I know everyone else does too (maybe) but I started there on like 09. There was like this golden age when everyone was posting and we just chilled. There wasn't so much disdain.

As much as I hate being an oldfag, 2004-05 were the golden years of IB. It was ridiculously fast at night; threads would barely stay on the first page for five minutes before being pushed to the second page.

I have to agree. I was not anywhere near old enough to be on but it was so much fun. I definitely upped my childhood vocab because of those boards.

^this

When I first joined the boards in '04 you could make a thread at 2:30 in the morning and if you didn't actively reply back to people or make it creative enough to where people would respond to each other then it'd be off front page in no time

back then IB was more like a +1 on your post count and babbling was way more user friendly

Please.

The golden age was in '03 when Prospero ruled, there were no folders, and every single thread was shit.

The main thing I did on the Prospero boards and the first year or so on the Lithium ones, I almost exclusively made threads about my yaoi fanfics and my bishies. Very happy it was purged.

Ok apparently I'm still a baby because I have no clue what Prospero is lol

It's like the Gulag in internet message board form that the self-proclaimed grizzled ancient users like to brag about being a part of.

I have perpetually bragged about being a member on the Prospero boards ever since they went away because my life is boring and I have no aspirations beyond creating claims to fame that I can actually achieve.

I get along with the babblers I know, they may come off as jerks but god damn are they good at what they do.

i was lurking in 2011, and didn't start posting until 2012.

the dying down from that period was sad to see until 2013 where it was basically a shell of a shell of it's former self.

Babbling reminds me of a less forgiving reddit. I tried reddit once and just gave up 🤣

I think I went back around that time. When they took the boards off the front page I knew it was over

Lol

The basic point is that the golden age is inevitably when you first joined because the place is so much more exciting to you than it is to all the people that have been there for a spell.

That is a very good point. Also IB was just special. After it shut down I tried to join other forums but they are way more strict than IB ever was. Like you'd get banned for replying with one word. Fuck all that.

Golden years were whenever westpark attained Order of the Owl.

Golden years in general was when I was 8 years old making custom levels in Tenchu 2 with my neighbors from Puerto Rico.

I think that guy actually did get OotL.  He lost his main like early on... sometime in '05 or '06 I think.

He did. I remember he constantly spammed Babbling and IB with empty quotes to up his post count. He lost the main in a matter of months, though.

I stick to /aww, /animalsderping, and a few other animal and or comical subreddits

I posted a video of some art I did and got destroyed. Lol they were so mad. It's like I unintentionally trolled them.

I didn't say anything was wrong with it. I love catching a whiff myself, but I know when to stop and when to draw and when too much leaves my brain too gush.

I know what it can do to the mind. It confuses super chill with fucking idiot.

Idk bro sounds like you're huffing the wrong ass. Huffing ass is super chill.

Nah, I stay away from swamp ass. I rode through New Orleans and I've seen the crocodiles. I'm not simple when it comes to gunk butt.

Huffing ass is super chill if you're an amateur. If you're huffing like a real man then you'd know it's a visceral whirlwind of guttural noises and thrashing at the crack. Pigs in a playpen of fuck.

I gotta stop you right there.  Posting any art online is asking for a bunch of snobby douche's to critique it

unless you're smearing nearly extinct Rhino semen into some weird abstract painting mixed with your blood the art community of reddit will probably never be pleased

Nah if you're a real man you put your nose right on that mother fucker and inhale like a goddamn hippie puffing a blunt. If you're not contracting e. Coli from huffing that shit, you're a fucking phony. Pigs in a playpen of fuck is the name of my shitty punk band

Bitch you gotta pucker up and suck a five gallon ton of ass gas and exhale with your face in the crack so the fumes can rise up to meet you in Valhalla. Shit's not a joint that you pass to Kevin the bass player in your shitty punk band playing second to Green Day at a kiddie bar.

See right there. You brought Norse mythology into it which is a classic cookie cutter maneuver. ALSO my band is not just punk we play two alternative songs and we've made DOZENS dollars doing it. And my bass players name is maggot because we're edgy.

Only a pleb would look down on the mystification of ass huffing. You think the peace pipe actually existed? Nah dude they were huffing ass. It's existed in every culture since the beginning. Disregarding that is, frankly, a show of anti-intellectualism and thus, THUS, a telling example of over-huff as it correlates to incoherence. Your punk band sounds like heavy metal.

Also that thing was like $12 from Hot Topic. Got it on sale, after Halloween, back in 2016.

Yeah because when I joined and for a few years after that were awesome. Actually had friends on there and people to talk to. It even bled into aim/yim friends and group chats. Sometimes you'd even get a mod or admin in them. 

I like this place too but it really is just all shit posting. Not nearly as fun at it used to be.
