Remember the time....

**Sastraxi** · May 20th, 2001, 11:20 PM

1. When kedaman & megatron only had 1000 posts to their names?
2. When Matthew Gates was still an addicted member?
3. When that person made a speech on how VB sucked... in the VB forum?
4. When there were about 300 members? (an educated guess)

This was April 2000.
Now compare it to today...

Scary isn't it?

**parksie** · May 21st, 2001, 11:58 AM

Very scary...although I wasn't around then so it was pretty good

**chrisjk** · May 21st, 2001, 02:01 PM

I joined when VBW was only a few months old, and there were already more like 3000 members than 300

**barrk** · May 21st, 2001, 02:36 PM

Nope...I don't remember because I wasn't around but how would you compare it to now?

**parksie** · May 21st, 2001, 02:38 PM

Well, I'd never seen a server busy message, it was a nukem-free zone, and all was right with the world.

The DCB forum was active, and I remember when Megatron and Kedaman became Gurus *thinks back wistfully*

Do you get that out of focus haze all around and twilight zone music when that happens?

**chrisjk** · May 21st, 2001, 02:43 PM

Yeah, and you find yourself in a lift with loads of strange people. Oh, hang on, that was the Twigilet Zone.

No, it does that whenever I think about working

It's really weird, but why the hell does the past always look better than the future?

Anyone remember the time we had Avatars?

I noticed that a while ago...I thought they just didnt load?

It must have somit to do with John taking the server down.

**chrisjk** · May 21st, 2001, 02:51 PM

He turned off the avatars and the seach for a while to help with the old server load.

**HarryW** · May 21st, 2001, 02:53 PM

Because you're born, then it's all downhill from there.

**HarryW** · May 21st, 2001, 02:54 PM

Blinking server busy messages. That was meant to be in response to Parksie's post.

**parksie** · May 21st, 2001, 02:56 PM

OK no prob

Remember the time....

...I knew a girl from mars
I don't know if you knew that
Oh we'd stay up late playing cards, henry-winterman cigars
Though she never told me her name
I still love you girl from mars
Sitting in a dreamy day by the water's edge
On a cool summer's night
Fireflies and stars in the sky
Gentle glowing light, from your cigarette
The breeze blowing softly on my face
Reminds me of something else
Something that in my mem'ry 's been misplaced
Suddenly all comes back, and as I look to the stars

**HarryW** · May 21st, 2001, 03:14 PM

Now that's a classy song.
