I can't stand reading my old writings, on-internet or off.
That's the worst part about being a writer.

However, I do like looking at the old art I have done in the past. It's amazing to see the progress I've made (if any) over the years.
Apparently, I have been declared banished.
Good point, comparing things (writing) I did 10years ago to now, is like night and day. Can you post a long ago picture and currently?Originally Posted by Agent Proto
I used too many smiley faces and did ^_^...I think. I hate looking back at older posts and seeing what I was like.
The only difference is that I was a typical extremely horny and pervy teenager then. My sense of humor was a tad different as well. I still find things that aren't really that funny to other people people, funny.
I considered deleting my account and starting over as someone new.
Aside from my massive spam fests with Philoki and Paul? Always stopped by the likes of Leeza! curse her!
Moving those aside, I was a right dick, oh wait still am the difference being that I'm a better looking dick with age.
I used to be a little trout who had a couple of random arch enemies in the FF forums because they liked FFX and FFVIII and I would be an abusive annoying scrote at every turn. Now I've branched out and I act like this to everyone. It's progress!
Slowly, like society, I just began to degrade and become less sophisticated. Eventually, I even gave up on making my riddles rhyme... And if you knew me in real life, you would know how much of a big deal that is.
I was a lot more friendly and caring, I must concede. I've steeled myself over the years, as people often do when they grow up. I am still friendly and still caring, but nothing like what I used to be - I would consider it my personal duty to help everyone I did and didn't know through any kind of problem they came across. I had a deep empathy with those I knew back then. Likewise, I was a much more sensitive person when things happened to me. This had it's highs and lows. Far more highs than lows, I'm happy to say. I was a poet back then, too, and wouldn't hesitate to post my poetry into the Writer's Corner. I haven't attempted writing a poem for years, now...
I would spend a lot of my time socialising with everyone I possibly could from EoFF - phonecalls to random EoFFers were sometimes every other day. I would often have five different chat windows open at once, and I would be quick to respond to all of them at the same time. I definitely was in chat on a daily basis, or else in a Yahoo! Conference (sometimes with voice and/or webcam enabled). I would talk about my personal life more openly, because my personal life was more offline than it was online and offline people were less likely to trace it back to me.
The impersonal things: I posted more (My most active years were probably 2000-2003). I had poor grammar.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
I was a lot more excitable, a lot more long-winded, and a lot less jaded. I also used to sign off all my posts and I took things that weren't supposed to be taken seriously way too seriously. And I still played Final Fantasy games. I suspect I would probably find it embarrassing to read ten-year-old posts of mine, but I doubt there are any left here. If there are, there can't be many.
That said I probably would be willing to help restore old posts despite the potential embarrassment. Someone on staff should let me know what they want to know about how the process works. I've restored missing posts into several old databases (mostly FG's) so I suspect I'll be able to tell them something about it.
I thought this was actually an age thread.
I hate the person I was in my twenties...and I'm only 33.
What a waste of energy and thought on someone who doesn't exist anymore.
Boldly go.
You still are strange.
Young and naive and so utterly foolish. :s
I was a whiny little trout.
