How long have you been coming to OCR?

[duskvstweak]

So, how long have you been coming to OCRemix and how have you liked the changes that have come and gone?

I've been coming since 2002 and have been enjoying ever since. I think I first fell in love with the site when I heard AmIEvil's "deathinasnowfield" mix. I still kind of prefer the 2002 site design; the dark blue with the first use the headphones over the controller.

I've loved how involved OCR has become; the albums, the podcast, the judges.

So, how about you?

2005-06 for me, signed up for forums in '07, actually started using them in '08. We still used dial up until late '07, so I would bring my usb to school and download tons of music.

I've been a forum member since 2002 but I've been browsing here since the site was orange and was primarily DJP's site for sharing his own stuff.

The place has had some interesting changes over the years, some good and some questionable. More drama on trivial things than I'd like but I wasn't involved with any of it so I won't really complain.

started coming here back in March to download music, joined the forums about a week ago, been posting since...

[Dyne]

Sometime in 2002.

I came here around...2004/5? I think? Anyways, I found this place by watching a music video for this remix: http://www.ocremix.org/remix/OCR00465

Signed up later on after discovering the site was about more than just the music

I've been a fan of the site for nearly 10 years. 5 years ago I signed up for the forums never made it past 20 posts, I was to busy to feel connected enough here to keep involved. I'm here now and loving the forums, as well as getting involved with compos on thasauce and hitting up IRC when my instructors become too boring...hehe. This site is pretty great I think, some excellent support in the workshop forums!

[cobaltstarfire]

At some point when the site was still purple.

I don't remember how long I knew about it before I signed up on the forum, as my sense of time is well lets just say nonexistant. Probably around 2002-2003, that's about when I was a sophmore in highschool...I think...

I've been here since 2002. I came here from a link on vgmusic. I remember looking at the 'p' section, looking for Pokemon mixes and saying "WTF" when there weren't any. Been here ever since

[Elex Synn]

Think I've been downloading since sometime between 1999 or 2000. Don't really remember when I signed up for the forums exactly. Either a 2001.. 2002?

Edit: Guess, the top of my post says September 2002 was my forum sign up.

[EdgeCrusher]

2000. Oh yeah.

[Level 99]

Started checking songs around my freshy-soffy year of college, actually registered when I subbed my first mix (rejected, absolutely gave me reason to improve). I've only been a really active poster this year, started last year after M6 when I was told about FF4 project. Honestly, I can't complain about too much without being unjustified or sounding like I'm simply whining, so I'll just nod my hat to DJP and the site-workforce and say keep it up. After all, I definitely couldn't do any better if I were in their shoes...

...mmm, muffins...

[Salluz]

I started downloading mixes when the site was like, blue or something. 2002, I'd say. I didn't join until the given date.

January or February 2002 from a friend's recommendation.

2005-07 for me, signed up for forums in '08; I usually browsed Gen. Disc during my classes to pass the time.

[The Coop]

I went to VGMix1 first, but found this site not long after. I checked out the forums, poked around, and eventually signed up in May of 2002.

[halc]

i discovered ocr sometime in 2002 and started writing music about two years later, when i first learned of vgmix. never spent much time around the forums until 2008 (when i started making decent music)

[Meteo Xavier]

Umm... it says I first made my account back in 2004. JesustheDarkLord got me started here way back then, but I haven't been posted really regularly since this year.

[Arrow]

Been a member of the forums since 2007, but I've been browsing and downloading from the site itself practically since its inception. In fact, I was reading the old OverClocked comic before the ReMix site ever went live.

I feel old.

I got a friend's recommendation too that knew FFMusic Dj personally back in May 2001. I didn't know you were around for that long though... That's awesome. No wonder you know a lot of music from here like I do.

[Bahamut]

7 years now. And to think I've visited this site since my senior year of high school and now it's a big part of my life.

[Inimitable]

Lurking for 6 years takes its toll on a man.

[bLiNd]

since it was orange

[JCvgluvr]

Joined the forums on the last day of 2007. Before that, I lurked and listened to the Mario and Zelda mixes on the site. Since then, I've been a big fan of both the awesome music created on a regular basis, and the more mature nature of the forums. They certainly beat gamefaqs' forums, I'll tell you that much, lol!
