I remember when the Pound was Tess just posting a thread, and you'd have to post first to get the pets.
Oh and adopting tons of pumpkins to get a skeleton dog, because there was no adoption limit. :'D

Well I haven't been here as long as Somnus, but I remember when the pound was just like checking a group of pets and you could just go to the last page to find the rarest one. All the rare ones would be gone by the time I got there. ^^"

Do you laugh about me whenever I leave?
Or do I still need more therapy?

O yeah, I adopted like 50 or so pumpkins because I didn't get hardly any skele dogs
I think I ended up with like 5, but of course traded them away very poorly XD
But at the time, there were no rarities so noone really knew about trading "fairly"

I remember this too xD
I remember the old layout
I remember when some of the pets didn't grow and how I got excited when the lineart changed and then they grew
When the most you could adopt of a pet was 15, no matter how many outcomes
I remember when people talked about making wishlists, but I didn't know what they were xD
I remember how on the old layout the button things were on the side, and I remember for the 'Adopt' button there was a picture of a dog and a rat xD

((I joined on December 25 2008 =) So I am an oldie =) ))

-shot for bumping thread-
I loved the old layout, especially the Avian picture at the top, it's a vauge picture in my head.
I remember the pound button was a frowning coon newborn
The forum button was a target pup, and I know that the fan art button was like the three stages of a dog, not sure exactly which dog it was.
The old archive was a separate website sort of and was ran by Maus
I remember the old pound, it went by pages.
It was basically who ever had the fasted internet got teh rares.
I remember when Julies were faily common, and people weren't too big into being rude to newbies, and I was taught very well and got my first 08 pet within the first week, I remember being soo excited!
but i also remember getting ninjad.
I loved the April firework dogs, but I could never get a hold of one. Then someone offered ALL of them (except the PPS) For my wood angel. Since it didn't snow rarities I was unaware they were common at the time and the Angel was a pretty rare pet.

If I could log on my own account, I would get the trade and show it.
That angel was gifted to me by a my old best friend ( She betrayed me so we aren't friends any more)
and I was determined to get it back. Then I told a kind user my story and they kindly gave me an angel for roughly 3/4th of what they were wanting, so I made a trade wit the user to get the pet back, I still have the pet today <3
She's been on a rough journey.

I remember when there were just wolves, butterfly wolves were relatively new, rats, and that was pretty much it. ;)

I also remember getting July '08s wasn't nearly as hard QAQ
