2002

Played this so much. The customs maps were the shits.

Not that mouse for me I'll tell you that. Fucking things lacked sensitivity and were fragile as fuck. Fuck they were annoying.

I miss this sound

In computing, or in general?

In computing, I would say the nature of games. You would buy one and play the hell out of it for what it is. Now it's all about lootboxes and season passes... It just irritates me how the market went in this regard.

In general: it was my childhood, of course it was a better time, without the responsibilities.

...

Counter Strike
early Linkin Park
the DVD ferver
in general, its Zeitgeist

Miss when gaming on the internet revolved around sites like Runescape, Miniclip, CrazyMonkeyGames, Newgrounds, etc. - I remember when YouTube had entirely different layouts that allowed us to customize our channel and give it color scheming & outlining, background images on our channels, the original channel streams, Bulletin boards on the channels, 5 star rating systems. When YouTube was popular with fail videos, music trends like the Numa Numa and Eiffel 65 songs, Unregistered Hypercam with 009 Dreamscape, fat people falling and kids getting "owned", nigahiga being #1 subscribed, Club Penguin and Rick Rolling at it's prime, dogs humping inanimate objects, and you could add people as friends on YouTube. Good times on the internet back then yeah?

Blink 182... miss a lot

YOOOOOOOOOO those were the shit!

...

Warcraft 4 now please

Lol, most of Sup Forumsfaggots weren't even born yet

i was born lol

...

(You) were "that kid". FYI, people hated signing your shit

Everything.
>WWF Attitude Era wrestling.
>Shit bands.
>The "scene/emo" thing.

This.

it was before social media took off and before internet phones....... we used to just text on our Nokias...... Also there was more music than just rap and pop.... Girls weren't as fat.... Guys weren't as wimpy....... Cars didn't look like micky mouse rides....... they still made 2 strokes....... gas was like 1 dollar a gallon

close enough

"Her"

Chiptune call sounds

Hooooly shit they are god tier

fat moot

The videostore..

The sound of a dialup modem and how much more exciting the inter was to explore. There was a strong mystique.

The pile of rubble at ground zero
The piratebay when it was good
Bulktube
Cs source and battlefield 2 online where i was able to cable pull i was immortal! Loved that shit so hard
Fox news "the factor" with O'Reilly
And ofcourse ama and later dayZ

srs old youtube sucked big time. It's so much better now

¿Ever play island troll tribes?

I miss it Cus only white people could a afford to use the net.

No way that's him

...

with actual vhs videos

damn I feel old, not from teh photo, but for the younger generation they just don't even get the concept of a video store.

my father

This so very very much

a generation with whiny SJW faggots crying about trump in the trending section all the time, and stupid faggots like logan paul constantly being promoted along with acceptance of homosexuality and promotion of videos that cause racial division - all of this is a better youtube? lmao most likely you were born during this time so that explains your ignorance

I was thinking about Lost just the other day and how I used to lay in my bed watching it after a long shitty day

2006 was the best year where I'm from, music was good, Foo Fighters - the pretender was in the #1 charts, there was no shit tier music on the radio.

Video games were at their apex before as one user further up mentioned, the season pass and pay to win cancer game along in droves.

People were a lot more sane and a lot less SJW'd, people just wanted to live to enjoy life not dictate it.

CKY was my teenage years

The overall aesthetic, Age of empires II and the smaller ammount of degeneracy.
Also, flip phones.

even in this very moment Im playing Warcraft 3 - TFT , legion tower defense ;]

>write down 50 books
>bring it home to mom and dad
>return to school next day
>Teach:"Everybody hand in your book forms"
>pull book form out
>give to teacher
>Teacher:"user its empty"
>cry cause parents didnt buy me any
>hawkwarrrd
EVERY FUCKING YEAR THEY DID THIS
I ALWAYS FILLED THAT MOTHERFUCKER UP
NEVER GOT A SINGLE BOOK

ur 2 old

Fuck... now I want to watch CKY2K.
You just reminded me I downloaded them all.
I was obsessed with the Jackass/CKY crew... seen all their shitty movies they released.

Ah yes, the times when it revolved around skateboarding and getting outside more often rather than being glued to phones and computers. Radio and TV would always play things like Blink 182, Sum 41, Simple Plan, Fenix TX, the plaid shirts and frosted tips, crazy junk foods, Zoobooks & The Crocodile Hunter with Steve Irwin, Fear Factor, Cartoon Network with Ed Edd n Eddy, Courage the Cowardly Dog, Scooby Doo & Nickelodeon with Rugrats, Catdog and Spongebob, and the teen shows like Ned's Declassified and Drake & Josh, PS2 and Nintendo Gamecube, I remember when Pokemon was creative and had only 151 pokemon, and when Burger King and McDonalds toys were actually cool to have. I remember going to Hollywood Video to rent the Pokemon 2000 movie and other movies like Monsters Inc, . "ELMO" Projectors in school, orange Nickelodeon VHS tapes and plastic VHS tape cases. I remember when I was a kid watching Disney with PB&J Otter, Bear in the Big Blue House, 20 years of age now and to be honest I wish I was back in that time, where people weren't so butthurt about racism in politics and when social justice warriors weren't even a thing; when music wasn't dominated by shitty autotune rap & pop.

i had friends in 2000s

Old youtube had way more kids messing around. You can just ignore the SJW bullshit and only check out the channels you follow. How are you forced to watch SJW / Jake Paul shit???

I can be your daddy

being a cool kid and not having inet yet

This, Mr. Hands, Lemonparty, pain olympics, etc. Shame that no kids today know what those are.

I never got books when they had these, only the cool erasers.

>music wasn't dominated by shitty autotune rap & pop

It's your choice to listen to that when there's select new vaporwave coming out every day.

The internet not being completely overrun with trolls, 12 year olds and SJWS and politishitters.

When the teacher would roll this out you knew it would be fun...

Holy shit I remember going to Blockbuster every Friday night.

You're like ten years older than me max.

i miss 2007

also i miss a time before holliwood became a spam factory

...

last i checked, battle.net was full of bots and devoid of players.

This

Remember when elementary schools would have us use this template?

I was using mIRC 95-04

Yeah it used to just be 12yo trolls.

And only people with more than a brain cell and a half could get on.

Any of you fuckers old enough to remember Usenet?

my niggas
CS Source is still the best CS game imo, still play War Lords PuGs. Surprisingly non-dead, several PuGs run per day on the NA ones at least

Being able to read an article on web page by just scrolling now not having to click NEXT 34 times.

Having no Adverts when surfing.

Collecting DVD's

Not having every fucking TV show or film spoiled before even bein released.

Bang Bus.

Age of Empires II was the shit! Still is!

The music, the best time of internet, and shit was simple

...

might have believed it if it didnt say the dates

Kids these days, amirite?

Your mom

The most delicious drinks back then!

oh man, that's snacks_is_back.swf

make flash great again! when swf ruled the web -- that makes me nostalgic

also that beautiful sidebar on Sup Forums and not as many boards. Sup Forums has way too many boards nowadays, stealing users from Sup Forums

got this from pop tarts box

Yeah, the HD re-release was everything I could ever ask for.
I'm just saddened because AoE IV is only for Windows 10

¿Remember the xkcd about this?

I loved the Gumball Rally

>falk asparagus

I think these went up in value

yes but they didnt literaly spam their shit every year like a fucking miniseries, i mean there was that last period when the shit still somehow wasnt 80% remakes and references, and now they just do werses, so there you go they have a whole werse to just spam for a decade

today's warcraft would have no server lists and be plagued with shit in order to justify lootboxes

¿Is that a sex toy?

kek, and the episode with the baby doll in the baby carrier on top of a driving car

Are those canon?
