Yeah. You were a mod for, like, around a year, give or take? Not that you were necessarily there by the end of it, but that's because you were smart enough to get out.

And then LA kept dragging you back in.

A tragic story of love and loss and addiction. And a tragically silly username that I've owned for the better half of my life.

[BurgundyTears]

You just have to own the name. Just act like there's nothing silly about it at all and no one will ever think about it again.

I'd beat you easily in a who's-username-is-more-teen-emo fight.

[deep]

Very true! I concede defeat. If it's any consolation, your username predates the villian in Casino Royale. You should sue them.

[Selena]

Yes, you were totally a mod. You were the co-mod when I joined up, then when Chik went off to her first college, I was modded to take her place. The dorm was made glorious as a result of my rise and her fall. Then she came back. And then there was catfighting.

You got distracted by the real world, whatever that is, and then we got stuck with wisp after you were de-modded.

I mean, we had the honor of working with wisp.

Yes.

Man. Now I feel even more guilty for defaulting on two Modships. Maybe I repressed my LoD modship for that reason.

[canas is back]

Yay story time, tell me more...

[Sir Turtlelot]

(munches on popcorn)

Yes, go on...

[BurgundyTears]

Wait, villain in Casino Royale? Do tell. (Although there's at least one other ordinary person who started using my nick after me, to my utter rage when I first noticed. However, the concept of red tears is Older than Dirt, so I don't think I can sue Ian Fleming et al.)

Look on the bright side, if it wasn't for me you could've defaulted on an Adminship! XD

[deep]

You've saved me a life of greater infamy, Vet. How may I ever repay you?

[Twinrova]

I have never been considered for an admin position. And with good reason.

[Selena]

Imagine the drunk admin CP antics.

[Twinrova]

I can operate a mouse just fine thank you. Just ... not a keyboard... >__>

Similar story here. Took me longer to find the rest of it, and I was never fond of Sci Fi or Contro. Used to post in Life a lot, before it became Romance and Ranting. I even modded there for a while with Jaina and Fizzbit.

Also, arumna, remember our five-man superstar tag team? You, me, Davogones, Kholdstare, and Trigaba? Man, those were the days (and other cheesy reminiscing lines).

Oh yeah, Kholdstare and Trig. What happened to those guys!?

Contro really hasn't been the same since the last time Alak or Korhend were here. There are several more Contro regulars I miss.

Yeah, it really hasn't. We need to get another atheist Jew and...whatever the hell Korhend was.

The infighting is what I missed the most.

No idea what's become of Trig, and the last I heard from Kholdstare (feels weird calling him that; he and I became such confidants for each other in '04 that I think of his real name first) was in 2008, and that was just a brief E-mail exchange. I don't think there's much likelihood of him returning to LA, but, hell, anything's possible, I guess.

You know, I just wrote Part II down but.....meh. Why bother when no one gives a fuck.

Carry on.

Someone's a debbie downer.

Heck, I daresay a negative nancy.

I'm still really interested in reading the rest of the story, this whole thread has already revealed a lot to me about LA's past.

Hey!

Use the cat version of the sound effect at the very least if you're going to do that.

Surely you've seen the skit.

Sounds to me like another attempt to yet again not actually say what the Incident was.

I showed up shortly the Incident, whatever that was. Found the boards via the old Zelda Legends website. I think I sent a wacky theory to davogones, and he posted about it here, as was his custom. Traced it back and hung out in the Zelda Theory forum for a long time.

I eventually was dormed in DoM, which was awesome and super cool. Later I was a mod for DeMoun, left for a while, never came back, became a mod for Lost Woods, resigned because I wasn't a very good mod, single-handedly won a few dorm wars, and have mostly hung out in the shadows ever since.

Pretty much. xD


My precious Nature forum was pretty much the best thing to ever happen to LA in all its history, but sadly no one but myself recognized its genius....so it was nuked. Admin giveth, and admin taketh away. u_u


Oh man, does anybody remember the LA Times? That's what it was called, right? The newspaper?

Edited by Rova, 30 July 2011 - 03:56 PM.

[deep]

I think I was a writer for the LA Times. What on earth did we bother reporting about anyway?

[Twinrova]

.. I have no idea. xD But I think I vaguely remember being mentioned in an issue or two and being really excited about it.

Wasn't there some kind of music column? I want to say you or Mitch or maybe that X-Rok dude was responsible for that.
