But you were 1️⃣9️⃣ when you made PPG and maybe even 1️⃣7️⃣ or 1️⃣8️⃣ because it takes time right??? 😳😳
HOW DID YOU DO THAT???? You didnt even study for it yet right!!! 😲🙄
Yes I was 18, I picked up programming when I was 15 (my code quality was terrible then, but I guess it worked? 😛)
I guess it's a good time to ask @Etienne about his feelings after 17 years of penpaling and work on this website. Did you somewhat reach what you expected to do at first or not? Maybe did it go beyond your expectations?
Have you ever imagined that, 17 years later, you'd still be on that project and have someone opening a topic to celebrate it?
Anyway, thanks for the forum. I'm not so active by private messages, but the forum sure offered me a nice place to put my lugages and find about people from different background 😉
I probably wouldn't have thought I'd still dedicate so much time on this project many years later. I'm happy with all the features that PPG offers today, most penpal websites out there don't offer nearly as much and have even seemingly stopped receiving updates many years ago. I just wish Google recognized that and ranked PPG a bit higher, the competition is very tough it's hard to get new members. 🙁
That said I'm very happy that many people found meaningful friends, and some even found their soulmate! I said it before and I'll say it again: THANK YOU to everyone who participate in PPG, especially those in the forum because they are the most visible. Thank you for making it such a fun an active place, I really mean it, you are the core of everything! 🙂
