    I was feeling nostalgic, so I looked up my old posts. It's interesting to see how I've progressed on the site, and as a person. Y'all ever do that?

    Yes, I do it constantly. It's a very bad habit of mine to go look at old stuff, and frankly it makes me physically sick for some reason.

    Just the other day I was looking through some stuff and I had to force myself to quit because I nearly threw up. I have no idea why I react in such a way, but it's a habit I've been trying to kick.

    Aye. I have. But I now know that I've dropped again, and pretty much have gone back to what I was before joining the brony community, albeit less suicidal.

    Well I wrote a fanfic once on this site involving several members who are my friends, then there's all the little in jokes and memories like:
    -Nacho pizza
    -Alcatraz the wang
    -Merri X Grey Knightmare
    -Bald Bounty
    -Flagpoles
    -Washing machines
    -[censored by 4Kids]
    -PoeticBait
    -Row Row Row Your Boat: The ship
    -Didneyworl
    -Grandpa Merri
    -Ron the anime junkie
    -testy's special port
    -The Church of Rarity
    -The Family
    -Bolt
    -Go to slep

    This basically sums up my whole existence on EP in a nutshell tbh. If anyone gets the references/memories, go you!

    I normally look at old threads I created seeing as the post thing only goes back 20 pages which ends up ending at November time but looking back there are a hell of a lot of rp interest checks. Here's just a few.

    Overall there are 14 total interest checks I've created and all but two haven't left passed the two pages on group rp and all but 4 have made it passed sign ups.

    Every now and then I'll go look through some old introduction posts from respectable members. Not sure why. Curiosity I guess.

    I was called here because Poetic mentioned flagpoles.

    But to answer the question, I don't necessarily do it much, but sometimes I'll take a look through the early posts in the quotable quotes thread to see some old-school staff shenanigans.

    -sigh-

    I miss those days.

    Sometimes I look back at how helpful and cheery I used to be. It makes me realize how far I've fallen and makes me feel like a useless pile of crap. ._.

    I looked through my oldest posts that I can find and this is what came up:




    I regret nothing.

    I do that occasionally. I went back to one of my old YouTube comments from before I became a brony and it seemed funny to me that I actually used the words, "I don't watch the show."

    I've actually written my username, which I have had since I was 14 and first started going on forums, (I'm 26 now) and my entire online history can be seen with threads that I have made in every forum I've been a part off. I reached over 1000 in three in particular. TheFinalFantasy.com. ThatGuyWiththeGlasses.com and of course Everypony.com. I also used to be the admin of my own Forum for a while.

    That's the fun thing about having a completely unique username for your entire internet life.

    After going through the old 2011-2012 radio chat logs, I think changed quite a bit. Back in those days I seemed more...immature at times. I actually regret saying some of the stuff I said. x3
    *sigh* fun times...

    Ah good idea, I haven't been here for a very long time but it would be interesting to look back once in a while.

    Back when I actually visited the radio. It was the start of something awesome. Shame most of the ponies on here have gone now...
