FX Meister · 10-05-2006 06:53PM

I started it and then I got bored and sold it to those other guys who just rebranded it and called it their own.

Slippin Jimmy · 10-05-2006 07:35PM

I would just like to thank the people that created it and keep it up and running. It is really a brilliant site. I enjoy spending my time on it. Thanks a mill.

White? PFFT!

Black and Green more like!

KTRIC · 10-05-2006 09:28PM

Back when Boards was started there was no internet. You had to send off for a floppy disk and load it up manually on internet explorer 2. If someone posted something interesting you would get a supplementary disk in the post with the update.

And you complain that its slow now !!! :rolleyes:

Actually I have money left over in my 3V card. I will donate it, but I don't have the code for it to work. I deleted the txt message:o . If I can get the code then I will give whatever is left over.

In 1996 a crack nerd unit was sent to prison by a coding court for a crime against unix they didn't commit. These men promptly cracked a maximum security server to the Dublin underground. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as hackers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the Boards Team.

Without Quake and Tom and John, Dan etc., we wouldn't be here, so the only way I always see fit to thank the lads for their hard work is to always subscribe for a year.
Its only €50, and you get extras.

Ruu_Old · 11-05-2006 01:54AM

Subscriptions are great

oh the rewards for them are fantastic too. You also help keep the admins heads from rolling, with the whole cocaine habit and having to borrow money from the...oh ive said too much
