Memories without NANNY MANUS.![]()
FFAlways [1] [2] and to a lesser point, FF Citadel - The two websites I originally went to in order to get information on FFVII & VIII. FFAlways to this day remains one of my inspirations when coding for EoFF. It was a very small site that only covered two games and had no interactive areas, but it had stuff on it that no other site thought of.
Yahoo! Chatrooms - Where I spent my extremely early days chatting.
WWF.com - Back when WWF was cool.
All back in 1997-98. I discovered EoFF in 2000, these were my first forums.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
The New Leaf Academy - a website dedicated solely to the Suikoden series - was my first 'real' adventure on the internet as a whole. Sadly, it was removed a few months after I joined and made a name for myself, although the majority of the members have since migrated to an assortment of other forums, with a small group of them (the ones I knew the best) taking residence up at Tenzan Pass. I'm a member there, too, but I hardly talk to anyone there anymore. Before then I only used it to play Diablo. Occiasionally I would play
I had a near undefeated record in checkers, a decent record in chess, and I used to wipe the table clean with those I played scrabble with.
Downloading stuff for The Sims, and looking up Police Squad!
Money, power, sex... and elephants.

I lived on Fanfiction.net for a while, 'til my brother showed me EoFF. I was... 11? o.O; Then I went to stuff like neopets and crap.
2 years ago, 13 years old. vvvvvv.53><.c0N\
Well it's true.:rolleyes:
I'm so jealous of all you people that started going to Neopets several years ago. I only started going in 2004 and I missed out on so many fun plots ;_;
(this has been a public service announcement by your friendly neighborhood Neopets addict.)
To keep this on-topic-ish... my first "real" forum (non-InsideTheWeb) was BlizzForums, which I joined in early 2003, I believe. But because I didn't have internet at home for another year after that I could only get to it at school. So I ran to the computer lab between classes so I could get on. Good times.
I was around eleven or so when my dad first allowed me to try out our dial-up connection. He was showing my brothers and I how to look up video games and cheats for them. I think he let us use Lycos for all of our searching. That was my first memory regarding my using of the internet, and I recollect no other significant uses of it until I played Diablo on Battle.net.
Mine was also in 1996. 11 years old, and didn't have the internet at my home yet. I still have the same hotmail address that I made that day, a few weeks after I started high school, still in active use.
This was also around the time that I discovered DragonBall Z (my hotmail address is DBZ related), so a lot of my time was spent absorbing as much as I could about the thing. That was probably where my prowess for using search engines was cultivated. AltaVista was the greatest thing ever back then...
