For internet standards I think this community is waaay pass the "old man needing a cane" threshold.

I will also immortalize the site if needed, creating bot accounts with high profile member names that just occasionally post new random messages on a copy of the site on a server of mine somewhere. We died but came back, not allowed to die again.

I imagined a dystopian future where the robots have taken over humanity, and some person believes this is the last safe haven for human expression, only to slowly realize that this "Sagie" and that "Miva" and "Catman" and other people were robots all along.

Diego, maybe that future has already come and we are all robots except for you.

As Cipher said, BK would not be considered a "hacker" technically since he mainly relied on group guessing of passwords with his friends, which, when our admins / mods were not often older than 20 (and were mostly years younger), was often much easier than it should be.
Web security back then was terrible. He probably used a do it yourself password cracker. I'd call BK a novice at best.

He didn't even do that. Who did BK even "hack" actually? I think the extent of hacking that has ever happened here involved people guessing other people's personal security questions based on info those folks gave away themselves, and people blatantly giving away their passwords for no reason.

That would make him a tamperer. Less notable than the former.

I don't know much history, i did see a lot of drama happen.

When i first joined it was sometime after the GS TLA's release. Cause I remember buying that and not too long after joining the first online community ever.

I have been around the many iterations of these forums, i sort of wandered around. I wasn't always the best person i guess. Did not always fall in with the best of crowds and that was a bit my mistake sometimes. I do remember losing all contact when the akuta forum whatever. And the fact that MSN Messenger died and I did not know how to contact anyone. I lost contact with MapleTip as well this way D:

And ditto, we all have matured a bit since the old days.

Now I can understand why so many people liked the new subtitle of the forum. The "chapter" in the sub makes reference to past iterations of the forum as "chapters", rather than the original games as "chapters".

I first "Joined" the Golden Sun Community back in... 2010? I wanna say? I was introduced to Golden Sun Realm by the girl who went on to become my girlfriend, made an account, and lurked heavily since by that time the cliques and sub-groups were formed and I just kinda felt like an outsider. From there I bounced around a few sites, posting and never feeling like I belonged. Ended up being part of the twitter group for as long as that lasted, hung around with Ren until that ended, and now I'm here and alternating between posting in half the threads and avoiding posting at all due to my social anxiety and the fact that I feel like I don't contribute anything haha.
