Old Black Isle board


kirottu

Recommended Posts

A long, long time ago, but I can still remember,

How the Trolling used to make me smile.

And I knew that if I had my chance,

I could egg on a few Trolls to "dance",

And maybe we'd be happy for a while.

But then Krackhead left and so did Grommy;

Vo and Turnip were banned; and Josh ran home to Mommy;

Bad news on the Front Page;

BIO said goodbye in a heated Rage.

I can't remember if I cried

When I heard that TORN had recently died.

But sadness touched me deep inside,

The Day...the WWOT died.

 

 

...so...

 

Au Revoir, amore; BIS Message Board;

You went away to Interplay becuz the company's poor;

And that God-damned place was such a pathetic bore;

The Regs didn't even go there no more;

An' finally Herve had ta bar-down the door!

 

 

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

Aye, Sarfy...aye.

"Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger."

It's too bad there isn't an archive for the old BIS boards, where we could read over some of the crazy stuff we did in wwot. I still have a lot of the RLD, and that's because LC was able to retrieve most of it before the boards were totally gone.

I remember deleting spam.

 

And deleting thread links to content not allowed on the boards.

 

And the guy who thought it was funny to spam 5 or 6 BISIMGs in every thread over a weekend when no one was around who could ban him.

 

I remember the guy who learned why you don't hotlink to pictures from some websites.

 

And I remember the weekend the Interplay forums burned after FO:BOS was announced.

I remember all the alternate accounts. I even had 2 besides GM that only a couple members knew about.

 

I think I had 4... :cat:

Yeah it was a bit tricky trying to 'be that other person' lol! I even forgot to log out of one account once and it wasn't until after I made a post as GM that I realized the mistake and quickly had to edit. Oh so close...

...hehehe...ne'er quite ran inta that situation; both times I's used an alt 'twas when I was tryin' ta "retire" the Wemic...jus' couldna do it, though; unfortunately fer most who's known me on the Boards (these ones, Missy's, an' 'specially on the Isle), I's gotta be me, it's half the fun o' it... :sorcerer:

I don't think I ever had that problem.

 

But then having to switch in and out to mod probably helped make me more aware of changing accounts.

Metadigital was fired as a moderator and quit the forums forever (probably under an alt now), Hades was one of Visceris's many alts - he's currently Killian something, Eldar still pops round occasionally, dunno about Endar.

 

 

If Meta was under an alt he's doing a killer job of changing his posting style.

Just popped in to say Hi to any old 'Fuzzies', 'specially Gina, Sargy, 'Tess, Preacher, Buli and Missy, and if anybody sees Amir...his camel's still blockin' the car park.

 

Can't believe my spam record only got me to number 61, I was neck and neck with 'Tess before I left.

I started off with nothin', and I still got most of it left

Turnip gone, Volourn vanished

Josh resigned, Mystique was banished.

No one left ter face 'is wit

thank god fer that, 'is wit was s**t

 

In mixed memory of a true Forum-Troll. ~ Strider23

Sargy, how the hell are you ? :( Mighta known you'd be one o' the old crowd still 'smokin' in the Smokin' section'. I missed yer acerbic wit and insightful comments...nah, wait, that was Mystique. See Volourns' still around (he still Canadian or did they find a cure?). Grommy still pinin' for a dual-wieldin' Ranger? Anonymous Man come up with a name yet? God's it seems like yesterday...if yesterday was a reeeallly long time ago.

 

Long time indeed old son.....reckon I'll give up doing this **** when I grow up.

...hehehe...methinks 'twas Krackhead sore 'bout improper DWin', not Grommy; he's jus' sore 'bout Life...ain't seen A Mysterious Man in a looooooong time, more's the pity...nor Mystake, fer that matter; methinks he jus' dropped inta a looney bin somewhere's o'er in Europe an' decided ta set up shop there...as fer Volo, dunno; me an' the gully dwarf ain't "chatted" in some time...shyte jus' passes us by now, lad... :lol:
