Pretty sure that was all b/c of Flash player. Without Flash player, there'd have been no Strong Bad emails, with Easter eggs, and working games embedded in them. RIP Flash player.
There's no magical solution to eliminate the basic needs for life...everyone needs to pull their weight, and nothing comes for free. Any system of human organization that tries to turn human needs into freebies that come at the expense of others' work is not a human right,
It became a huge cash grab in later years and the market went berserk. You couldn't make enough gold naturally to get any of the cool items anymore and it just got tiring. Maybe I just got old. But the early days will always bring me happy memories
We didn’t have any money growing up, when my older sister finally got a home computer and an AOL disk I was finally able to try ToonTown. It was taken down the next day. Never got to play anything but the goofy skatepark.
Hold up, I assumed the stuff on this part was from the late 90s and I just wasn't aware because my online time was pretty limited in this days. NOPE Webkinz came out in 2005, a year before I started college. I feel old.
Sorry to burst any bubbles, but you were just young and you were residing in curated spaces. As someone who's been on the internet since the beginning let me assure you there's always been racists and crazies.
As someone who has ushered children through those spaces fairly recently. alekazam is correct. Those spaces are riddled with little shits finding ways around the curated rules to be awful.
You don't seem to realize you're making my point. My point is that those sites, at that time, gave a false impression of a safe internet when it was never actually safe.
What I'm doing is disagreeing with you. You have a false impression of a "safe" time on the internet because other people were working to make it safe for you, my point is that it was never actually safe.

#6 you can still play toontown. I prefer the corporate clash as they added some cool stuff and new skills.

Only if she appreciates you responding "OH YYYYEEEAAAAAHHHHHH!" In your Macho Man Randy Savage voice
HollerinAtTheVoid
This is also useful when talking her down from a case of Hulk-a-Mania
nevercompromisenoteven
If she is down for that she'll prolly be down for some cocaine as well. Win Win situation.
SarcasticRN
Off of a slim Jim
nevercompromisenoteven

andrewgrr1
Only way she could be more incredible is of she had the Macho Man "Ohhhhh yeaaaaa" while you go down.

I'm so broken, I was expecting a small rotten.com in the middle of them all.
TheJomsborgViking
The same place they forgot Gaia online.
KuriyamaSoManyNumbers
I 'member when it was called go Gaia and all the sushi errors. The first zombie event was amazing

Haha.. I just got nostalgic and reactivated my account to see it again when you commented.. its pretty cringe..

Man that last one... I absolutely miss when the internet was a fun place to be and only that one weird place had all the racist crazy folks.
itsallaboutthecones
I'm gonna guess that was the American Girl doll website?
A1ekazam
Nah it was club penguin.
itsallaboutthecones
Damn, my next guess was Webkinz because it sounds a little German.

It's alright... I was also in my late high school life when those came out lol

A1ekazam
I'm not saying you're wrong but you have to admit they're EVERYWHERE now and those curated spaces don't exist anymore.
CitrusyGarlic
Are you still a kid who is still going to kid's sites?
