    1. @ceruleanspark I do now and then, there's useful TXTs there.

      Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 07:59:37 UTC from web
      1. @nerthos I mean the actual discussion forums the site has. I used them a lot when I was young.

        Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:00:36 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
        1. @ceruleanspark Oh, I never used those. I guess I'm a couple years too young.

    2. @ceruleanspark I go back for nostalgia purposes sometimes.

      1. @yodelerty I do when I'm playing games for nostalgia purposes.

      2. @yodelerty The gamespot merger ruined everything!

        1. @ceruleanspark gfaqs 9 forever

          Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:01:56 UTC from web
          1. @yodelerty Do huh? O.o

            Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:03:19 UTC from web
            1. @gervase Making fun of old GameFAQs users because it makes me feel better about myself even though I definitely acted like them back then.

              Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:06:06 UTC from web
              1. @yodelerty Everyone starts somewhere. :P

                Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:08:10 UTC from web
                1. @gervase I spent a good 4 years actively on there so yeah. XD

                  Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:10:37 UTC from web
                  1. @yodelerty I never stay anywhere that long and remain active. xD

                    Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:11:39 UTC from web
                    1. @gervase GameFAQs, some random InvisionFree board, and here are really the only places I've been active for any extended period of time.

                      Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:18:45 UTC from web
                      1. @yodelerty I lurk a lot, but I've never stayed active anywhere. Everywhere seems to die off just after I join.

                        Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:19:44 UTC from web
                        1. @gervase There's always a constant stream of new users coming and old ones leaving here so hopefully you'll find it a nice place to stay for a while.

                          Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:21:26 UTC from web
                          1. @yodelerty This is the first pony community I've ever been a part of, so hopefully. :D This is the only one that has a legitimate social aspect. Everything else is just boards of crap.

                            Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:22:46 UTC from web
                            1. @gervase Yeah, this place is nice even if it is basically just a chat room. It really lets you get to know everyone else, though.

                              Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:27:40 UTC from web
                              1. @yodelerty Still seems like organized chaos. I fear straying away from the page on my account where every post is. :P

                                Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:28:59 UTC from web
                                1. @gervase Eh, I never use anything but the public timeline anyway.

                                  Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:29:46 UTC from web
                                  1. @yodelerty Well everyone has their own conversations I'm being linked to, so I'm confuse. :/

                                    Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:30:35 UTC from web
                                    1. @gervase confused* ><

                                      Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:30:54 UTC from web
                                    2. @gervase Oh, the "in context" pages? Those are just there so people who want to follow a conversation have easy access to it.

                                      Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:33:47 UTC from web
                                      1. @yodelerty It doesn't help that the hierarchical threads are difficult to follow. They need to take the Tumblr approach and add corresponding borders.

                                        Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:34:55 UTC from web
                                        1. @gervase Unfortunately we're bounded by the limitations of the software.

                                          Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:39:16 UTC from web
                                          1. @yodelerty What software do you use?

                                            Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:39:54 UTC from web
                                            1. @gervase I'm referring to the site, which uses StatusNet.

                                              Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:40:18 UTC from web
                                              1. @yodelerty I'm such a n00b. ><

                                                Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:42:19 UTC from web
                                                1. @gervase Dude most new users don't even know how the reply button works

                                                  Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:44:27 UTC from web
                                                  1. @yodelerty I'm very self-critical. :P

                                                    Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:44:57 UTC from web
                                                    1. @gervase In terms of new users, you're pretty non-newbish. Just give it like a week and you should be familiar with pretty much everything on the site.

                                                      Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:48:23 UTC from web
                                                      1. @yodelerty I think it's because I've wasted a sufficient percentage of my life on the internet, so I'm pretty aware of how things work. :P "da arrow mean respnd!!!1!!oneonetwo!1!"

                                                        Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:49:53 UTC from web
                                                        1. @gervase Good. Good.

                                                          Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:51:28 UTC from web
                                                          1. @yodelerty XD

                                                            Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:51:59 UTC from web
                                  2. @yodelerty Is there any user left who uses personal?

                                    Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:30:47 UTC from web
                                    1. @nerthos I do; that's what I was referring to. :P

                                      Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:31:17 UTC from web
                                      1. @gervase But I fear getting away from it.

                                        Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:31:30 UTC from web
                                      2. @gervase Ok, you took the place of those who left. I personally preffer public.

                                        Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:31:51 UTC from web
                                        1. @nerthos I'm so confused. ><

                                          Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:33:08 UTC from web
                                          1. @gervase It's always like that the first day or two. You'll get used fast.

                                            Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:33:35 UTC from web
                                            1. @nerthos Get used? O.O

                                              Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:34:00 UTC from web
                                              1. @gervase As in, the confusion will go away and be replaced by understanding.

                                                Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:34:58 UTC from web
                                                1. @nerthos OH! "Get used to it." :P My bad. I hear "get used," and I think of someone taking advantage of another for their benefit.

                                                  Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:36:32 UTC from web
                                                  1. @gervase Hahaha no, that's why I'm here. As long as I remain a mod, I won't allow that on this site.

                                                    Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:38:25 UTC from web
                                                    1. @nerthos W00T! My first suscriber is a moderator! # :D

                                                      Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:39:34 UTC from web
                                                      1. @gervase Not that big of a deal. I'm basically the new guy in the job.

                                                        Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:40:45 UTC from web
                                                        1. @nerthos How new?

                                                          Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:42:08 UTC from web
                                                          1. @gervase Two months or so.

                                                            Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:42:40 UTC from web
                                                            1. @nerthos More experience than I have. :P So the point remains.

                                                              Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:43:13 UTC from web
                                                              1. @gervase Lol

                                                                Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:43:22 UTC from web
                                    2. @nerthos I use it a little, since I subscribe to off-site users as well

                                      Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:31:51 UTC from web
                                      1. @neurario You have a point. I think the last time I used it was when TOP was just banned.

                                        Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:33:10 UTC from web
          2. @yodelerty I'm tempted to increase the character limit on here just so I can post LUEshi

            Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:06:39 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
            1. @ceruleanspark What's LUEshi?

              Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:07:51 UTC from web
              1. @gervase ASCII art of Mario riding Yoshi which used to get you instantly suspended from Gamefaqs boards if you posted it.

                Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:08:34 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                1. @ceruleanspark Sounds interesting. O.O Why would that get you suspended?

                  Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:09:58 UTC from web
                  1. @gervase a trend where users would start a topic with a "real" looking title and then just post LUEshi instead of actual content. It got way out of hand after that.

                    Tuesday, 23-Apr-13 08:12:08 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
                    1. @ceruleanspark Internet, you never cease to amaze me. x.x
