Aloysius Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 As of last month, the 28th of July, I have been a member of Phatmass for a full 10 years. From the ages of 16 to 26. I have not always been active, but it's always been a place I return to that feels like home on the internet, no matter where I am in the world (I have phatmassed from PA, WV, KY, CA, FL, OH, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Belgium, and Egypt) or where I am in my life. I've always come here to learn and grow in the faith, for help and direction in confusing and difficult times in my life, for general Catholic camaraderie, to be goofy and ridiculous and a general CREEPY ALIEN, to muse and sound off with strange and crazy projects, plans and ideas, some of which a few people out there I'm sure will never let me live down, and generally to meet all the great people that have come and gone through these phorums over the years. (my original avatar, which I kept for many years) (my other major avatar I briefly used) (Current Avatar: return to my classic Chi-Rho with a Celtic Twist) :beer: So whether you are an old timer like me, or a newcomer, let's raise a glass to Phatmass, to the good times and the bad, and the happy chances that brought us all together... here's to another 10 years of Phatmass madness :cheers: cue phatmass nostalgia in 3... 2... 1... http://web.archive.org/web/20040325052439/http://www.phatmass.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aloysius Posted August 23, 2013 Author Share Posted August 23, 2013 Chesterbel Enterprises had many crazy schemes lol... I came very close to actually purchasing land for that one. Of course that was already a downgrade from my seasteading plans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AccountDeleted Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 I remember your second Avatar, Aloysius, so that must have been sometime after 2007 when I joined. Congratulations :pm: :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morostheos Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Wow, it's hard to believe it's been 10 years!! I joined shortly after you, on the 11th of August 2003. It's crazy to think about, but I agree, phatmass has always been a home to come back to. In my many travels, there are few things I've been a member of for 10 years, and I'm happy to say phatmass is one of them. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmaD2006 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I date back to July 2006! I feel like a baby (but I'm not lol, I joined when age-wise I was a bit older). Congrats Aloysius and Morostheos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
