It was 10 years ago today

[GeneralGuy]

...that the IPB iteration of the MFGG Forums closed. https://archive.mfgg.net/index.php?

It honestly doesn't feel that long ago. I had so many fun and wonderful memories of that place, such as the various fads and battling/trading in Pokémon Diamond & Pearl. I joined back in 2006 when I had just turned 15 years old. For those of you who were around during that time, what were your favorite memories and moments?



Rest in peace.

Wow! Very old!

Good times. Thanks for the reminder - this big anniversary had almost slipped my mind!

In some ways it doesn't feel like so long ago, but in other ways it feels like it happened in another lifetime. So much has happened since then - in my own life, on MFGG, in technology and online culture, and in the world in general.

Course clear! You got a card.

Straight up nuts! the internet was a whole different beast back then

Netbattle, around 05-06(?)

It was also a time where message boards were at its peak. Interesting what 10 years does to the Internet!

2006 for life baby. I'm better because I've wasted my life here more than any of you have

I think I was assholw adminy during some of these years.

If not, then it's hard to pinpoint anything. It was all a blur that blew by so quickly.

This won't stop being relevant. Or existing on searches.

Golly gee I remember when the old forums closed

[jas]

Ends create new beginnings, though the IPB boards were kind of where my life began. Such a special time with its ups and downs. I'm happy I met so many of you there and got to share that epic time with you all

[Razz]

So much has changed in 10 years, yet in some ways it doesn't feel like that long ago. Time is weird.

Anyway here's to another 10 years, and 10 more after that.
