The Board is hummin'
 
No, the board isn't in violation of any law in the Carolinas but we are setting records for numbers here. 36 I last checked.

Go us

FishFan 02-05-2001 03:45 PM

We rock...

Of course, this is the only forum you can find that has little to none football discussion.

TheRoyalOne 02-05-2001 03:47 PM

Actually we talk about international football more than American football, so it fits

Ksyrup 02-05-2001 03:51 PM

The way I look at all of the off-topic posting is, this is like the discussion boards of many of my favorite rock bands between album releases/tours. There's not much going on, so until something happens, people will talk about other things that interest them.

Wait until TCY is released or a release date is known. We'll have plenty of topical discussion (assuming you count TCY/FOF as one topic!).

Blackadar 02-05-2001 06:44 PM

The board has always been this way. It just sort of developed its own personality and ended up sort of like a permanent chat room.

OldSchool 02-05-2001 07:29 PM

Again, I must ask, what will the board be called when TCY comes out? FOFCentral would seem sort of incorrect since TCY won't be allowed to have the FOF name...

TheRoyalOne 02-05-2001 07:36 PM

Two suggestions:

The Most descriptive: Off Topic Central

The one that handles the role the best: Jim Gindin Central

We can't call it Solesmic Central since that company is now defunct.

Nothing is worse than going to the clubs on a saturday night and having to deal with drunk frat boys! (no offense to you frat people out there).

i bet jason tobias could come up with a good name for it.

Blackadar 02-06-2001 05:31 AM

Tone, what about a "name the board" contest? It'd be a good time to give away some of those SportPlanet freebies...

Tony 02-06-2001 01:16 PM

Good idea. Maybe we can wrap some other upcoming site decisions into the contest. I have TONS of games sitting around here -- not much text, but hell... In fact, Sega even sent over Phantasy Star Online yesterday. Funny considering I have NOTHING to do with that game and getting them to send NFL 2K1 for review was like pulling teeth. It's no wonder to me why that system failed. Marketing has no clue. (OT?)

I'm thinking we have to decide where this site goes next, what new forums get setup (TextSims.com), etc... lemme think.

'mckerney's kingdom' or something like that would be a good name for the board. Could also go with 'CarnDawg and his Worshipers' or something like that. Maybe even 'WigWorld'.


Though if we wanted to increase site traffic, we could always go with the simple name of 'Free Porn'.

something useful

cartman 02-18-2007 07:18 PM

Goin' old school.

Even six years later, the more things change, the more they remain the same.

what an odd bump

Fidatelo 02-18-2007 09:33 PM

Who is TheRoyalOne and why is his name in smaller, non-bold font? Why no post count?

He became TheRoyalApe and left for greener, fobler pastures...

Six years later, if Tony were still around I'm certain he'd be amused to know that 2K Sports - no longer a part of Sega - is still eminently bizarre when it comes to acquiring product.

Couldn't get NHL 2k7 from them, but they'll send me MLB 2k7 just for taking part in a press conference call on Thursday. Okay!

MikeVic 02-18-2007 10:36 PM

Fine, I'll say something. What was this thread about anyway?

It occurs to me, if you post every time you view the thread, wouldn't that be an endless cycle, since after posting, you'd add another view automatically as you got pulled back to the thread?

Pyser 02-19-2007 12:33 AM

If you don't, though, how are you going to know if anything useful gets posted?

kingfc22 02-19-2007 01:52 AM

Ehh, not much to see here.

Julio Riddols 02-19-2007 02:09 AM

I knew I shouldn't have come down this road. Now my true personality is going to come out..



MEOW.

Julio! Where you been? Down by the schoolyard?

I guess the rule needs to be that you must post on any self-directed viewing of the thread, which then would leave out the indirect viewings such as the situation you mention above.

In a couple of days they're gonna take me away, when the press lets the story leak. Now when the radical breach comes to get me released it will appear on the cover of Newsweek.

And I'm on my way... I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way- Takin' my time, but I don't know where.

But yeah, thats pretty much where I've been.

MikeVic 02-19-2007 10:30 AM

Damnit, clicked on the thread again.

I think there was a ST:TNG episode about that.
