8 years on GBAtemp

This summer has marked my 8th year of being here.
Honestly, it's crazy to think that I've been here this long and that this forum has been such a big part of my life.

I used to be really immersed in the 3DS scene—that was the original reason for my registering. Nowadays, my 3DS is sitting on my desk collecting dust, but I still fire it up every now and then to play a little. Buddy's been good to me over the years. My Switch remains unhacked, which is probably the reason for my relative inactivity (who knows, once I hack it I may return to being more active), but I still lurk the site every day.

A lot has happened over the years. I've met quite a few friends here, some of whom are still among my closest to this day. I've dabbled in lots of fan translations and that hasn't stopped. I'm currently one of the Hungarian translators and the proof-reader for Deep Rock Galactic, a game I absolutely love. I've also become a vtuber and stream games on Twitch from time to time.

It's been an absolute blast for the past 8 years and I have no intention of leaving. I love this site and its community, and I hope to stay here for another 8 years and beyond.

    I'm doing good, just made my first drink of the day, so better now, Captain and Coke today. I had to cut grass all day, then get my hair cut. I messed with my wifey, she knew I was going to get hair cut, and I went and bought a purple dyed wig, and came home wearing it, she freaked out, thinking I dyed my hair purple, was funny.

    Damn, I haven't been on here in while. My wife and I went on a mushroom trip like 10 years ago. A friend had a PS3TV with the glasses and some racing game. It hit when I was playing the game and I freaked out because I thought I was really driving and crashed.
