Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:I believe that was the earliest form of banning in the old old days, before the forums store and long before the leper's colony. I thought you could get your account back but you got a new regdate? Maybe they didn't rereg. Not sure, I wasn't posting here then. In addition to that though, I know there was the migration from UBB to vBulletin, and there must have been some database corruption in 2002, because stuff before then is spotty, like the two links people were trying to retrieve before, and the 9/11 thread.

If someone bought the 9/11 regdate option back when it was in the store, would they still have it now or did it disappear when it was taken off the store?

I think I've still seen a few around. It's a purchased date only, as per the lore back then, registration approval was manual and none were done that day. https://forums.somethingawful.com/dictionary.php?act=3&topicid=247

look, just because american express offered $50 back if you spent $100 on Goldbelly, that does NOT mean anyone used it the maximum 3x, no way

Zil posted:So Jeff and astral figured out what the strange slowness of the site was being caused by. yeah, what i've read about the front page articles, it was a pain in the rear end to make even the low effort photoshop phridays articles with no text, and often you had to make the article a few times because the poo poo would crash and eat everything you had made

Didn't that framework also give us the amazing incident earlier in this year where some dogshit article went up on the front page during the interregnum, and it turned out that it was a lovely draft from the early 2000's that the author was trying to delete and ended up just pushing to autopost in 2021, since that was as close as he could get to throwing it out?

I'm pretty sure it was intended to be published, it's just that the date for publishing was entered incorrectly.

My favorite one was the guy who ended his j4g with victory to the mahi mahi He literally first posted in the game specifc thread relatively chill but said he was new and everyone immediately asked if he had introduced himself with a gbs thread and then got really serious and told him to do it right away before he got in trouble.

shelley posted:no one asked but here’s the HondaRider post where he told sunburnt_aphid to try LSD One part of the HondaRider saga that gets skipped over was that at least some of the admins at the time were ready to bury it and ride out the storm, but it got too much attention from FYAD mocking it that they were kind of forced to take action. Someone copied over quotes of the PMs Hondarider leaked into the FYAD thread mocking the whole thing and HondaRider also mentions it in his little meltdown post in the old mod feedback thread. Here's the start of that discussion and it's pretty dismissive of the whole thing up until the admins decided to demod him. Anyway, looking back at those posts from her, I really hope she got medical help and didn't end up dead somewhere because jesus christ. This post really says it all: Triticum Guzzler posted:Hello. I am a seasoned troll, but I googled "suboxone seattle" for you because you are going to die. You are slowly killing yourself and leaving a grim record of it on an internet message board populated by people who come here solely to replace the void that no longer being able to watch their comparitively wealthier neighbour play Super Mario has left. I came upon this thread and people seem to speak very highly of the place! You should check it out, because I learned TCC is about responsibility and harm reduction, and a good way to reduce harm, to yourself, would be to stay alive and not dead. I hope you click that link and that it helps, because I would like it if I could, in some small way, help you to not kill yourself. Nuns with Guns has a new favorite as of 21:31 on May 7, 2021 |

Rust Martialis posted:It sounded pretty *bad* even by TCC standards, but I like hope too TCC Standards Watched a "friend" of mine host a crack party with his 2 year old upstairs quote:It's a 2 year old kid. She was probably asleep, and she wouldn't understand what was going on if she saw it. What danger is she in that she isn't in when her parents are sober? I think you might be overreacting a bit. Like you said, they seemed like a functional bunch. quote:Umm no he could have had a family member take care of it for the duration of the party. He could have hired a babysitter. Just because you have a kid doesn't mean you have to stop smoking crack, you just have to be more responsible about it. Thankfully that was a tiny minority of posters quote:Please call child services. No kid deserves a crackhead for a dad.

Len posted:Last time she came up someone said she wasn't and they could confirm that but didn't provide receipts I cannot provide receipts, but I have seen a post from her after the event. She basically goes silent for like a year after the LSD thing, pops back up for a couple posts, and vanishes again. The posts she made made it sound like she got help BUT didn't get better, just managed to not die. So she is less likely the be dead than the LSD story makes her out to be, but not much less
