@Rock-(View Post) You are demanding that things from TPG are brought to TPT, are you not? And as I said, whether or not TPG came first has a 0% impact on how it compares to TPT. TPG, quite frankly, stinks. Nowhere near the quality of TPT
Skylark had Powder Toy lying around in his personal stuff for ages before it was ever published like it was, and that wasn't even on this present server, or even the one made years before then that effectively died on Unaligned.
...Even in light of that, Powder Toy originally was designed as only a pressure and air simulation. Then later 4x4 walls were added as a hack to prevent air from flowing, and for simply the fun of it, dust was added to flow along and drag in the air.
....Which means, that since Powder Game started with a wind and pressure grid, wall tiles to stack onto it, and dust...
That makes Powder Game the most epic ripoff ever o_o
TPT was created quite a while ago. It resurfaced into the new PT somewhat recently. I think I first discovered PT about... 4ish years ago (around 2005-2006). The reason you can't find any older dates easily is because the old website no longer exists.
Also @Catelite is very correct. TPT is geared towards complex creations that involve electronics or physics. Many of the original users would rather eat cow eyes than see superfluous elements being added constantly (this includes me). The fact that we even have stickmen is kind of surprising.
