Author Topic: What's your story?  (Read 4847 times)

Been playing computer since i was like 3. Played CD games that you insert into the hard drive. Was a stuff computer. Then we got a mac. Than got another.

I remember how I recruited people and made a little army for blue of around 10 people.
HOLY snake-POP I WAS IN THIS ARMY
:U

Holy forget, op's story is exactly as mine except i got bored of runescape asdasf i love you.

I started using a PC running Windows 95 back in 1997, playing some learning games. Used AOL on a very limited (kids?) account in 2000, when I was 6 years old. In 1998, we got a new HP Pavilion that was the fastest PC we owned at the time (600 MHz), compared to the older's 133 MHz.
In 2003, we got a new PC running Windows XP. Used that up until I got my own PC later that year, running Windows 98. Upgraded that to Windows XP, used that for a while until 2005. This PC was also pretty old, as it had a 600 MHz Celeron processor. During that time, I found this forum.
Late 2005, I got a Mac Mini, and was unable to play Blockland until a year later due to there not being a port for Mac OS. In 2006, when I got my first laptop, a Compaq Presario C300, I was able to play Blockland again, and bought the retail version a few months after it came out.
Around 2007, I also got a new Dell Optiplex 320 and a matching monitor. 2007 was also when I bought Garry's Mod, and when I starred in the hit "The Idiots of Garry's Mod". Later 2007, the Compaq broke on me (screen hinges). Also 2007 or 2008 was when I made the (mistake?) of being in TIoGM2 (I hated it for the most part, cept for a certain part).
Later in 2008, my Dell Optiplex 320 died, so I custom-built my first PC with parts that I bought from Fry's Electronics (in the store). I call it the MigaCBPC, or the MigaAwesomePC. 2009, I started helping others with an Android porting process to devices not made to run Android, on a small, peaceful forum. Also 2009 was when I started to get more into Linux, which I've heard about and used many times before. 2010...I basically became a weeaboocigarette, started hating furcigarettes, and all that good stuff. 2011, I'm upgrading my PC to it's limits. (2.4 GHz Core 2 Quad, 8 GB of RAM, GTX 470 or 480).

By the way, we still own the old 133 MHz PC. It has an FM soundchip, which is the same one used in the Sega Genesis. Quite awesome.

Now then, any questions?

First computer was a HP with Windows 95, I played the same stuffty games over and over, we didn't have internets because we were kind of poor.

In like 2006 I got my current computer, discovered youtube, was an apple fanboy.
Soon after I discovered better sites than youtube, became anti-apple.
Discovered internet memes, thought they were the funniest thing ever.
Found this game in 2009, really had no interest in the forums.
Found the off-topic board, liked it, decided to stay, you guys may all be bandwaggoning grammar national socialists and furcigarettes but I've kind of grown to like it here.

I was like 5-6, and my mom introduced me to e-mail and I set one up.

For a few years, I was playing flash-games and loving with my computer to no avail.

I found a game called ChallengeYou 3 months after it was created, I played for 1.5 years and went on to Roblox.

I played that for a year and then I went to Blockland.

I can only describe the past with a certain feeling, which is "cold"

I think my existence has the purpose of playing Sandbox games.

First computer at 4-5, Whateverrrrr, no internet until 2nd grade, RuneScape, Adventure Quest, tons of other MMO's, Lots if WoW... And now I'm here. Three computers later.
I don't even have the Blockland client anymore. Hahaha

Same story as OP, more or less.

Birth -> Age 4 -> Computer -> Age 9 -> LOLINTERNET -> Age 10 - > GUYS IM GURL -> Age 13 -> 'Sup -> Age 14 -> mmm.

Yup.

SeventhSandwich got his first computer at age 5.
I started playing Club Penguin
That would mean you're around 10- years old now since it came out in 2005? Or did you not start when you were 5?

Anyways.
When I was younger I liked Nintendo a lot. I played on my game boy color a lot. Specifically I played Pokemon. I think, besides some buggs bunny game, that was the only one I played. Some time around 2000 we got a laptop. I loved playing Roller Coaster Tycoon and Zoo tycoon. Especially with the Dinosaur expansion because I would reenact Jurassic Park and pretend that the electrified walls mysteriously broke. Then came the gamecube and gba. I played that both of them a lot. More so the gba since it was portable. In second or third grade, I discovered Runescape. I played that until third or fourth grade, because I never really got into it. My friend did though. He's still trying to make a decent private server now that Jagex forgeted up the official game. Sometime between 2007 and 2008 we got a mac. I never really liked it because it was different then the laptop that I was used to, but it was faster, so I used it. My friend (the same one who I mentioned before) showed me Blockland, but sadly he didn't like it and never bought it. I joined some time in v8. I would play nonstop all day hosting fort wars and odd builds that I made. On Christmas 2008, I got my alienware, and with it The Orange Box. I enjoyed the games that came with it, but I never got sucked in as much as most people. I also still played Blockland until one fateful day when my router died. We got a new router, but to this day I have not been able to port forward on it. Exactly one year ago, to the month, I moved in with my dad. I was able to host then on our old router but it also broke. Then we got the same piece of stuff router that I have at my mom's house. Anyways now I have a lot of games bought through Steam. The latest being Dead Rising 2. I play on the computer from school's end to 9:00-11:00. No social life, but I don't care. People are all religious freaks or idiots anyways.
I probably got most of those years wrong.

In second or third grade, I discovered Runescape. I played that until third or fourth grade, because I never really got into it.

So you stopped starting to play when you started to stop?


My sister would buy me those really crappy kids learning games for her computer and let me play them, when I was a wee tot. Along with a game boy, dude that thing was bad ass it was the pokemon special edition and was gold and silver and changed colour in the light.
Then I got a game boy advance SP shrek edition. Yes my family thought it was cool to buy me the SPECIAL EDITIONS. Then when the ps2 came out my mom got me one for Christmas when I was like 6 and got me awesomesauce games like frogger, this weird pac man game, the powerpuff girls and spyro.
Then when I moved to south jersey I got my own (old stuffty) computer and my mom got me AOL Kids..Woo.  Which was time monitored and signed me off at like 8pm.
Then my neighbor who was 2 years older than me was a game freak and made me play video games with him all day, we then became best friends and played Yu-Gi-ho together and watched Dragon ball Z and one piece and Yu Yu Huackasho.
Then I got a better computer (dell again) from my sister. downloaded Aim and Msn on it. Played the hell out of rune scape and the Sims2. The I got a wii and played Guitar Hero and stuff and Resident Evil 4. Then I sold my Wii and bought an Xbox 360 and played COD, F.E.A.R 2, Silent Hill games, Halo, all those fun ass games. Then last Christmas I got this stuffty HP Laptop. Brand new. Played rune scape occasionally, sims3, steam, mostly played Nintendo games instead along with silent hill homecoming as a exception for the 360. then when i met JD i got this forum account.
There ya go.
