Well we do have the old ver of forums so start there
I think he’s talking about the history - Like what happened at the start? [1]
Like what users and what it was like back then
Correct me if I’m wrong ↩︎
Thats what im saying. Before this forum page we had an old ver so this user can start from there if they can
No, it was that just one flag was needed to delete a post. So people used that feature and spam flagged, so josh moved to discourse.
add the time josh said use a repeater
Oh, this is going to be hard for me, since I joined late in '24, but I will try my hardest to help out.
Ohhh. I was never a part of those forums and I guess the game of telephone failed me.
The picture takedown on January 23rd
Oh. We can’t forget the April '24 purge of art requests and the May '24 surge of them.
The raid from yesterday, can’t be forgotten.
Eh, small raid, nothing in comparison to the bot raid.
Still, we can’t forget that one, we can’t forget either of those.
Oh yes you can start at the hacking incident
The surge of new users in early or late '24, can’t remember which one it is.
I joined around Feb 20, 2024 i think i was underage that time but since i turning 14 like in a day I really not underage anymore but I don’t remember anything from like 2024 I might be wrong but i think there was a thumbnail request ban or something before the Art category
Blackhole leaving, or am I mixing things up again, I have such horrible memory about things that happened in my early days.
Yeah, I think that ended sometime before I joined. Also, the mass leaving of forumers.
history of fourms? i can provide some info.
I was there when wolftechnology, and blackhole were around before BH was a admin. it was when fourms was called a “dumpster fire of off topic” it def felt like it.
another point was when i left, there was the hypocritical age. where people argued a lot. i wasn’t there for that.
later i came across the era where there were tons of mod/admins. a lot got banned. i think slime was one. and got demoted
I saw the bot raid. it was a sad sight to see the forums getting raided like that. but then again i wasn’t there for that either
that’s as much as i saw in a basic talking of it. if you want more info just ask me and give me a little bit of info you know to help me spark memories bc this took a while of thinking to remember some of this stuff XD
also question do you know where @WSG may be?
… there was a post about this already
Yeah but that was about users, not the entirety of forums.
Anyway, the BEST thing i can remember is the thumbnail artist rise* in late 2024 like august in something ir more
*or just the thumbnail request wave
Also the bots in November-december last year
