I'm almost certain I hit the 10 year mark some time this month. Can't recall because it was bloody 10 years ago.

My first nation would have hit 10 years by now, too. I know it definitely existed in May 2003, because a while back I found a post on an off-site forum by it dating from then, and I'd had it for a while before that - so probably founded in March 2003.

Too long ago.

This nation is 10. Jolt had my first post down as Feb. 17, 2003 (which was actually before the move to Jolt). I don't know if that's my date of founding or not.

I feel all noobish all of a sudden.

Congratulations to all of you who've made it, or almost made it, to 10 years here.
Don't be deceived when our Revolution has finally been stamped out and they tell you things are better now even if there's no poverty to see, because the poverty's been hidden...even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more of these new and useless goods which these new industries foist on you, and even if it seems to you that "you never had so much" - that is only the slogan of those who have much more than you.

I wonder if it'll be around when we could get close to that mark.

I can easily see a 28 year-old me on NSG in 2023. I'll be here for as long as there's a Nationstates to bash my head against.

You might eventually stop posting.

But, when it's 5am and you're procrastinating from writing a dissertation, you'll always be back.

Somehow I can imagine you and Arch, as mods, actually battling out the Orthodox Conspiracy and its violent suppression across the NS forums, with innocent bystanders DEAT'd in the chaos.

Damn straight.

The background of NS will either be Byzantine Purple or red with blood.

Age doesn't have anything to do with becoming a mod. If it was you wouldn't see a mod newer than Antiquity.

Right, but one does have to prove that they aren't capable of becoming the King of Trolls and Conjurer of Flames.
