It wasn't all bad. There was a lot to laugh at, even though it wasn't supposed to be a comedy forum.
Remember Smokejaguar? He was a nice guy as I recall and a decent moderator - he used to post scans of his weird gothic pencil sketches. Quite sexy some of them. I think he was a Scot.
Then there was Subnubilus, HowWorkGun's son. He wanted to join the marines I believe - wonder how he got on? Is he back with his dad in Hawaii after doing three tours of the gulf? Cowace was also a soldier, wasn't he? Real name Captain Marvel - IIRC (!).
Killjoy was a headcase from the UK who wanted to be a soldier or a games developer - the mind boggles.
Then there was a wheelchair-bound Dutch guy called Jaapverdujin who used to include strange typos in his posts when his cat walked across the keyboard.
Only other name I recall from those halycyon days is Erugifog. I can't remember anything about his posts, but I still find that name drifting through my mind. Where did he get it from? What does it mean?
Ah nostalgia...snapshots of people's lives brought to you courtesy of the internet.
