Man, I remember the old days at this place...it's been years since I've been here.....
I remember joining this site when I must have been...oh...I dunno, twelve years old? Maybe eleven? I remember Ringe was 14 at the time...and I thought he (er...she) was soooo old. Now 14 seems like a little kid to me! I was in middle school then. I just recently turned 20. I'm in college now. An ivy league school and doing well for myself, but turning twenty really made me miss these old fun times I had here on DAB - one of the first communities I was ever a part of.
I checked on a whim and was shocked to see the site isn't closed. That the forums are still here. One of my biggest regrets is that the forums were on voyforums that doesn't archive all posts so I can't go back and read the good old days :(
I know nobody here remembers Rugbark (the Masterthief!) anymore. I wasn't really the biggest deal here. But I had a good time. I doubt I can even speak dibbun anymore (I totally forget how :D) I remember names and people but I'm sure they're all gone. I miss my closest friends at the time Ringe, and Cyprus.
I remember making parodies on the laughin place, and then somebody else doing it too (dont remember who) and kind of trying to make the best ones. I remember when the Treehouse forum was gone, and I wanted it back so badly I took over as forum administrator for it in intentions of keeping it as a private board (which of course never happened.) I remember when I took over Sparra Mail from Trubbly Otroot ("Its a grand old job" I believe he said to me) and then being an irresponsible kid and only sending like 1/8 of the messages on and never telling anybody until years later on another little return :D. oops!
And I remember when Cyprus had the idea to meet up with everybody from DAB in New York....when was it? 2010? Maybe. I think it probably was since I knew I was going to be at least 18. I was totally sure it was going to happen. Of course we all should have known it wouldn't but it was fun to imagine that it would have all those years later :D
Now of course, those years have gone by, and the site is only a distant memory to me, and my time as Rugbark. DAB-related items still live on in some of my passwords (no hacking my email now...:D) but I'm sure the site isn't active as it once was. The Fearsome Fiends no longer even exist! And I never actually got an account on the proboards, even though I was around for them (I think.) But when I saw my name on that loooong list in the hall of names, still etched there forever, it really really made me feel nostalgic.
I miss this site, and I know nobody knows who I am anymore (and even if they did they would know kid-me. Well...mostly dibbun-me, but even if we talked OOC :D) but I just wanted to stop in these hallowed halls and say hello :D So hi old site, and if anybody remembers me hi to them too :D
