GDnet Birthday Thread

Great job Gaiiden. I've been along for about 10 years now, such an awesome community. I still remember an april fools where this site was changed to a dolphin sex site lOL

Yay my account is over 13 years old! :) heheh

Congrats to all involved!

I've been here 9 of those 12 years, which I can hardly believe.

Keep up the good work!

Grats everyone!

Happy birthday.

Some floorcaek is in order.

Yay my account is over 13 years old! heheh

The fact that no one else has noticed so far would be awesome if 1) it was intentional and not because I fail at math and 2) GDnet's bday coincided with April Fools

Alas neither are true so therefore I am an idiot and the site is actually 14 years old

Wait, I thought GameDev's birthday is January 1st?

Been here nearly eight years.

Happy birthday dear Gamedev, you showed me the road back then

A little cake for you

I want to say that if it wasnt for gamedev I would be just half the programmer I am today...no offense intended ;D

Arf.. I noticed as well, mostly because my account dates from Dec 2001 and I'd been kicking around for about a year before hand...

Nope.. June 15th.. it was going to be June 1st but we had to push back the launch a bit. Remember, it was a bunch of our smaller sites all joining together to pool resources and create a better community. =)

I haven't been around that long but happy birthday GD

I'm confused. Is it June 15th or April 1st?

It's always been June 15th! =) When we went live Dave compared it favorably to the birth of his first child.. I excitedly said "Really Dave?" His deadpan response.. "No.. not really, but this is still pretty awesome" So there you have it! It's just amazing that we've been around so damn long. I'm not certain what the future holds but I always hope we can go down some path to make us a better place for game devs.

congrats gamedev. I know i haven't been around these parts nearly that long, but it's still cool to see=-)

Kinda messed up but it's certainly a glimpse into the past..

We were all so young then.. I like having a black version.. I just hate maintaining a black version of the skin.
