World of Warcraft and Torn was released on the exact same day 17 years ago. For myself Wow came first then Torn, I was one of the 420XXX accounts that were deleted during the crash(Torn crash). I wonder how many of us are still playing.
Fun Fact...................

This is quite a cool little fact, and it's certainly close enough where I'd say it's not really an incorrect statement - as others have mentioned there's likely a little bit of wiggle room for things like WoW in terms …

cool
An interesting piece of history
Someone got their gift in the WoW mailbox today it seems...
The official date was a week later, but still that's very close....
That moment when you realize 2000 was really a very long time ago.

Odd, because today is the Blizzard's date, it has it on the calendar.
I googled it as well, odd. Your post is correct.

Still, a week apart is "released at the same time".
Seventeen years and both games still have a following.

WoW has a bit larger of a following than Torn, admittedly :P
I'm only a new player to torn, but I'm old enough to feel like 17 years ago was in the 90s.
Now I feel even older....

I've been staff for both!
Another fun, related, fact:
As of today, November 15, 2021, I have played Torn exactly 1639 more days than I have played WoW.

So, you're saying this game is retro
did the interface and content give it away? xD
id suspect if they do an aniversary event, it would be a full week, which is probs why its like that,
at least that'd be my guess

Plot Twist:
Ched owns WoW aswell xD

WoW has come out with 8 expansions since release, and we don't even get crimes 2.0...
I had done some research around this about a year ago. Here's the original post. I only found one player still active (Petzki) out of the 13 that were still created the day of servermagedden and had a quick chat with him at that time. However, he's now been offline for the last 112 days. Other than that, there may be others like you that created a 2nd account after the ordeal as well.
