While doing some research for the "What does Dola mean?" thread I had to go back to the old board. It was amazing how things look remarkably the same over there, nearly three years later. For instance...

I'm here too ...
Sorry for going on a rant earlier ...

... and I hope I can be a positive part of this wonderful community.

Looks like mrskippy was promising to be a good boy even way back then...

Sammy Smith Nut Brown Ale isn't half bad, either. I find my tastes linger in the realm of the Ale. I do enjoy a good hefeweizen, however. Mostly, I enjoy the dance that couples itself with the consumpion of a hefeweizen.
But, when I discover the Newcastle lager, I will make it known to the free world as well as the troubled districts plagued by the sinister efforts of a tainted government. Which is the whole world, I guess.

Tobias was a nutcase even back then...

One of the other common practices of Dola-posting is using the forum as a chat board. This is common in game forums where you have a community of jr and sr high schoolers. Here's an example you might find in many, many places:
Post 1: Howzit? (or whaaasup?)
Post 2: not much
Post 3: skool SUCKD 2day
Post 4: musta hurt
Post 5: he he
Post 6: :0
Post 7: (_._)
Post 8: he he that was keeewl
Post 9: Kid Rock RuLeZ!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post 10: KID SUUUUUUK
Post 11: HE ROCKS
Post 12: DuDeZ KICKS A$$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Post 13..... (and on and on and on)

In some forums (game forums mind you), I've seen members having 1000+ posts PER MONTH, all chatting gibberish like this.

Bucc/Anrhy was still raging against the "kewl doodz"...

I am here, but if you think I will ever get back the number of posts I put in your crazy. If you don't pump me up to where I should be, I will send an IRS agent to every moderator in this forum.
Senator was still threatening posters with his government goons (though I think Homeland Security scares me more than the IRS. I don't want to go to Camp X-Ray)...



Can you guys think of any more legends and lores?

And HM was a joke way back then (though I guess he was actually a joke dating back to his first appearance)...


Sigh...such good memories from the old board.... :)

Actually, I think I was at about 2.35 or so before we made the big move. I'm not sure what made me so much more active after the move, but I certainly am. Oh well... :)

BillyMadison would say it's because you have no social life and a job that would allow you to be on the internet for long periods of time every day, such as a truck driver. :confused:

Don't forget this classic thread (to me it is).

Rex Is Done w/TCY.. any takers? (http://dynamic2.gamespy.com/~fof/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=1&t=006110)

Also known as the thread where I learned that if you don't like TCY, you're a kewl d00d.
