Wow...I've just spent 1h reading topics here and been surprised by how much I remember and recognize nicknames... I should really be asleep now as I have work tomorrow as Document Control on a large project by ABB.
I don't remember what year I started actually, 98-99 somewhere perhaps. I chose the nick simply from the placement of the keys on the keyboard

I joined Monistary not long after I started and stuck there as long as it was active, won DSB Life one time, still find it fun to mention I was a world champion in an online game once

Started a squad and ran it for one league season if I remember correctly, can't remember the name of it though...
I also remember having to pay alot for my addiction when I was still living at home with a dial up modem, and that my girlfriends back then complained about my playing. I got quite addicted and screwed up my first year at University partly because of it. I also became a great whiner (as some of you might remember - Hi Milk
Ah I could go on for ages but I have to go to sleep shortly.
I am now turning 32 this year, I have a girlfriend since 6 years and a dog. Live in Västerås in Sweden if you happen to drop by.
Nice topic and fun to see that miraculously DSB is still around and some of the vets. Shame there seems to be a shortage of people playing these days. Have to install continuum again and have a go

Someone should develop an Android client!
Have fun
