Haha yeah Enos was definitely best at it, though I do remember the joy I felt when I was allowed to DJ occasionally.

Depending on how far back you're talking, I always remember political threads. The difference was, they were actual debate threads instead of a few people posting links to blog sites every 5 minutes.

I remember in my first couple of months here staying up all night on the forum. I guess none of us had a life then, because you'd literally hit refresh and there would three or four replies in one thread. The paint threads were the best, some real funny stuff got posted.
 
I also remember the failed "POST HOT GIRL" threads that were always locked within the first 5 pages, no exceptions. We got one of those at least once ever couple of months.
 
And there were lots of political threads that went on for 5-10 pages. The problem is that over time we've all gotten older and kind of molded into basically the same political ideology (OMG HIVEMIND), so it's pretty much down to just the entire forum VS FE.
 
Back in the day I remember all of us arguing from twelve different viewpoints. The best was when Peter / Susan / Bruce joined in, that would drag a thread out for days. Nowadays it's kind of like preaching to the choir. I'm not a hardcore conservative right wing nutjob anymore, and the same can be said for the hxc liberals. So you post a thread, there's nobody to argue with.
 
Plus, we don't get near as many new people any more. i can remember when Frog Man, Rofl, etc joined. I don't even know who the newest forumer is (in T&O anyway) now.
 
It's kind of funny, if you chronicled the forum you'd go from nonstop bickering and arguing / shock humor, to dating and drinking, to graduations, to life troubles, and now to everybody just kind of settling down into their lives. Next-FORUM FUNERALS. WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE.

I think the fact there was even a point to actually make a yearbook shows how different the sense of community was in the past.

It's pretty nuts. I feel like I know so many weird little details of people's lives on here.
Especially PBC'ers.

I think we all just grew up and started having more responsibilities, which negatively impacted our free time capacity.
