This was the first message board I ever joined. I was 15.
I'm 21 now. I don't do coding anymore. Heck I barely did back then. I was a 15 year old just futzing around with a pirated version of VB6 that I got on Kazaa.
Now I'm into visual arts and all that good stuff.
For some reason I always gravitate back here and poke around though.
Weird stuff.

Don't you hate that you're going to grow up eventually believing what they say about computers in movies because you lose all that knowledge?

But way back many years ago when you use to be young you did do coding.

VBForums posts have a way of repeating themselves too.

yes, if this forum could be refactored for redundancy, there would be about 12 threads, 10 of them would be in chit-chat.

I became a member here in 2036, after the war against the machines, then I got sent back in time and now I've got to find some chick called Sally or something. What a pain in the ass.
I don't live here any more.

Re: This was the first message board I ever joined. I was 15.
I joined in 2000 when I was 30. I used to come back around my birthday each year. Each time I got a birthday email I'd come back for a little bit. Now I'm hanging around more since I need SQL help from time to time and its one of the very few websites that my company doesn't block. I also have more to contribute and try to help out where I can.

I was just thinking the other day: "What happened to PeteD?" Last I remembered, you went on a rambling tour of south Asia, and ended up in Australia looking for work.
