I started with System 7 on the Mac and because of that I had to quickly learn ResEdit and hex editing. Ironically this made me better later in life with windows and Linux, that shit is a breeze in comparison.

Also HyperCard fucking slapped

I used ResEdit to fix an issue with my school's email system.

Someone used a Hypercard stack I made to "break" a computer, It got me banned from the school computers. Same school even.

The AOL amateur HyperCard game scene was like Newgrounds before flash. I wish the world was still that simple sometimes. Or, at least, that fun.

You and me both.

But did the world get less simple/fun or did we just become more aware?

Unsure.

Damn, newgrounds, all the nostalgia in this thread.
