1. Actually playing games.
2. Knowing at least 50% on a server.
3. No-one bitched about their graphiics card/modem/connection because they were all crap anyway.
4. Noobs who brightened up the community by being idiots.

If I'm really honest I must add that I miss the fact that people used to go on 5000 word essays as to the exact nature of the gayness of <whoever they happened to be a loggerheads with>. Had some good laughs there to be sure. Now it's just "your (sic) a dimwit / fascist / daily-mail reader / hippy / <insert buzzword here>

Me and ECA had a massive argument on BW. It lasted for weeks. Then we both got bored.

I do still enjoy disagreeing with him but I actually am quite fond of the git now.

23) When TdC, Wazza and I used to take it in turns to reply to every thread several times a day.

I have no idea. It was quite brutal at times but I can't remember what it was about. I'm the same when I argue with Samm. Not that I'm saying you are the mother of my child OR that I may sex you tonight if you are lucky and don't whine at me as soon as I get in from work.....you know.....not THAT like Samm.

:fluffle:

Some of that is simply down to not playing though. I tend to find a server, if not ours, and play on it for a bit and get to know the people, some of whom tend to be ok, and some who arnt. Same ol same ol tbh.
Then I go playing there when Im drunk, and get banned :(

I miss shoot'n'surf and to a lesser extent, TPF. Some good times indeed at those places.

I miss the forum pre-DAOC.
