Original Members -please read-

Vengeance pointed out to me the other day in irc that many of the original message board members are gone now. They have been replaced by spammers and the boards have been overflown. I can't stand to read through every topic now like I used to. I remember that great summer last year where we all posted and knew everyone else by name. There was Cyber, Aidan, Cosmic, Gibb, Septic, Vengeance, etc. If I didn't list you I apologize. If you are an original member (you know who you are) please reply to this.

Yep. I remember the days Magus. I used to read all the topics as well, and reply to just about all of them. The names you listed were the most common ones, and we all got along rather nicely! You went away on vacation for a week or so, and that was when I bought Max Payne for the PC. So many memories!

Hey hey hey hey.... I wanna say a thing. I'm not a old time member (I'm here from only two or three months as you see), yes, I'm some kind of new here, but I don't think I am a spammer or something like that. Just to say that :)

i aint been here too long, but these boards have changed completely even in the short time i have been here.

4 new forums, change to VBulletin, and the fact that most of the active members havnt been here as long as me

The Evil Council's presence in these forums will constitute as a major change. http://www.civgaming.net/gamecatcher...miles/evil.gif

I think I can call myself original, although I never really talked, but I did read all the forums and posts :D

Oh Magus, I must add, I still like all our current members,(current = active), they're good dynamic people, spend a lot of time on the boards, etc. It's just that the boards have become VERY fast paced nowadays, and well, if you don't keep in daily touch with them, you're just gonna lose it. If I don't come here in two days, it seems a different place. That will happen since earlier we used to have a 2 hourly post reply span and now it's not even a minute..

I could put you in touch with a guy nammed floppa21, who would ban people on first offences. That would get rid of 'undesirables'

If we realy wanted to clean up the boards I could do it fast real quick and in a hury. But no one is complaining except the origanl spamers. And well none of the admins have realy said anything to me about it for me to realy want to do anyting serious about it. So i've just been keeping my leaniant ways.

In my mind the board holds a few objectives for people and they are, (all that i can remember atm) in order of importance:
1) People must be helped out here (We acheive this)
2) Everyone must have fun (more than achieved)
3) The board should grow into a community of people who are bonded together on the basis of their degree of pervertedness (j/k) basically, the board should become a community (achieved)

You can easily see that we have achieved every objective, and I kind of like the boards the way they are, we can take the spam and people help out really fast, spam is fine as long as its not 1200 posts a day (no, dont do that dudes). If it's all about post counts, I don't think it would have been fun without competitions for post counts (would make the boards a whole lot duller).

Sephires, they are NOT "original spamers" they used to 0wn the board, and THEY STILL DO!! We must respect them as senior members of the boards and well, they've been responsible for making this board so good!! Come on m8s don't feel insecure! We have a place for you good ol' elites!!

When I said origanal spammers I was refering to Dayvemc and Squirrel. They've been doing a lot of complaining.

Oh no you won't. we have since replaced all of the staff with robots programmed to say we're not in charge, but to do our bidding when we ask.
