Crazes

We seem to be in the middle of the Pokemon craze....so I was just wondering what your childhood crazes were :)

I was one of the Pog-generation :rolleyes:

Definatley the Ninja Turtles! :D

Definately pogs! A bit earlier, it was the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Transformers!!!

Yes, there was pogs a couple years ago, then there was the turtles before that, and the simpsons. Micro Machines were very popular at one point. Top Trumps (the cards). Oh and there was a time everyone had to have Nike Air or Reebok Pump trainers :rolleyes: that was stupid. Oh and those little pink squidgy plastic monster figure things, don't remember the name of them.

The biggest craze I remember was the turtles. I never liked them, just because everyone was so keen on them.

Me... all of the above + cyberpets

Oh yeah, Transformers, they're pretty cool actually :) Wish they'd rerun the cartoons.

Oh yeah, Tamagotchis too :rolleyes:

....they stopped them?:(

Back in my day ;) ( trying to sound old)


I remember begging to have my parents buy me the whole voltron collection ..i loved voltron...but eh i settled with Gi Joes and transformers :)

What?? you must be old;)

Stopped what?

Speaking of pogs, I have the whole collection of 50 Star Wars pogs that came in packets of crisps, in the collector's folder thing, still in the plastic it came in :) Figure it could be worth at least five quid in fifty years time :rolleyes:

Transformers... i didnt realize they did!

I never used those thingamajobbers.... i didnt see the "fun" factor in it.. ;)

the fun was the other person losing their pogs in a game.

Sort of like marbles? now marbles was a cool game..:)

Alltough i am using the term "alive" very loosly.

It is called "Transformers BEAST WARS!!" and it is very....VERY....v3ry!! i mean it is 31337 Haxor d00d Lame, ok! hehe

never knew how to play that :rolleyes: but i still played with marbles

i played a demo of that on the PC, and GOD IT WAS LAME!!!!!

That |_4|v|3 huh? ;) I haven't seen it, but sounds like a ****ty idea.

very bad? it was a thrid person game and teh controls were worse than Soul Reaver (only the first, the seconds cool)

Simon this is the correct way of using the color tag :

Note : remove the dot {this is to avoid being converted}

[.Color="#FF0000"]Welcome[/Color.]
or
[.Color="red"]Welcome[/Color.]


So here is a ColorfulWorld

Don't you have Rich textbox .ocx in your system ??

Yeah, I do, and it's properly registered because other code that uses it works :(

maybe you need v6?

OK Here it one that doesn't use a Rich text box control
and so no Preview option..
