16 Years a member - where has time gone

Greetings I was checking some old posts and notice how long I have been a member. That was a great night in the Nethouse in Renelagh, watch a live feed of a Quake match in France on a projector up in the corner of the cafe, when I was first told about boards. There were some of the orginal founders present that night.…

16 years. You're a young un ;)
I used to work in an internet cafe back in the day. Outside dublin though. Still we'd stay open half the night playing quake and starcraft.

Time is strange. To think I joined only 8 years or so after it was founded. Now it's 17 years since I joined.
Joined first in around 2008/09.
A lot happened in the next 4 years. Finished school, finished college, moved city and got my first real job.
Then the next 12 years…no change. Depressing really.
