Member since 2005

[Timbjerr]

I've been an off-and-on member since 2002, and my older account shows a join date of September 2003, which is when PC moved from its older database to its current one.

Granted, I'm also prone to long bouts of inactivity, so I'm not the most reliable of PC historians, but those early days are fairly clear in my memory...so much staff drama, primarily caused by my own immaturity. XD

I'm technically a member since then, but I didn't even know/remember I had this account until about a year ago when I checked a really old email of mine. My join date to being an active member here wasn't until 2008, and that's what I really consider my join date to be. I registered an account in 2006 that I also forgot about to download ShinyGold.

My three year anniversary is this year and my two year mod anniversary is also this year. I'm starting to feel a bit long in the tooth!

 

[Morkula]

I will have been here 10 years this month. Damn I'm old.

I was a junior in high school when I joined. I was a senior in high school when I got modded. Now I'm in the third year of (part-time) graduate work...and I took two years off between college and grad school. I've been here forever. :(

Have you ever left PC for any real amount of time aside from a week off or whatnot? If no then... wow. Haha. I feel like I've been here forever and I'm really not that old at all.

 

[Tsutarja]

I'm a 2010 member here, but I feel more like a 2013 member, because that was when I became really active as a member of the community here. I immediately joined when I first found PC, so I've never known about it prior.

Nooooope, lmao. There have been several times where I've backed off and been scarce for periods of time, but I've never actually left PC for any length of time more than a week or so. I've never DLoAed either.

 

[Sheep]

I joined originally in 2006 so that's a long while ago! It'll be 8 years once October 2014 rolls around. Goodness how fast time flies. @_@;

 

[Arc]

2008 here! It's been almost six years since I've joined, oh god that's long. However, I was a very on-and-off user. Just like Timbjerr, I would have long strings of inactivity, hopefully I've rectified those periods of inactivity over these past months.

Just checked my old account, you locked some of my threads in 2005. I remember now, I was really immature in 2005 so I had a tendacy to create dumb/meaningless threads that makes no sense at the time. Not doing that now as a 19 years old.

Time really does fly, college was something far away in 2005, but now I'm a college student. Good to see at least one person I met in 2005.

 

[skyluigi2]

I've been a member since 2009 and clearly I haven't been fully active throughout that time. I've had long periods of inactivity over the years... I'd like that to change but it keeps happening anyway. I'll try my best to stay this time!

 

[Kura]

Is there anyone on this site these days who are active since 2005 or earlier? I was member here since 2005 and would like to see them again. Kinda miss the days.

Right here ;3~ My 10 year PC-Anniversary will probably come up faster than I will ever expect! There are lot of friends that I've met on here that have moved on. Some I still keep in touch with and out of those, many are doing really well so it's very happy to see!! :3 This site can sometimes be a bit drama-y but it's also very positive otherwise and a nice place to come and relax and browse on so it weighs out~ :3

 

[Aquacorde]

It seems like the pic on my old profile expired. Not sure, but do you remember the official Misty Club or the user Misty Lover 17?

Yoooo I remember the Misty Club. Well, the biggest one. Wasn't that Kaga and Tattsu's thing?

But I've been here on-and-off since I joined in July 2004. I think I checked in maybe twice a year from like mid-2007 to mid-2010 but otherwise was pretty active! PC's always been my internet home so yeah. Gonna be ten years this year oh boy.

It's always scary when anyone with a username like "Morkula" has anything to do with your threads. lol

 

[Treecko]

I didn't even know PC existed back in 2005, but if I did though , I would of joined back then instead of in 2012 like I did. I always wonder what it was like back then . The community always seemed like it was nice, but I'm always hearing it was much different back then and that PC's community between 2005-2008 was it's best time. Though of course the Pokemon fandom has changed a lot too since 2005 too. My 2 year anniversary is coming up in a few weeks (February 23). It's scary how fast time flies and it feels like 2012 was just yesterday.

What???

You've NEVER taken a DLoA before?!? Oh my god.

Morky Ula.

Not so scary anymore, yeah?

It was.

There were many more members on Pokémon community then now, and I mean a lot more. 2005 was the best time in PC, I don't know after 2006, since I left in March of that year. Many friendly people, but I was called odd because some of my English don't make sense back then. Also it was a lot more fun back then too. If I remembered correctly, the majority of the members on Pokémon Community at the time was either teenagers or pre-teens. Not many members above 17 in 2005, but average age range was 11-17 years old. I only knew one person in 2005 that was in their 20's out of the many members I talked with. Another thing is 2005 was the first time I was in a forum in my life. Internet was a new thing for me at the time.


Things changed a lot, I'm seeing a lot of newer members that are in their 20's and many new members above 18. We 2005 people or earlier were pre-teens/teens back teen are obviously now adults, so the average age range here seems to be higher now.


Anna:


About the Misty Club, I was in during 2005. I remembered being greeted and talked with Misty Lover 17. Yes it was biggest one on the forum with like almost 1000 pages. Good memories. Also posting pictures on forums was harder back then than now.


Everlark:


Not only Morkula, but also various moderators locked some of my threads. Reading my old threads today, it is soo funny and laughable. I can understand why they are locked.

 

[acatfrommars]

Been on PC for a few months now, I've seen a few older actives. :)

 

[Brendino]

I've got an account on another forum that I lurk that I signed up for in 2005, but I didn't find my way to PC until January 2008. Even then, I only lurked for a few years, signed up again at the end of 2009, and didn't become completely active until some point in 2012.

Still, it's strange to see how much PC has changed in these last 6 years, but very much remained the same.

 

[Nihilego]

I always just picture a really goofy cartoon vampire called Count Mork-yoo-lah and he seems much less intimidating. 8)

I picture a teddy bear. I know he loves it when I do that.

It's always scary when anyone with a username like "Morkula" has anything to do with your threads. lol

It's actually the most terrifying username ever, haha. I was so intimidated when I joined. d:

It was.

Yeah, I hear that a lot too. Why do you think so?
