Off Topic / Just checking in for the first time in many years, how are we all?

Hey there everyone!
I was just watching this video in an ongoing series I've been following by youtuber Redlyne yesterday, and to my surprise, Blockland made an appearance!
This led me to have a little look at the forums for old time's sake.
I've not posted in over seven years now, although Blockland definitely has crossed my mind a few times.
It's so strange for me because Blockland was such a huge part of my childhood. I first started playing in 2005 when I was only five or six years old, and now it'll be the 20th anniversary of the game in a short amount of time. Don't even get me started on Age of Time. I remember that Green Hills were some of the very first words I learnt how to spell in life because of the old map loading screen.
I was very sad to see that there's been quite a few deaths in the community in recent years of people I remember playing with often, such as GSF Ghost and Bushido.
Have there been many others that I'm not aware of, I wonder?
It's nice to see that although the community has quietened down in the past decade, there are still occasionally events/reunions of players etc.
Life has been very good to me although definitely brutal at times too.
I do sometimes still game although there isn't much time to anymore when you're in your mid-twenties. I'll have to give Blockland a play over the coming days!
I hope you have all been well, give me updates and check-ins!
