Man, I still remember drizzt and iced.cappuccino, and they both had well under 100 posts. These days, I'll come across someone with 500+ posts every now and then and think, "Who the heck is this person?". I even remember Norrin, and he had 7 posts.

It's also interesting how some things never change. Crysi is still obsessed with dragons (especially in the form of a snake), people still complain about the smileys, and ZZAP still periodically calls for my resignation.

I wonder though... what topics will people be dredging up in five years from now? And if YWS is still around 50 years from now, just imagine your grand-child coming across a topic like this.

This thought scares me.

I like digging around for old stuff. I think I found the old YWS some time back, and there was a chatbox and everything, though I don't think I managed to say anything. It's great that this site has managed to flourish as much as it has though. YAY YWS.
The fault must partly have been in me.

haha, I probably thought the same thing back then. I was 14 when this thread started...can't believe I never posted in it lol.

ETA: I went through and I apparently did, but just to eat popcorn and complain about smilies, but it wasn't starred so I didn't think I did haha.
