I recall Abe Babe being generally nice and normal... on the forums... never spoken to ehr outside the forums.

Phylum 01-05-2013 03:58 PM

I was tentative about mentioning the ED page in case this happened. I think internet villain is a bit harsh. Internet victim, maybe?

I don't remember her much, but she has a few posts that overlap with my time here. She always seemed fairly nice. I was surprised when someone first linked to that.

Mr. Bungle 01-05-2013 04:02 PM

The more I think about it and how ED is pretty much a collective of assholes, the more I realize that she didn't really do anything bad. She's just... odd.

Manco 01-05-2013 05:31 PM

Wait I remember a story about the original owner of OWF being kicked out in some dramatic fashion. Was that Cloverfield or am I remembering things that never happened?

MA 01-05-2013 05:41 PM

no that was Sydney, the chick with a dick. see STM for further details.

Phylum 01-05-2013 05:41 PM

That was Sydney.

STM 01-05-2013 05:52 PM

VIVA LA REVOLUCION, COMRADES.

Manco 01-05-2013 06:20 PM

Huh, for some reason I totally thought they were the same person.

Damn there's a lotta venom in that old thread. What's the full story behind Sydney again?

MA 01-05-2013 06:31 PM

she went mad bought herself a penis and created The Glass Package. Pilot, Alcar, Abe Babe/Cloverfield and a few others mutinied and took control of this online oasis. Sydney fucked off and disappeared, taking the Third Reich with her.

hedjeroo 01-05-2013 07:37 PM

The amount of nostalgia I get from that thread is sickening - not because I was a member when it happened, but because a very similar thing happened on an old forum of mine. And dear god that is a trainwreck of a thread.

Nepsotic 01-05-2013 10:25 PM

The OWF was a trainwreck back then, from what I can tell.

you've failed to mention the bit about me and Morgan trolling the fuck out of Sydney in oddchat, sending her into a rage, getting banned then fueling the fires of the odd-coup via msn messenger.

tl;dr : I raped the old forums, what you see here is the bastard child my seed spawned.

sometimes I miss the old vets like Danny and Jacob, though.

T-nex 01-06-2013 02:22 AM

Jacob sometimes returns for a post. But people always get mad at him ._.

Nate 01-06-2013 03:04 AM

He's lost his flair, though.

Disgruntled Intern 01-06-2013 03:19 AM

more than anyone else, I miss Morgan.

STM 01-06-2013 04:26 AM

I think it's funny how everyone is so formal in that thread, not to mention incredibly up themselves. Just look at us now...

Disgruntled Intern 01-06-2013 04:29 AM

I just think the whole thing is funny. I mean what the fuck, it's the internet.

Crashpunk 01-06-2013 05:03 AM

:

The internet is full of dicktards and webforums can be full of politics. Someone from her other forum didn't like her and decided to bully her on the internets.

Man... That's really horrible...

Also, I'm I the only one who finds it strange reading old threads from the early days of the Forums? I find it even more amazing that some of you from that time are still around.

Disgruntled Intern 01-06-2013 05:23 AM

every once in a while I realize I've been here since '01, cringe, feel embarrassed and fuck off for a while.

ultimately I get Bored and come back, but the cycle inevitably repeats.

From the sound of it, you probably had to mind your Ps and Qs else you'd be banned.

STM 01-06-2013 06:18 AM

Aye, I can imagine a few of us now would be banned back then. :p

Crashpunk 01-06-2013 06:21 AM

Oh I probably would of been for sure.

Manco 01-06-2013 06:22 AM

I dunno, there's plenty of bad grammar and spelling in that old thread.

Phylum 01-06-2013 02:57 PM

If we were members back then most of us wouldn't have been sucked into the vortex of impossible stupidity that the OWF has become.

In other words, it would have been awful.

MA 01-06-2013 05:21 PM

i think this place has an interesting, varied and bizarre history. all virtual, and it could all be lost in an instant. which would be sad.

then we'd have to start all the fucking meme's again.

Phylum 01-06-2013 05:42 PM

That would be sad!

She wasn't like that on here. I mean, her avatar was of Sephiroth, but otherwise she was just a normal member. Well, as normal as anyone else on OWF.

I would guess that you know the same Real Life things about her that I do, which would make her ED article very tame, and nice by comparison. Maybe you don't. I don't know.

T-nex 01-07-2013 08:18 AM

The important part is she didn't let that affect the forums(not that I know of)... She may have been a loony, but most of us are unscathed.

OANST 01-07-2013 08:21 AM

Didn't let that affect the forums.........Important thing..........Just how big of a nerd are you, lady?

Crashpunk 01-07-2013 09:44 AM

The fact she's on a forum about a video game franchise is pretty nerdy. We are all nerds here.
