What's your biggest accolade on boards?

    If you were to close your account right now what would your biggest accolade be on boards?
    Take DeVore for example, well, apart from starting the website it would probably be his depression thread.
    Pighead has his comeback thread.
    Yours might be anything from a good thread to a funny response that will personify your career as a boardsie.

    Mine takes me to the deepest darkest hole to ever exist on boards. A place that caused posters to close their accounts and beyond.
    I'm talking about the most notorious forum of all time on boards...

    THE THUNDERDOME.

    Now banished for eternity from this site, but it truly was a place where the boardsie with the biggest cajones won.
    I'm absolutely privileged to have the last ever post in The Thunderdome.
    It really is my own personal piece of boards history.
    You can see how the Thunderdome ended right here.

    Anyway that's mine. Being the last poster of all time in what was definitively the most notorious forum that has, or will ever exist on boards.ie

    What is yours?
    Maybe it will turn out to be something you post in this thread.

    Boards accolades! It might not be the Nobel Prize but you're seriously missing on how notorious that forum was on boards!
    You need to read the feedback thread and what went on in the place before it was closed down!

    I'm fairly sure Teddy you can forget about Thunderdome notoriety. I imagine this thread will be your legacy instead -

    Far too lazy to go fishing through the feedback thread, what happened in a nutshell?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,223 ✭✭✭orangesoda


    The time I started the big orgy, 20 men and women gathered for it.

    small point - this will occur in the future though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,606 ✭✭✭toastedpickles

    I think if my biggest achievement or any achievement is measured on boards....

    We'll that would be too depressing to contemplate.

    Real life wins....wins

    Probably by others, but on a personal level, this is sweet. It's sort of like I conquered that forum almost.

    Nope well aware of it, and it's legacy and the storms it's caused.
    But the internet is a different place, it's no longer the wild frontier it once was.

    I think I got post of the day twice. Only one of them was worthwhile though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,689 ✭✭✭Karl Stein


    If you were to close your account right now what would your biggest accolade be on boards?

    It's not an accolade so much as a benefit but I started a thread in the Cork City forum around this time last year looking to get a game of 5-a-side soccer. A few people posted also looking to get a game until eventually we had enough to kick off a completely new game of people who never met each other before!

    It started off as just one evening a week, grew into two evenings, and is now at three evenings. We now have approximately 30 players playing over three nights, three sets of training vests, had a good night out from extra money collected and have another due.

    It'll be a year of kicking an inflated bit of leather around a plastic pitch soon. :)

    keelanj69 was by far the greatest poster in the Dome. I hear he is still slaying his fellow Domers in their new arena.

    RIP keelanj69
