*sigh* just drop the grudge against poor poor Cas already... it's 2 years ago now

Well... I'm not as old as you people, but I did read the old stuff. There's a few things to be missed as well...

The super old stuff

-Dakota's monopoly on best writer/poet
-Syrus the Magnificent... I don't think Solar mentioned that name yet ^_^;
-22sa and Japan mixup XD
(surprise surprise but 22sa actually isn't as old as people seems to be... he actually joined in the same month as me O.o)
-22sa and his quick advances in the popularity ladder, which was equilvalent or even greater than Kairi today (just without mod promotions)
-evolution vs creation arguments
-truth/dare sharing
-Kwesi's active days (all of those posts are certainly very entertaining)
-even less strict than now, yet it's magically less SPAMmy than now... most likely because PC was a lot smaller back then, but still it's worth mentioning

The semi old stuff

-MOTM category: favorite super moderator whose name starts with a D
-political arguements
-Hitmonarch (Iveechan), Scythemantis and Bio Sceptic ruling the entire Pokemon General forum (and other metacognitive discussions... if there's any intelligent threads out there, this trio will be there for sure)


I'll think of more later ^^;

that could be due to the fact that back when I joined, PE2K members filled all the staff positions and controlled the entire forum.

I remember that from the time I joined up till feb of 2003, PE2K members were growing ever angrier at PC staff, especially Kwesi, until PE2K left PC, taking a good percentage of the members with it. This is, as I call it, PC"s quiet era, where members like Arcanine, 22sa, Frostweaver, and Haruka-chan first joined, and a few older members like me, Shadow, Alyssa (I forgot what her username was at that point), and Dakota started to emerge as big posters.

hmm... I dunno... Dakota always seemed kinda active to me when I was doing my reading, and even though HChan, 22sa and I all joined within June 12 days apart from each other (22sa first, then HChan and finally little little me), I stayed in the game forum all the way until late July O.o; (I remember what's my first post in OC, and that sweet sweet cute and loving little post after mine ^-^) so don't include me really.

22sa was well known within 10 posts, and everyone knew him within OC within his first 50 posts, and that's a legend in PC in terms of the popularity level. He was a Kairi without mod promotion. *sigh* I should seriously phone him again someday...... after I figure out something to call him for >>;

Alyssa's first account according to as far back as our first reference go, is Gym Leader Clair I believe... I think that's the first one ^_^; Diana was the most famous (lol and lasted the longest) out of all her accounts.

- People Fan Club (O__o)
- All the stuff Solar said (I'd say something else here but I think she doesn't like it)
- Zeke's Apple Orchard (and that-- it came from PE2K to PC. It became pretty lame in PC, but I do have to mention it was starting to get lame in PE2K already)
- Ash's name was Kenta before Ash.
- PC opened a Sunday...I think...
- PEOPLE UNDER 13 WEREN'T ALLOWED TO JOIN!!!!!!!!!! -___-;; I tried joining but it said that if you were under 13 you needed parent's permission. So I got my parents' permission. Then they had to fill out this huge form and "fax" it--- but there wasn't a fax number anywhere!!! >__<
- I was Crystal and pretty unoticed XDD

I think this stuff is all the way from...from...from...er...late 2002-early 2003. That's before it reseted, right? I think this is all correct, as far as I know...
I remembered you in one of Dewgongstears' RPs... yeah...I missed Rping back in the old PC... XD

*cough* I seriously didn't really like you because of you being backshipper... >>; Ahem I mean 'obviously' it's a Kenta/Marina pair ;p *cough*

Oni Flygon I think all of your signatures are always promoting Pokemon Adventure (which is indeed a good manga by just reading summaries of them) and always have yellow's picture somewhere in it. And then there's Purin with the Blue Avatar ^^
