It'll go down as soon as Charles purges all the unused memberships.

Charles Capps is rumoured to have said:
"Here's the really old UI, alas without the images.
Dude, almost all of the forum descriptions are the same."



"If it ain't broke, don't fix it", said the penguin to the slightly smaller, female penguin.

Oh, the stab of nostalgia at the sight of ye olde forum colors, delves deep in me cockles indeed, yarr. :-)=

So am I the oldest active member (with original name) who still has too few posts for a senior member tag line? I think I might be.... Captain Mike..I was a startrekker.net chatter too until it died. No other chat site has ever been the same...sniff.

Alright, I may be a little affected by having taken my cough-medicine just now, the stough's laced with morphine, but anyway!

I just want to say how happy I am with Flare being what she is. Her attitude, quality, standards and traditions.


I just came from visiting a small public forum on a GameSpy computer-game website.
I have some plot problems in a game so I thought I'd visit the corresponding forum and post my problems, simple.
I'm already a free member to GameSpy, so I'm automatically a member in all "Planet*****" gamesite forums, very convenient.

It turns out I came a close shave from being banned silly, after five minutes!
For saying "damnit".
Even had I said "d4mn1t".
The context was "I want to persuade Galrone but he still won't damn talk to me!"


So I fill my glass and toast to Flare.
Although some words of malice uttered here at times could do with a second thought before posting,
I appreciate the confidence TPTB place in us to choose our own words and let us talk like human beings and not robots.
Damnit! :-)=


To our little four-year old, may she grow up to be as pretty as her mother!

Charles's totalitarain heavyhanded rule of the board, has resulted in more freedom to speak here then any other board I have visited. I have pointed this out to others, without using his name, or flares, to people who put so much time into writing rules for there boards. The "Slipstream Underground" people knew who and where I was talking about. I think Major Barclaw was a member there.

No one else will even give it a try. Over regulation has killed one board, and turned the other into a police state, as much as a message board can be anyway. I come here now, and Ex Isle, where former Streamers hang out. They have guide lines that some of the members insisted on. Not as bad as some I've seen, but I prefer it here.

Well, he does understand the difference between freedom of speech and idiocy. I guess thats why people keep coming back.

I lurked at the behaviour group, then at the others, before joining here... Then I wondered to myself, what have I done.... Then I said, aww, to heck with it.

The funniest thing I found that happened on the days I made my first post was this....

"...you know, Omega, there's a phrase you might want to look up. It goes something like "paranoid arrogant fuckwit who has more chance of ejaculating to the moon than he has of ever convincing a girl that he's a viable prospect for marriage." -PsyLiam, September 16, 2000 10:23 PM.

32 minutes before I posted.....

Someone had it in their sig for a while. It made me feel all special. I then bet that specialness down at the dog track, and lost it all. Curses.

Can't remember what the quote was in respect too though. Something to do with puppies, maybe?

--------------------
Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.
