With the announcement of the remaster of RTW, I've been looking through the old posts in the forum, and man does the nostalgia hit hard. The days of hundreds of users visiting every day may be gone, but the fond memories live on.



Edit: I did the math, Ive been on here for nearly 14 years. Thats wild.

Nostalgia is hitting all of us rather hard...

And I've been here for 16 years now. 2005.

Last night I spent an hour or so just looking through old threads from like 2010 and you just see all the users who I used to chat with every day and now have moved on with their lives one way or another. Which makes me wonder why the hell we are still here.

I kid, I kid. This place has a weird hold on me that keeps me coming back, even after all this time.

Some of us grew up here - like me - joining when we were young and now we're kinda... well, not old, but we're not getting younger either.

TW Org for me is pure nostalgia and I'm perfectly fine with that. Glad to keep this old little place running.

Excellent way of putting it! I joined when I was just 15 years old, and did a lot of growing up on here. I vividly remember when I first joined I was arguing about something and another Orgah told me "you would be taken a lot more seriously if you used proper punctuation." Never made that mistake again.

I have been here for some time as well. But started in my 40s so not the same experience as ya'll.

So this evening I found out that the dog who I initially applied to adopt got euthanized for severely attacking his owner just a month after being adopted. But because that dog was adopted before I could, I went with another dog, who I have had for almost two years now and adore. I'm completely floored- had that other person not adopted that dog, things would have been very different. Crazy how things work out like this, isn't it?

Doggo! Love dogs, glad you adopted a little canine to keep company. Pets make everything much nicer.
