With my original account it was way back in the dawn of the site, simply because it interested me and I wanted to talk with like minded people.


...Edit

I wasn’t banned or anything, just lost access to the account because I changed email accounts and god knows what one it was then.

First, personal reason:
After reading here for a while I thought: "Maybe I can finally be of some use in my life." and started contributing to some threads as good as possible. Learning anything is very hard work for me, but I'm glad I started reading about the 3DS (the topic/console that interests me the most from softmod perspective). I already mentioned this a few times: GBAtemp is like a therapy. Feeling a little less useless and getting some appreciation sometimes – even if it is just from random strangers online – feels good.

The second reason:
Such a community is important; teaching people how to get full control over the devices they paid for – as it should be by default.

The third reason:
Learn and teach how to repair things in order not to waste anything.

First sign-in wasn't really a sign-in as it was back when the site first opened to host GBA roms.
After that it was a decade of lurking before creating an account - probably to ask something about homepass at the time.

edit ...out of curiosity, I just found my first post...

Just joined yesterday to find some help with Dolphin. Also is it required to become a member before you can actually get replies to your thread or was I just insanely unlucky?

Probably just unlucky.

Originally joined here to get some help on some flashcart I bought. Ended up switching flashcarts and then later on hacking my DSi.

I wanted to bitch about not being to play the Japanese versions of Pokemon SSHG and M&L Bowser's Inside Story. The site was so overflowed with guests and users that they temporarily locked the site off from guests, so I was forced to join in order to bitch. This was actually a throwaway account that I never intended on logging into again unless I needed to complain. I guess I never stopped complaining.

This was my throw away account. 22 thousand posts later.
