I just realized that last week was my 10 year anniversary on facepunch. Post some of your best fp memories from back in the day here
I remember when people who joined in like 2009 or 2010 were considered the cancer of this forum. '09ers we called them
Also bring back smartness yeet
I don't know anything I just got here.
Ditto.
oh shit-
I’m not cancer
At first i was a cringy memer, then i became a cringy weeb, and now I just shup up while trying to look normal.
Spent a couple years being a whiny shitposter in the mapping subforum. Permabanned a few times, grew up and now I'm just a regular shitposter like the rest of you.
I never did get any better at Hammer, but my art kinda improved a lot thanks to this forum.
Joined in 2012 and was incredibly annoying and terrible. got this account in 2013, was still annoying and terrible. i remain so to this day but some things have changed
I've never contributed anything really amazing to this website apart from bad jokes/shitposts, but hey that's cool with me.
tfw ive been here for almost ten years and done nothing noteworthy.
Ever since I got Gold membership my life goal and dream came through, and from that day all I've done is shitposting so much in OIFY that it's become my language, even in real life. People can't understand what I'm talking about, yet to me it sounds completely normal in my head as if I'm in a borderline personality state. I never post on polidicks or the other news board because I'm too afraid to let out my inner retard into the open, and that I shall be forever become a target by the general audience with my sheer stupidity and radical thoughts. I am a pathological lier at it's core and full of Dunning Kruger that even I myself can feel it, which creates a paradox of my cognitive bias. I'm a failure of this community, and I need help.
I've been here since 2007.
Why.
....im the cook.
I dunno, I've been here for a long time. I probably joined because I had trouble with a game or something. Initially it wasn't an important place for me, I actually got permabanned early on when I didn't log off a library computer (back then Facepunch didn't have a "log off" button, and I was too newbie to figure it out) and someone got on and shitpost with my account. Found out about Garry's birthday unban a few months after the fact and started using this place more. It ended up becoming my defacto online home and I've made and lost many friends over time. My current group of online friends can be traced back here, directly or indirectly. One of my best friends I met here just because we were both from Pennsylvania!

Joined in 05', lied about my age since the age restriction was 16 at the time
Got banned 5 times in my first 2 years, 2 of which were auto-bans and one perma that was later reduced. Been banned once since then because I asked Crap to ban me.
Was big in the gmod community through the mid to late 00's, did some rips and model rigging
Joined the Marines in 10', slowed down on my posting from then on
Sometime in here I got gold from time in and post count
Lurked and posted every once in a while for a few years
One day asked Postal If I could be mod, him and the rest of the team said sure
And now we're here
joined in 2010 when i was 10 for reasons i can't remember why, think i made like 10 posts or something and stopped posting. i remember i had a borderlands avatar
started posting again in the gmod section in 2012, and soon after i branched out to the programming section and lurked waywo, didn't really post much as i never really made any cool stuff. got gold in 2013 i think from someone giving it away in the gmod section. i witnessed the rise and fall of the sinking ship simulator first hand, and it was then i learned french canadians existed. in 2015 i stopped going there and pretty much abandoned the rest of the forum for gd and ft. started posting in wayt, made a lot of friends, became a total asshole, and i ate two carolina reapers for trump in 2016. in 2017, i posted my badage boys thread and came back 7 months later after loneliness started to get to me. went back to wayt and made a bunch of new friends. became a better person. come 2018, come newpunch. made more friends from the change encouraging some lurkers to start posting, made some fresh mistakes, but they've been amended.
and here we are, the year's ending, the forums may be ending, but the people i've met will be with me for years to come.
especially you.
My first account was made around '09, nowadays I mainly post nonsensical crap in OIFY. Great people there, you should try it out.
i was permabanned by hezzy for posting "op is a fag" in an 8 year old thread
And posting about once a decade. Speak to you in 2028!
Uh...one of my best post was the post in the Thread who everyone gots a ban.
I came here at 10 years old and brought my abysmal posts from the old Sven Coop forums with me, then because a regular on the mapping forum for a few years while in 6th form at school before returning to my lurking ways since.
also went on a stolen boat adventure in GM stole my boat, Wurm invasions were the shit in 2010-11!
joined when i was like 11? 12? lurked for a bit, figured i had the gist of it, didnt, got permabanned twice, im a mod now
lurked since like 10 years ago, made an account in 2011, made some p funny posts once in a while, got permabanned somewhere along the line, made account on newpunch, made some p funny posts once in a while, we'll see if I get permabanned here or if Garry kills the whole world before that can happen
Can't remember right now.
Been coming to these forums since they were hosted on garrysmod.org
Still haven't gotten my speed boat.
I joined as a lurker to get first-hand (sorta) news about Team Fortress 2 updates, then proceeded to make cringy posts and video hoping to be the next rubberfruit. I then made a sincere attempt to learn hammer and lurk some more.
I find this the only place on the internet where you can discuss Overwatch in a sane manner. I hope that the game and icelandic scaldic poetry I am working on can find a modicum of fame here.
2009 dumb ass idiot who got banned frequently
2 year hiatus
2011 come back less of a dumb ass
2014 i met some of my best friends who i essentially call family now
made a lot of friends, acquaintances, went through high school, life happened and is still happening
2017 i went green and fucked up hard core, tons of mistakes, lost myself and some of the friends i made here, started hosting events for facepunch(hl, dm, co-op with vultr)
2018 mid way i came back, went back to being green and am now fixing mistakes and being a much better less toxic person(am now hosting again with many others under the wing)
facepunch taught me hard lessons about being sensible, kind, honest and not to be a dumb fuck, this place at every turn made me pay for my mistakes and honestly im thankful, im glad this place exists
and now i don't want this place to go
i havent checked my history but ima take a guess and say something like..
shiny, shiny, cry, shiny, ban, shiny, cry, shiny, ban, shiny, shiny, ..., shiny
