Hi, I just wanted to blog about my time on Tengaged, which started 10 years ago today. I've only been active for 3-4 of those years, however.
First off, I'd be lying if I said this website didn't have an impact on me. My 1st account was CHAD814, I haven't kept it a secret if you asked but 95% of people wouldn't remember me anyway. I didn't make too many friends back when I first started on here, and I was really young and was definitely a bit of an asshole to people. I had nothing in common with most people and those who didn't know me well thought I was in my mid-20s. Now I AM in my mid-20s (24 on Friday) and I'm not much different, but I try to be much nicer to people unless they aren't nice to me. I don't take results (group games are all I play now) seriously and it's just fun to play them and meet cool people.
All my old friends are long gone except 1 ( mikec51), and I've met some great new people since returning. You guys know who you are ( Flipflops). I'm glad I returned, maybe I'll stay awhile longer but I'm not sure.
My timeline:
- From 2010-2012 I actually played games
- Reached Silver level (oddly never played Survivor which was rare for silver levels)
- Played Stars in 2011
- Around 2012 I think, I got involved with The Epics. Fun group that I had things in common with.
- By 2014, I was off the site for good
- Returned on this account in April 2020
