I just did some remembering. Not only was there an Arock (May the fuck be upon his face) but there was also a Crock. I forget if he was ever here or only on the Other, now defunct Boards like Full-Auto.com and Pre-Ban.com Oh...the famous and Infamous names we remember with smugness and nostalgia. View Quote c-rock was here and on pre-ban, not sure about f-a. He was a Chicago guy, met him at a shoot once. Decent guy IRL. Had a bit of an anti-cop attitude online, IIRC. |

you guys sure talk a lot.... View Quote I know I'm the worst. Does 9 years count? ETA: 47-48 posts a year haha. I don't get how these people have been here a year or two and have thousands of posts. I check in here at least every other day to laugh at GD and see gun porn but. You learn more by listening than talking. |

Yep, It's been awhile. Obviously I'm not a prolific poster LOL.
I keep to myself and just watch the circus from afar. |

Anyone remember when Eric (May He Rest In Peace) the Hun was the first member to break 10k posts or how he always signed his name like that with something in parenthesis and the sign? View Quote Had a discussion or 2 with Eric back in the day..Always the gentleman even if he didn't agree with you |

And honestly, I've met north of 130 members over the years |

View Quote That was the era I started lurking here, it changed a bit back and forth, the next major re-design skin/function was IIRC around 2004 ish the Penis Logo site was here with NV Green at top, and continued to near the Obamalypse. |

Back when I came here to learn more about AR-15s.
Learned a lot about red dots, ammo, and mags. Then I found GD. And then the dummening started |

I come for the news reports (it's generally faster reporting here than on the big networks) and stay for the trolling and arguments.

View Quote I've saved untold amounts of money on here due to the help of other members. My fridge went out years ago and I fixed it with a cheap relay after posting on here asking for help. The guys told me exactly what was wrong with it and it's been going ever since. |

So long ago. I lived outside Albany NY went into a gun store looking to buy a Remington 700 in .308. Got the gun then went back to the to the shop at least 3x a week instead of a bar. Stayed sober but was much poorer. I think it was HiramRanger that told me about this site. My wife and I went to dinner one night when Goatboy and Ed Sr came to town. HiramRanger and a few other people. I had a stroke in 2004 and it screwed up my memory. so I cant't remember any details.

Been here since the old board. Started a new account with a new handle when it was brought to my attention that my old handle had ahh..ummm..other interpretations. It is not open for discussion so don't ask. In the meantime let me invite all old timers to get foing and pet your pony with the mall ninja, eat a shower cookie with Arock, dremel your M4geries barrel and throw it down the driveway.

As I'm waiting for Tonight Debate to begin I'm recalling one of the 2004 Presidential Debates.
Back then Arfcom was stuck with a 100 page limit. The Threads filled up so fast there were many Parts to it. Pardon me if I recant the choice and opportunity to look up the Threads in Question. |
