It's awesome that this place is still around, and that there are still good people having a good time here. This forum meant a whole lot to me for a long time and I haven't logged on in probably three years. Crazy.
Anyway... thanks to everyone who's ever been a part of EoFF. You're all pretty cool.
Also, so this isn't spam... does anyone from the EZBoard or the super early days of the not-EZBoard still hang around here? And if so, what have you been up to for the past four years?!?!
Looks like someone isn't going to get points for an oldbie revive.
Hey skanker, post in this thread and say that I told you to post there even though I didn't (although I just did).
I was never around for EZBoard and I don't know who was. Kishi and BoB most definitely, but not sure about anyone else.
edit:Paul, right?Nvm, he joined later. :p But how about meat puppet? [/edit]
And Cid, I'm guessing. xD
Also let's not forget Raistlin (try as we might) who was a member even before Cid was.
Really? Wow.
Oh, and theundeadhero prob was. And maybe Leeza. edit: And how about Bert or Jojee?
Damn straight! :cool: (Actually I was about 15-20 members after Cid. No matter how many times I tried, I could not join before the EzBoard was actually made)Quote:

Oh, and I love how all of us always forget how long the twerp has actually been a member. Jojo was also an original mod of the EzBoard.
EDIT: you're way off with tuh, Leeza, and Bert. They are total newbies. Jojo, as mentioned above, is an oldtimer.
Lol, Jojee better not catch you calling her old. xD
Are ed and Shlup members from the EZboard as well?
Or what? She'll glare at my shin? I can deal with that munchkin.
EDIT: in response to AK.
ed no. Shlup, I don't think so. IIRC, Sean told her about the EzBoard when they were both in school together, but she didn't actuallys how up until later.
So weird. People are probably all... old... and having jobs and stuff. That is just bananas.
I just realized I can't even remember who was around on the EZBoard and who came in later.
Also, hey, Raist-dog.
I started posting here in 2000 as Zell 007. I'm not sure if you'll remember me, though. But yeah... over 8 years for me, now. I started posting here in the sixth grade and now I'm a sophomore in college. It's really really weird to think about.
I joined August 18, 2000. Don't remember what kind of board that was. I lurked when it was "Cid's Highwind" though.
Hi skanker! You're right, we're old. :(
I got married and teach middle school now. Last time you were here I was pissing around in college.
I've been around long enough to remember the last time you were here, but that's about it!
Wow, you joined like a month before me. I thought you were around longer than that.Quote:

You just get bonus points for going to high school with the man himself.Quote:

Do I get points for spending three days in a beach house with "the man himself?" And, no, it wasn't what you're thinking.
I remember you used to post here a lot, easily recognizable by the same avatar.
Welcome back.
Although I am more of a newbie, I actually registered a month before Kishi. He just posted way more than I did while I loitered around the FFV forum.Quote:

As for you, you're not "old" at EoFF. You're "senile".
I actually had an account in 1999 "Goldchocobo33" which eventually got deleted for inactivity. So, technically I was there, but certainly can't say I was present much. Not that things change much.
I actually think I lied about my age because I wasn't quite 13 yet. Ha, thinking of that is funny.
i...didnt even know this place existed back then
shut up, skanker.
I do nothing but train, and kill things now.
I may as well not have been there for the ez board, because my memory is so crap. I was the laziest moderator of all time.
Yeah, I remember, you useless FFT forum co-mod. :mad2:
Killing things is pretty awesome. Are you in the military? Or are we talking Halo/Call of Duty training?
That's the spirit, raist!
lololol
The Highwind was the name of the Ezboard originally. After about six months, it became EoFF. Then we got UBB.
The Highwind. Sean's Highwind.
Let's party sometime, man. We're both old and mature now. We can go to "bars" or something.
I'm not exactly positive when I joined. I believe it was late 1999 as I was in 8th grade when I joined. When we switched form the EZboard to the UBB you had to re-register right? I was "grounded" from the internet at that time so I wasn't able to re-register until a later date.
Yeah we're all grown up. I moved to Oregon. I do research on babies for a living.
Just how old are you now skanker? What're you up to? Thanks for coming to my message board. I'm over there more often than here.
Research on babies? That sounds awesome. How old are you? I remember you were still in college last time we talked about a hundred years ago. And whereabouts in Oregon are you? I have a few friends who moved there after college. People with real jobs... weird.Quote:

Well okay, now EoFF makes me sad. ;_;
I was XXXSephirothXXX in the EZboard. I was 12...! Now I'll be 22 in a few months. Ohmygod. What happened to our childhoods!?
*kicks Wesly in the shins*
Edit: Heyyy I'm in my first year of law school too :3 Isn't it terrible?
Edit2: OHMYGOD aren't you supposed to be studying for finals right now? I still haven't finished my outlines yet! *runs around like a headless chicken and then goes back to torts outlining* ;___;
What up yo. I am still around and rockin' it but I am no longer the terror I was...they cracked down hard on everything since that long ago and you just can't get away with anything any more...that I and I am old and have marginally better things to do.
It's pretty terrible. Kind of funny, but I hadn't been on EoFF in years, and I was so not into doing my contracts outline that I put it off by checking up on things here. I've got all of my outlines done except for that one, and I just took a practice exam for crim, so hopefully I'll be alright.Quote:

My civ pro outline is 60 pages, single spaced, 11pt font... and all my classmates somehow have 80 page outlines! What am I doing wrong omg. xD Dear God, please do not let me fail law school please I'll never use your name in vain again jesus christ! I'm not crazy.
I just want so badly to be in the top third of the class, and that + my chronic slacking off throughout the semester while everyone in my class is studying 6+ hours a day is not meshing well right now. @_@ ...So I remedy it by slacking off more~
And this is why I will not date a fellow law student xD;
P.P.S. for everyone who thinks I'm totally neurotic, I am, but our finals = the only grade we receive in the class and everything is curved and class rank is so important. :mog: Yay!
Haha. I totally sympathize with you. Some of my outlines are like fifteen pages, and other peoples are fifty. So, imagine how I feel. I get to take civ pro next semester. I am crazy excited.
You can't let all those crazy people stress you out. If you're studying as much as you think you need to, you should be fine. You've gotta think that those people are studying so much cause they don't get it. And you don't need to study because you do. That's what I've been trying to convince myself of, anyway. Who knows.
Also... the curve is terrible.
Rofl. If you're talking Pasadena, CA. There is literally ONE city between us.
It's a five minute drive on the 210.... IF you're talking Cali.
I am talking Pasadena, CA. Where are you nowadays?
edit: Rancho Cucamonga isn't that close is what I mean... Monrovia? Rosemead? San Gabriel? Or the other way... I don't know what's the other way.
rofl. i'm in rancho. five minutes was exaggerated. i can get there in 15 minutes easy though. i drive like a douchbag.
edit: wow. I didn't know God was Unne. Sup, buuudy?
If Erik Ramza used to be a moderator, shouldn't he be in the Former Staff user group?
it's cool, I didn't know final fantasy existed.Quote:

I remember registering like 8 times x_x And I sporadically visited after the EZboard so I think my current account was registered sometime in 2001. But then Britt changed my registration to like 1990 haha n_n
Sup, guys?
Hey. Good to see you around. :)
It's funny how you guys show up when you have been mentioned at the tGA thread as past tGA members. :D
Do you live closer to PCC or Old Town?Quote:

Cool. That's a nice area. I really like it around the Rose Bowl area too. Totally out of my league, but some nice development in that part.
