In exactly one week...
SD.NET's BBS 1st anniversary (July 3rd) is in exactly a week from now. I can't believe it's been that long, although that might have something to so with my rarely posting.
Am I the only one who's noticed this?
So thoughts everyone? How has your time here been?
Edit: I guess I should have included how my time here has been.
Ever since this forum was created, it has been the one I visit most frequently, the majority of people here are quite intelligent IMHO and the threads are almost always interesting to read and participate in.
When I first read that Mr. Wong was going to launch his own BBS, I thought the idea was cool, but expected most of the discussion to focus on SW vs ST, make no mistake, I was always an avid follower of the SW vs ST debate, but even a year ago, the subject had had already pretty much been beaten to death.
However, at this point, I find that most of the threads I have been posting in have been about totally different subjects, and the other members here have made them all interesting to read, and discuss.
So basically, I have had a lot of fun on these boards.
My props go out to Mr. Wong, and all the other members who have made this board into what it is today.

This has been a quite enjoyable waste of far to much of my time. Soon will be able to begin celebrating the creation dates of various add-on forums as well.

Apparently, that was important enough to be posted twice.

I'm so excited, and I just can't hide it. I'll need a new avatar to mark the change.
And you may ask yourself, 'Where does that highway go to?'

ack, I can barely remember when I found Stardestroyer.net, it was that long ago. It's become more a myth than a memory, but I think it was when I was searching for something on Midi-Chlorians, and the Episode I page popped up. Does anyone else remember those discussions that were posted before, before the BBS was up?
The only reason I didn't sign up for the BBS sooner was that my cable modem was crapping out the whole summer

Wow, a year is a long time. How old is the HAB? 8 months or so?
Howedar is no longer here. Need to talk to him? Talk to Pick.
If that's the case, I think a sacrificial offering upon the Alter of Wong is in order. One of the ASVSers, of course. Or if not, then a random Red Shirt (no sock puppets though, we need a clean sacrifice) will do just as well.Dalton wrote:A lot of us first ones were immigrants from ASVS.

Hey, isn't that JT guy supposed to be a troll from ASVS? Hm...
