oh man I
loved warpathHmm. I'm not sure when I began my internet adventures. Before 2000, I used it primarily to hunt down share- and freeware. ca. 2000, I started using it socially; I became involved in a community based around The Sims. Keep in mind, I was only 10 at the time. From there, I joined the forum at Home of the Underdogs, and later discovered Solidsharkey.com. In 2003, at age 13, I joined Pyoko. Here, I used the moniker 'Fredward'* for the first time. At this point, I was solely interested in the acquisition of cartoon pornography; though I did try posting once, Elfin yelled at me. After that, I shut up for about three years. Since then, I have discovered 4chan, anime, torrents, and inner peace.
I think that about covers it.
*for the curious, this has absolutely no relation to my real name, which is neither Fred nor Edward nor, indeed, Fredward. Actually, as I recall, in a thread about gay names, my real name was one of the first to come up. Try to guess what it is!
