I have literally started browsing /b/ in 2007 when I was 10 and saw it referenced in some video game forum. I am 22 now and am literally what you put in that title. I've seen it grow and develop, I've witnessed so many major events happening here, so many changes, I've been active on so many different boards throughout all this time. 4chan was always a big part of my life, my development, mostly an infinite source of lulz and later on (when I got more mature) of great discussions. No other site has ever come close and browsing them always make me wish ti go back to here and missing 4chan's way of thinking. And I also always publicly admitted of browsing it when I was a child, even had a "Works as /b/tard at 4chan" on Facebook profile in 2009 with many people asking me what that even meant. I had Boxxy as my flip phone's wallpaper and Creepy chan as my desktop wallpaper. I had rules of the Internet written in some notebooks during class for fun. I've dressed as green Anonymous man and V for Vendetta for Halloween in elementary school. I have fought in secondary school with classmates constantly referencing 9gag (and sometimes reddit) when it was really massive in 2012 and 2013, trying to convince them how superior 4chan is. I still remember fappening and Gamergate and what kind of consequences they had in 2014. I have traveled in 2013 for 4 hours to a neighboring city in my small country just to attend a conference where moot was having a speech, to see him in person. And moot leaving in 2015 literally felt like losing a family member, it didn't even seem real... AND IT'S BEEN FIVE YEARS ALREADY! 

Remember: you're here forever
