Go read some of those threads in the 2003 Archive....

Some of them are pretty funny.....in a looking back sorty way.

Where did all those people that used to post here go?

SealClubber · Jun 14, 2003

I posted a few times

It seems we lost quite a few threads with the crash; I think basically all the ones that happened recently. I dropped 2,000 posts so it must have been a fair chunk of the threads I've posted in.

to introduce a new topic, can you believe it was so long ago that the forum crashed and was down for so long? What did all of us faithful BuFfers do with ourselves??

Hedge · Jan 3, 2004

Some of the threads in the archive should be moved to the BUF classics for their eternal value in humor.

nominations?

Sir_Brizz · Jan 4, 2004

well I know this one is already in the Classic, but Hedge and I read "Poop in outerspace?" thread by Morety today, and got quite a chuckle out of that.

I'm curious, does anyone know where the screenshots of the Nalis giving hot carls went to??

Not a nomination, but reading this speculative (pre-2k3 release) Link Gun thread is pretty amusing.

Heh... the link gun ended up being a real disappointment to me. Along with the ion-painter and some other weapons. Well, thats what UT2k4 is for, I guess. Out with the old, bring on the new!

hal · Jan 4, 2004

The only disapointment is that it isn't used very much.

I manage to link up with people the most in Geothermal. That might have something to do with the fact that it's one of the closest weapons to the flag.

Might be a lesson in there for you mappers?

Sekhmet · Jan 4, 2004

Link's a pretty cool weapon when you can track well with the secondary.

Selerox · Jan 4, 2004

Green seems to be the in colour...

I'm always amazed that hardly anyone uses the link primary, as there aren't many ballistic weapons that do 30 damamge per shot

Sekhmet · Jan 4, 2004

Most people hardly use the link, and the primary shots are pretty easy to dodge, unless you're very close. But up close other weapons are better imo.

TossMonkey · Jan 4, 2004

I made some pretty wild speculations back before UT2003 was released. Like the "static meshes will kill the mapping community" post. Dunno if that one still exists though.

As for the crash I dropped about 5,000 posts and ended up with about 200. I think Pete did it on purpose.

Sir_Brizz · Jan 4, 2004

that was exactly what happened to me!

Bazzi · Jan 5, 2004

poor little spammers

TWD · Jan 5, 2004

I lost several thousand posts too. In fact the majority of my posts were made in that year or so that got lost. The numbers that show next to my name aren't anywhere close to the real ones.

I'm still here...

CrazyCougar · Jan 5, 2004

I miss the days when the post counts were hidden. It took the emphasis of post counts...

TWD · Jan 5, 2004

I really don't think it changed anything. If I saw someone I didn't know I'd just click on their profile and see it. Ya never know if some inf player got lost or something.

!!! ain't that the truth
