Syraxis Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Oh ****, they're closing... Well, that's the end of an era. A few million dead web pages with it.

Kaftan Barlast Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 jason Scott to the rescue http://ascii.textfiles.com/archives/1961 DISCLAIMER: Do not take what I write seriously unless it is clearly and in no uncertain terms, declared by me to be meant in a serious and non-humoristic manner. If there is no clear indication, asume the post is written in jest. This notification is meant very seriously and its purpouse is to avoid misunderstandings and the consequences thereof. Furthermore; I can not be held accountable for anything I write on these forums since the idea of taking serious responsability for my unserious actions, is an oxymoron in itself. Important: as the following sentence contains many naughty words I warn you not to read it under any circumstances; botty, knickers, wee, erogenous zone, psychiatrist, clitoris, stockings, bosom, poetry reading, dentist, fellatio and the department of agriculture. "I suppose outright stupidity and complete lack of taste could also be considered points of view. "
alanschu Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Hahahaha I love all the haphazard HTML code.
Purkake Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Hahahaha I love all the haphazard HTML code. If you really miss any of the Geocities sites, you could always go and look at them at the Internet Archive
alanschu Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Yes I'm aware that's the joke. They nailed it perfectly.
CoM_Solaufein Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 They can't close it, its part of internet history. Back in its heyday it was good until Yahoo got their hands on it.

alanschu Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Meh, after some time (long before Yahoo bought it) I quickly realized that any link that went to Geocities is probably not going to have the information that I was hoping for on it.
Walsingham Posted October 26, 2009 Posted October 26, 2009 Meh, after some time (long before Yahoo bought it) I quickly realized that any link that went to Geocities is probably not going to have the information that I was hoping for on it. You have to admit this is true, Lucian. It's was always "oh, I wonder what the comedy geocities link will be?" I just realised I'm old enough to remember the old internet. Christ even teh fact that there is an old internet is worrying. Except naturally I remember it being weird and badly designed with hald as many animated adverts. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.
