Four years ago this month, Nov 2008. A friend called me saying I have an invite to something called "PlayStation Home" and asked if I wanted the redeem code for it. Tried to redeem it but it didn't work, several attempts later, it still wouldn't work. I decided to test it, and replaced the "8" with a "B" and it worked (or vice-versa, I forget).
Around 2-3AM I finally was able to get on and create my avatar - an emo girl with red hair. Quickly fell in love with the online community concept. I remember shortly after I started I met a guy claiming to be a "glitch monk" because he knew how to "slide" and wanted to share glitching secrets with me because he wanted to "pass his knowledge onto somebody", lolz. So I pretty much started off as a glitcher.
Four years ago this month... crazy. I've learned a lot and met some awesome people.
