Actually, it would be fun to see more from other old-schoolers, what they remember about Charas, what stayed with them. Remember, I was gone a few times for a few months.

By the way, I am leaving for good :p

yeah i want to hear more...

This is funny, but you had like a two year jump.
You forgot the part where Darkfox and I threatened to kill each other over a pair of bunny ears.

Well MrMr, you're telling the story now.

Hmm... I remember RRWP. Me and him got in a long lengthy arguement before. Heh, I wonder what became of him? Probably one of my most enjoyable and memorable moments was with Darkfox's Chaos Realm - RP. Man was the story LONG. I also remember VG Reapers, Kijukis and DFs Ripping group. I also see that FFL2and3rocks Word association game is STILL going after hmm... almost 2 1/2 years ago since it started.

Some of the other little things I remember.

- Gary's old name as Gary Kertepermeno (something like that)
- SMB, Grandragora, and X-F3R when they were active.
- The small attempt at the Charas Chat room. (I remember when several members in that chat room started acting crazy, and Kijuki got pissed off and left.)
- Charas Annual Contest (That one where you had to design the best set or w/e for the Charas Generator.)
- Red Giants Comics (I read them like 3/4s of them)
- The Private Message Bug where you could actually read other members private Messages.

I guess I would be an old-schooler. :p

Let's see... think think think... thinking hurts...

Alright, here are a few random things about the Charas of yore.

Alex and SMB used to post casually very frequently, just like normal members. Now whenever one of them logs on, I do a double take.
And the contests were fun. In the first contest I did pretty bad. @_@ But in the second one I won the faceset resource contest. :p TheBrave's entries were all pretty awesome though.  

And a long time ago Charas kept going down for a while. It was down for a few days and some people were freaking out.   Some of us thought Charas was gone for good, what with bandwidth troubles and all. Oh well, it was great when it finally came back up.

Another thing, the forum banner. I remember when Reain designed it. It was pretty awesome. We were going to change it a little while ago, but that thread just fell away into nothingness.....

I remember when the Forum Gaming section was first created. Some people were against it because it's spam and a "post here if you want a large post count!" type of place, but then Alex made it show  your total posts and also your non-forum gaming posts.

It was scary when Alex got rid of the complete resources section.    He got rid of it because someone emailed him about a bunch of stolen resources. But he put it back a little bit later, so that was a relief.

Oh, and here's the PM that pop sent to Alex that got him banned. XD XD

There were several "Happy birthday, Trevlac!" threads in Test & Welcome because of that.
