I wonder how many people actually joined because of this video :lol:
This video I found it to be quite informative, I think more people should watch this video first before doing anything on the RPC. I have to admit though I was a slightly amused by it though it’s still a great video.

I was just reminded of another event from my earlier days visiting RPC, it was at the time when I occasionally tried to look up any information I could find about the existance of Rayman 4 and to hopefully see an announcement of it, from that I remember stumbling upon an April Fools thread/post here about Rayman 4: Attack of the Zombie Rabbids or something similar to that, couldn't find it unfortunately, but I recall being disappointed by the fact that it wasn't real. :lol:

I could be completely wrong on this one since this memory is a bit blurry, but I'm pretty sure this happened and it was this site I visited.

(Also, I'd be thankful if someone would be able to find that thread/post, if possible) :wink:

Yep! That's precisely it!
(You deserve a Ting donation!)

It seemed pretty stupid and unrealistic, with it using artwork from the original cancelled Rayman 4, while at the same time saying it's mainly based on the Raving Rabbids prototype, but I was highly unaware of the forums even existing during that time, so just seeing people having a discussion about Rayman 4 made me content as a Rayman fan.

This honestly makes me realize how empty the feeling of being a Rayman fan is before being a part of RPC, really aside a couple of friends that grew up on the series with me during the time, no one really knows about Rayman around these parts.

I guess at the end of the day we all have to thank Humch for the existence of this place. :wink:

Oh yeah definitely we do.

Also though, I only knew about it because a relative gave me Rayman 1 when I was 8 and I played it excessively. I returned to it a couple of times and never really played past Band Land on those returns. Around 2012 I actually paid €5 on the Vita when I seen Rayman for sale on the PS store so I clearly still liked it a lot at that stage, then in 2015 I was emulating it on an Android box just because it had the power to play it properly and that's when I realised it was supposed to be 60fps unlike the choppy PAL Vita version.

Anyway I played Origins as I said at the end of 2017 and start of 2018, then Legends and started playing 3 as I'd never played a 3D Rayman, got lead here a few times from googling for help then joined here in February.

That's when I proceeded to finish Rayman 3 and play Rayman 2 and 100% the others Ubiart games then complete Rayman 1.

I kind of wish I had played the 3D games years ago and the UbiArt ones when they were brand new but then again I still loved playing them all just recently :)

I still can't believe I stupidly didn't play Origins for 6 years because my friend told me it wasn't great :lol:

Hey, at least you played all the games. I still haven't played the UbiArt games (mainly because I have so many other games to finish and I still have to fix my 3DS). I'm glad I picked up Rayman again back in 2016. At least I know now that I've never forgotten about him :proud:

I'd completely forgotten about that stupid topic! It even contains a snapshot of the old "Prolesverse", with my addressing roles as "dear". Crazy times...

Lol well it was april fools that day when that was posted. And anyway I could qualify all the antics that came up during the recent April Fools' Day as being really crazy times too! (well at least for me anyway) :)

Man whenever I think of all the times you guys must have had years ago, it makes me wish I had joined sooner instead of randomly wandering around the forum.
(excuse me if what I'm saying doesn't make sense It's like 2:30AM here and I feel so sleepy rite now :lol: )

Well, the crazy times I referred to were those of what was known as the "Proleshroobish love quartet", which went on for about four months!

Oh I think I know the members who were involved in this quartet lol. 8)
Tbh I did know about this a month ago when I did some "researching" through the forum. What I found even more curious than that was this:

Hmm..I should put my own strange shippings here :lol:
Imagine a The Jonster/Mr. Dark shipping!! :lol:
Although it WOULD look a little odd, everybodt would at least know I was joking right? :lol:

I actually visited RayWiki before RPC. I remember reading about Rayman Origins. In fact, I think that's how I found out about Origins. :P

Anyway, probably a few days before I signed up is when I first visited this site.

It appears that the wiki brought quite a few members to the forum, which is great indeed.

Has it really been 15 years, what the hell

If memory serves, I first visited RPC when Raymanzone disappeared all of a sudden, went through several forums, then kinda left the Rayman community

I still check the forums from time to time, but I can't believe it's been a decade and a half, someone save me from 10yo me's posts, good lord

2 months that I've been here now and my opinion hasn't changed one bit despite the fact I was sleepy when I posted this. I'm glad I'm here now though! :)
