I miss TGT. Learned more from his posts than just about anybody. If he departed because of reaction to a poorly-worded or insensitive post, well, that's a damned shame. 'Cause lord knows I said my share of stupid stuff back in TNZ days.
I miss everybody from everything ever. Seriously, though, I wish I held on to a bunch of that stuff from way back then.
this is perhaps slightly off-topic but upon my return here after a 10 year absence I noticed that nobody seems to play "Trek me this" anymore. Back then it was one of the most popular games. I sometimes regret I didn't keep one of my first posts here where Bedpan Elemental accused me of being a dual of Che, based on the fact that - and I quote! - my "English was too good for a foreigner". BE overlooked the fact that Che is a foreigner, too. He hails from Goa iirc At that time I had just passed my Cambridge Proficiency Exam, one of the world's hardest tests which certifies that your grasp of the language equals that of a native speaker, hence Bedpan's error was quite a compliment, in a way Alas, my English has somewhat declined since. Lack of practize *sigh*
Here's a few from my personal archives that I rescued from a battered old CD recently. This is from "What if TrekBBS Had Its Own BBS?" The gag here was "What if TrekBBS Was An Actual Bulletin Board?"
I strongly disliked him at first for his complete disdain for anything other than the first 2 seasons of TOS but slowly got past that part. I eventually began to enjoy some of his posts (wasn't around for his comment that got him banned/made him leave).
I'll leave it to doubleohfive to post the balance of his hilarious videos but here is one of them. I also recommend his riff on the Sopranos.
doubleoh makes the best BBS videos. His version of the Star Wars opening crawl remains one of the funniest things that anybody on the board's made and posted online.
