Hey guys!

This post is mainly to the "oldies", or at least - relatively old at this point - since to any newcomers I might not be that relevant

I've recently been revisiting the forum a few times, and I just have to say that I'm amazed by the growth of the game and how far people are taking it. From it being posted on CarThrottle, to many big YouTubers playing it.

I've been looking through my old posts too and felt quite sad that I haven't been here as actively as I used to be. It feels like it's been ages since I was last here, so I thought I'd say a bit about what's happening in my life right now (in case anyone was curious I guess) I recently started a rather demanding college course and am taking a lot of steps to being able to get my dream job (I know, I'm 16, but good to start early right?) So I've been putting a lot of my time into that instead of things I used to do like 3D modelling and playing and streaming the Automation. And it's been going really well, I'm already going to do some work for Greenlight TV (the place I want to work) after Christmas, and who knows after that!

But on returning to the forum and looking through posts, it's great to see the forum growing into such a hive of activity. I barely know who any of the frequent posters are anymore!

I don't even know why I'm writing this post. I guess I just want people to know what's been happening and to just say hi to everyone again. I also just want to express the love I have for this game, and the people who are part of this community. You guys gave me a year full of fun challenges, great conversations and new friends. (Jesus this is so heartfelt)

Basically I want to say thank you to everyone here, and maybe I'll become more active again when my college course finishes. (I'm still in the Live Chat occasionally) I just felt the need to tell you how amazing you all are

Have a great Christmas, and congratulations to anyone who read all of that soppy drivel!

lol Pleb. Do your thing!!!

Haha, reading my old posts put me in a sentimental mood

well... hi, welcome back

You need to be more active man, we have noone to make Peugeot jokes at anymore.

Aaron! *screamshysterically*
Welcome back here man!

Hi there mate! Glad you're back!

My next College project is a bit better than the last, so maybe I'll have a bit more time for some Automation stuff.. (not Andrea ...stuff)

watch?v=4UePYvGyFfk
Just kidding.

Glad to know that everything is going well, and welcome back.

Welcome back, Aaron.

Onya Aaron, do what one must! Though you are missed...

Though I agree with you, it's really nice watching this game progressively realise all the things its creators had envisaged years ago.

Hi again.
And, you're 16 and taking college course???? What??
I dont understand. Where you are, you can enter a college without any other papers of schools before that?

Like, where i am, to enter a college, i need to finish my high school and get the paper(i forget the name, like the stuff they give you when you finish school), and we normally graduate HS at the age of 18. How you could enter a college at the age of 16 is beyond me

Aaron (pleb) lives on the Isle of Man. Their education system, much like some other things, are relatively unique.

hey welcome back man, glad to hear the education is coming along, no worries about taking time off for it the classes are far more important.

Your kind of college is probably equivalent to university here (or in the UK), college is a similar sort of thing, but they don't offer degree courses until the age of 18. What I am doing is essentially a course below a BA degree, which I have the option to do after my current course finishes in 2017.

And thanks for the replies guys, nice to see you are all still here too
