Heh - I remember we all signed up shortly after they took FB off campus just to play Scrabulous. I also remember when we all sent each other Gmail invites when that was starting. I often get asked how in the world I got such a short gmail address.

Stump and Woodsy are doing the family thing, a couple other old maggots whose real names I know but whose handles I have forgotten (Pete, Paul) are as well.

I still miss Tonghands the most.

wasn't there an actual chat room for a while? i seem to remember having a brief exchange with nohillsnearby.

speaking of which, i wonder what happened to nohillsnearby?

**Tippster** · 12-16-2018, 11:21 AM

Yeah there was chat, not run by TGR tho. Fun as hell.

Nohills is still in IN playing with her horses.

**wyeaster** · 12-16-2018, 11:24 AM

good for her. i always enjoyed her presence.

**iceman** · 12-16-2018, 12:24 PM

Huh I thought the chat was part of the site, you sure about that Tipp? That shit was hilarious and an unbelievable time suck, it's pretty much all I did for quite a while there.

**Tippster** · 12-16-2018, 12:46 PM

Yep. Likwid ran it.

Likwid yeah... That chat place stole a fair amount of hours in my life too.

There was a whole separate forum too. Run by someone else. Really miss that place.

**iceman** · 12-16-2018, 03:20 PM

huh I either forgot that or never knew it. I still see likwid online from time to time on a New England boating forum, he tends to piss those guys off.

**Danno** · 12-16-2018, 09:53 PM

I still sometimes feel like a jong and I've been here for almost 15 years.

I seem to recall that he had some www skills, and that he was involved with chat. He later posted as Free-Range Lobster for a while, around the time he dated Bean Dip. Then he was Likwid again, then gone.

God Damn Chat! I remember the Maggette Calendar- that endeavor took off in a hurry! Estwing hammers (how the fuck did that start?). And for one brief moment, we could start changing our names to those of others on chat, with predictable results. I posted as Aldo. Someone posted as me. And someone posted as my dog.

The fun thing about chat is that you could say that you were anyone. It got pretty messed up!

**iceman** · 12-16-2018, 10:52 PM

Basom was really good at chat. He had flow.

When was all that shit, like 2005? I don't even know.

**Viva** · 12-16-2018, 11:58 PM

Yeah, late 04-early 05, methinks.

**wyeaster** · 12-17-2018, 12:06 AM

i got here in dec 2006 and chat was still happening some time after that.

Yeah I was on chat some with Tipp and Hugh and BeanDip not long after I found this place and if it disappeared when Likwid did than it was a couple years after I showed up at least. I wonder if BeanDip is still EMT'ing in San Fran. She was at the first Gordy Camp I went to along with Arty and AltaGirl and Mr. AltaGirl. I remember sleeping at Rotorheads the night after the camp ended because there was a huge storm rolling in and everyone in our condo wanted to ski the next day and we didn't want to get interlodged up in the canyon. He told us all these crazy stories of flying Apaches in Baghdad.

So many names I'd forgotten about in this thread. Who was the douche who claimed to be a Hollywood screenwriter (I think?) that flamed out and got driven out of here? It happened right around when I first joined. I just remember his avatar was Karl Hungus with the big scissors from lebowski. That was some funny shit.

You mean Telefunken? He did something in Hollywood, I thought it had to do with music but I'm not sure. Claimed he had Grammy's. Or maybe Emmy's. So full of himself. And got such an epic beatdown. But it took time, and he didn't go quietly.

**Joey Joe Joe Junior Shabadoo** · 12-17-2018, 05:00 PM

That's it! It was music, I had forgotten he claimed to have a grammy. This was the first forum I had ever really hung out in and I remember watching his flame-out when I first showed up and thinking "This place is awesome!"

**dunfree** · 12-17-2018, 05:01 PM

ifh chat disappeared 2010? 2011? sometime around then.
