Title: I know this isn't reddit
Post by: Generic Eric on April 16, 2014, 10:11:29 pm
I lurked on the old boards and only a few will know that if you've followed my posts because I didn't use this screen name.  But that's not important now.  12 years ago today, I registered on the new board. 

Lots of fun guys.   :cheers:

Can someone please translate what he said, I've read it twice and got no clue what's so ever.

I looked on my profile to get to a post.   I was/am being nostalgic.

Congrats, Eric. Ark's gotta Ark.

12 years is a long time to stay interested in any hobby. Juggling only lasted me about 4 (but I still pick up a set of clubs every now and then).
Fencing only a couple years.

I've been at my cab for, oh.... damn.... That long  :embarassed:

 :)

Congrats.  You lost me on the old board new board part.

Your post count is low for 12 years.  Quality versus quantity eh?

Ironically, I hit my 12 year mark just a few weeks ago.  I too lurked for awhile before registering and I only did it then so I could send a PM to order from Ponyboy.  He still around?

And even more ironically, I just logged in over at PD for the first time in months and had a PM from March that said it was the anniversary of when I registered and they gave me a ticket for a free torrent.  I have a TB uploaded more then downloaded so it doesn't matter but I still thought it was cool.

Maybe on our anniversaries here, we could get Tapatalk access on Android for that particular day?  That'd be pretty sweet.

I don't think he posts much.  Usually when he has something to sell.  Doesn't mean he isn't reading.  Last active on April 14 2014

Back then, he would post with new products/replies in his thread but he wasn't that active.  Wonder if anyone still orders from him?

I think Ponyboy sells through Paradise now.  I bought a few of his leaf switches to try out.
