5. And lastly, perphaps one of the saddest moments in OWF history, when the forum split in 2002, and the conclusion. Sorry if I pick any 4-year old scabs open with this, shit happens after all, and no-one's upset over this anymore. :P (rofl, someone lied blatantly:"- Dark Hood posted 'ere for the last time ever ~ 8/19/02 01.22am GMT") |
Heh, I remember making a farewell topic as well. I had been away from the board for some time, but I was still pretty shaken by what happened as well, so I joined the others at the Glass Asylum.
For anyone who's interested, I've got some screenshots of it's various designs. It went through a ridiculous number of redesigns during its brief existence. These are low-quality versions - the originals were too large to upload.
Notes on the designs
#1 - Original design. The one element that stayed through all designs was the flower.
#2 - Nobody liked this design. It didn't stay long.
#3 - I've actually nothing interesting to say about this one.
There was also a fourth, circus-styled design. After that the board disappeared for a while. Then Sydney brought it back with a... colourful design, after which TGA vanished forever.
Some of the old regulars can actually still be found at
The Church of Pokey (formerly The Stonage Repository).
