My user account on here is ten years old today, yay! Minsc and Boo shall throw confetti all over the place and Edwina will be forced to clean up the mess!

[Thain Esh Kelch]

Happy anniversary!

While most people have grown up, gotten a job, and moved out of their parents basement... YOU my friend have kept the faith!  ::Bro chest bump::

Me thinks Diablfett needs a new title befitting his rank as hypnotised slave to the will of tBC.

Just a thought.

...of course the others who have been around here (and still are active)  after ten years should also be given an opportunity to show their loyal  patronage to IMG.

Wow, you were already around when you had to chisel your posts for the forum on small slate tablets and tie it to carrier hawks, before sending them to the nearest internet administration office where trained slaves pulled the appropriate switches to convert the text into bits and bytes.

Hm... that was how we used the internet in 2002, didn't we? It's so long ago, my memory is somewhat hazy...

Anyway, congratulations. But only averagely 10 posts per year in last 10 years?

I'm thinking of restricting his account so that he can no longer flood the forums with all of his verbose nonsense.

Hey, I have a job and I just moved out of their basement yesterday!

While a custom title sounds neat, I am afraid of what it could be.

Ah, those were the days... back when PPC reigned supreme and a decent computer only cost you around $2,000! Oh, I guess they still cost the same...

Verbose nonsense is the thing that keeps this forum alive!

After this thread, you only have 8 posts remaining for 2012. Use them wisely!

Grats on the 10 years. They say the first ten are the hardest

That is kind of the idea.

I'm still shocked by the fact that tBC had only been here about 14 months or so before I showed up. Considering how little I know about what I'm doing, it makes me fear for the forums!

[Kilvain]

Congrats!

Yeah, there's a reason I disabled that button.  I didn't want to mention it before.

04? 05?! Cripes!

Young 'ens, the lot of you. I remember when tBC was a freshly washed newbie!

And if I ever could remember my password for the original DavidJJ account, I'd have an even earlier date. Now get off my lawn!

[Except for the verbose Diablofett and Thain and maybe Whaleman, they can stay.]

Yeah, I had a look through the first people to join IMG. I spotted your old account there. There still are a few others who have been around for more than ten years now.

…although the most prolific spammers posters have arisen in the time of '04 to '05, namely tBC, Eric, Frost and the others.

[Thain Esh Kelch]

Phew, I'm not a spammer then. I am apparently from a time where playing games were a higher priority than spewing pointless babble on the interwebz.

That also explains why I can beat any of you 1 on 1 on Waldos World Arena.

[Eric5h5]

Spewing pointless babble is a game.  A game I win.

[The Liberator]

Seriously though, just look at the numbers.

Sadly Eric, I believe either tBC or IMG news wins. …like tBC's numerical reputation value, I am sure his actual number of posts is completely correct and not at all fraudulent.

[Frost]

Didn't tBC slice off some of teflon's posts to cut him down to size a while back, too, or he'd be even higher? Or am I thinking of the Late Great Spammer Space_Pirate_Killer?

Wonder what happened to him anyway. Him, Lord Brixton, Tomatocow, Batcat... not all the oldies from when I joined are still around.

Oh, it's on. And it's Waldo World Arena. Man, you talkin' domination and you can't even spell that popsnizzle! Damn!

Pop quiz: Does Waldo World Arena have two doors at each end, or one?

Heh, probably my first 1000 posts had to be my first year here. This place turned into a new outlet for procrastination where I could post instead of doing college homework.

Although I think tBC's post number is accurate... I remember it back around 6000 and never saw any bumps. He's just the biggest postwhore this side of Tau Ceti. That rep is completely hacked though.

Two. And if you are awesome, you know the secret fifth door that leads to the room of strippers.
