The TrekBBS "I remember when..."

[Amaris]

^ I remember that. Oh God that was great!
That also reminded me of this:

Hee hee, I turned green!

I remember the Star Trek Nemesis Forum.

 

[RoJoHen]

I remember coming up with the current motto for the DS9 Forum shortly after the series ended.

As you can tell, avatar sizes have improved with time. Mine was the max allowed when I first used it.

Heh...I remember making that from a really horrible 3rd generation VHS capture. Trust me, if it had been any bigger it would have sucked that much more.

I took a few minutes to throw together a better quality version at the newer av size if you ever feel like going back to it again.

Somebody suggesting a good way to get the masses to watch Star Trek was to have a huge parade convoy going through every city advertising it, with floats, celebrities, etc. I forgot the poster's name, and couldn't tell if he was joking or serious, but damn that was a funny thread.

Oh, jeez. I don't know who that was, but your post made me think of another old-time crazy: the guy who wanted us all to pool our money so we could build a full-sized, for-real Enterprise. On the ground, presumably, JJ Abrams-style. I can't remember his name, either.

I think it might have been the same guy, because I remember that thread too. All I knew what that his screenname was in all caps.

You're thinking of tri, who wanted to build a life-sized Enterprise-B out in the Sahara Desert and open it up as a hotel. It would be paid for by a combination of our own funds and hitting up rich Trekkies like Bill Gates for money. The name of the thread was "serious proposel concerning ship"

tri later spawned SOLOMON, who put forth the tactless "proposel" that a life-sized TOS Enterprise be constructed at the World Trade Center site. SOLOMON actually gained more noteriety for his threads in Trek Tech where he tried to promote "blood electrification" as a cure for cancer, AIDS, and Hepatitis C.

 

[T'Baio]

I remember my most successful thread ever.

Oh, wait...that'd be this one.

 

[Roshi]

double post...

 

[Roshi]

I remember when Enterpriser replied in tens of threads thus spamming the entire board...
The Leading Light of Freedom indeed...

THANK YOU! Now I remember!

Lately, it's kinda like Enterpriser never really 'left' - his username has popped up more often than if he was actually still posting.

Goddamn it!!! Twice this week! wtf happened?

You got greeeeeedy

Ok I know getting near the 8000 posts mark but still...
Anyway, regarding the recurrence of the-former-poster-who-shall-not-be-named, you gotta admit he did quite some damage to our collective consciousnesses...

 

[An Officer]

I hardly remember the guy. What little I do, he seemed pretty ordinary. Perhaps I just somehow miraculously (if he was so prolific) missed his posts. What did he do to make himself banned and so infamous?

Yup, SOLOMON was the guy. I wish I could have saved those thread he made. That guy was a character.

Other than being an asshole? Things like collecting data and stalking someone...

This is exactly what he wanted: legendary status. And now we can't forget him...

That doesn't sound so ordinary after all...

Because of him, new rules had to be enforced. He pretty much instigated the whole new rule sets we all had to adjust to.
