| 5642 | Article | Maxine | one post by an old user recently posted - i'm tempted to say he's the last proper user of the whole forum. i made my acc on RJ in 2008 would be active until 2013 ish, i was never an active user and preferred to lurk, was also the girl nobody knew was a girl on there lmao | Remembering RetroJunk | May 28, 2022 | |
| 5739 | Article | Benjanime | Seeing all the comments here it saddens me that most of these users weren't even on this site for very long. I thought we'd see them fully make their home here. I suppose personal life things take more interest than coming back to a nostalgia site after so many years. | Remembering RetroJunk | Sep 10, 2023 | |
| 5793 | Article | crazyrandomgamer | I was a member of Retro Junk from November 2007 to about 2009-ish. I left because there were far too many debates about what is retro and what isn't, who was a kid of the 1990's, the age discrimination and all of the "stuff sucks now compared to when I was a kid" forum topics. Also didn't like the new design. However, the site brings back good memories for me. I'm not really too active on social media these days. Great article! | Remembering RetroJunk | Jan 28, 2024 | |
| 175 | Video | Vaporman87 | Wow, that's just... horrendous. LOL | Megaman X4 Iris' death scene | Jan 22, 2013 | |
| 1888 | Article | Vaporman87 | Ha! What a story. That is just cruel of your brother. I feel so bad for the young you, lying in bed, scared to death of your fate. Sadly, it is this type of thing that turns people away from most Christian denominations, and religion altogether. They don't like the idea of the slightest wrong doing damning them to a life in H-E-double hockey sticks (LOL). The truth is far more complicated than that, and likely none of us truly know it fully. But how could a child possibly understand that? That is why, unlike my parents, I do not wish for my kids to hear the "fire and brimstone" sermons. They can't comprehend it, and it will only make their life miserable at a time when they need to be loving it. No pastor or laymen is our judge, and nothing they say is infallible. Such things must be discovered and dealt with at a more appropriate age, and through their own research and contemplation. I don't want my kids scared into my religion. I want them to choose. Naturally, I want them to choose a certain path, but I can't allow them to be coerced by fear or guilt. That won't lead to a full or rich experience at all. Of course, they WILL deal with fear and guilt. But they must be able to comprehend a much larger picture. And right now, they can't. Anyway, on a lighter note, I LOVE the captions to the pictures! LOL. "there IS the matter of this 'thumb' thing". Awesome. | This Is Why I'm Going To Hell | Feb 05, 2015 | |
| 1890 | Article | echidna64 | Excellent article! Church was always an awkward experience for me growing up. Even at a young age, I never really believed in what was being taught, I kind of half-heartedly went along with it (although I was a full blown sucker for Santa Claus). I remember one time during summer bible school the lesson of the day was that if you said "I accept Jesus into my heart" you would be saved. I remember thinking, that's it? Just one magic phrase and BOOM you're in like Flynn? Also, there was crucifixion reenactment that came with a parental warning lol | This Is Why I'm Going To Hell | Feb 05, 2015 | |
| 1892 | Article | Hoju Koolander | Nice story, kept me in suspense wondering what the thumb thing was, then no explanation! Scholars will debate it for centuries. If anything I think your brother would go to hell for tricking you into that. Seems like rather devilish behavior to me. But if that was the case, every kid who ever said, "Psych!" would probably be feeling the poke of a pitchfork as well. | This Is Why I'm Going To Hell | Feb 05, 2015 | |
| 1894 | Article | fuschnikt | Thanks guys. I was unsure about posting this one. religion can be a weird subject for people. But I figured, if people are going to be posting about family stuff, this is my family stuff. So, why not? Besides, it also has a lot to do with the whole big brother/little brother dynamic. I actually teach Sunday school now. 2nd grade. Vaporman, you make some great points about children and religion. Having this story under my belt helps me a lot. Kids can take things very seriously. They see the world very differently than a grown up and think in different ways. Black and white, almost. As this story can attest, I fully believed that what I did was bad, and there was no coming back from it. In Sunday school I make sure that these kids know that there is a long life ahead of them. They may make mistakes, they may feel guilty about things or bad for doing things, but there is nothing you can't come back from. We take the opportunity to lay a foundation of the faith. We teach the stories and themes, the big picture stuff can come later when they are ready to really think about it, relate to it, and form their own real thoughts about it. | This Is Why I'm Going To Hell | Feb 06, 2015 | |
| 1895 | Article | Vaporman87 | Very well said fuschnikt. Those kids are in good hands with you. | This Is Why I'm Going To Hell | Feb 06, 2015 | |
