    Ahhhh.....the good 'ole days...
    I thought Aurora Feint was amazing, and it was hard to believe it was free...Didn't bat an eye over paying $4 for a solitaire game...Dreigit, Tris, and all the other clone games that were eventually pulled from the app store...

    And there wasn't nearly as much whining over game prices. If you wanted the game, you bought it. No temper tantrums, no pleading with developers to lower their prices, no "I'll wait til it's 99 cents." People didn't mock and criticize developers over price points as they do now.

    Some things have gotten better, and some things have obviously gotten worse...

    Was that you???? I remember it being suggested, and doing it right away. Very smart idea.

    And I do remember the EPIC thread. It was masterful, yet crazy. :)

    Hey, that's about when TOFTTing came to effect. Everybody called it stupid when the (relatively new) member came up with it, but now uses it on a day by day basic.

    Geez dude you're going way back. Well, might as well post one or two of my own.

    Original Wallpaper Thread - Where I trolled everyone. Also the one that (in it's day) set a TA record (now broken by every PocketGod thread). And where I put the complete opposite thing I shoulda put in the poll.

    Animated Smilies - Ya, the wave of ppl asking about em in the Myst thread that arn moved to a seperate thread :).

    Enigmo 2 Needs To Be Ported - Just wanted to tell you all, I told ya. It's in the AppStore now :p.

    And last but not least:

    Urban Tycoon Update - FOOTAGE OF THE UPDATE OMG :eek: :rolleyes:
