was a retard that makes me cringe with ever word he utters. And I just know these words will look just as horrid to me a few years down the road...

Hmm, now that our numbers have dropped I think that Aisentrip might actually be possible. I mean everyone is at least 18 now, we'd only need to wait until half of us that are overseas come over  Cheesy

Weirdo, I think Kendrix has you beat there..... I think...


I don't like looking back at myself... so I won't  Tongue

Happy Five years though!  Wink

The sad thing is that I still have roleplaying ideas for other stories in my head, but the chances of any roleplay going now is pretty damn low.

The army, contrary to popular belief, gives plenty of free time. Also, OJ's still kinda going on.

As I found out when I tried my Team Rocket RP, it's not a lack of time, but a lack of interest and motivation. If you can't get people motivated, RP grinds to a halt.

Weirdo, I think Kendrix has you beat there..... I think...

Site says Kendrix joined two days after the site was made so...

The sad thing is that I still have roleplaying ideas for other stories in my head, but the chances of any roleplay going now is pretty damn low.

I keep entertaining the idea of rejoining OJ or something but then start questioning whether I'd have time/motivation to post regularly. Also the fact that my writing kinda sucks dissuades me, it's a shame really.

I'm not sure who you mean but either way my point was about the people who still frequent the site.

Could always make a new casual roleplay with a generic plot or whatever.

Casual RP would be good - I kinda want to play a bard or something at the moment, but I just don't have a way to make use of said idea.
