This board has been around for a couple years now.

I think its about time us long-time members gather around the fireplace, bask in its warm glowing warming glow, and reminese[sic] in a segment of interference I like to call........
.
.
remember when... (can't you just feel the warm glow?)

Remember when those trolls came here and completely trashed the place? and we tried to fight back but we sucked?

I remember that.

Remember the days when we spent much time in debate over the title of the upcoming album, deciding that out of the list of "rumours" the title "All That You Can't Leave Behind" couldn't be it, because since when had a U2 album had a title longer than 2 or 3 words?
 
Remeber when the band released two 30 second clips of songs but one of us found ALL the clips online? and then we all sat around debating..."do we risk our virgin ears or spoil the fun now?"
 
Remember when there was an interference "revolution"? Lots of cryptic posts from BEAL and company, a new mod named "Tonya McLoad" or something (Diemen was the one who said, it's an anagram of Adam's name from the Passengers album)...weird stuff. People got so mad and threatened to leave the board. One person started their own "new" board even. That's also about the time we got the MacPhisto emoticon.

Remember Gen-Tree?

Remember interferencers trolling the Foo Fighters board?

Remember KevM's voting program?

That's all for now.

Do ya'll remember that funny old farmer, who used to post every once in a while named Halpick Neftin?

Hey asstrap!
watch your mouth, young man, being part of that group served me well. I should dig up my song parody I wrote about us.
biggrin.gif


I mostly remember people trying to deflower us.

I also remember the Interf Disco thread. Bonovista and I were throwing mirrorballs at Dr Teeth And MIB if I remember correctly.
 
Cheers basstrap, a fire, good idea. It's getting cold here...or my idea of cold.

I just remember lots of anticipation and lots of laughter. People have come and gone, but that has remained the same.
And yes, ease up on the virgins there mate. It was well worth the wait!! (although I did listen to Ground Beneath Her Feet....but I don't think that counted)

All your base are belong to us - hak hak hak hak!

I remember I posted an angry thread about men and pubs, and it became a civilized and polite battle of the sexes.

I remember when I thought Marriage Was Dead.

I remember when the 'Babyface' status was 'The Fool'.

I remember when there was actually another Malaysian on this board.
