Anything Forums

You should combine this with the WLT.

No, we can't do that.

Then we wouldn't know that ycontrol has popped in for a visit.



Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:59090

I think we should.

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:59093

lol yes I pop in every now and then. A lot of new people here. It's still going strong. No new skin yet I see.

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:59100

I remember we tried a new skin once, but nobody liked it and everyone complained, so Red just gave up on the idea. Personally I don't know if I'd want a new skin. The current one may be old or perhaps boring, but at least it doesn't' suck.

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:59111

Yeah I remember that. I actually just mentioned that over at Iceteks. I didn't get to see the skin. I logged in just after he switched back.

Question, before I go on a mad search. Did I say this or just think it...awhile back...

The origins and time line/history of this forum. I think that I tried to get a post going on that topic...jut for curiosity sake. Did that happen? I guess I'll just have to do a search.

I remember an old AF...like a whole different board when I first joined. Then it switched to here...and Red took it over from...someone..."Legend" maybe...can't remember who.

Red took the forum over from Magic; much blood was shed.

Sweet ass...you found it! I was searching and searching through all the threads for it. What did you do, use the search bar? I perhaps should have thought of that earlier.

I searched for all topics that contain “history” in the title and have you as the author. You have to click the “More Options” button to do that.

Ah yes, the "more options button"...

Holy crap, how dead is this place!!!!???

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:67592

Yeah, perhaps we need something new to draw people back to the forum. Perhaps a forum war or something.

Even the monkeys from whom we evolved weren’t dumb enough to vote for your favorite presidential candidate, and your operating system sucks.

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:67595

lol nice.

How about a topic on how bullpoop the movie Zeitgeist is...?

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:67603

I say we find a forum where "furries" congregate and start a war.

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:67630

Charge!!!!

I notice we've discussed how to get people here many times, and still we do nothing about it. Perhaps this time we will?

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:67637

lol nah, just the opposite. Red turned off registrations to keep spammers out...which as a result I guess will keep real peeps out.

Archived topic from Anythingforums, old topic ID:1205, old post ID:67641

Yeah it's a temp solution though. Once all the spam networks realize registrations are closed I'll reopen without any notice. It will hopefully slow down the spammers at the start. Eventually I want to code a 5-10 layer captcha system and implement on all my forums. Will be a pita to register though. What I may also do is merge all my forum user DBs together so if you register say, at Iceteks then your account will work on any of my forums.

Or. . .you could enact a law allowing us to shoot spammers on sight. Seems a lot easier to me.

If you want to find out what an old page from a forum looked like, just enter the url here at the WayBackMachine.

The search results for AF are here.

You can click on any date to see the page that was archived.
