I've Been on Interference So Long...

[Kieran McConville]

I've been on interference, correction, I've been lurking on interference, so long that my saliva tastes like toilet cakes. Blue ones.

Who you calling old?

You, old mate.

Also, if I'm not grossly mistaken, you're enough of a geezer that your screen name could no longer be registered even if it weren't taken, but you and some others were grandfathered in.

i... i have no response to that.

 

[Alisaura]

If I recall Alisaura's explanation correctly, Interference had a forum in the late nineties but there was some sort of forum upgrade or website crash in 2000, after which everybody's old registration dates disappeared. Hence, nobody has a pre-2000 registration date. Any other old timers recall this?

This is true (and yes I am old). I've been on so long that I remember The Great Server Crash of 2000, and the great wave of angst and woe that followed when the (relatively) old hands back then lost their reg dates and post counts.

I actually can't remember when I first registered, but it was 1999 at least. This was my first internet forum and I was pretty active, since I was at uni and discovering the internet and its endless opportunities for procrastination.

yea i definitely remember discovering interference my freshman year of college, which was 1998.

Too many characters. I know the same applies to hiphop's full screen name.

 

[Hewson]

Too many characters. .

This place has plenty of characters, one more wouldn't hurt.

Wonder what the character limit is.
I'm going to guess 20, and as you have 22, henceforth ye shall be known as Headache in a Suitca.

Oh, right, I remember now.

Unrelated: why won't the app let you write in all caps, if you write a post in all caps it changes it all down to lower case

 

[DaveC]

pretty sure that was done to tone down the posts made by those people who seem to have no concept of what the caps lock key does.

 

[Axver]

That's why some of us write clf, for caps lock filter, at the bottom of all caps posts. But if your post has an I, use a lower case L and you will also pass the filter.

And I'm glad I'm not the only person thinking of THRILLHO.

***song is Ammunition by All Good Children.
