    RIP 53215700, the oldest account I’m still aware of that I’ve forgotten the password to. Must have made it in 98 or 99.

    Edit: it was actually 2001 because I was in a Tribes 2 clan and we used ICQ to chat.

      52 million seems high for that timeframe.

        Yeah, you’re right. I was playing Tribes 2 around that time and it came out in 2001.
