I remember this. You kept ninja'ing my posts, as I recall....

Yes... The good very bad old days...  

Ninja'ing doesn't get me anywhere. Although, Dres awareness gets me in a worse spot with 1/3 of the forums, a better spot with 1/3 of the forums, and in the same place with 1/3 of the forums.

Being serious, I've been in the ksp community so long I remember the very last days of 1.0.5, and the 1.1 hype train...

Heh, I remember the 1.0 release. The forums were so jammed with complaints and arguments that they were pretty inhospitable. 

In fact, i remember ol' 0.18, and the First time Scott Manley went to eeloo. I think he was still known as a ksp wonder man at the time, since he was one of the first ones to assemble an interplanetary ship in orbit. Even though it was just a drive stage and a stock lander, everybody thought it was masterful. Shows how far we've come...

I remember when the KSC launchpad had the duck-like tower next to it.

R.I.P. a dozen Jeb clones who crashed into it.

[Dman979]

I remember when gravity turns started at 8000m.

[adsii1970]

I remember @Green Iron Crown

[legoclone09]

I remember...

 

um....

 

uhhh....

The new forum change! That's all I can remember.
^wait ^what ^about ^the ^1.0 ^fiasco _{We don't speak about that}

[katateochi]

I remember the great forum crash that reset a lot of accounts.

[TheEpicSquared]

I've been on the forums for so long I remember the argument over why steam users got the 1.1 prerelease but KSP store users didn't.

[monstah]

Aw, man, I miss @Rowsdower. I got here just after @Green Iron Crown incident, and actually had to google what that was once.

[GDJ]

I remember when the Airplane hanger was a idea.

I remember when you had to install a mod to get any plane parts whatsoever.

Hehehe, the Green Iron Crown was so fun and strange that I actually thought about seeing if I could change my handle to "Blue Iron Crown" until I read the forum rules and thought it might have been a violation... eh, @Red Iron Crown?

I remember when the KSC was just the VAB, Tracking Center, and Astronaut Complex... yeah, just like the others have said, no SPH. I spent a lot of time making strange aircraft out of the rocket parts and the Mark 1 capsule... Strange contraptions that actually flew...

Yeah don't do that. The Green Iron Crown incident was a one time thing, won't be happening again.

I remember when the staging stack was higher than your rocket ( seriously who thought it was a good idea to put *everything* in it ).
I remember when the sun was red.
I remember the Barn.

I don't remember what was in the posts the forum ate in 2013, sadly.

 Sorry, just had to.

[Dark Junior]

I remember when King of the Hill and The User Below Me.... weren't dead.
That, and when Long Term Laythe was still a thing

The KSP version is better:

 

[ZooNamedGames]

I've been in the KSP community so long I remember when there used to be a subforum for the Spacecraft Exchange... I remember when it was KMP (in fact it was issues with the mod that brought me to this community)... I remember when SAS used to lock your orientation and you had to disable it to move... I remember good old Macey Dean... I sure miss him. I wish I could be a decent replacement within the community for him. But no one would accept me as his replacement.

...Having just thought over what I just posted I realize I got really off topic there for a second... Oh dear.

[Dman979]

I've been lurking the KSP community for so long, I remember the Great Forum Crash of 2013. (There was a crash then, right? Or have I messed up my years?)

I remember when @GusTurbo had his old logo.

I remember when @Red Iron Crown had a hand-drawn avatar (and sometimes a Christmas hat!)

I remember when moderators had larger profile pictures than the rest of us.

I remember when you could comment with your rep.

I remember when different users had different amounts of rep power.

[0111narwhalz]

I remember the Rocket Builders subforum.

It was a rather cute one, I liked it!

[Spaceception]

I was here before they changed to these forums.

I honestly don't remember them, but, I was here before the change

[temporalExile]

I was here when everyone was a moderator

[Andem]

I've been in the community for so long, I remember when it was the Tale of Emiko Station.
