Yo Marcin I got yo back bro.

This place also had about 100 quality posters. Always some cool project going on, and the feeling of Shenmue III news coming any day was still looming. Still a fun place, but I can't imagine how it would be with all of those users here again.

I used to be delusional and think I looked like Ryo. Now I'm married to a Japanese girl. Coincidence or Shenmue fan?

I can only sit back and enjoy this retro nostalgia that I was not a part of.

and LOL Alex I'm sure it must have had a tiny bit of influence over your personal life if you ended up marrying a Japanese woman

Make it 2. Although I didn't start posting on a regular basis until 2008. There must be something about signing up when your 13 because that's when I did it also.

[Spokane]

The reason i did it then was because I listened to the rules then, I tried to when I was 12, like a few weeks before I turned 13 or days and it said I couldn't, you must be 13, and when I remembered to the next time I was old enough when I happened upon the dojos main page again a few weeks later. My birthday is June 13.

At the time I was fairly new to Shenmue but knew about it since maybe 98 through magazines and wanted it badly. I only had my new PC maybe a month and I was part of a NFL Titans forum (now defunct) and stumbled upon SD and said oh what the hell. Signed up did not expect to post much and expected to post at the NFL forum. Nearly 35000 posts later and one forum now defunct since 2004,is it too late to change ones mind? Nah. I like it here.

Cheers to 10 years to some of the better friends I have ever had, even in real life. Sorry I have been so distant lately, have alot going on.

[Brothaman]

Wow, ten years. I still remember when I first got here. I just finished Shenmue IIx for the first time a few weeks after graduating high school. I was searching for information about Shenmue III and found this place. I really wasn't too active here in my early day. In fact, I ready did not truly become active until after the 2006 fiasco. I left for Ryo's Place then the Hazuki Dojo. After the HD died, I came back here and been having a good time ever sense.

"I became obsessed with Shenmue when it was previewed with a few small pictures before the DC release in EGM. It has the orange cover. I still have it, but I cut out the pictures and put them in my wallet. The forums of the day were still magic, like portals to another world. One day, I found the Shenmue Dojo, and had no interest whatsoever in forums. However, I regularly opened the chat and had some nice talks with some humans named Bluecast and AnimeGamer. These were my very first friends! They encouraged me to join the forums, and so I did. And here I am still, for I became addicted to their minds, minds which depths I have still yet to plumb. One day, I will consume their lives."

[Yokosuka Martian]

I think it'd be interesting so see all of those old posters from earlier post here again. There used to be TON of activity.
