Changed, though it's 12th by Pacific and NS's standard.

I've tried to do my part to keep us running, but it's the ongoing contributions of so many different people—admins, moderators, and players—who have made it all possible. I'm deeply grateful to all of you. Thank you.

Nationstates, if you are reading this, it means you are ten years old. You have finally transitioned from Infobahnipper to Interneteenager.

Happy 10th Birthday NationStates!

I fondly remember joining the game for the first time in August of 2004, the first region I visited was 10000 Islands after demanding that the recruiter sign a "treaty" with me, formed my own region shortly after and CTE after that.

Coming back in 2006 and being here on and off really ever since.

Thanks guys, you've made this a great game, and I look forward to another ten (God willing)!

End of 2009 I joined this game... glad I stuck around. It's been quite a damn wild ride with secret backstabbing, infighting, hostile diplomacy, and RPing like I never have done before.

Approaching my third year here, I realize that I'm glad I'm still here after all this time. Thanks Max Barry, for keeping this around long enough to give me a chance in the game.

To another decade of NationStates... and to a wonderful road for all of us.
