My 10 years of subsim!

Hitman · 09-29-12, 09:00 AM

So I turned up 40 recently and with it came my 10th anniversary as subsim.com member, hence I am somehow sentimental now

I would never have thought that a web could endure so much, and also still be so strong and growing up ...

I would never have thought that I would now have two beautiful kids and my marriage is going on strong ...

I would never have thought that ... well, so much more ...

But I thank God for this, it's been a great time here and it's really become a reference in my life to be part of this community. So thank you Subsim, and thank you all for being here, sharing our hobby with passion and friendship

Pretty cool, Alberto. I'm right behind you. My 10th will be in November, but I'll probably hold off starting a thread until the anniversary of my first post, which will be late in December.

Congratulations on surviving this long!

Congratulations, Hitman. You have always been a fixture here at SubSim, and you always will be.

Gerald · 09-29-12, 09:42 AM

Hitman, congratulations on your years of SubSim .... and coming,

Oberon · 09-29-12, 09:49 AM

Congrats Hitman, it's good to see you, haven't seen you about since that business in Norway with the wolves.

*looks at his profile*

Dear God, it's my ten years this year too! Well, technically it's eleven since I lurked the board for about half a year to a year before I actually joined up.

It's gone past so quickly!

Subsim is always a great place to come back to, it's like a good online home or something. And you're one of the people who makes it great, so, thanks for the good 10 years!

Takeda Shingen · 10-01-12, 10:13 AM

Remember the drama after SH2 was released. Oh dear lord.

Skybird · 12-01-12, 03:36 PM

Ten years. Or 315,360,000 seconds. I could swear that originally the site was named subsim.hit.

Alberto, wasn't your first signature something like ' forget all the stereotypes. We're not all bull fighters in Spain'?

sublynx · 12-02-12, 06:59 AM

IIRC It was: "There are nowadays more virtual U-Boat Kaleuns in Spain than bullfighters, so please forget stupid stereotypes about us"
