Let's bring back some fond memories

I actually remember a bloody lot from the old Legacy days.

I remember there was a legendary thread with inane ramblings that was countless pages long. I think it was called the chit/chat thread or something to that extent.

I remember there used to be a lot of members creating a big drama about leaving, only to come back shortly after.

At the beginning I had an avatar of Vegeta drooling.

The shift from dbzgtlegacy to forumlegacy.

I remember how to spell Puntuatedus Anus' username, although I'm only 98% sure I'm correct.

I remember Idz once wrote a fanfic of sorts with the legacy members as characters and I was a pope.

I don't want to say popularity contests, but I have no other title for them. I probably only remember those because of how well they fed my already overlarge EGO...

I was a girl at some point.

There was a guy who knew every * little detail about DBZ... Piccolo Daimao or something? I remember he was later replaced by someone else.

Didn't we have plans for a big Legacy cruise?

Now it's your turn.

The "Holy Thread" was entitled something like "wHo oN tHiS foRuM wOuLd yOu MoSt LiKe tO MeEt." I'm pretty sure it went off topic within 5 pages though. It might have been something like 100+ pages by the end of it.

The Paragon was the most infamous for having a dramatic exit, though I don't believe he ever actually returned?

PD was indeed the crazy DBZ encyclopedia.

Here's some memorabilia for you.

I remember a lot of *; I just can't be bothered to regurgitate it right now.

i still have a pic somewhere (i think you drew it kiri) of a bunch of the members as anime all standing together. i had a t-shirt on with some saying. in actuality i used to wear those shirts all the time haha.

i do remember talks of a cruise. and i remember Winduril being the second coming of DBZ trivia gods if I'm not mistaken. I wish I knew how to get in touch with that guy, or half the people i used to know for that matter. Even seeing those sigs brings me back, i forgot completely about Bearded Jarl, Hakutz, and Dakkaroth. Also forgot about Anus. Anyone know where those guys got to?

What was the Paragon incident? Either I wasn't there or I forgot about it.

I remember the big shift to forumlegacy as well, good times. And the transition from a DBZ-based RPG into a new RPG that unfortunately didn't interest some people. I enjoyed it though. I probably wasn't a very good writer at the time sadly.

I also remember getting in very heated debates about what was filler and what wasn't, and whether or not it should be counted in an argument about who would win in a fight. I remember either FF or someone else (i'm looking towards mr. t) pretending to be a chick and trying to get me to having cyber-sex with them hehe. And of course I do remember the Holy Thread.

Lastly, does anyone have a copy of Idz'z fanfic? I don't think I'm in it but I would like to check it out again if possible.

Oh these?

I sent the link to the forum to Windy on Facebook; we'll see if he responds. Lacorpa might still have Hakutz's contact? She said she'd message Link.

I have a couple of old emails from the RPG roster, though I've actually tried to email them before and most of them bounced. DragonTrainer and Twitch the Bard were the only ones that responded. I could throw them the link to these forums too, though I don't believe either was ever very active outside of the RPG. I also have a few emails that people left in my old, old website's guestbook that I could check for validity, I suppose. I think Alpha is semi-active on deviantART, and perhaps Slash Trunkz as well? Shi no Tenshi used to be there, but probably isn't anymore.

Paragon just left a very stuffy departure message. It was pretty short, actually, but it might have been remembered for its pretentious eloquence.

I don't recall the fanfic you're talking about, but I have the pages of the comic Trunks3DX and Idz collaborated on, as well as an interview Idz did with Chibi Bliss?

There are a ton of things that i remember including making signatures for people and avatars.

I remember trying to keep the forums running with people constantly trying to hack us.

I remember the music threads and the arguments that constantly arose.

I also remember the giant image of everyone and wish i still had it ( ill look on some of my old hard drives and backups i had ).

I know that I will be bringing back a lot of the forums that I can remember and some new ones.

There is a lot planned, but honestly im balancing gaming and many other things all at once so its a bit loopy in my head.

but stick around and you will see some amazing changes around here.

haha yeah those ones kiri. The comic is what I was thinking of, but maybe they speak of something else? I remember making banners and avatars for people as well, although admittedly I wasn't that talented back in those days. Working with DBZ cels and making sigs was what prompted me to learn as muh as I could with Photoshop though, and start making show posters. Self-taught only got me so far of course, but I'm always learning new techniques. Hey Kiri you should help me get in touch with Windy, I've been racking my brain trying to remember his last name and track him down, he and I go way back.

Yeah, I remember you and Windy being buds. We'll see if he replies to my message about this place/if he turns up here. If not, I'll get you his email.

that'd be swell. I haven't talked to him in ages. I've been trying to get a hold of Sam too. I think he was SSJ5Broleta on the forums. He was a good friend of mine too. I'm not sure what exactly happened that made us lose contact, but I think it was just that I didn't have a computer for a while and never had access to AIM. MSN was the way to go people, let's not kid ourselves. :P I see Hakutz did join up, that's cool. Good to see you man.

I remember a lot of late-night battles and/or training sessions with Wind, our characters were badass. The RPG was so much fun, I miss writing.
