Wow, I forgot how much Pogo has changed over the years. That really did bring back memories.

OMG that's so wild! I started pogo waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back before go.com flopped. (My current "member since" date is even older than that first Nov 99 screenshot, and I even lost my original go.com account when they flopped!) I played EZ win bingo back then, and have 2 online friends I still keep in contact with from those days. (One of them sent me flowers on my birthday last month! :) ) Then roulette came out, and made another dear friend. We talk on the phone STILL a few times a week, and visit once or twice a year. From all those visits, I became friends with her two sisters, and was in one sister's wedding 3 years ago. Then came video poker, where I ironically ran into a "homeboy" I knew in high school, back in ole West "By God" Virginia. (I almost married his brother, in fact..) Then I got tired of chatting on pogo - tired of hearing everyone complain about their lives, and only did private chats with the "old crowd from back in the day." It's really refreshing having this forum now, because I do kinda miss chatting online, but I just can't tolerate the BS that people talk about in pogo.

Anyway, thanks for the memories!! <3

Kinda off topic, but I used to go to a site back in the day where I could play board games with other people like Clue, Sorry, Monoploy.... believe it was www.play.games.com, but I can't seem to find them now. Anyone know what I'm talking about?

most likely could be http://iwin.com (also known as Playsite), which that site has turned into hell when the new owners took over... I still go there from time to time, but the new owners are replacing the classic games with flash one's, so they will lose even more players - they lost around 10,000 players when they didn't sign another agreement with Hasbro games, which made them delete Scrabble, Battleship and Monopoly...

the lady who works in the main office is a total b!tch and is so illiterate... don't argue with her, she'll always think she's right.

or you might be talking about http://games.com, but that was purchased by AOL. The new games.com is called http://games.atari.com.
