First post in 8 years
 

This place popped into my head for the first time in ages. Joined as a 14 year old kid knowing nothing about music and have "returned" as a 27 year old man, who often feels like a 14 year old kid, knowing slightly less than nothing.

Man, this place brings back the nostalgia feels. Anyone still around from the 2006-2008 days? Jesus, I used to be a moderator around here.

MB was a special place, glad to see it's still around and active!

Pretty sure you were long gone when I joined but I've seen you around while going through classic MB ****storms. Welcome back and ****.

Reading over the 'Metal Education thread' has made me cringe more or less constantly haha.

I haven't really had time for message boards for the past few years. Makes me sad actually. I love the bulletin style (can't stand reddit's layout). Just super bored at work (60% of the office is out for the winter break).

Glad (?) to see the stuff is still archived! I was mostly an elitist ass, but damn it we laughed a lot!

every time i see your avatar in a thread it makes me happy

Holy ****

^ Under's sockpuppet account.

WHat's up man, I'm a newer member here I guess (although not really anymore). I recently came back as well after nearly a year. I agree this is a special place and I always get sucked back.

Get sucked.

I joined in early 08 but I don't know if our paths ever crossed. I'm still in touch with Ethan though, who I'm sure you remember. :)

Shhhhh.

Ethan I do remember. Emo kid from the Northwest, right (at least, as of 8 years ago haha)? He weathered the initial storm of my outrageous comments and became a buddy.

I still remember jibber, David Frost, Zealious, ThriceisNice, a perfect sonnet (I went to college with him, haven't seen the guy in years though), right track, satchmo, and a few others that I'm not 100% on the screen names.

Thanks for the welcome guys! My online persona has mellowed to mirror my actual persona. I'll try and breath some life into the rock/metal boards, sans troll-talk, over the next few weeks.

I didn't really post much until late 2008 so I don't think our paths really crossed much, but I definitely have seen a lot of your posts over the years.

welcome back

oh this is awesome! another relic! I've loved seeing your avatar in the archived posts btw.

Is anyone seriously failing to mention his username? I hope by now he's shifted his position a bit.

OK, I will. Is any one else wondering if it is "rise again strocks?" and what does it mean? who is Strocks?

I vaguely remember riseagainstrocks but I'm such a lounge lizard that I very rarely posted in the music side of things but I loved that he mentioned jibber. Haven't seen that name in ages.

Anyways, welcome back and this is a good time to come hang out with us during your boring down time at work.

Yeah, 'riseagainstrocks' hasn't really been accurate since their second album haha. I respond to RAR as well.


Rise Against rocks, well at least they used to. Proof?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlGhIekLbXw

RPM 10 is probably one of the best albums of melodic hardcore. I'd say up to album 4 they were pretty aight. Repeal to Reason or whatever is where they lost it.

But yeah I originally misread his name as riseagainstsocks, which imo would be much better.

I remember this motherfucker here! This is oojay, from back in the day, BTW. Pretty sure we used to argue a lot, but forget that noise. Glad you're still alive bro!

Aw, I'd love to drop Ethan a line! Old Crowquill! Didn't know that anyone here remembered him!

You could have just asked me I have him on Facebook but it's not like we talk everyday or something.

Haha, oojay is definitely a name I remember. Good to see you're still here man! Hope my internet cruelty wasn't too bad. I've seen some of the stuff I used to write here. Most of it is awful.

You wouldn't happen to remember anything specifically? I keep a record of certain forum events of note (such as the RockGuitar101 v Right-Track dispute) and I'm always looking for more forum ****storms.

I remember him. We were mods together. He was also one of the first people I ever talked to on here.

The first ten people I talked to were either banned or quit because this place was too much for them to handle.

And now you have my sexy midget body as an avatar. Does that make you touch yourself?

No, maybe it does for habibi PGB, idk.

My torch burns for Wonder Woman.

OMG look at her hands!!! She's ET!

Not really. There was a 'Horrible Person contest' thread and I'm sure some of my entries were saying mocking things about oojay. You were really into Fozzy or something, right? When I have some time, I'll sort through some old posts and see if anything is worth bringing up.

If you ever find the time you should check out Flyingpig's portal of inane hooker insanity. It's pretty much the best thing this forum ever produced.

The Adventures of Flyingpig437: Cheryl + Derek The Paul Saga

I miss flying pig.

You are pretty much the MB historian.

Trying to keep all the forum ****shows all together in one place.

ftfy

I used to be an ignorant teenager and a bible thumper. Any insults directed my way were most certainly warranted lol. Water under the bridge as far as I'm concerned!

I look back on my old posts and cringe!

He was just now brought to my memory.

I remember Ethan [Crowquill], FenixPunk, Vanilla, UrbanHatemonger, Right-Track, DJ Chameleon and a handful of others from back in the day. Used to chat with TommyRocker and BlackTShirt when I first joined.

And when GregB sold us for a vacation lol.

I reminisce about the "Glory Days" and smile lol.
