The TrekBBS "I remember when..."

[T'Baio]

I remember when...I first joined, I'd give people like Enterpriser a tough time for posting all the time, implying they had no life and what not. Then I was called out with "well, what are you doing here?" I would always say that I only spent time here while at work, and that in my personal life I had way better things to do than hang out on a Trek message board posting shit.

Now I procrastinate from school, work, life...here when I'm bored...I feel like I'm here a lot.

CrackBBS, fo' sho'.

What do you remember?

 

[Alpha Romeo]

When Kirk wasn't as crazy...

 

[SPOCKED]

"I remember when..." the AL was an utterly unatainable pipedream in some distant netherworld. Oh and flashing envelopes

 

[Lindley]

I was there at the dawn.....well, no, I wasn't. But I remember the Christmas Day Massacre.

 

[Mallory]

I remember Lisa deleting the Enterprise forum by mistake.

 

[RoJoHen]

I was there at the dawn.....well, no, I wasn't. But I remember the Christmas Day Massacre.

I do not consider anyone a true TrekBBSer unless they were present for this event.

I remember when... Red Quacker was at the top of his game.

 

[Kryton]

I remember wondering what off-the-wall wacky thing Major Barcalow was going to post in the ENT forum each week.

Ahh...the flashing envelope. I always prefer to think of it as "the happy letter."

I miss the little happy letter.

 

[Cali]

I remember when I went by CalifornianStrawberriesinstead of just Cali.

Ahh...the flashing envelope. I always prefer to think of it as "the happy letter."

I miss the little happy letter.

I found it pretty annoying myself.

 

[ITL]

I remember when I entered the Misc forum and first saw this thread. It only had three replies...

Ah, them were the days.

 

[Amaris]

Ah, the little flashing envelope. I miss it too.

I remember logging off the week before Christmas and seeing a blue board, and having to register and log back in on Christmas day seeing a gray board.

I remember Dayton's diary threads.

[Misfit Toy]

I remember a multi-page MA thread about whether or not a link to an Amazon.com-offered book was allowed in TNZ.

 

[Alpha Romeo]

OH I FORGOT: I remember when none of us ever thought that sleeping with our mentally unstable cousin was funny.

 

[Kira's Mom]

I remember T'Bonz's Fireside Chats!

 

[T'Bonz]

*grins*

I remember "The Bar." Boy did we piss off people, left and right. But we had a ball!

 

[Jenee]

I hated the envelope.

I remember the Great Mongoose War of '06 (or was it late '05).

I remember when there were only trek related forums and I was chased away by an anti-trekkie in the trek technology forum and vowed I'd never again post on an internet message board.

good times ...

 

[Kira's Mom]

Every time I saw the flashing envelope, I thought, "Oh, crap...I'm in trouble", especially when I was a moderator.

 

[captcalhoun]

I remember when everyone started wearing avatars with NOT. DEAD. on...

and when the Sombrero craze was everywhere...

 

[Canadave]

I remember Big Blue and the Christmas Massacre...

Also those great Misc. competition things that used to be held in the summer. They were awesome, back in the day.

Crap, I'm getting nostalgic for a BBS... *logs out, realizes it's frakking cold outside, comes back and logs in again*
