ten years a tcod member

[Autumn]

On November 26, 2005, a few weeks after turning 11, I joined the TCoD forums under the name "Glittermew151" (later changed to G-Mew) with the usertitle "The World's #1 Mew Fangirl!" and have been here pretty much nonstop ever since.
my introduction post:

I'm Glittermew151. I'm new, but I belong to another forum too. You can call me:
GM
Glittermew151
Glittermew
G-Mew
Glitter

this is where my name came from:

When I got Mew on Ruby(through AR), I named it Glitter because of the fact that it looks glittery. It was my favorite Pokemon at the time, and anything I could, I named Glittermew.
I joined TR's Rockin! with that username, and somebody abbrieviated it "G-Mew". So, I changed my name to that here. XD

and i started such wonderful topics as "Pokemon Crisis: the end of the world" (a roleplay), "Mew Club", "Eeveelutions at war" (an RP which had the description "this is NOT like Eeveelutions at war" bc I wanted to distinguish it from another RP with the same name), multiple sprite threads where I got pissed off at everyone who told me my shitty sprites were shitty, two threads in Forum Games entitled "Type in Pig Latin" and "Type in 1337 sp3ak" (2005 yall), a fucking fanfic about an ice Snow-type Vulpix called "Snowfox's Quest", another fanfic called "Diaries of a Mew" with the description "You'll see." that had the same goddamn premise as Snowfox's Quest, and "Teh Official Zigzagoon Lovers Club" (some things never change).

I also once posted this exact thing in an RP:

If I can't do even partial character control, then this is the lamest RPG ever. So is every other one similar. I belong to another forum, and you can do practically as much characther control as you want. If I can't even tiny-ly control [other person's character], then it's not worth being in. *maybe leaves*

What a wonderful poster I was!

At the time:
-I was 11
-I was in sixth grade
-I had only been playing the trumpet for about three months (!) which means I'd only been reading music for that long oh goodness how things change
-I was still in Girl Scouts lol
-I hadn't gotten into Ace Attorney, Warrior Cats, or Kirby the way I would later become super-into all of those things

there were only 386 Pokémon btw

yay everyone celebrate the fact that i've been a tcodnerd for a DECADE now. celebrate i say

[I liek Squirtles]

Holy shit, congratulations. You've been a member for approximately the same amount of time I've been a fan of Pokémon (probably a bit more).

And thanks! We also celebrate Thanksgiving in Puerto Ruco (certainly not because we're a colony, no no no)

Is this a celebration thread, or a callout post for 11-year-old you?

Congrats on a decade of tea and cod.
