For all us oldies..

I remember the first Easter Egg Hunt. It started off as you could hunt once every 12 hours, then it switched to once every 4. And instead of getting tokens you could redeem for whatever you wanted, you got bunnies *or items*. The board was full of Swapping X for X trade threads. The swap thread would have been helpful back then. I remember setting my alarm to go off every 4 hours so I wouldn't miss a chance to get the UR Butterbun or the Joker Bun. Then we realized there was an amount limit, not just time so I was waking up in the middle of the night for no reason.

Edit: I used paint for my wishlist. I saved a pic of every pet I needed, added them one by one and then uploaded it to photobucket. Then when I got one, I would just edit the pic there.

O my gosh, I can think of soo many things I remember
The old layout, aww, I would stare at that little July PPS for hours at a time wondering how I would get one. Plus that little gray pup on the adopt button, I always wondered why you couldn't adopt that pup since it was on the button. Also the big pic of Avian at the top which I actually miss. I really like that layout a lot
Hmm, the adopting of one pet at a time, which I hated x]
O, I remember when there was no limit on how many pets you could adopt so I adopted like 100 Oct 08 dogs before they closed that off
Hmm, I remember before the rarity system was out and how much easier it was back then to get a dream pet
I remember being in the first 3000 users and thinking the place was huge XD. I would have never guessed that now we would have over 130,000
Hmm, I remember the old forum where there was no pet chat, no clubs or armies, no Chicken Smoothie chat, no Adult chat. I remember just general chat and that the trading and adoptions were all on the same thread
Gosh, I can remember so much more but I don't feel like typing it all x]
And yea, I have also aged twice since I have been an active member on here ^_^

O, and for the wishlist thing XD. I hated having to get into photobucket and change it once I needed another pet or had to take one off, that was soo annoying x]

I remember when the Oct & Nov 08 Dogs were pretty much not worth crap except the Joker, and the July 08 PPS was the MOST WANTED pet.

I remember when there was no account system, so you had to bookmark each pet's page or save the codes somewhere.

I think I still have my pets' codes saved somewhere. XD
I miss the old layout. It was so pretty. =] I don't think I kept a wishlist because it was so hard to keep it updated. The Pound was always a nightmare. XD I hated sitting there for an hour hoping it would load but I still put up with it so I could possibly get a rare. And I remember getting so excited when we got an RP forum. XD

[KillerGramcracker <3]

I remember when i had every toxic, then my friends wanted one and now i only have 1 XD

I remember just clicking as manny times as possible to adopt like, 100 of each pet XDD

[mirage.]

I remember when my favourites bar was FUUUUUULL of CS pets. It was terrible. xDD

[Shian]

I remember the tan layout.

I remember when there was no limit, I'd adopt 5 dogs a day so I could have a growth each day.

I remember when the "trading system" was you giving your pet to a specific user and trusting them to do the same.

I remember when it was more fun to collect art to use for our signatures of the pets we wanted rather than trade pets.

I remember being scolded once because these boards were slower than what I was used to, so I posted in nearly every thread just to make conversation. Which wouldn't happen for a day or two.

[evergreen]

i can hardly remember the old layout. I remember the day that i signed on and the new one was there and i was shocked! I also remember when i first joined and didn't realise that one newborn could have a bunch of outcomes. I gave a bunch to the pound!! SO STUPID!

[Nighthawk]

I'm not that old a member, but I was accountless for quite a while there. Still have some of my accountless pets from 08. ^^

I loved the old Pocky pixel pets! Think we'll ever get them back? =)

I remember when the old butterwolves, 2nd gens, warriors, tess horses, and card dogs flooded the free adoptions threads. Now a lot of them are rares... O.o

[asexual]

I only adopted one pet way back in 08, I think it was a sun newborn. Lost the code, and never put my pup anywhere to see it grow. Now I finally stubble back upon this site so much later. I wonder what my first pup grew into? xD
