Topic: CVD forums 'Awards' function, lol!

[P/\/\\/o]

Lol, where the heck did I get those 'awards' under my avatar!?  Since I'm new to the new forum system, I don't have a clue how the page gave me these and how, *GASP!* well it knows me! >:-D Haha, I bet Jorge gave them?

Anyways, kudos for such a fine feature, it rubbed my ego a bit and more importantly, made me smile! 

Any of you newer kids  have fun with the 'awards'-function? I really need to sit down one day and educate myself on all these changes, since if I never do, I feel that I'm going to miss out some fun to be had!!!

Someone's messing with my awards. I still haven't gotten The Oldie, not to mention the coveted "The Douchebag" award.

Hmmm, the mystery deepens! 

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

There's no douchebag award! xD
The closest is 'trollmeister', though.

There's no oldie award, either (though there is SuperOld Dungeonite, which people who have been here since the olden EZBoard or Forumplanet boards).

These awards are not automatically given by posts or anything (they're not membergroups, which are given out this way).  Someone has to nominate you and then I approve of the nomination.  I don't award people unless this happens (otherwise I'd be handing awards willy-nilly haha).

Santa Count, since when have you been posting?  How far back do you go?

Paavo, there's an award thread up on the top of this forum, staked up, which gives you the details.

No, I meant as in "he's been inside so many women and made them wet and warm inside they should call him The Douche"

The time or registering on my  profile is accurate. Well, the actual date was fixed since the forum switch reset it, but I assume it was checked from some database as I, like most people, wished for the original date be placed back. I certainly didn't provide it. Either way, it was September 2001.

I think the awards are cool. In fact I think the respect system is cool too.

[TheCruelAngel]

Fun fact if the old dungeonite counts for ForumPlanet then I do too!

Hmm...I had something interesting to say about using the web archives (wayback machine) to confirm old ForumPlanet users on CVD, but I can't seem to come up with the URL at all. Oh well! 

EDIT:

Oh, here we go!

Though it seems the earliest snapshot is from 2004, but it's still a snapshot of all the old Dungeonites from at least back then! Man, looking at the site from way back in the day is a trip though.

Maybe it's because I've got Asperger's, but I remember some of those vividly. That time there was that court case and the way you heartwarmingly supported the N-Gage 

Still got the thing? If it isn't already a rarity, it's on the road to becoming one.

I remember vividly being assaulted by the security in a Smackdown show!  'twas fun, I deserved it! LMAO!

I still got my N-Gage, QD might I add, but it's not being actively used. It never was that much, though. It was the beginning of mobile gaming, before it got mainstream with the iPhone. BUT, I own the only three dimensional (polygons, bay bay! ) Elder Scrolls game, ever relesed for a portable system, for t3h N-Gaeckk! Now that I can hold in high regards, if nothing else.

Jorge, I nominate A-yty aka Santa Count for the 'SuperOld Dungeonite'-award! He might've registered and thus been around even before my time...but by not much though, I reminice? We both registered in 2002, right, A-yty? Obviouly, I've been around since Circa 1997, but it doesn't really count.

Anywh00, is there a something of the likes of a 'controversial ICVD member'-award? Since I had a long, controversial, yet lovely 'career' in there, too!  And P.S. I've been there secretly for awhile now, again!

P.S. There NEEDS to be a 'heavy smileys-user' and 'a heavy editor of one's posts'-awards! Somebody make them happen, at least the smiley-award! I deserve and want it!

It was 12th of September 2001, possibly even a couple of days earlier when I joined. But definitely that month and that year. It was one of the mods or admin(s) who recovered the date and I assume it wasn't just a guess. I tried checking myself from that Archive link, but I can't remember the username I had back then.

It was either late 2002 or early 2003 that you registered at CVDF. I remember being here for about a year and it was soon after you joined here that LV began.

Sounds about right.

Congrats for Santa-Count achieving a well deserved 'oldbie'-award!
