Wow, 2 years already. I remember the temporary "death" of the old place and the birth of ERA like it was yesterday. Been here since day one. Happy Birthday, ERA!
Same, even though I joined 7 months after, I was fine with lurking, still am. Was so afraid I'd have no other place to go. Reddit is okay, but the layout is rough.

I will never, ever, forget the day when Resetera went live.

It utterly changed everything for me and impacted my life in the most profound and fundamental way.

It's the same day my second daughter was born 😂

Whew, time flies. Still remember when the old site imploded and there was that limbo period of being nowhere like it on the internet.

I didn't quite make it on day one, so my ResetEra birthday isn't for a couple more days

It's been a while hasn't it! I don't post so much, but it's always been a nice place to follow discussions. The time period in between was weird and it was nice when this place popped up and has been on a roll since.

Happy birthday ResetEra.
I joined about a year later since i didn't have a correct e-mailadress, since i was unemployed.
I left the other place the same time as most people and lurked for about a year on this one before registering.
I really like this community and it's the only forum i post in.

Big shoutout to EtcetEra for giving me a lot of world news

This is huge for me, a lot of stories I wouldn't even know about because I'd likely stick with the gaming section of other forums.

2 years since thor ragnarok, that's crazy!
I remember signing up on my phone on my way back from seeing it, under the rain

Never made an account on the old site due to my email address, but was able to on here and I'm thankful for that. Happy birthday Era!

I lurked the old place for years. The day it imploded caused me to panic quite a bit.
Everyone went to Discord, and I had no idea what that even was at that time.
I was scouring the net for scraps of info until eventually I came across a logo design contest for a new site. It's a bit fuzzy, but I remember seeing the era logo pop up.

And now we're here, and I'm finally a member.

Happy birthday to us!

I live in a part of the world where the site went live on the 26th. So due to timezone, even though I signed up ASAP (4848), the profile shows 26th. If I change to PST or whatever it shows the 25th instead.

Am I legally allowed into the 25th club?

I can totally bring along bubblewrap and duct tape <3

Was on a road-trip in US. Went to sleep, wokeup next day and GAF was gone, no idea about this forum. Had to twitter and find out what is going on. Good times.

Happy birthday Era! So many things I have missed, since I've been around for only half a year now (and I was never on GAF in the 1st place), but let's hope for many more great years ahead!

Glad we all made it over- let's take this opportunity to remember how kind we were to each other after when we got here and how grateful we were for the community to persist.

I happened to play through No More Heroes for the first time this month, which meant firing up my modded Wii... and digging out USB Loader. Which still has the NeoGAF theme. Felt weird; it already feels so very long ago. Although to be fair the Wii-ness of everything assisted that somewhat!

(And this does indicate to me that I probably should update half my accumulated homebrew apps on Wii; I never did get around to ripping my Gamecube collection too)
