The 'oldies' of TrekBBS reunite...

[AdAstra]

What am i doing here with all these old farts around.....

Young blood is nice to have.

 

[Rob Hal]

We knew the risks that we took everytime we typed in that URL.

You mean you never bookmarked it?

Nah... it felt more official typing it in... like the password to some magical land.

I was a rookie mod back in 2003 Rob, but I got to see your iron fist in action in the TNG forum.

Indeed. The TNG Forum has, is, and always will be a very scary and immoral land. I kept the crazies at bay for as long as I could... but every day during my harsh reign, I governed on the very edge of madness. The inhumanity that flourished in the the hysteria of that wretched hellhole... it was indescribable. Even today, I can still smell the napalm in the wind and see the blood on the walls. I lie awake at night, forever haunted by the nightmares that I witnessed in that infernal place.

Damn you Worf/Wesley/Data slash fanatics! Damn you all!

 

[Mr Awe]

Calling all the originals of this board !!!

If you can remember the infamous Voyager flame wars, The Rob Hal World Order, rolled your eyes at Starman's spamming attempts, loved Cureboy's purple ranting shoes and asked the question "where's Core?"... then this is the thread for you !! You may post here everyday or you may post only once every couple of years... but whatever the case, drop in, say g'day and let us know what you're doing these days.

I was here then but more of a lurker. I've actually visited the board for a decade but haven't been a member for that long.

I appear to be member 2927. I bet Daniels was born then.

 

[Nobody]

I just checked, and I'm number 68. I was somewhere in the 160's beforehand I think. It's amazing my ability to lurk here. Most places I just bail on. This place is definitely laced with something.

^ 35 puts you in a unique situation. You're not allowed to attend any TrekBBS state of the union addresses. In case a of a terrorist attack that kills 1-34, you will ascend to the top.

I never get to go to the fun parties...

I can't seem to find my member number either... where in my profile precisely should I be looking?

Fastest way is to roll your mouse over the link to your profile embedeed in your username in any post of yours and it appears in the status bar at the bottom of your browser.

 

[Data Holmes]

You know... I wonder just how many of those "lost accounts" from the old board were Trolls and Dual accounts.

 

[An Officer]

^ Cool. I can take a peak at others too without having to go into their profile. I see you're 35 - you must have joined back in the last century!

 

[1001001]

Is that number a seniority thing, or a number of posts ranking?

 

[An Officer]

I believe it's connected to your join date.

And Holdfast is 35???

Did he come with the domain or what?

 

[Bob The Skutter]

He has always been here. Even before the first ones. Or maybe he pushed in the queue, no one knows.

He knows you have to show up early to get the good sale bargains.

I love you.


I joined back in 1999, on a lazy day in late summer I believe. Though actually, I'd been lurking for months beforehand. I'd even posted in the earliest days of the board that spring (under a different name) before Christian turned on the Registration requirement for posting.

 

[ancientone51]

Wow! 417...I've been here a while.

 

[Rob Hal]

Hey, I'm number 30! I call seniority over Holdfast.

Hey, I'm number 30! I call seniority over Holdfast.

That's why you got to mod TNG before me.

 

[Rob Hal]

Just softened the place up for you.

As the Emergency Moderating Hologram, Holdfast was part of the original ubb software. When Christian made the switch to vBulletin, he elected not to upgrade to the newer, blonder Mark II as Holdfast had been running 24/7 and accumulated many unique memories, subroutines, personality traits, and clothes.
