Young kids in their teens are mostly at a stage in their life where the biggest part of their personalities are influenced by the people they spend time with and the activities they do, I REALLY feel sorry for the younger generation of WA addicts.
I will take this game and the friendships to my grave when I die, this goes to ALL the old timers, it's been a f@#!ing pleasure and an honor, seriously.
I feel the same way, I wouldn't have stuck around a minute if you or hhc or oldsock weren't still hanging around here when i first came back a year ago. Even though i only lasted a few months playing regularly, im sure of what the reason was. It was just a hollow feeling playing the game without the people from 10 years ago. I think your right in that we were all 14, 15, 16, 17 year olds coming of age. Everyone was starting to smoke ciggs and drink and get girls, ect ect. I remember games we had komo, 3-4 hour warmers where we would leave our computers on during a break, you would go out to the store to buy ciggs and i would sneak out to my garage to smoke weed so my parents wouldn't know. It'll never be like that again, we're adults now. Wormnet was wide open, websites and leagues were springing up all over it seemed like, the community was so alive. It didn't hurt that at that time, 90% of wormnet had the same native language. So yeah, its different now, if i had a wand id bring back dontmess, molson, quietstorm, tenchi, custick, novicane, goaty, dw33b, mojo, danceman, jmo, volrin, ect. At least it would feel the same though. The fact is Komo, our time passed a long time ago. We are dinosaurs. None of these people will really care about all these names they've never heard of that played for 3 years on this game 8 years ago. But we know. And i guess we'll always remember how great this game was at its peak.
