Whats your forum history?

I work at Bjorn\'s n64cc site so I met him and mm there...  I came here when the site started to see what Bjorn was up to...  I remember I first posted on the board when it had like 3 posts between Bjorn, mm, and some other guy...

After that I took off... came back in like a year and was amazed how far it came.  I posted for awhile as a mod  and disappeared again.  I\'m back for a while now... It\'s definitely the best board I\'ve seen, but I\'m not a big enough PS2 fan to have that much fun around here.

I try my best.

ddaryl I remember you from psx2.net:)

Well I was here in 99, but mostly lurking. Back in 99 I was hitting the y2k boards alot...yeah-yeah, I know:rolleyes:

I was looking for PS.2 sites.Wrote stuff like psx2center.com and stuff in the browser,until I finally wrote psx2central.com in my browser and this little gem of a site popped up.
I started lurking on the forums did so for months,I remember when ddaryl and Sammy were just newbies ,Soulgrind was still Nathan etc...
Didn\'t register till October (sadly )
Now I\'m hooked on these forums.

I came here because Hawkey recommended this place. So I said I\'d register. Well, that was easier said than done, cause they wouldn\'t accept my one & only e-mail address. So I made a couple of new ones, but they were unaccepted too. Finally I got an address through. At first I was too shy to post anything, so Hawkey made a thread called "to SmallLady" heh. So I posted there. Then I started posting to other threads too. And finally some people started to notice me, mostly because I\'m a girl. They asked a lot of questions. Like was I really a small lady. Stuff like that. It was nice. Then I remember when the chat started, it was great, talking to other members. I felt close to a couple of them, especially Samwise! But those days are gone thanks to the closing of the chat.

During my stay here I\'ve encountered some great people, but idiots too, as is inevitable. Sometimes they have made me furious. Most of the time I\'ve just ignored them. Then there are those kids who don\'t believe I\'m a girl. I really don\'t think much of them. Then there are the arrogant bastards who just wanna fight. They\'re funny. But, most of the posters here are great & intelligent.

Such is the story of my memberhood. It\'s been great and I don\'t intend to ever leave! Bwahahahahaa

my history at message boards is quite long.

In the middle of 1999, I joined the ShinForce message board after looking around for import Saturn games and looking around at Final Fight Revenge news. After a couple weeks of looking around at the page, I joined and posted frequently at the board, which is still up today, just in a shadow of it\'s former self. At the time I joined it was a very popular board, for it\'s time, Chris, Kelly, Shinobi, MGX, Crash, etc were very frequent there and we had our in depth discussions about sega and the rest of the videogame world. Crash was a big time Sony and Nintendo fan (we finally converted him THIS year to buy a DC and he has never been sorry for that fact, especially with all the cheap games you can buy now!)  

During the summer months, though that board always cooled down, so I ventured out looking for other Sega boards, as my fanhood lied after my third PSX broke down (always been a Sega fan, I was just more open to buying console from other companies at the time) I went to Webcrawler, my ONLY search engine and typed in Sega messageboard. I joined under the name NeoSega, my name as it is on EVERY board besides this one (I registered on NeoSega here first, then forgot the password ) Immediately I fell in love with the members there. The moderation was swift and exact, therefore there was no fanboyism, no fanboy fights and no crap on the main forum. Some notable posters we had were Sonic (a Sega worker, provided many usefull facts and help), Egg Robo X (a kid who got caught lying about his uncle working for Capcom ), Ktulu / Wiseblood (used to frequent this board, the most knowledgable, unbiased poster in my experience! H3@t, (a fun guy!) DC Hypno (jumped out of window in every post!) including everyone else.
I was highly revered there and did a weekly feature on past Sega rpg\'s that was a fun topic. I miss that place and was deeply saddened that one of my hobbies closed down at the beginning of this year when it closed down,as the owner was tired after all these years.

During this time, to fill my insatiable appetite for posting, I also joined UGO\'s board, DC tech pages, and a couple of others I never really posted at.

Than in Jun,I started looking around again,a nd had heard good things of this board, originally as a high basher of Sony and an informer of the wealth that Sega brings to all that succumb, I posted here. At first, I argued with many (and usually won, btw ) but then settled down adn decided to take the mellow road and decided to buy a PS2, as Sega decided to make for it, and TM:B was coming, among others. I realized all platforms have good games to play, but still love to argue with fanboy sover anything, which is the reason you will usually only see me post in the console debating section, and not the main forum as it has become boring as of late.


thanks a bunch!

*bump

I fell off the jungle-gym and I woke up here.

I came here March 2000.

Someone on another PS2 site gave me a link to psx2central. So thats how I found this site.
Psx2 cen. is still the best PS2 site for information and the forum roxs

I havent posted here much. I read most of the time.
Thats why I "only" have over 560 posts..

/FAST

Whell.. what an interesting little post.. I was looking through some search results when I accidentally stumbled on this. I have to say, the relatively thin volume of replies shows the grim situation as far as the population of the hard-corers here, is concearned.

Back in the early days, when hype was rife and excitement high, all sorts of colourful hardcore characters were here (barring all the trouble makers). I fondly remember the names of Oyuki, Regent Webber, Dolbytone, etc. regualry gracing these boards with their wise words of wisdom.

I remember the old private forum, establshed as a safe haven for all true fans to discuss the PS2 in peace. Oh the hordes of DC fanboys and PS2 detractors were simply amazing. The atmosphere was akin to the one presented in 182way\'s adorable little RPG.

After some assertive measures, things began to quiet down and the old private board was closed. The Off-Topic board was soon opened and so began my reign as a forum moderator, my kingdom as it were. The same month, my iron fist wrapped itself arround a reformed X-dome, as I took my post as 2nd in command.

Great things were destined to happen since. The most memmorable of which was the massive Kick Thread. Many sought to match is glory with cheap spam fests, but 500 word posts of pure creative energy made certain KICK was uncontested. None could compare to the sheer greatness, that was KICK.... (over 20 pages long)

Unfortunatley, what should have been solid history became the stuff of mere memmory, as KICK\'s sheer weight failed to make the trip to the new forum server. It was lost in digital oblivion, never to be seen again, its story told only by the Psx2Central Elders, who lived through it.......

And so began the spate of downs that were to dog every medium/large fansite on the internet. Cashflow problems emerged as due payments for ads were so maliciously left unpaied. Data traffic restructions resulted and eventually.... the FORUMS WERE CLOSED!!!! I consoled myself with, whell.. ConsoleDome and sought to fill the void.......

Until school imposed its overbearing weight on my unprioritised schedule. As time\'s eternal wheels rolled to leave the past behind, so did my time for leasure. Each new day saw more homework on my desk, the workload, seemingly riding on some morbid exponential function. Fate\'s inexplicable cruelty saw it fit to use this, to keep me off-line for weeks at a time.....

My long absence resulted in things, undesired.. Shotly after the Forum\'s re-opening, I was declared unfit for office, my moderation powers - retracted. And here I am, the bulking shell of a forum poster, closing this post at the grimest of closing notes.

Fare thee well ConsoleDome
Viva la Uniconsoé!!

and

SmallLady thinx my "Knight Talk" :CUTE:!!!!

Wow, another great topic gets blown away by the members. I swear we could have a 3 page topic on apple juice...

Anyhoo, a historical event occured for myself today. After numerous pic changes I finally got the best pic. No one comes close to mine now. NO ONE! Muhuhhuhuhahahaha! Bow!

thank you, mm!

I started of at Nintendo Next Gen. It was a quirky forum of Nintendo zealots and one PS2 fanatic (Kenny73). I posted there for a while until someone mentioned how everyone at Nintendose sucked because they were stupid(or something like that) so naturally I went there.

I posted at Nintendose and CoreMagazine(What happened to them?). Eventually someone started a thread at Nintendose talking about the snobs at NintendoNation. So I had to go. I was there for a while and yet another thread about the PS@ fanboys at PSX2central started up. I went and lurked for a while and eventually registered under IcebergSlim(My name on all other message boards). I posted really slow at first and then I changed my name to Gohan and my post count went up drastically. I have been here ever since. This forum and a frat forum are the only forums that I visit everyday.

lurked here for a while, and registered while the forums were still that brown colour and Ddaryl was only 300 posts

didnt post much...started to post unnecessarily at times, straightened up.  became a responsible member.  hated jumpman (hes alright now though )

during my many months here, ive encountered many friends, SoulGrind (who i like to call Jack Ass), Samwise, Aaron, Small Lady, Starr, Weltall etc.  but probably got along with Phil (the crazy New Zealander) the most, even though i did believe he spammed a bit.

Most memorable moment at the forums for me would be the chat room. haning out with Samwise and others.  Listening to Small Lady speak (after much persuasion), listening to Samwises strangely asian accent, and many others.

next on my list of best memories would be the great battles Aaron and I brewed up in the infamous *Kick* Topic.  i hated that topic, and found myself against it after a while.  however, aaron and i sparked it up and made it pretty  interesting.

while most of the people ive encountered are interesting, some of the members really do get on my nerves a lot (even some of those \'well respected\' members, who will remain nameless)
