That was me, back in the day when you could have a thread heading and sub-heading -- likely the only enduring thing I'll ever do in my life.

On the same note, anyone know who did the following pic:

There was a signature copying phase going on. I think it started with people copying res's signature, then he told those people to f off and get their own, so, then the fonz (i think) created the painted flaming c and then everyone started copying that and putting it in their sig's as part of their names.

What is the average amount of time spent on this site daily by regular posters?

That is a question that I'm a little afraid to ask.

It also had to do with the fonz getting even more pissed that people were taking his sig....Res was pretty relaxed about it so while he got a few copiers the fonz got more thru his reaction. (At least that was MY motivation for awhile....) Plus I think the folks who copied Res' sig were fans of his sig while the fonz' copycats were more about provoking reactions. (altho I don't claim to be an authority on this...)

I just wanted to be part of the "in" crowd.

Why would a hard core Canucks fan like Bingo start a Flames website?

Surprisingly, although canuckpuck.com is taken, vancouverpuck.com is actually available.

I admit that he was one of the more entertaining posters around here. What I want to know is how he was able to return for a day? Did the server switch have something to do with it? And how did he know that his account was un-suspended? He must still be addicted to CP and checks whether his account works periodically.

I'm tempted to buy it and just put up a single page with a Flames logo...

One thing is for sure: he/she didn't discriminate...I think he/she pissed everyone off at least once.

But I have to admit, I did chuckle at some of his/her posts.
