So it looks like I did it. Five years on Vizzed. Man, what it's been for me. I remember when I first registered on Vizzed, I was 11 years old wanting to play some retro video games like most of the other users that registered. Then I started to look through the board because I saw the post counts section for the first time. At the time, it intrigued me on how high most people's post counts were. I literally had a goal on here, which was to make 10k posts and top 10 in posting. This was back when geeo was actually number 1 in post counts, before David surpassed him and regaining it.

I remember during Tour De Vizzed that I would spam all over the place. All of my posts would have unnecessary things like "!!!!111!!" and caps on everything single words like "TEH EPIK DUK IZ COMING!!!!111!!"  I thought it was cool back then, but now I look at it and I cringed so hard. I seriously wondered what my 11 year old self was thinking.

I finally hit 12 years of age on Vizzed. To celebrate, I went on a huge posting spree, all filled with spam. I believe I made close to 100 posts that day. It was pretty hectic. The next day, I hit 1000 posts and I went on another posting spree. I remember I would always go on posting sprees. I'd have overdue assignments because of this.

After a while, I started to get older and older and got bored of Vizzed. So I took a few years off (I made some "I'm back" threads a bunch of times, but I was never truly back to Vizzed). I got more mature and I was thinking "Hey, I might as well check out Vizzed again and see what's happened since I was gone." To my shock, it changed a lot. The page layouts were different, the VGR had much more games than it did when it was in beta, more users have showed up. The downside I saw when I came back was the activity. Unless there was a Tour De Vizzed, it usually wasn't that active. It's changed now, though.

 I would like to summon those that have been my internet friends since I've joined Vizzed:

pacman1755 :
mike345 :
Minuano :
Juliet :

I would summon more, but they've all been inactive.

I do hope that I continue to be on Vizzed as time moves forward and changes keep happening. It'll be nice to see it grow into a much better site and to see more people change it and make a difference to it.

Congrats on making it to 5 years man!!

It's amazing you've been here since you were so young lol. That's one of the best things about this site, is it's accepting of all ages, and it's completely family friendly, so users of all ages have to interact in at least a some what civil and mature way. I hope you continue to stick around and post more, though maybe not so much how your 11 year old self went about it XD

Again, Congrats man! I think you're what they call a "Veteran" now lol.

You forgot to summon me lol. Anyways congrats for staying when you can! Not many members stay on the site for like up to 5 years so its really great to see you reach that far. I know I met you on the board we talked every now and then. We then talked a bit more before you disappeared if I can remember? Anyways its great to remember someone like you and to remember I spoke to you in the past before. Maybe I hope we can do some catch up talk? Its up to you, but I would very much have the talk if you don't mind. Anyways sorry for the ramble there I hope you can stay a lot more longer on vizzed. ^-^

Congratulations on reaching 5 years on here! You are now officially a veteran :3.

You don't know me (you know, aside from randomly interacting on the forums), but still, it's impressive to become a veteran :3. People rarely stay around a website for 5 years. I plan on becoming a veteran in more than 3 years xp.

And I joined Vizzed when I was 11 too! #11MasterRace
