There goes the first person I talked to on EoFF. *sigh*
Whaaaaat? :[
Now they are just like you guys. NORMAL o.o
the Dolphins won today, too!
But we are DISEASED
I think rotting flesh gives us a certain charm.
Diseased for our mods that left. D:
Actually, that sounds wrong.
WHAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTT!
Well there goes the destruction of the feeble vermin...WHY RUBAH THE DESTROYER, AND KOSHIATAR THE RIGHT HAND :(
Hi, welcome to like, three days ago.

Hi, welcome to the goodbye from staff thread that wasn't made three days ago.
Whoa, didn't see that coming.

Anyone else notice that the high turnover rate started about the time that Raistlin started posting regularly again?
It's Shiny. She's after me next!
It's true that it's hard to compete with those cans.

I have waited many long years for my opportunity to pick the staff off one by one. Only five or so more years and you will all be out of my way!Quote:

Edit: I dug your servitude, Miss Lapiz; it was hot! Cheers to you too, KoShiatar!
I think you are just getting lucky. You've had 10 years and it's taking you this long? It'll be another 10 years until you're done.
I'm more impressed with the Raiders win over the Steelers. Patriots have no defense.Quote:

I'm tempted to randomly mod you on Neskaya now. :bigsmile:
The Steelers lost to Kansas City and can't beat anyone right now. And I hate the Patriots with a fiery passion, so I was more happy that they lost than impressed with the Dolphins.
EDIT: in response to Bunny.
Seconded. Gitonit!Quote:

But, yeah, the Steelers suck, too.
£20 says rubah was fired for her birthday.
So did Oakland!Quote:

yea but the Dolphins are a theme of this thread! Doesn't anyone remember the Hitchhiker's Guide "trilogy"?
eest came back, duh. He's got 14 computers and 319 arms, each housing 7 hands with 51 fingers. If the staff could rely on his forum participation, they'd probably all retire.Quote:

I see he generalizes a lot of the old dates (a remarkable amount of us stepped down in 8/2001, and a bunch of them the chart says were there from the beginning were actually up to a year later), but overall surprisingly accurate. BooB and his charts. *shakes head*
Someone's picking off costumed heroes.Quote:

I may update it again later today!
I've heard that somewhere too.. something about it being some sort of coming-of-age thing or something like that. As far as I know it's not true, though.Quote:

Update attached.
And I completely forgot after you all sidetracked me...
Thankyou to rubah and KoShiatar. In different ways to each other, you both provided us with valuable input. In rubah's case, she was one of the most insanely active posters EoFF will probably ever see, and a staffer of chat and frontsite to boot - not many have managed all three! Kudos to you for your efforts over the years. For KoSher, a massive thanks for taking our staffing to forums where we were generally less active, and also for offering an alternative perspective to most of us on staff. Thanks and hopefully someday you'll stop by again. :)
Maybe when I'm bored I'll try to put together more accurate dates.
... and who the hell was Terra Ryzin?
Weird.
I was kind of hoping you would know. xD Someone from the ezBoard, I guess.Quote:

Got one for SS?
Absolutely no idea. xD That post was from just a week after the EzBoard opened, so my guess would be someone who asked to be staff and then disappeared soon after. There were a few of those, as only a relatively small number of the original mods stuck around for the UBB (me, BOU, Asorie, RSL, Unne, skanker, Jojo... that may be it).Quote:

What the heck is this first duration of 12/5/1999 to 8/1/2001 next to my name? o.o
That's your first stint on staff. You left at some point around 8/1/2001, I guess...
Ooookay, if you say so.
Shlup: as I said, the chart lumps a lot of staffers who came later in with the original bunch at the start.
Daniel: Shlup didn't register until at least a few months into 2000 and wasn't a staff member until sometime after that... probably pretty close to where you currently have her first quit date. xD
Well, it's obviously a work in progress! I only did it for vague ideas on how the staff has changed. The vB dates are pretty accurate though.
*whistles*
I'm an OG.
OG Loc, baby.

YouTube - So Long and Thanks for all the Fish
I'm kind of disappointed that I can't figure out to embed youtube videos here. If that's even possible.
It isn't, so don't be. :monster: We should totally have a youtube tag though.
Yeah I'm pretty shocked that you guys don't have one.
Rubah tried to do that, so we fired her.
For good reason, then. Well, embedded videos don't start automatically, right? Ok, so it wouldn't be too bad. Though that means it wouldn't really be any more effort just clicking on a link.
On the one hand, Rantzien says we should have a youtube tag. On the other hand, so does Aaron Freed. What do we do?!
The "refuse to do anything Aaron suggests" rule is a proud tradition of EoFF dating back years. It must not be broken.
the real reason was because shlup kept capitalizing my nick :p
and I'm pretty sure we've done something that he suggested! if only because that was an argument used against it
eoff staff have done plenty of things I've suggested. Of course, it's debatable whether they ever did any of them promptly; I'd have to go back and look because my memory is :bou::bou::bou::bou:e, but an educated guess says probably not.
And yeah, you have to click on an embedded video for it to start loading.
I prefer links. I've seen message boards that allow embedding and they end up full of YouTube crap everywhere, pretty ugly.
You could always make the youtube tag a click to expand sort of thing like spoiler tags are, or else put in an option to display them in-thread or not. Plus most boards I've seen that have youtube tags enabled don't end up with many of them in many threads; maybe there's a dedicated YouTube thread and that's it.
