Nostalgic lurker checking in - Hahli144 - 9th March 2022

I've never really been active in the forums but have lurked for more than 10 years now. Used to play a lot of PR2 and PR3 back when those were still alive. Lots of good nostalgic memories from those.

I discovered freegoose back when no one believed it was real: https://web.archive.org/web/20170608134943/http://forums.acidch.at/showthread.php?tid=861

I find it amazing that there is still an active community for Jiggmin and his games. It's awesome to see that PR2 and PR3 are still online and playable. I really wish there was some way to have these games full of players again someday.

I'm not sure yet how active i'm looking to be here. Work and other life responsibilities do get in the way a lot these days.

Anyways, hello everyone!

Very cool. I wasn't even on the forums before, and wasn't really part of the community honestly, but I do like seeing the history. Smile

Welcome back, Hahli!
I thought it was “as real as a…” (50/50 shot here, and a small perusal of Internet Archive was fruitless). Nevertheless, still the greatest quote in that website’s history. 

Welcome back.

Found the answer in Minimania's signature (also saw that, Northadox, you had it in your signature for a little, as well). I was wrong; it is "fake as..." I am pretty sure someone also made a "$6.50 bill" with ax6's "profile picture," as well.

Unfortunately, it seems the original thread/blog is not archived: https://web.archive.org/web/20161103001125/http://forums.acidch.at/forumdisplay.php?fid=8&page=28

It would either be in "JIGGY IS ALIVE!" or "JIGGMIN RETURNED! [FOR REAL]"!

EDIT: Crap, five minutes later, and I discover I did not even have to search "Internet Archive." Everything is posted in the "JV Memes" thread on JV2: https://jiggmin2.com/forums/showthread.php?tid=1707
