BIS Boards Reunion Tour


Recommended Posts

Well I am, but I was as boring in 2002 as I am now, so there's not much difference. :p

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

Haha, those were the days.  Inns and brothels as far as the mouse could scroll.

 

And board based RPGs. :)

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

Oh God, no you weren't! Plus, you were one of the few brave souls that actually participated in Ace's brothel. That wasn't boring!

What was Aces brothel, do tell ?

The first rule of Ace's brothel is that you don't talk about Ace's brothel. :p

 

Seriously it was called the Red Light District IIRC?  Acted like a some of the other Inn threads, with Ace and GM as the hosts.

Well, lol, it all started out with Ace, Amentep, and moriveth adopting girl avatars and became "working girls". Eventually a few others joined, me included. Had some ridiculous shenanigans going on. Lots of opposition from some of the bis members, but Overseer allowed it.

 

I still have some of the thread on file. LC saved as much as he could before BIS closed its doors for good.

Yeah, he subtitled it "Beer, women and song... what could be better" Crazy goof.

Better times to be honest. Over at Winterwind (with Gorth now posting there every now and then) we had a fun recollection going as well, about the time - already on the Interplay boards - we had a little issue with the Fallout forums (bad enough to make Interplay want to axe them... or much more) and after a some back and forth posters accused the moderators of being nazis. You know, like Volo alwas does, except in all seriousness.

 

Which lead to the moderator team adopting high ranking nazi officials as avatars and having "Forum Nazi" as forum title.

 

Try that stuff today the mod team would probably demoted over night and the community manager fired. :w00t:

Hows Ace and Preacher, GM and Tess?

Ace is doing good. Works a lot. Likes to spend his free time brewing beer or working on his truck. We take a lot road trips on the weekends. Always fun to do, checking out cool places.

Exactly! I found some of the pages, and truthfully, I highly doubt the contents within would be acceptable here. I wouldn't know how to post any of it even if it were allowable.

I was only a lurker on the old BIS boards and quite frankly only remember Gromnir from back then. But it's still nice to see this old community of friends coming back and checking up on eachother. I'm experiencing the same thing on another board. It's heart warming.
