I was talking to a colleague at work yesterday, the topic got onto our early forays onto the internet, and I realised that I’ve been VirtualWolf online for very close to ten years now.

I went looking through a folder of old files from years ago (I have a school assignment from 1994!) for the first references to my current nick. The very earliest website I still have is from March 1998, although I’m sure I had a couple of ones before that, I just must not have saved them. My nick back then was “DevlinSlayer” (I was a huge Marathon Trilogy fan, the “Devlin” part was taken from a total conversion called Marathon Evil). It seems “VirtualWolf” didn’t come about until somewhere between the end of 1998 and March-ish 1999.

I’m amazed it’s been ten years, that’s crazy.

  1. cheers to our 10 year old usernames!

    so much lower maintenance than 10 year old kids. oh wait you have an actual kid. that’s much less funny then.

    1. I do, but I think a ten year-old would be lower maintenance than an almost twenty one month-old. 🙂

      In fact, I’d imagine the amount of maintenance required for a child is inversely proportional to their age.
