The 'oldies' of TrekBBS reunite...

[1001001]

Wow, Oct. 10, 2000. I been stuck in this place ever since. While we're here, let us have a moment of silence for Old Blue. Old Blue, we miss you.

Miss it?

I'm using it right now.

 

[All Seeing Eye]

At what point exactly do you get classed as an "oldie"?

Same here. First few hours it hurt my eyes, but after I got used to it I kept it, and haven't looked back since.

I find it soothing. Reassuring.

As do I.

Some of these names are like a trip down memory lane.

 

[trampledamage]

That's what I love about this place - it doesn't matter how long I'm here, I'll always be a newbie!

 

[Hunter X]

Me too. I've just passed eight years on this board, but as soon as most of the posters who are in this thread show up, I feel like I'm a lurking newbie again.

Now all we need is a bar thread...

 

[Puritan]

^ Good to see you back.

Hey Officer, how's it going? What happened to your suffix?

 

[Lee T]

This current persona exists since september 2004, I lost my first incarnation (under the same alias) after a long hiatus from the board. I don't even remember when I first logged and posted on this board.

 

[An Officer]

Hey Officer, how's it going? What happened to your suffix?

Great! I was stretching pages... doesn't sound quite as cool, but I've grown to like the blandness of it.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

This is making me long for a relaunch of TrekTonight.

We really don't.



(Why is there a "Cardie" smiley that looks like Frankenstein, by the way? SALEEL MAJEED would not approve.)

I think it looks like a Cardassian.

Oh no you didn't.

Why would you want to get used to it! Good god, my eyes are killing me after only a minute!

 

[Neopeius]

I'm a Johnny Come Lately having only been here 7.5 years. Came for the TOS, stayed for the TNZ, now mostly back in TOS.

 

[Sakrysta]

I'm part of the Voyager finale influx of spring 2001. Jammer & Jim Wright led me here through their devious linkages in their reviews. Took a bit of a break when TerranBBS was at its height - liked the smallerness of the board and got to do reviews and stuff. Anyone hear from Wraith anymore?

Anyway, I've always been fringe-oldie - knew all the names, but wasn't really part of "the crowd." Still, love the nostalgia threads; all the old familiar names...

Speaking of - Morn the Lorian, JeffK...

Or a Fireside Chat.

Or a new CaptainWacky Rates the Mods thread. Now with a list of how each VIOLATED CANON! (Because it's trendy)

Nostalgia, obviously. Besides, my eyes hurt when I go back to the grey now.

Was it you oldies that brought the board down? Or was it just me having problems getting here this morning?

 

[Akiraprise]

I've been here over five years now. Feels like forever, but I see I'm just a noob compared to some of the fossils around here.

I've been modding the infamous VOY forum since March of 06.
