  1. I don't know, but it seems it is the same for most celeb-types, plain ol' ignorant! But I agree with you, there should be screening, especially if these girls are supposed to be a representative of sorts for a country or even an event.

     got married;

     

     

    I always knew you two kids would get hitched. You're a lucky man Ace. WE DEMAND WEDDING PICS!

     

    And I would have won the Miss America but I screwed up the Q&A.

     

    Oh lol! That's hilarious! I'm almost embarrassed for her.

     

    Yeah well there is a wedding pic floating around somewhere, heck if I know where it got to now. :unsure:

    Strider is on Facebook, doesn't post much but we have chatted now and then. He's ok :)

     

    And Onkel is in IRC still. weekends, mostly! I'll try and see if I can get him to sign up on here. So is Jaesun, technically, but he never talks. I don't think he actually looks at IRC. :(

     

    You can tell Onkel I still have his 'special' song that I created for him years ago. If he shows up I'll post it for him. :dancing:

  4. So, heard there was someone raisin' a big stink about a reunion of sorts for all the old BIS bums. Thought I'd show my ugly virtual mug after a little hiatus.

     

    Some sausage decided to take my old name, so I'll have to do things a little backward.

    Yeah seems kind of odd that someone took your old name then never even used it. What were they thinking? :blink:

  5. We all just talked about the varous BIS games in the appropriate forums, and pretended know about polics in the 'Ye Olde Pages' political forum. In WWOT forum we just talked about what any people talk about in such forums, and spammed pointless posts to see who could get the biggest virtual **** (post count). Anything to avoid actually do Uni coursework in my case.

    Reminds me, I'll have to dig out the last post counts and share them....

     

    Another thing, remember those stupid popularity threads? All the nominees pm'ing everyone to vote for him or her. I must have sent DOZENS of pm's promising special favors if they'd vote for me. LOL!

  6. I think what I liked most about the BIS forums was that the devs were part of the community. Even Feargus posted semi-regularly

     

    What happened to Puuk?

    Speaking of such, there is one here who was definitely part of BIS but has yet to join in. *casts suspicious glances at Fionavar*

    I have to be honest I am very interested in this thread because you guys all seem genuinely fond of each other and its great to see :thumbsup:

     

    What did you  use to discuss back in the day? What were the pertinent discussions, was it about gaming, social justice issues, politics..the reason I ask is I am fascinated by what was possibly one of the salient reasons for your kinship

     

    I love these people, even the ones I don't!!!

     

     

    I don't think I've ever told you this but you have to be one of the sweetest people I have ever had the pleasure of meeitng on the internet.

     

    You just made my day all the brighter. That has got to be among the best compliments I've ever had! *blows a kiss to Adam*

    All of the above! But in their proper forums for the most part. I must be honest and say that I tended to hang out in wwot 95% of the time, and TMC (toms music corner). Fun and games. LOL. We had your typical topics and questionaires... but we also had several inns and a psych ward (Dalla's psychward iirc) and some rps going on. We had our battles, but you're right, we ARE fond of each other. I think what it comes down to is we are family. Each and every one. I love these people, even the ones I don't!!!

     

    Someone else could probably tell you more about the other forums though.

  9. ...ya know, I's'd literally soil meself if'n Mystique showed up outta the blue... :blink:

     

     

    ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

    I always pictured Mystique as some little sulking kid sitting against a wall for some odd reason. As soon as you mentioned him that image popped into my head again.

  10. Yes, this is Kate.  

     

    It's been a stupid long time and a lot has happened, but I suppose the only thing that would be of much interest to y'all is that I've been married for moriveth for the past nine years and that s/he is as dementedly awe-inspiring as ever.

    Oh hey, I have something for you, if I can ever get it to working right. I'm going to try and post it this week. Might wanna check back... :yes:

    So I actually had to register here... been through too many boards, guess I didn't sign up for this one yet. :p

    Anyhow, I am around on facebook and irc sometimes. 

     

    It's weird as hell thinking I started talking to y'all like, 10 years ago. Makes me feel old and crotchety. 

    Geez the last time I talked to you was when you were still in China!

     

    So much changed when Missy closed down her boards. :(

     

     

    Weirdly, I can't actually remember what was going on around the time that the Lair closed. I've got a feeling that life was a little tricky for a while, and something had to give, I'm really sorry about that.

     

    Seeing so many familiar names now is awesome.

     

    It occurred to me, much too late, that I should've held those boards for you! I would have done it too, in a heartbeat if I had thought of it before the end.

     

    But you're here now, and more friends are showing up, and that's all good.

    Hello! I recognise some avatars and names in here! Not sure if anyone remember me, I'm racking my brains trying to remember what avatar I used to use over at BIS. I was also on ML for ages  :cat:

    Don't think us plebs would have had the privilege of custom avatars. Unfortunately my only pictorial evidence of the BIS forum just missed it, but it does quote your crimes for posterity.

     

    (For context, this was from the time the IPLY forums had already gone up and most of the BIS forums were already locked, we were probably only able to post in WOT or somesuch)

    EDIT: This was posted a year ago or so, the last time we had a old timey time nostalgia session. Specifically recalling the Lord Jim incident.

     

    P.S. Thought I saw Caelis on the Whirlpool forums a couple years ago, but I may have been imagining things.

     

    Ok crikey! *cringe*

     

    You skanky harlot!

    I remember you sweetie! From both places.

     

    And that's gotta be Kate right? Where have you been?

     

    Hiro, what member list? I wanna see it.

  15. Hey Tess and Missy! Yay! Not sure who Synaesthesia is/was at bis, but don't mind me, I'm sure I don't recall even half the old gang.

     

    I'm getting excited, and finding some of the old stuff I saved onto cd's from the blackisle days to post at the reunion. If anyone else has stuff saved back maybe they can dig it out to share. I have the last postcounts... since I inherited the job from Sir Bully not too long before the boards closed down, and a bit from the RLD. Plus we have an artist among us whose work I have kept over the years. I'll share that too.

  16. In non-alocholic news, today I was craving a mezzo mix which isn't sold around here so I had to get a coke and orange fanta and mix my own

     

    And now to our top story, I also had somewhere between 3 and  mint juleps because I'm trying to use up all the mint I bought before it goes bad

     

    Are those any good? I've never had one. Guess I'm not a big mint fan but I don't hate it.

     

    One of the things we do with our best friends is our own beer tasting. When they visit us they'll bring along a bottle of 4 different beers none of us have tried. They're concealed in paper bags, we'll choose one, divide it up and 'test' it. We do the same when we go over to their house. We've got a huge list of all the beers we've tried and our individual ratings. Now I'm not really a big beer drinker but I've found I love the Iron horse brewery beers!

     

    I also recently discovered Aspall's draft cyder. And I do love ciders!!

  17. I have a feeling that there will be non-bis folk showing up. I think we call them 'guests'. And we treat guests pretty good.

     

    Btw, I think your sigs are awesome. Especially like the last one.

     

    Humanoid, all old blackislers tickets are guaranteed.

  18. It should be fun. I only know where a few of the old members are. And since I don't do facebook we'd need someone willing to help spread the word there. As time goes on, or as interest dictates, we'll be able to add more details. Right now it is just a hope. A good hope!

     

    Of course we really do need to use our old names as well.

     

    Tigranes, I remember roshan. If he's the same guy that hung out at bis.
