It's so weird checking back on this thread from time to time and seeing all the old names that keep popping up, and all the events that people recall. So many things I've forgotten over the years.

I haven't been active here since around the time the first movie came out. I still lurk for news, but that's about all I have time for. MP Said it best: life moves on. I have a wife and two kids now and very little free time. I had a lot of fun when I first joined up, by things change and I hardly recognize any posters here.

For my money, if you joined after 2007, you are still a noob.

Ryan made Burn an admin?? I thought I taught him better.

I'm glad to see peeps are still alive and kicking. I'm still alive. Older, busier, never here for obvious reasons. But age teaches you a few things, like forgiveness. **** went down, and now that I look back on it it was so trivial to the big picture.

I'm still at TTT, but we realized that we all got older, and life moves on.

I just wanted to pop my head in and quickly wish you all a Happy New Year. I may be back, I may not, but I do think of a lot of you from time to time.

Burn, when things get tough get up, walk away from the keyboard, drink a beer, play a video game, and don't get sucked into anything too heavy. Don't ever take any of this too seriously.

Cheers.
MP

Forgiveness is divine, but never pay full price for late pizza.

But seriously, burn as an admin caught me off guard as well.

Seems all the other OG's have gone with the wind again. Guess I'll hold down the fort for a while. >:oP

Some of us are always here. Lurking. Scrolling. Judging.

I joined back in August 2001 I think my original username was Primal Prime. Seibertron.com was the first online community I joined. I use to have the original email notification and account activation. I might still have a hard copy somewhere.

One of these days I've going to have bring my nTo logo back and see what would happen now. :lol:

Yes, lurking, I can relate... Question: Does lurking count towards my old schoolness? Because, not long ago, I often consulted this website for TF information (seriously, for a time, this and TFWiki were my two main TF resources).

However, all the kitbashing convinced me to do a minor bash of my own. Then, I discovered a "gun mode" for a Shockwave, not described anywhere else (checked and confirmed). What can I say, I felt like "sharing..." So I registered...

I have an interesting robot collection - mostly TF's, many Micronauts, and mecha/Gobots/Blockman, too. I love discussing toy histories.

And then I accidently double-post...Sigh, back to noob status for me...

I haven't been here forever. And then there were plenty of times where I left for a while and came back. (I know, I'm sorry). But I made a profile here about 8 years ago. Around the time the first Bayformer movie came out. I've been a fan of Transformers since Beast Wars but it was that trailer of the first movie that made me google transformers and it led me here

Holy **** it has been that long...! (The movie coming out, I mean.) I still remember being in the theater at the very 1st showing, and everyone cheered when Peter Cullen's voice was 1st heard.

I've been around a long time!

Except I was a serial lurker until 2013-ish. Woops.

I joined in 03, and fell in love with the old World Domination threads. In highschool I'd go to the library and pretend to work then switch to seibertron.com when no one was looking. I posted my sprite comic back when the party forum was here, hung out with Locust and Halo a lot on here. lots of irreverent fun.

I'm amazed I lost my crown as top poster in the years I've been gone.

You old farts remember the Building Threads? Yeah, I started those. The 1st 2, anyway. >:oP

You're welcome.

by **Psycho Warrior** » Tue Jul 28, 2015 1:59 am

Yeah you might have started them, but I made Randy the Random guy, and between me, Locust, Shadowman and Halo we started a breed of insanity that ran rampant through this site for years. Fun times.

I joined in mid 2003 but i was using it before that, back when there wasnt much to the site. names always been the same just was one word then had an underscore.

This thread, unlike most things, needs more Blast Cannon.

The class of 2003 seems to be well represented here.

I'm pretty sure I joined under another name, but I really can't remember what it was.

Also, hi.

Hi.

So are you Danish or Canadian?

Oh, snap... I just realized that 4 days ago marked 12 years for me.

Good times...

I don't think anything ever topped the World Domination thread. That was classic.

Yeah, I declared myself Emperor of Brazil, it was fun. Right up until someone--and I can't remember who for the life of me--started messing with things. Then we had to start implementing rules and it all sort of fell apart.
