I could be wrong mike, but I think that's Sico. I do agree though, previous nick information is very sucky. Personally, I'd love to know what happened to some people.

Tribes was a class game. I don't know why nobody liked it.

In fact I'm going to see if I can locate myself a copy.

I saw boards mentioned in an inflight magazine on Air France a few weeks ago, can't remember the name of the magazine though. When I joined there was only one university forum (UCD from what I remember), the DHTML menu was along the left hand side and MS Apps/OS sticks out in my mind for some reason. Ah its brilliant how big things are now.

Haha, classic. The best thing I saw on an in-flight magazine lately was an anti-virus program that Chuck Norris was advertising "Not our kids. Not on our watch."

When I joined [in Janurary 2002]...

Pfft, newbie. 13 year old Ibid had it goin' down nearly a year before you.

...why?

If I ask them, they might ask themselves. And I certainly don't want them thinking.

I have noticed the fans thing as well.

I seem to have missed this, can you point me in the right direction?

Tar doesn't count, what s/he dreams up in her own head doesn't count.
