take a walk down memory lane...

[tiggz]

i was having fun with archive.org and looking up places i used to post and whatnot and i found some things that i felt like sharing.

for the TSSers. look at that! back when i still read spoilers and posted about them. the Magic Box! oh man, we had some fun. does anybody remember officially what year Gina closed the place down? i know batman made a replacement board for us, but it was never quite the same. oh and does anybody still have contact with MG? when we migrated to lj, he never did follow that i know of.

for the ck.netters/Kanies. i actually found an archive here and there of the message board, but there wasn't really anything all that interesting. i was really hoping i'd come across some of Rachel's insane ramblings because that stuff was classic!! i was trying to remember the ezboard address of the old cheese board, but couldn't and therefore couldn't see if any of the robots had picked up stuff before the great ezboard crash that lost all of our awesomeness. (run-on sentence much?) so if anyone remembers, let me know or just go to archive.org and see if any of the old posts are there. stuff from the Fight Club, for instance. there was some comedy gold in there that is probably lost forever.

for the Bronzers. man, i miss the way the board looked back then. plus, scroll down on that second link. ha!

for the Baters/Bronzers. this was my archive site that i've since taken down. the last day of the Bronze is there, my first day posting, remembering September 11 in 2002 and PBP in 2002. oh and there's also this and this, which document the Penlind debacle. scrolling through those boards was so much fun. there were so many of us posting back then. now it's, like, 5 or 6 regular posters and most of them i don't even like! *shakes head* how times have changed.

okay. thus endeth my walk. now it's time for chinese food.

Speaking of nostalgia - it's your Yay day.

Wow, good stuff. I'll have to save all that! Also, it's your yay day at the Beta.

[glow-boy.livejournal.com]

That brings back some memories. My first ever post is in there. And did that Moloch game ever work?

As the others have pointed out it's your Yay day over at the beta but since I can't post over there at the moment I'll say it here. Yay tiggy.

[tiggz.livejournal.com]

no, the Moloch game never worked. people would constantly come to the Bronze and ask about it though. it pretty much became a big joke.

and thanks for the Yay. do you want me to email Karri about you still not being able to post?

[glow-boy.livejournal.com]

Thanks for the offer but halfrek2 has already contacted them. :)

Apparently The Fuselage had problems with a couple of people with the same isp as me and when they were banned so was I. I can't post at either board at the moment. Which apparently makes it difficult to get me unbanned for some ultra technical reason I don't understand. *g*. Hopefully it'll be sorted soon.

You're the Yay of the Day at the Beta! Yay you!!!

[helygen.livejournal.com]

Oh wow! I recognise so many names, and it's cool to see the old threaded board again.
I still remember feeling totally stunned, and very tearful, when WB closed us down.

Thanks for posting these, hun

YAY TIGGY!

YAY YOU!!

And thanks for the stroll down memory lane.

I haven't been to the beta for probably 2 years. Most of the people I still want to keep in touch with are on eljay.

Plus I found my enjoyment of TV is greatly enhanced by not analyzing and discussing it to death. Don't get me wrong, I loved doing that with Buffy. It honed my writing and debating skills greatly.


*smooooooch*

I'm glad still friends with most folks from the bronze days, even if they are more scattered than ever. Friends on AIM, friends on lj, and I still hang out at the beta with friends there, however small it is now.

I often wish for the good old days when we were all posting under one roof, so to speak. But such is life.

I still have the last day of the old Bronze somewhere, will find it and put it back on line - the server it was on died but it's in my backup somewhere.

That was really neat to see that again. It's been a long time since I posted there.

MG actually created a website about the show and then remastered it into a personal website and now it's back under construction again. He has an email addy on there.

i knew he'd had a website, but i couldn't remember where it was. how the heck did you remember?

maybe i'll send him an email...

omg !! is sooooooooo miss that place :) good times

Okay, I finally read the Penlind boards, and, wow, I don't remember any of this! I think maybe I was convalescing then. So...do we know what happened? Was Penlind a big faker? If so, I gotta say, that seems like an awful lot of trouble to go to just to make up stuff....
