I still remember my first post here...
flash-forum/starting-off-with-tip-question-t798.html#p4850 (wow...Netscape 4.x...seems like ages ago)
Miss Unflux and a whole bunch of other peeps that used to hang out here.

I think my favorite memories are the people that made this forum what it is.

Netscape 4.x does seem like ages ago, and was so annoying to always have to make websites compatible for it. So glad I don't have to worry about that browser anymore!

My favorite memories would also include the people that have been part of this community over the years, especially you Mark, Joebert, and all of the moderators who have contributed to help keep the forum an enjoyable place with real discussions happening with real people instead of the type of posts you see on other forums where its mainly a bunch of gibberish and people posting just to get links.

Also every time I think of important members in the past that are no longer around very much, if at all, I think about Unflux, Axe, digitalMedia, Musik, righteous_trespasser, b_heyer, 613flavah, Rabid Dog, katana, lucassix, vetofunk, JrzyCrim, ScienceOfSpock, celandine, graphixboy, lostinbeta, Vladdrac, Nucleo, Don2007, madmonk, typhon, camperjohn, Borrow -A- Geek, Heart, and I have got to stop or I could be here all night. As I was going through the member list there have been a ton of people who have helped make Ozzu what it is today including plenty more that I didn't specifically mention here. It is interesting to go through the member list and remember old time members who no longer active anymore. Makes me a bit sad to not see everyone still here.

Wow, a lot of well-remembered names in that list, Bigwebmaster, even though I've only been around for half of Ozzu's life!

Any celebrations planned?

Happy Birthday.

I seem to remember one of the highlights for me oddly enough was my GTKY thread. I think in 1 day i got about 100 questions which were answered fairly promptly even when i was pretty drunk. It was just a funny moment.

One of the reasons i have consistently come back to Ozzu is because of the members. One particular member who no longer frequents the site i've met through here anep in touch with regularly.

I look forward to being a part of the future at Ozzu.
