    No longer a Flashkit mod, not even by stealth

    Insanity is just a point of view. After all, the world looks pretty normal through your own underpants.

    I remember the days when there would be a reply to a thread after 5 or 6 hours, and everyone would rush to see the reply. Oh wait.... that was yesterday.

    I was here then!

    Not been back much since though. . . . Work suddenly became somewhere that I had to actually work.

    Unfortunately.

    I can remember a forum before this one too, FlashZone I think it was called. . . .

    Anyone remember that?

    Flashpad was the one. It was the first major Flash forum, and then just.... disappeared.

    Then I came here and someone had stolen my username from Flashpad, hence my painfully long username here. And the bastard doesn't even frequent the forums here!!

    They had financial problems from what I remember. Oh and I remember the last days being a real hack fest, with oversized thread titles, threads you couldnt visitit and other "funny" BB issues.

    There are delusions of grandeur - and then there's just plain loopy.

    And Markus Mcpee, as I live and breathe.

    I thought you were gone for good.

    How goes it, Geordie Boy?
