Luke is a Global Moderator. And you're correct, it is thanks to him you're back. I'm sure he's told you of the consequences should you play up again.

Alcar...

T-nex 03-26-2006 04:34 AM

Alcar why wont you just leave this conflict be? He's changed alright ok? No need to rub the past in the presence. If he does something again, you can just discretely ban him... Damn i hate when people bring up dead arguements... sorry... :-(

Biggy Bro Slig 03-26-2006 05:36 AM

My mind's a little Hazey today...(Stupid question)
Who's Luke?

T-nex 03-26-2006 06:23 AM

Luke = Searex....

Biggy Bro Slig 03-26-2006 06:55 AM

Ahh yes. Good ole Luke. Thanx.
What is Alcar judging him by?

AquaticAmbi 03-26-2006 09:52 AM

Judging who? SS?

Let's just say Alcar didn't understand another one of SS's little jokes. Something about threatening the forum's security. Funny, eh?


But yes, T-nex is right, people can change.

Rich 03-26-2006 09:57 AM

Hey Alcar, I just killed all of your family and friends.

What? It was a joke, I didn't mean it like that. [/Shitty SS style Humour]

Sekto Springs 03-26-2006 11:12 AM

Yeah, my past is definitely shakey, and I've long since accepted the consequences.

Really though it's not a big deal. I'm like a gay pride march, I'm here so get used to it.

Statikk HDM 03-27-2006 01:24 PM

The ballad of PinkHairedMudoken. When she was around I think I had the most fun. There are a lot of members who after the Sydney rebellion are no longer with us:Jacob, Rettik/Danny, Pilot, ODDBODD(the guy who tried to kill himself), etc.
I don't know what it is but this forum is flat soda. And not root beer flat, which is a good flat, but Sprite flat.

Can someone tell me why MasterChief was hated so much aorund here? Along with Reece Charles. I honestly don't get why so many people hate him in the first place.

Oh yeah, I remember PHM. She was awesome! You don't come across punker chicks that like Ren and Stimpy all too often.
I still keep in contact with Chris (jacob). Pilot was a good member, Oddbodd seemed sort of invisible when I was around.

And Used, I can't recall Masterchief, but I believe it was found out Reece was a multi used by Death (who's still on here on an account or two).

used:) 03-27-2006 02:00 PM

I know the whole multi story. I just felt it was something that Reece did that made people so pissed off at him and his multies. Kind of pathetic the people here are to get so pissed off by something as small as creating multies. Haha, ho hum, hee hee hee.

Rich 03-27-2006 02:17 PM

I think its more to do with the fact that he was an arrogant, lying prick with a superiority complex.

There are/were other multis, so it wasn't the fact that he had more than one account that people got angry over.

Yeah, after digging up some of his old posts, I see what you mean.

AquaticAmbi 03-27-2006 04:30 PM

All the multi stories are pretty entertaining... Mmyep.

Jacob didn't leave with the "Rebellion"... at least not permanently. He left for university quite a few months ago though.

Man, the Jacob and DI days were pretty great. Only lasted a short while during my time here, sadly. I miss their snarky remarks... even the ones directed at me.

I joined at the very end of all the good times, when threads could be threads, free of all the senseless drama. It's probably the reason why I've stuck around.

Thankyou for clearing it up, Rich. I have done a bit of research myself and I can see what you mean.

Statikk HDM 03-28-2006 12:49 PM

Jacob was a bit of a Nazi though. It was still interesting.
Shit, I 'member back in the day where if you had a thread with anything dealing with fags, evolution, abortion, or Why X sucks balls you'd have a multi-page thread. And I was a relative late comer to this little shindig we call OWF.
/I try to imagine the best place I've BEEN can I go back AGAIN?

Havoc 03-28-2006 01:31 PM

Hey, as we are discussion the past, can anyone tell me what exactly happened at that rebellion anyway? I remember it taking place, and taking part of it... to a certain extent... but I have no IDEA what it all got started with or how it ended. Someone debrief me!

Rebellion!? Um, uh, hehe, what rebellion? I didn't organize any rebellion! YOU'RE CRAZY! Uh, I don't know you people.

You mean the Glass Asylum? It has long been lost to expiration dates.

Rich 03-28-2006 01:58 PM

Short version: Sydney was removed from power by other Admins after the banning of two apparently undeserving members, he was re-instated soon after but it pissed off a lot of people who then left and never returned. They made their own forum, but it was shut down not long after.

Havoc 03-28-2006 02:05 PM

Oh yea... I think I vaguely remember that... Or I must be completely confused with some other rebellion we had here.

used:) 03-28-2006 05:08 PM

Wasn't it the other way around? Didn't Sydney leave with members like Pilot and Lantra who made the Glass Asylum and was later shut down?

I have to say, I was laughing my ass off when I was reading that return thread Sydney made where he was all like "I AM YOUR QUEEN, BOW DOWN BEFORE ME!!!!!!! I WANT YOUR SOUL!!!!!!"

AquaticAmbi 03-28-2006 05:31 PM

Yeah, didn't Sydney own TGA? And when he/she shut it down it down, I heard there was just a big, rainbow page saying "You're all gay" and some type of farewell.

Oh how many times of discussions of the TGA split must exist here. Even people who joined long afterwards, such as Used and me, know lots about it! :p

Is that the one that said: "You've been pranked by the master" or something similar to that? Cause I remember, when I was not yet a member, I used to come check things out, and I saw this person who was saying that Fangus is not real and that "You were pranked, Screw you George Bush, ect."

No, this stuff all took place before Fangus and even Stranger.

No, thatw as Mr. Whats his face. Not Sydney.

During the forums hacking last year, I did a few searches with the hacker's name and found numerous forums hacked with the same cover page. I also found lots of forums with threads baout how pissed they were about it, as one would expect.

Tis a shame really, things were going really well at the time with great threads like the Fast Food one. I think the hacking sealed the fate of OWF's dullness and senseless drama (which I can see has dropped quite a bit renetly, good job everyone!).

Was that..... their username?
And so you DO remember that? Because last time I mentioned it, nobody remembered that happening, but I certainly did.

Wolfpac 03-28-2006 10:52 PM

Just wondering, who here is a member from way back? Like from the EZboard and the UBB days? I remember the old EZboard days when there was no Off-Topic discussion. If you wanted to post a general topic then you had to write (OT) in the subject matter. It got to the point where there was so many of the (OT) threads a general discussion forum was made.

Memories... :p

Mojo 03-29-2006 01:14 AM

Used, you beat me with posting about Masterchief. The guy kept on claiming he was the uberest of Halo players, and swore he could pwn all of us. Then he went on a random and brutal flaming rampage. I think that it was in one of the Halo 2 threads.

Biggy Bro Slig 03-29-2006 02:13 AM

Recently, all the old members have been dropping out, because of the nightmarish new members. And all the old ones. This thread shouldn't be called Hilarity of OWF's History, it should be called, "The Darkness of OWF's History."

Oh yea I remember that. Vaguely... I might have just been lurking this place back then, not actualy registered. But damn... old times XD.

Al the Vykker 03-29-2006 07:46 PM

Yeah things have changed quite a bit over the years, then again so have many members to some degree or another. I was only 13 when I first joined the forums and now I'm 18. But there's no denying there were some "dark" times if that's a fitting word for what happened. So how we perceive things changed as well as there seemed to be a lot of drastic change all at once over a short course of time and now not so much, minus some random chaos here and there.

Mojo 03-30-2006 03:32 AM

I'm from the UBB days. So yeah, you can call me a semi-veteran.

Statikk HDM 03-30-2006 01:25 PM

Like Alpha-Scrab I was around before the forum change.
I remember there being a lot of childish brutal flamefests going on over which was the best console, Xbox, PS2, or Gamecube.
/AND IT CLEARLY IS THE BOX YOU IGNANT MOTHERS.
/Beatdown by the TRUTH.

Rich 03-30-2006 01:48 PM

I joined just after the move from the Ezboard.

Nah, I went on a brutal flaming rampage against him.
I have never met a person on a message board that I hate more than that guy.
But he definitely deserved it, possibly not how bad he got it though. I remember Al was good friends with him in real life.

The drama is what made this place. You can't even start an argument here anymore because many new users can't handle it and want this to be a happy place where no one steps out of line and posts an opposing opinion.

I'd agree, but people would tear me apart, Fax. ;)

Wil 04-03-2006 01:24 PM

Pilot didn't run off with Sydney, it was Pilot who pushed Sydney away. The Glass Asylum may have died, but its legacy continued with The Stoneage Repository and then The Church of Pokey. I briefly swung by there a few months ago, but it's full of such immaturity and lack of depth I just couldn't stay.

I joined the ezBoard Oddworld Forums wayges back. I remember a post by ODDBODD reminiscing about the good old days. :p I remember an argument I got into with PinkHaired over whether Sligs were related to Glukkons. She wouldn't have any of it, refusing, as she did, to accept anything to do with evolution. Haha, poor soul. I got my caps lock on and everything.

Go and cut yourself. If anything, it should be 'The Puberty of OWF'.

Look up my early posts, and be prepared to shit bricks with laughter. I'm sure that applies to many peoples.
