Space Stations II

Joe Siegler · 04-20-1999, 02:48 PM

Was looking around my HD today at some hardly used directories, and look what I found!

04-20-1999, 03:16 PM

Now I know!!!!!!!!!!!

Heh, that was back in the day when we used '>>...<<' for quotes.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>eh, that was back in the day when we used '>>...<<' for quotes. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

That was also when the UBB software was free, too.

Had more limitations, and I killed threads that were that long, because each page view was created dynamically by the CGI script, not just stored on an HTML page like they are now.

The quote function wasn't there then either.

Whoah! That was before my time... I can see some weird names in that thread. It looks as though guest69 had fun at the end...

I like the way the boards are now... I would've never joined if it wasn't so good. It'll bring back memories for the people with the familiar names that I saw there.

That is really old, almost 9 months before my time.

Doppleganger · 04-20-1999, 05:09 PM

I was here during all that madness, but I decided not to take part in it

Uncle Duke · 04-20-1999, 05:45 PM

Wow . . . a mere two months before my time . . . how strange . . . I seem to remember posting something in the topic, and then it disappeared? I musta' seen a "re-incarnation."

On another note: Yes! Direct quote FAQ fodder!

Joe do you have any more old threads? Just curious..

Ah, the infamous Space Station thread. I think that was even before I was here. Maybe even before Aurora51...

Of course these days we know that as a fact and don't even need to ask.

i remember those days, i came in and I could expect to hear the same things, but i was never a member

BADGER · 04-20-1999, 07:20 PM

Man, I was such an idiot, loser, arsehole back then. It's a good thing I changed...I changed right?

That's just great.

HA! In the past couple months, I can recall twice being accused of being the one responsible for the SS thread, and now I have proof of my innocence.

04-20-1999, 09:26 PM

So that's what my old name was back then! When I came back I couldn't remember my old name so I made this one.

100th post. Cool.

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Joe do you have any more old threads?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Yeah, I do, but most of them are stupid things like people pretending to be various employees of other gaming companies, warez stuff, nothing quite like this, although I'll take a look.

Hey, 3 things from that thread:

1) I was a little too "cheery" back then.. heh
2) I got the 1000th post on the duke forum

3) I got the last post on the thread! 141st post.. YAY!

04-20-1999, 10:28 PM

I remember someone tried to pretend he was Tim Sweeney of Epic, or something. I think he (the impersonator) insulted DNF, dunno for sure.

But nodody believed him, thank god.

TerminX · 04-20-1999, 11:08 PM

Joe do you still have that thread that got me kicked off? Hehe I still have the email about it

-TerminX

04-21-1999, 07:13 AM

TerminX.. how did you get those old profile-things you sent to me yesterday?

Draco · 04-21-1999, 09:26 AM

Dee-am!

Who is Lokes and KillBurn and who is FooFighter and BADGER?

Just kiddin. But I knew it - the hype of the Space Stations thread made the real thing not as great. Great nonetheless, but not as good.

I'm saving it, though...

Needless to say this was a good topic at first, but then the Space Station posts got alittle crazy and we just posted to get it the highest post poll in the forum.

I renamed this thread to Space Stations II, since it's technically a continuance of the old thread from the old server.

Wow, look at those screen names.

Seeing my nick in the SS thread makes me feel special for being one of the few people still here who was around when the SS thread was started...

Z · 08-22-1999, 10:15 AM

I remember that one... But as always I never said anything...

I remember also people that I don't think is here anymore (or are invisible to me, dunno), like slayback and SirWinner... wonder if their profiles still exist. Joe?

Z...

Makes you wish you had said something, now that it's being brought up almost a year and a half later, doesn't it

. I think slaybak left for good awhile ago. SirWinner still posts here (usually just in the Software Forum) like once a month. Must be pretty busy.
