Ten years! Happy birthday Pirate-Community!

My first OS was Windows 98, Windows XP comes into second place. Well my third OS.. yeah heh.. you see I kept experimenting with all OSs available at the time. Well let's just say for third place: Windows 98; Windows ME; Windows NT 4.0; Windows 2000 and Windows XP Media Center Edition. (Windows 95 never worked )

[Master]

I've used an edition of all Windows OSes onwards from 95.

[Zikken]

What I used so far in my life in order 98,2000,XP,Windows 7, vista( got my first laptop and it was shit), and windows 8 ( Current ).

[Master]

My current laptop (the one I posted an image of in the Vacation thread) came with Vista, I later upgraded it to 7, good upgrade indeed.

Windows Vista with all the service packs and updates installed is pretty good in comparison to Windows 7. Though I do like how Windows 7 feels more. Even having used Windows 8, I prefer Windows 7.

Meh, I can't remember what SP I was on when I updated, suffice to say, I'm happy I did.

ms-kleaneasy more like wOW WHAT A BITCH (i don't remember why i don't like her it's been years since i was last on rz. i just don't i guess.

I imagine she was just an intern who was told to moderate a forum about a game series of which she didn't fully understand the appeal. Hardly her fault. She wasn't one of us in any real sense, and while she may not have done a particularly great job, we gave her a harder time than she deserved.

i liked spiral's version of her though )

You did? That was a very long time ago... in retrospect it was quite juvenile and a bit more personal than is appropriate. Not something I'd do today. The main thing I remember is tricking Shawn into thinking I was the real deal. That was pretty funny.

I wish I'd joined in 2008, there was so much going on at that point. Plus, it would've allowed me to be a twelve-year-old forumite!

I thank you, someone else, for reinforcing this point.

2008 was the year I joined RPC, but I never dared to go to the official Raymanzone forums even after my 13, which is curious.

[Master]

I hung about the RZ forums as a kid for quite some time, never going on it though, good thing too, I'd have acted like a right arse, particularly being an Aspie and the like.
Heck, I'd have probably soured moods here aplenty if I joined when I first discovered this place.

[Haruka]

I originally didn't go to RZ because I wasn't 13 yet, but even after that, I think I didn't go there because I knew my English needed some improvement. At my 13 I started to frequent my first forums in my native language (but I don't frequent any PT one now for different reasons in each case) but RPC wasn't my first abroad forum.

[OCG]

I did not really use internet that often as a kid because I did not have a proper one and dial up was a big pain.

[Master]

I was about 8 years old when we first got internet in our house, if memory serves, funny how in this day and age, you get 4 year olds here.

[Haruka]

As a kid I wasn't quite an user of the internet either, because back in those days there weren't luxuries like YouTube and even less fast internet and unlimited navigation.

[Master]

Hm, indeed, though when I joined it was around YouTube's conception.

[Adsolution]

I've knowingly been browsing the internet since I was around six (2001), though I didn't join anywhere till 2005.

[Master]

Blimey, back in those days, the internet was the weird thing I saw once or twice at my dad's workplace.

You're welcome!

As a kid I wasn't quite an user of the internet either, because back in those days there weren't luxuries like YouTube and even less fast internet and unlimited navigation.

Dial up certainly was a limiting factor, but as a kid I generally browsed Cartoon Network's website and played with some of their little games online. Before the time of Rayman. Which in fact, Rayman 3 was what ended up introducing me to online communities. Started off with the Raymanzone of 2004, but it eventually led me to great communities such as this and onward.


What got my curiosity was the game case had a paper in it with a link to Raymanzone itself. I think it was when I found Phoenixan's forum back then, I ended up finding RaymanPC... unless it was the other way around. I don't recall fully.

[Keane]

I've surely been to RZ back in the day but I couldn't really speak basic English until I was eleven or something so I had no idea what the hell any of it was.

[rolesfamily]

I'm quite a bit late to this site, but congratz anyway. It's nice to see that this place is still strong, and there is still such a strong forum presence from Rayman fans!
