Title: Welcome to the NEW BOARD.
Post by: jer on June 10, 2014, 01:54:18 PM
Long story short, the entire database for the old board was lost, and there were no backups.

Yes, it sucks to lose 10 years worth of shit, but sometimes it's nice to have a new start.

You will have to re-register.

We can rebuild.

this theme sucks.

if anyone can find a better one on the SMF website that is compatible with version 2.0.7, I'll consider it.

that reminds me of one time when i was out in the tunnels with my buddies when i was 15. we were all drunk and we had been there playing acoustic guitar listening to how it reverberated through the cement and shit when we heard a noise from some dark fucking nightmare corner. what followed was some chud shit, there was an old ass lady carrying a baby with these like long ass fucking teeth. anyway, they were down to chill they were attracted to us from the music. they said nobody had been down there in like 8 years. it made me wonder where the baby came from. we got pretty drunk and went to 7-11 together with her, all my other friends were scared of her and also the cashier was pretty scared of her from what i remember. does anybody know anything that causes a baby to grow really long teeth? these things were like 3 inches.

I HATE IT!

it takes forever for me to get used to stuff.

when the new years happens it takes me like 6 months to realize its a new year. i never set the clocks back or forward on the designated days (thank god for technology to do it itself). i just want things to stay they are forever. me, the love of my life, laying in bed, holding each other forever. and every know and then i tip toe up while shes still slepeing kiss her on the forehead and see if anyone gotta rise outta my clever retorts. but you went and changed it and ruined everything you sick son of a bitch!!

jkjkjkjk. we are a resilient bunch, we PIXers. don't know what quite unites us. we don't all listen to folk punk. most don't actually. so what is it? some strange fate that we all stumbled here and found camaraderie like the breakfast club?

i love that icq usernames were just a random succession of numbers not a single person could ever remember. I used it a ton to talk to my friends in Canada before they all moved to msn messenger... somehow AIM never took off for a majority of them.

i had about two friends with icq. the only people with aim i ever talked to were people i met in chat rooms when i was like 13 and my mum had aol. all my friends had msn. all of them.

The thing I remember about AIM is needing to switch names because eventually every time I logged in someone would be trying to talk to me.

But... now I spent 24/7 logged in to Google chat, and hardly ever talk to anyone? What's the influential variable here?

Oh man, just two minutes ago I was trying to find where Facebook hid the setting for who can send you messages (I wanted to make sure it was set to anybody sending me messages, so PIX Fest kids can contact me even if we're not friends), and found out that now, instead of saying "friends" or "friends of friends" or whatever, anybody can send you messages. There's no way to turn that off. Instead, we apparently have two inboxes -- one that you see notifications from, and another one you have to go to your messages to find. The only thing you control is whether only friends' messages go into your real inbox, or messages from friends and people Facebook decides you might know. Oh, and also people who pay Facebook. Those get sent into your real inbox no matter what setting you marked.

On top of that, there were a bunch of messages in my "other" folder from people I knew, that I would have wanted to see if I had known we had a secret "other" inbox.

Ughh, Google+, why did you let this happeeeeen?

Just be patient, Ryan. Mr. Tightpants is still posting (although now he is now "Baggin' Saggin") so it's just a matter of time before he spews some bullshit out that becomes my signature.

Also, I see applesandonions is back, though I'm skeptical as to if it is THE applesandonions. I guess we will know soon enough by way of whether or not he starts saying offensive things and then tries to excuse them by saying he was high. That was his thing, right?

Hello PIX board. I didn't post on the old board but I'll post on this one. I felt encouraged by the 'fresh start' mindset I saw some people having online. I was pretty intimidated by the old board. Not that people are intimidating on here, I just find large groups where everyone seems to know each other intimidating regardless. Anyway this is just me saying hello...

Woah, I'm impressed that you were gone for a year and remember that his avatar was different. My mind completely didn't notice, it just went "okay, guy in underwear, gun, accidentprone, gotcha," and moved on.
