Your first post-(reminisce on the good ol' days)

Postby Rinoa » Sun Feb 27, 16:19 2005

I realize that some people JUST joined, so I guess this thread is geared towards our older members. How have you changed since your first post, and what was your first post? Where did you post it? Did everybody hate you?

http://spacefem.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=43766&highlight=#43766

This is the link to my first post. It's from March 19th, 2003. Although that thread did get moved to New Members, I did originally start it in Ranting, in which it was moved into Hell, and out into New Members. Everybody hated me for at least my first 6 months of existance on this forum, and I could never figure out why. That is, until I sat down one day and read all of my old posts. All I could manage to think is "God! What an idiot!!" I used chatspeak, I said the most stupid, random things ever (don't get me wrong; random is fine in the right amounts), and I had a knack for whining and feeling sorry for myself if somebody told me to settle down.

So come and reminisce with me! Come and revieve your inner n00b!!


(PS! I'd like to apologize to everybody that I bitched at as a n00b, even though most of them arent even current members here....RIP Skalle, angry-amy, opodgodie, etc....)

Let us put it this way - I'm going to link to a post I made on the NEW forum after the whole ordeal with the original forum. Therefore, I had already been at spacefem for several months (or two, whatever) and settled down a bit.

It embarasses me to go and look at these things. I can just feel how hyper I was. Good thing the weight of the world crushed my youthful spirit and now I am just a bitter and horrible person :P.

^ that's the earliest I can find.

Oh ya and MFS hated me. :moose:

I refuse to look at my first post. Oh the chatspeak! Oh the n00bishness! The HORROR!! I was just a pathetic little person who thought I was being really cool. I would like to think I have changed significantly, and if I haven't then would someone kindly slap me. Hard.

I <i>burn</i> with shame. It's exactly the sort of obtuse nonsense I loath today, and I frequently tell people off for. Though from looking at the next one up, I immediently seemed to improve, if still rather exuberant and missing the shift key. I think my first 15 or so posts are entirely in Creativity.

I don't think anyone really noticed me come in, and so I didn't really cause a stir. I never even made a 'I'm a newbie' thread. I was just a slightly irritaing new person. I must have done something right though, cuz I've ended up a mod, and not kicked out :)

I don't suppose I could even be remotely upset with you, as I have no idea that you irritated me when you first joined. So, I forgive you. Plus, you're married to my friend, this makes it all better.

I also burn with shame.

And you're lucky that you're a mod. Vega once told me that I need to be at least 40% serious to be a mod (she was yelling at me at the time), so I'm basically convinced that no matter how long I stay here, I'll never get to be a mod.


*weeps*

EDIT: *gasps* Thank you so much opodgodie!!!! *is elated for the forgiveness*

...I was Newbie of the Week. *feels left out for not having been stupid* You all made dramatic changes, came so far, worked your way up through the hierarchy of Spacefem... I've just been dormant, chillin' in the background, occasionally spouting an SAT vocabulary word.

This is my first post, and this was my introduction post.

Wow. I was actually funny once. Oh well.

When I joined, I felt an immense pressure to impress others and so I went out of my way to appear intelligent, even to the point of being pedantic and extremely critical. I have arguably improved since then, by accepting that it's not a popularity contest and realizing that overreacting is not always the best course of action, no doubt through the involvement of concerned individuals not wishing to give up on me.

I joined in 2002. i can't find my first post, but I'm pretty sure it was stupid. I was such a freaking n00b back then. I remember making a story with smilies. And the monkey icon was my pet monkey, poona. He died. Rest in peace, Poona the monkey.

Oh yes. I think MFS is to blame for beating us out of n00biness. With a big stick.

Thankyou, MFS.

Hehehh! I joined about the same time you joined, Skate-Board... I remember looking at your posts and being like o_O;;..... O_o;;.... u_u

Or something along those lines. Ah, the glories of newbiedom.

My first post *was* pretty annoying, now that I've gone back and read it. Well... my first real post, really (third post ever):
http://www.spacefem.com/forum/viewtopic ... 872#201872

My first post ever was in new members, and I gave out my real name. Eep! I'm not sure I'd ever do that now, given all the stalkers and all *looks around suspiciously*
>_>

...

<_<

Well technically my first post was on the old forums, because I've secretly been around forever. But I still hate some of my early posts on the new forum, because while I otherwise had good grammar, I had something against capitalization, for some reason known only to my 15 year-old-self.

I think my posts became less stupid sometime in March of 2003.

Also, for some reason Skalle once accused me of being the same person as barcode or something.

Zecorda and fireflyer didn't like me! :crying: And I used to have a picture of Mojo Jojo as my avatar! It was sweet! I guess I was never really a hyperactive, chatspeak n00b... Not newbie of the week material (I don't remember who won that week), but... Not terrible. I'm not sure how many people on here like me all that much, but meh.

I guess from reading my N00bie post, I put a poll in the Forum or something and DL might have taken it out...

my first ACTUAL post was about my Algebra 2 test grades when someone got ungrounded and posted in Happin3ss...

other than that, i dunno
