What is happening to me? I logged back in after 15 years... another one of those "Oh, I finally remember my password from 15 years ago" incidents. Am I having a midlife crisis? I also read some threads of all of us from 15 years ago – disturbing to say the least.

Also apparently I have two profiles. One started in September 2001, the other in May 2002.

The threads still exist?  Wow.

I remember way back then I was a big Nintendo fanboy and would participate in the console wars.

There's some still left in my "Postings" – some really weird shit. Like a thread called the "Vestibule Love Thread" where a lot of people on this forum and myself start making ironic threats towards each other. Idolminds said he hated me and hoped I died. I guess I was like 16 or 17, so it makes sense that it all seems really bizarre and strange now. Probably some weird in-joke.

Wow, I don't remember that at all. But I totally believe I was an asshole back then. Sorry, ender.

Idol was an asshole? Whaaaat.

Can you share links to the threads as I am too lazy. I am so lazy I can't believe I even typed this out. Or that. Or that. Or that.

Read at your own risk:

http://www.ign.com/boards/threads/the-official-vestibule-love-fest%E2%84%A2.22333273/

I feel like we were making fun of someone or the Vestibule itself. I don't think anyone of us ever chatted with such inappropriate remarks before.

Whoops my bad. After careful reading, you said this:

"Ender, you suck. You are the worst person I have ever seen on these boards, and I wish the fleas of a thousand camels will infest your armpits."

And then I said I hope you died.

So, I'm actually sorry.

I cringed so much after the first page I couldn't go on.

edit:

I read the rest of the pages. I was a really strange 20 year old.

Maybe they use Gravatar now? I added an avatar on some service a couple years ago and I continue to be amazed at all of the places I see it now.

This was a good reminder that everything written on the internet is permanent and that I should never write a anything mon-anonymously. Or even anonymously.

I feel like we were all a bit of assholes back then because we were angsty teens and it was just on the popularity cusp of the internet.
