    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.

    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'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.

    It was 1996... TEN YEARS AGO. O_O

    Anyway. 1996 was mostly spent chatting on a Green Day guestbook where it was treated as a chatroom. The following years was spent chatting at Nintendo.com. Fun days those were.

    Apparently, I have been declared banished.

    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...
