June 6, 201411 yr ...so sometime this fall/winter, GM & I's gonna try ta arrange a bit o' a "reuinon" fer the ol' BIS boards o'er at the Redux ( http://s6.zetaboards.com/MistressLair_Redux/index/ )...details be a bit lite right now as we speaks, but I's'll update as we goes...any ol' Islander that be interested, come on down an' if ya stays in touch wit' any other ol' Islander, invite 'em as well...I's'll keep this thread as updated as I can...so c'mon, lads & lasses; help us's git the Band back together... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!... A long, long time ago, but I can still remember, How the Trolling used to make me smile. And I knew 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 Klown; Volo and Turnip were banned, Mystake got run out o' town. Bad news on the Front Page, BIOweenia said goodbye in a heated rage. I can't remember if I cried When I heard that TORN was recently fried, But sadness touched me deep inside, The day...Black Isle died. For tarna, Visc, an' the rest o' the ol' Islanders that fell along the way
June 6, 201411 yr Whoa, the Lair is alive? I was too young for the actual BISboards, DAC/NMA, etc. I mainly lurked in that dinosaur age, when Sol Invictus and roshan roamed the land.

June 7, 201411 yr 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.
June 7, 201411 yr Do you have to be a real ex-member of BIS or can you pretend to be one to partake in the reunion?

June 7, 201411 yr 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.

June 7, 201411 yr Its been so long I don't even remember half the people from back then that didn't migrate here. Edited June 7, 201411 yr by Oerwinde The area between the balls and the butt is a hotbed of terrorist activity.
June 7, 201411 yr Its been so long I don't even remember half the people from back then that didn't migrate here. I can only dream of remembering a tenth or so, let alone anything much besides names - damn you memory^^ Citizen of a country with a racist, hypocritical majority
June 10, 201411 yr Who am I? What am I doing here? I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
June 12, 201411 yr Author ...found me ol' original BIS avvie...feels better already, I does... ...WHO LUVS YA, BABY!!...

June 12, 201411 yr That forum's as dead as disco, Sarge. I guess that makes it appropriate, at least. Dirty deeds done cheap.

June 15, 201411 yr Oh lordy, it's been so long since I logged in to this account that I had to send a reset password request to my Hotmail account.
June 16, 201411 yr 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.
June 16, 201411 yr 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 was "Jiles" on the BIS boards and Jolyon on IPLY and Mistress' Lair.
June 16, 201411 yr I especially remember Jiles having Angelina Jolie's body. Hmm.... L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
June 16, 201411 yr I especially remember Jiles having Angelina Jolie's body. Hmm.... That's correct. I had to give it back to her after the sight of her disembodied head started freaking Brad out.
June 16, 201411 yr It is slightly concerning that my first thought after reading that is "What does Brad the Ginger Cat have to do with that?" instead of the obvious joke. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
