Rayman Pirate-Community

It’s truly beautiful to see how long this community has stood! I may have joined in 2017, but I’m really happy to have been part of this adventure even for only a few years so far!

I know 5 year olds who have their own tablets now. I definitely didn't have my own technology until I was at least 10. Then again maybe kids don't join forums these days either...

They don't

I learned to program in Visual Basic when I was like six, and just loved doing all sorts of esoteric technical stuff with computers. Because of that, I get really nervous when people talk about not letting kids have access to devices, or "screen time", or whatever they're saying these days. Of course, the flipside is that I had a 56k dial-up modem back then, so I wasn't gonna access much weird stuff on the internet, unlike kids these days.

I remember the dial-up modems. Man that connection tone never fails to bring back childhood memories.

I think I have a recording of one of my modems somewhere. Unless it got deleted on one of those occasions when I cooked / erased a hard drive…

Feel free to share it if you like?

If I ever find it, I will

Haha, well I'm only here today I'm afraid.

Well I might find it before next year!

I'm pretty sure I won't even remember this conversation next year...

Then maybe I'll just email it to you

You don't have my email

I have the one associated with your RaymanPC account, don't I?

I don't think you do. Even if you did email it to me, I'd probably forget and send it straight into the trash where it belongs

I only just noticed this and Im late but a very happy birthday to the forums for 18 great years and heres hoping for another great 18! Youve kept the fandom growing and the expansive valuable posts and information are truly a delight to read and learn about!

I'm so glad you like this place so much! Indeed, here's hoping for another eighteen…

Well, you're the one who asked me for it in the first place

We definitely did, but then again I don't think we ever got an answer to this existential question. Regardless, I'm sure that there must have been quite a few of them by now!

Aaron, DavidSosa, R4Y (?), I thought of more earlier but they seem to have slipped my mind again

Somehow one of those names doesn't surprise me!

We've all been there, haven't we?
