Mine was this Samurai Pizza Cats roleplaying group on mIRC, back in... either 1996 or 1997. And I was only 8-ish at the time. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was actually hanging out with a bunch of sex-crazed furries.

Ahhh, good times.

The city of Townsville... is entirely mine!

A Final Fantasy VII message board back on

AOL.

Once more into the breach, my friends, once more. We'll close the wall with our dead. In peace, nothing so becomes a man as modesty and humility, but when the blast of war blows in our ears, then imitate the action of the tiger, summon up the blood, disguise fair nature with rage and lend the eye a terrible aspect.

A Free-Form Vampire the Masquerade chat room on EfNet in IRC called VampirePub when I was fifteen

I still had to use a shell account then cause nobody had heard of mIRC yet.

I most frequented NinRPG on the WBS forums. That and some other one... a little 'higher class' on their roleplaying hierarchy- instead of final fantasy characters, there were more vampires and stuff. I guess that gave it class? Oh, the old days.

Before that I'd go to the Final Fantasy forum on AOL. Very rare though.

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

I started out on SimCity.com back in 97 or 98 shortly after I got my frist computer with internet access and Windows. It was good fun. I developed multiple personalities, and everyone thought I was like 20something(Which I'm STILL not heh).

I was brought here by Lazzy when I briefly dated her before my freshman year of HS. I never left for some reason
