Almost, but that's fine. I've probably been absent more than active here at this point. I do still drop in from time to time at least.Not completely forgotten
TLE, posters like us don't need to be remembered... we KNOW that we're board legends...
We built this place with blood, sweat and tears... a little bit of spam.
"a little bit of spam?" That's an understatement. This place was built on a mountain of it.
I can't remember their names right off, but they flamed me across all the forums due to a story I wrote, and I decided it wasn't worth it so changed my username and started anew. Now, I just like posting in the caption contests instead
And you can't have them back!Wow. I didn't realize it had been 9 1/2 years for me.
Hey, speak for yourself, some of us were getting paid while doing this....
Did I say that out loud?
I've had this account active sense april 2001, but I joined up earlier. It was the end of 99 or real early 2000. I went into the TOS forum and tried to argue with Mr Stinky pants and a few others on Klingons, Canon, and the first edition of the Star Trek Encyclopedia...
Suffice it to say, I got my ass handed to me. So I laid low and lurked for a time. I lost that account because I forgot the user and password and the email I had used to sign up went poof over night and I never noticed.
I fell into TNZ early... Rereg'd so I could get involved in a gun control thread which Major Bareclaw was in. I remember that from my first night back posting.
Anyone heard from Orian Randy lately. I remember when he left because he hated the way the board looked after the upgrade and the shift from Big Blue to UGO Gray.

Aw, those are three very good words.
aussie, I'm surprised that you don't remember the purge.. I was certainly still around for it. If I recall correctly, I ended up being the first poster to hit 10000 posts... and I had to do it twice!Oddly enough though, I remember the earlier board periods than the later ones.
You know, it kinda rings a bell... but I can't specifically remember it. Maybe I'd come and gone by then... I can't really remember when I moved away from TrekBBS (I know I went to Terran... though I'm a very bad contributor to there as well, sorry Santy
).10 years, yeah...Not many can lay claim to that.
I can... yay for me !! (get a life Penny
).How are you Joshie? I haven't seen you online in forever.
Hi to everyone else... it's so nice to see so many familiar faces. It is a bit of a highlight of my day just to check in here and see who else has shown up (did I mention I don't get out much?? *LOL* Actually, I did go and see The Wiggles in concert today, *that* is what I've become !!).
Reading this thread is almost like stepping back in time...
That's this place all over. stagnant, so we go over the same stuff over and over again, that's why it seems like stepping back in time.aussie, I'm surprised that you don't remember the purge..

My children and I are very jealous! They only come to Saskatoon every few years. They were here last year so my daughter got to see them, I'm just hoping they come back soon enough that my son can go too.
One in reply: Zun.
Registration date of July 2001:
All I'll say is that T'Bonz's rule has really quieted this place down. Board politics used to be be a twenty-four seven roller-coaster. From the trolls to the constant warning/ban policy changes...This place probably had more attempted coups than anywhere else on the net...

I can't say I know what the "Wiggles" are but I'm going to take a shot in the dark and say they're some kind of children's entertainment.
Mostly I can be found in WoW these days though I've made an attempt to get into the whole Facebook craze. It's already giving way to another social network, or so I've heard though.
Incidently, my registration number is the unlucky 13. I know it used to be 50 something but with all the prunings I guess I got knocked up to 13 with the software transfer.

So nice to see some of the familiar names come back. I've been here since 2002 (September 11th to be exact) but changed usernames in 2003. I miss those days.
