People would post and comment on how well-known certain members were, and often elaborated about when they first posted in a discussion with them, or RPd with them, or raided with them. It was a great place for nostalgia.
I hope this can be a similar thread where we can talk specifically about those forumites who have impacted our lives or one point or another, including those who sadly are no longer among us. The ones that kinda stuck in our heads, the ones that always made us laugh, etc. But please - no insults.
Generalities: I remember Four-Sided Triangles because they called me a "Poe" my first day on the forum. I learned what the word "Poe" was that day!
Hippostania (spelling?) always made me laugh. So did the Truth and the Light (Lies and Ignorance). Funniest avatar goes to Franklin Bluth. Try debating seriously with a muppet. Of course, debating seriously with Richard Nixon - a la Mike the Progressive - was equally funny, especially when Mike was drunk. I miss Nightkill and South Asia Minor too for some reason because they both had the unique distinction of making me spray my drink over my keyboard. I forgot what it was?, but I've never laughed so hard at something on an online forum.
Other forums: Jenrak, Junkyland, and Of the Quendi introduced me to RPing. I have nothing but fond memories of Jenrak, but is it true they had cancer at one point?
Oh well, these are some of the people I can recollect from my time on NS. Sadly, others I cannot remember their names just their avatars. Like pink flash animation of a gas mask girl.
What about you? Who were the most memorable characters in your colorful past on this forum? Anybody who made a difference?
To paraphrase Rick and Morty;
And I honestly can't even tell most of you apart half the time because I don't go by post count or flag, I go by amount of pain in my ass, which makes you all identical.
At least you still feel something, and have not drank yourself to death in this war.
