Yes it is. And this was my first forum and one of the best and most friendly i've seen

My first forum memories are my long conversations with Klyco about different types of "Chucks".

Then getting threatened by Viper for spamming.
Then trying to put Viper on my ignore list
Then learning that Viper was a mod.

I started to shape up then.

Hehehe. I never that about you Shiney. A bit ironic that you were a spammer and now you give mod warnings to spammers.

If you're willing Nafoi, would you make a thread about "ShinyShinyShinies" in the 'good old days'?

videogamerz2000 · 10-13-2004, 04:32 PM

As for me, yes, this is my first, only, and probably last forum to ever be on.
I remember my youthful days here (almost a year ago!)

Playing Calvinball.
Pissing off RaiRai and Shiney with my poems.
Pissing off Shiney. And RaiRai.
Pissing off Ih8makingnames.
Pissing off BMHadoken.
Being pissed off.
Quickly altering my attitude.
And all in my first 2 months!

Ah... the good ol' days.
Maybe, with a little patience and luck, maybe I could become a mod as well...
but I highly doubt it.

This was my first forum. My first thread was the good olde "E-Doken" back when the "general" forum was called "random" and I took it to heart. E-Doken is also known as "the thread that would not die" since it got ressurrected about 5 times before Mashie finally closed it at my request. God that was an embarassing topic.

Anyway, yeah, I remember those days. Everything was a bit more ephemeral, some people had been there forever, some people had only just shown up, but there was no way of telling which is which. At least now, you know when someone's at least been here for a few months.

shiney · 10-13-2004, 07:43 PM

You've come a long way videogamerz. A while back I remember reading a post of yours and thinking to myself, "Wait a fucking minute, wasn't he some giant shitcock back in the day? Bloody hell."

I think I even asked Rai if you used to be a douchebag. Clearly you no longer are. Good on you.

I've been to a couple other boards but some bugged the hell out of me with multiple *SPOILER* written all over the posts and huge animated sigs that took up pages at a time. I was at a Legacy of Kain board for awhile but it moved rather slowly and eventually I lost interest. At the same time most of my time was being taken up so it seemed a natural transition out. Then I came upon this board.

This board is the best run board I've come across. I was a little wary at first because of the tighter spam rules but those are pretty easy to get used to.

Demon with a Glass Hand · 10-13-2004, 08:07 PM

There were a few forums that I participated in before this one. Came close to modhood in one of them.

But this is the only one that I have spent a long while in. This is a really great forum with some really great guys and gals. Wouldn't trade in my experiences here for anything.

*wipes away tear* You guys (and gals) ... you rock ... *sniff*

I joined back in the late TWC days, and it was the first real forum I joined. Can't say that I was ever a reformed spammer like our mods, since I actually read the rules way before I joined, while I was still a lurker.

These days I'm part of the official CoH forums, though I only read the dev's digest thread, since its like friggin' GameFAQs in there >_<. I'm part of a forum dedicated to my laptop's make and model, although I only go there for news and tech questions. I frequently leave comments in a blog/forum hybrid site, where users blog posts are actually thread posts... yeah its a bit strange.

And I'll count the LJ CoH community as a forum, since it updates so freaking often.
