I think I was level 12 before the redesign which was my altime favourite, I was planning to stay on it. Then the new levels came in and I went up to 18. And now here I am at 21 after a long break.

I'd be level 42 if I'd never missed a deposit, which is a shame, since most of the 30s look shit and I'll be glad to see the back of them....

in a couple of years.

lmao thats a noob level now but it was pretty hard to achieve back in the day. passing level 9 was a bitch.

did you have that saved on your computer or was it in an archive or something?

Wow, only 1000 posts. That must have happened well before I signed up. :o I was able to find a screenshot of myself from 2004 and DAMN! I find it quite scary.

Man where are you guys getting these pictures from

Some time around spring 2004, judging by my post history, although when posts are deleted it slips a bit, but that's about right.

Also.

Wait, in spring 2004 I made my 4000th post.

:o

Usually people keep a folder where they have there stuff stored.

I have a NG's folder stored on my email as well as on my PC.

lol, true. I noticed how much you posted yesterday and only a few days ago, you got 6666 posts. Kinda like myself back in 2005.

Eventually he will slow down by a huge margin and lose interest.

The only mod that has slowed down by a really small amount is BBM which is no surprise lol.

I've slowed down now that I don't need to post in as many threads as possible, now that I don't have anything to prove to anyone, and most importantly, now that I can't really be seen posting in borderline spam threads since that kinda suggests to people (and other mods) that I think the thread is okay to post in.

But it's not just posting.
My BBSing in general has been on the down-turn this summer.

I'm not too fussed, it does leave me with awkward moments after posting for a bit where I just sit at my computer thinking "Now what do I want to do?", but apart from that, eh, it was bound to happen at some point or other.

So much for 'getting an early night'. There's a party going on in the flat upstairs, and it's keeping me awake :/

I would go and join in normally, but after last night's shenanigans I feel like chilling out tonight.

heh, I know what you feel like.

I've done nothing today, just sat around. Watched a couple of DVDs and things... just had no energy.

Hopefully I'll feel perkier tomorrow.

Yeah, I managed a trip to the shops and had to register, but I felt like crap for most of the day. A few of us went down to the SU bar earlier to see if we could watch the Arsenal match down there, but they didn't have the channel that it was airing on apparently. Didn't feel up to staying out anyway so we just shuffled back to the flat and chilled out.

Hopefully I'll feel perkier tomorrow.

I can only hope the same. Didn't drink much today though, so there's no reason why I shouldn't feel fine in the morning ;)

Oh really? Had no energy? I've got loads of it and I hardly find a way to use it except annoying the neighbors bu punching the concrete walls as my punching bag!

Hopefully I'll feel perkier tomorrow.

I know you will!

Oldest one i can find. 2000 posts and Level 11...

I remember level 11... I was just about to leave it behind for level 12 when the redesign was launched. Never liked it all that much TBH, but hey ho. One of the reasons that the current design is much nicer: if you don't like your level, it's not going to take absolute ages to get a new one.

Im only just under a month from leveling up again, and then i think that will be it for me and depositing :/ im getting bored of this bronze glove.

For me it takes a little over 2 months to level up now. Obviously it increases by a few days each time you level up, but it's not so long that I'm phased by it. I quite like most of the upcoming levels too, so it's all good.

The sliding scale for EXP was another thing that made it seem longer. Really hope they don't bring that back when Pimp hits level 60 -- although I don't see why they would, because then they'd just have to redesign the level system yet again in a few more years, after it got out of control again.

Heh, just like the whistle system, i always wondered why i never got any further from a Bronze whistle after flagging review after review all the time.

Good times i say.

A bit more nostalgia for the records, my time when i had 1337 posts, finally past level 9. Oh, and what my username used to be.

Now this is going waaaaay back. This is probably late 2002, lol.

old, crappy username

Oh, and congrats on pass and level up Mendou.

I remember the old old old BBS design... dont think I have any screenies stretching back that far though

The past is the past! You don't need to remember it I guess! It'll just bring back bad memories!

I see you've never listened to any of the NG vets.

"Oooh, back in the golden years the BBS was SO much better"

y'know

back when dobio wore turtlenecks and HOT PISS!!!1!1!!!!! was awesome and all that jazz.

Sometimes, I do... sometimes I don't! It depends on the topic!

"Oooh, back in the golden years the BBS was SO much better"

Yeah, I heard about it a year ago, until the person who told me got deleted! Many things were legal in the BBS then!

OK.... I think I don't get it!

RabidEchidna made his name through posting shocklinks anywhere and everywhere. At one point he was placed on a ban for something like 6 months.

And then he was made a mod!

6 months? WOW! Reminds me of someone... namely a user named BitchWeed! Does this RabidEchidna still exist now? Or does he have another identity?

The guy was demodded in around 2007 or 6 because he showed the mod lounge to somebody, I think and he still stuck around until well, now.

So yeah, he's still here, with the same alias.
