I wondered where they went. Thanks for this...perhaps I'll swing by and say hello. :)

And, speaking of the old days, remember these folks: Behemoth, beachbum, Wally Pipp

Oh yes, I remembered beachbum, but forgot the others you have mentioned, Hack.

It feels almost like family.








An insane one.

Yeah, but everybody needs to have a crazy uncle in their family.

Its the law! :D

And again for several years after registering.

I still talk to TomGibbons on MSN sometimes. He says you're all losers.

Then that number is added to your good cholesterol count, subtracted by your bad cholesterol count and multiplied by the square root of total numbers of years of higher education that you have completed.

By then it has completely lost track of what it is doing and just gives the member a positive rep of 2 points.

And now you know the rest of the story.

meh. You say it too

Yea... while we were all busy making quip remarks to each other... some kid came up with the idea of a social networking site where he and his friends could keep track of each other and just by the luck of the gods - made millions in the process.

Not that I'm bitter or anything... I mean I always have my chit chat memories. I'm a little bitter.

Yeah, if we had a "like button" instead of a rating button, we'd all be rich...

Chenko.... Anyone mentioned him?

.

Wut? :D

I once had a history of being banned frequently. :bigyello:

without NoteMe, Mendhak and Wossname, vbforums is not the way it used to be

Nope, and I also feel Im the only game expert in these forums =/

If I post a game related question it rarely ever gets answered.
