"Tifa Lockheart" is still a meme between me and one of my friends. I don't remember the goon who posted that though.

Phy posted:The guy who does Kill Six Billion Demons posts in BSS occasionally. Not very often, but I can't blame him because between doing the comic, and all the extra work involved in getting the print editions published, and also his two or three RPGs, I'm surprised he's not on an iv drip so he doesn't have to take food breaks The guy who made Homestuck used to have an account here but after FYAD changed a female poster's av to text calling her a "pissy pussy idiot bitch" as part of that short time when they were given power to train people to FYAD and give them avatars his girlfriend posted that they weren't going to be posting as long as that was allowed so the mod banned them with a "heh, guess you won't be needing this account anymore then " parting shot.

This isn't really a saga but idk where else to ask. What's up with all those accounts named after baseball players that have the player's cards as their avatars (Bip Roberts, Paul Zuvella, etc.)? Was that a name change thread thing in SAS or just a group a reregs who had a goofy idea? I never read SAS FWIW.

verbal enema posted:could you change the regdate to BC or nah Real answer, the earliest would be Jan 1, 1970 because of the way it's stored. (You might see somebody with a Dec 31, 1969 regdate if you're west of GMT).

CannonFodder posted:Besides, the forums would break in some other method where people could be assigned a BC reg date but get forums cancer or coupons only. It's just the way computer systems work. Time is counted in seconds since Jan 1 1970 on Unix systems. That's why there's a year 2038 problem on 32 bit systems. You run out of bits to store the time. Actually maybe the forums could take a negative number? Go all the way back to 1901? Who knows.
