Phil 5,119 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 You know what’s truly remarkable or terrifying about 2017? It’s the fact that just over half way through this year, the VHL will be celebrating a decade of life. That… is … just.. well I’m not even sure how to phrase this. It’s staggering. And I’ve been here since 2009, and it’s felt like I’ve grown up with the members still hanging around here. I’ve seen VHL members get girlfriends, engaged, and then married, and in some cases have children. I’ve seen high school students graduate, go to college or university, graduate, and then get full-time jobs. It’s really quite amazing to me that throughout this ever-changing and dynamic process of life, that something as fragile as a sim league has managed to stay a constant for now close to 10 years. It’s been a ride and a half and I still remember calling David @Knight a nerd for being involved in sim leagues. I realize that for myself, why I enjoy so much is because of all the great nerds who are on here. Because we are… we’re all nerdy about something.

DollarAndADream 3,356 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 I wish @Kendrick advertised this league on the Canucks message boards back in 07 so I could have been here earlier.

Commissioner Beketov 9,033 Posted January 6, 2017 Commissioner Share Posted January 6, 2017 I literally fit all the criteria you mentioned except having kids haha. Since the VHL started I got a girlfriend, graduated high school, went to u oversight, graduated university, got engaged, got a full time job, and got married.... god damn I've been here a long time. It has been one hell of a decade I gotta say. Phil 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/36791-we-approach-a-decade/#findComment-401668 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotAVHLM-GM 1,858 Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Well the girlfriend was there when I started in the VHL, but ever since I got married and had two kids. So the VHL was there during some lifechanging moments Phil 1 Link to comment https://vhlforum.com/topic/36791-we-approach-a-decade/#findComment-401669 Share on other sites More sharing options...
