Hello, 64Digits.

Posted by NeutralReiddHotel on July 2, 2009, 12:50 a.m.

Okay, I have been a member of 64Digits since 2006. At first, it was exciting. There was an RPG, blogging, and games. Not only that, but it was the first time on any website actually talking to people. I never quite figured out how forums work, so I just gave up on them. Because of my dialup, flash chats never worked either, so me talking to people on the internet was out of the question. 64Digits finally let me do that, and hell it was fun (too bad though, I was just a noob in these days), the community back then was awesome.

Fast foward half a year: I'm still somewhat of a noob, but at least not half of 64Digits hates me. Blogging and commenting on other people's blogs was still fun. Because most of the time, I had to babysit my autistic brother, I didn't go out much. I didn't have many friends, nor did I talk to a lot of people in real life. Game Maker was something I was not good at, so I decided to learn web design. I learned HTML/CSS, PHP and Javascript, somewhat. I started making websites, and kinda stopped coming to 64D for a while (hell, I asked to get banned so I don't come back).

I get unbanned, get back on 64Digits… but things aren't the same – it seemed boring now. I start to get friends because I get sick of being inside with just my brother and a patheticly slow computer/internet connection. I used love as an excuse of my depression, but in reality I just wanted a normal life. I stopped my silly little first love (while I hated her and she hated me, we were ridiculously similar). I finally got somewhat of a normal life but it got boring fast. At this point (2 years ago), 64Digits is still not appealing to me. Starting my junior year, I fall in love again, she dumps me, and I get crushed. Still with a normal life, it's not as appealing as it first sounded. Love was the thing that made that normal life fun. I'm getting off track though… I tried to go back to 64D at this point, but the community I once knew is gone.

I know I'm not going to have the same experience as I first did when I joined 64Digits, but it would be nice to know that I actually have something to do when I get online. Most of the community I don't really know much, but what the hell. I guess this is my introduction to you that don't know me. I'll try to blog and post comments more often so I get to know the new community better, cause I'm seriously bored out of my mind.

Right now though, I'm sore as hell. I came back from gymnastics practice and every part of my body hurts, and I have a huge headache. I would show you some Game Maker projects I've been working on… but maybe at a later blog.

tl;dr - I've been a 64D member for a long time, and I've only been active my first few months here. Now I want to come back, but the community has changed. I'm introducing myself again for those who don't know me. Hello.

It seems that all the old 64 veterans are making a comeback.

Thats nice to see.

I think, like I, you'll be glad with the current 64D, its brilliantly mellow, like it was in its glory days!

So I too, welcome you back dabridge :D

I remember when you arrived here with that Sonic avatar.

Heh… I don't think you had a good reputation back then. (Maybe I'm thinking of someone else?) I don't know, but I remember thinking you were cool.

I remember you but that was later on when 64 digits was falling apart. But you were a more popular member then!

Hello there! I in absolutely, completely, totally and in no way recognize you in even the slightest, teensiest, most miniscule and unfathomably tiny way. Yep, not at all. Uh huh, completely unrecgnized. Speaking of which, who the hell are the rest of you bastards? Where am I for the matter? And who am I?!? I can't remember my name!!!

Ooh yeah, I'm DesertFox, you're dabridge!

In other words, welcome back, it's nice to see another veteran return :3

That's not very nice…

But I'll forgive you sk8m8trix because its in your fiery nature. (:D)

Just remember that I joined this site a long time before you joined, and the time I was reffering to could likely have been before you arrived on the scene.
