The State of VBForums

[KiwiDexter]

There really are some old faces crawling out of the woodwork aren't there? What we need now are some Extractor Fan jokes.

Pfft when you have posters that can recall John and James, Mrs LePont, Jesus4U, and the rampaging Katie then you're talking old faces.

Has the database been cleared of old threads? Trying to find one a member named BeachBum raised in here back in the dim dark ages when dinosaurs and C++ walked the earth

HI KLEGG! Missed you

<3 always

[moonman239]

Lol, that's nothing....This guy is pre-historic. His join date isn't even in this century!

He cannot be pre-historic, as being pre-historic would imply that he was not part of history and therefore did not exist back then. Obviously, he existed back then; therefore, he is not pre-historic, but in fact part of history.

Here is my work:

You work at UCLA, right? If I ever visit that place, I'll be sure to call 911 at night, just so we can have a nice chat.

Actually pre-historic means "before written history".

Comes to show ironically that VB is so easy a caveman can do it

I was more active in CC than anywhere else though, and this is what I miss the most. Seeing the posts from Wossname that can make you wet yourself, kregg and his drama, maxilimianhofmeyr (or something like that, can never remember his name) with his ridiculous puns and general way of speaking... I think I joined just after the big crash so I can't really comment on that.

Those were good times...

Kind words summoned me back from the wilderness of obscure soldering and firmware hacking. I remember when I was a software nerd. VBF was awesome back then.

Mendhak, Bodwad, NoteMe, ElectroMan, TomGibbons, Emil, TS, .... the list goes on. Billgeek was definitely a major contributor when I was active here

I learned VB6 (1999) and C# (2003 onwards) on VBF. Had it not been for VBForums.com I'd have made nothing of my life by now. Oh wait.

It amuses me greatly that VBF still has the Doomsharp forum. Now that was a fun project.

[wossname]

Rhythm is the key as we open up the door.

And still I'm not paying more.

Spoonguard!!!

Yes folks, VBForums was on the forefront of trolling probably 3 years before the rest of the world.

[Atheist]

You are all sponges in my book.

Very cool thread: http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.p...e-Screen-Shots

[wossname]

Not heard from Note in a while. Hope he's doing OK. Let me know if you manage to get in touch with him.

[Shaggy Hiker]

He showed up just recently over in some other thread started by Peet.

[Jacob Roman]

I still say we should kidnap NoteMe

[Shaggy Hiker]

To what end? There would be so many alternatives.

[Jacob Roman]

Torcher and waterboarding? Chains and whips? Ok im getting weird here

[Shaggy Hiker]

Keep going, you'll probably find that he's already there.

[Jacob Roman]

Wait that wasnt him blowing people up in Boston was it? Why Boston? Might as well be Idaho.

[wossname]

You actually need help.

[Spoo]

Wow, it's Klegg.

OK ,, all we need now is Compo and Foggy, and we'll have the A-Team.

[dclamp]

I work at a (an?) University, but not UCLA. MUAH HAHAHA Good luck finding me.

[szlamany]

University - starts with kind of a Y-sound - like "young" - so it's "a university"

That is what I figured. I don't remember learning that in school... Always went with what sounded correct.

[Jacob Roman]

Itll give us a good reason to waterboard him

I want that picture in a frame. I think that thread has actually encouraged me into getting into my career as a consultant in embedded linux, as well as other things.

You are all sponges in my book.

And I never want to be anything more. <3333

[Jacob Roman]

I love you guys. /grouphug

Wheres the beer in this reunion though?

[wossname]

Oh god, I've created... a MONSTER!!!

Amusingly enough, I've still got the hardware from that project.

[kregg]

Oh god, I've created... a MONSTER!!!

You heard it here folks, wossname is actually Victor Frankenstein. News at 10.

That reminds me of the time I tried cheese making. I was trying to get a particularly sharp cheddar, as those are pretty interesting. Things were going pretty well up until the time I tried it out for the first time. My first indication that something was wrong when the knife cut it way too easily, and way too messily. In fact, the cheese was kind of soft and creamy. The taste was anything but sharp, too. In fact, it was quite mild and a bit sweet. In horror, I exclaimed, "Oh God, I've created...a meunster!!!"

You have to wonder if that's the most common expression uttered by new fathers upon seeing their children in a certain town in Germany, too.

I beleive it is:

I demandth cheese!!!

[Shaggy Hiker]

What? My post wasn't cheesy enough?

[Niya]

Falsch!
Das kann niemals mein Baby sein!


BTW the town is called Münster (using your keyboard Muenster)

[Jacob Roman]

Do you think _God_ is watching over us?

[opus]

Given his postcount, he can watch, but if he wants to post/say something he needs an admin to aproof

[FunkyDexter]

God answers to Brad

[Jacob Roman]

Unless Brad is like Jesus, then that would make Brad God.

[_God_]

I Am God. Brad Jones answers only to me.
