The old fashioned ratings system would be great. Little reviews for everyone. All the girls had 100% positives, it was hilariously transparent.

I miss the anxiety I felt when BobbyR or FATSEXY would momentarily pull ahead of me as the most highly rated poster on A1. I also missed when posters went bad and all the negative ratings piled up on them.

Momentarily, lol.

I started out with 956 points, and then the backlash began. The accusations. Does FATSEXY do drugs (yes)? Does FATSEXY fly to Bangkok to have sex with barely legal ladyboys (yes)? Does FATSEXY belong to a sex cult (false, they wouldn't let me in)?

You never caught up to me, Sassy Pants, I was knocked down to your level.

FS - didn't you use to make sure you had the highest post count or something like that?  this would have been WAY back in 01 or 02.

eta: may have been most replies to threads you started.

Wish I'd done that.

JA sent me a lot of nice ones.  We used to get along pretty good, until we didn't.

And I still have no idea what set him against me.  I think it was my calling him fat with a Jabba the Hutt image.  :(

I could never compete with BobbyR's postcount. All told, he has to be over 70k in the board's various incarnations.

I did try to take a run at him. I had a bunch of posts. I think TH has overtaken me at this point, too. He may have always been ahead of me. Facebook has really wrecked my foruming game.

I think I used to claim that I had the highest post views and I would loudly complain that I had a high post views count but no one ever replied to me.

i was entertained by those posts.
 
other posts that entertained me:
 
"dude...", by Linus (?)
 
"-2", by sloth; i remember he quoted someone and replied with just that and the quoted poster got all bent out of shape.

I'm like 20th or more now - add it all iterations of the board and I still don't think I'd make top 10

I joined in I believe the fall of 2000.  I was a somewhat socially awkward 14 year old and quickly got banned for calling Janitor an asshole over AIM.  He eventually let me back on sometime in 2001.  I posted a lot those next few years(came up with some really bad efed characters) but gradually became more and more of a lurker.   

A1 Memories
The Streak
Voting for a "president" of A1 every year
The trolls: Crackhead Bob, Soldberg(who then became a hard core christian, than a rapper) Nancy, among others.
Always assuming Janitor and Gpac were the same person
Bob Ryder suing Janitor, the whole A2 deal which which I feel like some college professor studying the dynamics of online community would've loved to observe. 
Spanky - and all the posts every year wondering where the hell he went.
A1 Chat.

I'm pretty sure GPac wasn't a real person, Janitor's sense of humor was weird enough where I can totally see him carrying that on for years.

If they were one person, then it was an elaborate hoax, because I remember AIM chatting with them and having them argue with each other. So he switched and typed really fast and kept which was saying what pretty well, ya know? Do you guys not remember AIM chatting with them?

gpac was a math professor in ohio. considering i still have pictures of tom's 2004 girlfriend and denim dan's sister, i assume i would have cracked that case instead of doing work.

I have a vague recollection of a story of G_Pac saving Janitor's life, or something to that effect, at a baseball game.  This is a very vague memory though.

actually, he didn't save his life.  but he convinced himself he did.  so initially there were two, but then gpac took on his brother's personality when janitor died.  really sad story.

BobbyR! 


Clearing up the confusion:


1.  I am an economics professor, not math.


2.  I am not, nor was I ever, Janitor.  That was in fact my twin brother. 


3.  I did save his life at a baseball game.

OK if this is really Gpac, then this is  :fr:

I'm pretty sure you're to blame credit for bringing me to A1 in the first place.

I got into an argument with GPac because he was a lying cunt. He left about exactly then.


Sorry, douche bag, I don't lie.

I am Gpac.  I was here from the beginning.  I remember doing the parody of Dave Sherer's 1wrestling newsletter crap.  I do not recall bringing anyone over.

May have been Janitor. But I remember on 1Bob replying to a post that criticized the news breaking (or lack thereof) of Ryder and Scherer (who of course worked for Bob Ryder at the time). I had gotten an AOL IM that politely and professionally told me that I was full of shit for defending Bob and Scherer and said that a bunch of posters formed A1 and referred to it as "my site". The rest is history. I just assumed it was either you or Janitor, but i don't remember the name.
