great moments in beastie boys message board history

[p-branez]

that renovation or crash or something back in 2003. my name used to be beasties845.

I wonder if the beastie boys knew how much hardship that cost us - the withdrawals we went though in that unknown time (remember aleybees, tulla, yerfavbandsux, cerveza -where are they? hello?) , the other much cheaper looking board someone made that we posted on, and the horror of our giant post counts resetting, new names in april 2003?

this place is something else, no joke - one of those online communities that sprouted 10 years before online communities became alive, can only speak for a fraction. a spontaneous community of people that happen to like one group, how does this thing go on - do other bands have the same absurd following of a certain and small group of people? can't think of many things i have held longer in my life than being a part of this message board. someday i am hoping to do a study of this board and the people that post here, that's all.

I posted on the deftones board starting in 1998 for about 4 years, I think. That one also started as a chat and morphed into a posting board.

It was similar to BBMB, a smallish group of regulars, people talking, sharing life experiences, opinions, etc. It wasn't quite as cohesive as this place is but it came close.

When the board crashed, Fern posted a picture of his dick on the temp. forum.

Didn't Kate D fake the suicide of that girl? I can't remember if the girl was even real in the first place.

Then there was the time that Bob posted about losing his virginity and how he came so hard he thought he was going to shit the bed, but then that was all a wind up too. Was that Kate D again?

[Bob]

nah that was notorious lol

and it was quite the notorious lol indeed

[ericlee]

I remember making a "make a false and reckless accusation about the person above you thread" a coupla years ago. That was pretty fun.

That random dogs farting on bitches or whatever thread TNOL made a while ago too.

[Helvete]

Pretty much me.

[Guy Incognito]

this was the first message board i ever used and thought others would be like this, turns out they were shit.


only been here 4 years and i can only remember anything from last year or so.

the whole kenny whatsisname v everyone thread was funny

bobs date thread even though it was like last week or something, maybe bob wouldnt thank me for mentioning it, but i just thought it was nice the way pretty much everyone on here was pleased, encouraging, supportive and hilarious etc.It was a good example if whats good about the people here.

hey P-branez

[camo]

The threads about me becoming single rocked

[hpdrifter]

Huh, mine too.

[camo]

Steal my thunder won't you?

[Echewta]

The suicide one sucked because they said they were in a city near me. I actually tried to help.

Nothing more funny.

[camo]

Did they light themselves on fire?

[Echewta]

No, I don't quite remember what they were going to do but a few of us took it pretty seriously.

[camo]

Oh, sorry about the above joke then.

[Echewta]

Don't worry about it. First thing I thought of was the Rage Against the Machine cover anyway.

[Miho]

Classic farewell thread of an excellent poster.

Ha ha. TWO DAYS AGO, the song came up on my ipod and I thought about that kid.

[cubsfirstplace]

pretty recently padster posted an amazing video of him with this ugly old ass stripper, which was probably the funniest thing i've seen on here.

damn i just checked and that was back in november 2008

the girl was real and very depressive, i still dont get why the people who were behind this didnt get banned

what could be worse? other people on here got banned for much less

it was not even funny or anything, just dumb and low

Apart from the fact that he was a complete dick.

Most of the greatest moments listed above seem to happen when I've been away

Maybe only true greatness can happen when I'm not around.

bye. (yeah, you wish)

additional: I think the great moments for me and probably others are personal - like getting you through stressful times in life and meeting people off here.

I remember the suicide one, it was pretty intense, a joke that backfired in a way the originator didn't expect I think.
