Yeah the stupid crash wiped away couple of hundreds of my posts. That's when I decided not to be a post whore ever again.... The servers didn't crash since (or at least bad enough for us to re-register)... Stupid servers!

I wish my brain had a refresh button so I could remember some of the epic threads over the years. There have been many great threads but for some reason I can only remember a poster named "The President" who seemed to bring much hilarity to the site.

I wanted to go over some of those threads for good times' sake but for some reason the search doesn't find anything by The President. What's going on?

Yup, I lurked for a long time- 2 years or so- and I still had a pretty rocky start. In fact, after almost 4 years of being a member, I still get reemed out from time to time. Usually for personal threads in the OT, not so much FOI stuff.

I noticed that the last page of OT is 43 and the posts are from this year so maybe it doesn't go back that far.

That's only because you have no understanding of a blue collar trade job, hate strippers and J Pold wasn't hugged as a child.

It seems daunting at first but after a while you realize that you are basically anonymous and anyone who thinks you are an idiot can't really do anything about it except rag on your posts.

I was always worried that people would think I was an idiot. Once I realized no one cared I started to post a lot more.

Then people really did realize that I'm an idiot and now I wish I could go back to being ignored.

For any lurkers, allow me to introduce myself. I'm ResAlien, a kindhearted and polite soul. I enjoy a good discourse on most subjects. I'm staunchly conservative in most all matters. I abhor the culture of drinking that seems to be so prevalent here, and look down my nose at anyone who has the filthy habit of smoking. Other than that, my posts are on topic, rarely sarcastic, amusing, or plain out of line, and I look forward to more people signing up. Oh, and always look for white text, and keep yourself on the FoI side.
