You ever go to an old forum you used to visit, (remember those? Remember when those were a thing before facebook fan pages?) and start going through your old posts?

You ever go to your profile and see when you registered and think, "god damn, where did the time go"? I registered here in 2010. I can't believe I've actually been here 7 years already.

Are any forums and webpages you used to frequent still there anymore?

Laura and Gabriel arrive in the deepest cave of the castle and... they find IGA.

Never got the stones to go to any other forums. This was the first and only one.

I don't think any forum I used to go to is still active. Still, this place gives me all I need 8)

LMAO... Yeah I think this is the only "forum site" that I still use to frequent, occasionally.
The only other one that I post on ATM is an Oxford students' forum on facebook.  :rollseyes:

Occasionally I visit the Anti-Chapel forums, but none of the stuff I posted has survived The Successor's endless purges.
Also, the final forum I ever adminned still physically exists, but hasn't seen a post since 2014.

For a while I held out hope of a revival, but 2014 was finally when I gave up and realized the good times were never coming back.

How not to be a dark lord: the answer to that is a terribly interesting answer that involves an almost Jedi-like adherence to keeping oneself under control and finding ways to be true to yourself in a way that doesn't encourage the worst parts of you to become dangerously exaggerated and instead feeds your better nature. Also, protip: don't fuck with Alchemy or strike up any deals with ancient Japanese Shinigami gods no matter how tempting the deal or how suavely dressed the Shinigami is.

CVD is the only forum I visit, because something keeps me coming back.

I was in a bunch of other forums a few years ago, mainly to do with The Legend of Zelda, but I think they all died out. I also stopped going there to avoid spoilers.

I used to mod a few other forums, but those are all long dead (CV Attic, 2DGaming, a Mortal Kombat fansite). I miss the old Attic, was the first place I ever modded long, long, long, long, long time ago. Myself, Raven Reaper (the sites owner, I still keep up with him in this day and age. He's grown up with a family of his own now), Dorakyura, and Ralph (a mod here too).

Oh man, I barely remember the Attic. I think part of that was because I was never actually a member, but I lurked from time to time back in the day. Same with the Castlevania Corner.

Sad part is, I mentioned the CV Attic, and forgot the places other 2 mods, Redrum, and Master Ace (who has long vanished from the net, miss the dude as he was a good friend, and a HUGE Gundam or Macross fan).

Castlevania Corner was a good place too, but it's run was short and sweet. Forgot I modded there too.

The only place I put any real time into besides here was at the RajahWWF Forums about 16 years ago...stayed there maybe 5 years or so, I think? I eventually stopped visiting when the Asylum (the "anything goes" board) was overrun by Brit posters...not saying that's a bad thing, but I really can't relate to footy discussions. Still lurk there once in a great, great while just to see its current state. There were some horrible, hilarious things that transpired on that board...

And I went on various GameFaqs boards from time to time, but you couldn't pay me to do that now. Too many tryhard wannabe MLGers who claim "x part of game is sooo easy, not sure how anyone can have problems with that" anytime someone posts a help topic. That place is flooded with crap like that now. Anyone who can read one of their Dark Souls boards for 5 minutes without cringing is a boss, in my opinion.

The only other places I went were boring and only got a handful of posts out of me: ScrewAttack, I-Mockery, some Metal Gear forum, a DBZ message board, and probably some others I can't remember.

It's like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, but instead it's Who Wants Fried Chicken? I do.

Most boards I posted at are dead, as in nonexistent. Some are still there but they're desert towns.

I'm glad this board has stuck around, and I hope it continues to. I've been here since I was 14 in 2000 and ya bastids ain't rid of me yet!
Oh yeah, and also:
meat

Soda as well.

It's kind of depressing looking at the current state of the Anti-Chapel forums. They used to be so full of life and I spent every afternoon posting there at my high school computer lab. It doesn't feel that long ago, but it's a decade ago for me now. Now? Tumbleweeds. Someone occasionally rolls in and posts, and it'll get a response 3-8 months later when the next person does the same.
