previous usernames?

Well, the title pretty much says it all. What were your previous names? I figured this would be useful if we're trying to find someone we use to talk to , or want to be found :)

"I started using Bolt (like a crack addict to crack) back in 98"

haha, same here… no chat rooms though, just wandered from tagbook to tagbook, from group to group…

I was DreamNY

I believe it was angie_marie. I still think the original Bolt I joined was the best. I miss the games, badges, things to do and people to talk to. Oh well.

[silvercharmer]

I miss it too! I made some cool friends on that thing. I'm glad Bolt's back tho.

[CynthiaVS]

oh, yes, I really liked the old bolt (hated it when they changed it to boltfolio). I still think bolt was better than other sites like MySpace & Facebook, I never understood why they destroyed it.
I liked the games and badges too but my favourite was the tagbook (that was its name, right?).
Also I think bolt provided the most complete "About you" pages… so many questions, so many options… I remember there were 3 ages, right?… was one called "honey sth…" It's been such a long time, I hardly remember it…

[silvercharmer]

I don't remember. Crazy.

[mr_turnips]

I agree. They tried so hard to compete with new competition that they totally forgot that they had something unique on their hands.

[Aranka]

Oh wow, I remember you as angie_marie for sure!
How have you been?

(I was Apekop83)

[red.priest]

Agreed, but I forgot about the badges! It was so much more personal than any of these pop sites are now. Almost like a worldwide version of Cheers.

[mr_turnips]

That seems familiar... Were you a member of The Stupid Club?

[silvercharmer]

I'm pretty sure it was "silvercharmer." I use the same SN for pretty much everything since the beginning of time. LoL

[CynthiaVS]

I think I remember you…

[silvercharmer]

Crazy! I was on the original site for YEARS. I was super involved for the first three, for sure.
