PLEASE do not post in these ancient artifacts! They are of great historical value, and anyway necromancy is ILLEGAL.

BEHOLD! The greatest treasure, exhumed after subjective CENTURIES! (Actually just a couple of years)

SEE! The perfectly preserved archaic bbCode formatting! GLIMPSE! Still-warm internet firestorms! BE BEWILDERED! In the face of memes and refrences that we in our modern era cannot comprehend!

THE EXHIBIT:

It only took five years...

I have a feeling this will work...

It sure is... it sure is.

I haven't heard about that. The subgames have always been a bit... worrying...

If only they knew about the ponies.

Seriously!

Back when Elephants were scary, instead of hilariously incompetent at feeding themselves.

It's such a good suggestion that it was suggested but a few days ago  http://www.bay12games.com/cgi-local/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=5&t=002183
  :p

Look at this young, naive, hopeful person, before their brain literally got all bruised up by bearing witness to the same thing every day for 5+ years.  Won't someone weep for their loss of innocence?

Edit:  Yo PTTG get back at me in the Reprap thread

[Lord Dullard]

Drat, I was hoping to find myself in there somewhere, since my account is getting pretty ancient as well.

Although - holy carp, I didn't realize you'd been around so long, Capntastic. PTTG and I are Bay12 Methuselahs, but you're an Antediluvian.

ETA:
D'aww, I just got a warm tingly feeling. If you go to the 'DF Dwarf Mode Discussion' and go to the VERY earliest page (1106, for me), TWO of the topics are mine. Bwahaha.

What does VN stand for? That's definitely from before my time.

[Heron TSG]

Various Nonsense. I came upon it in its final twilight, mere months before the end times. I still have access to it, but fortunately nothing of value was lost.

(Except for maybe the declaration of independence, which was kind of funny, and Dash Gunmetal, which was hysterical.)

I registered the day DF had its first public release, though I was tangentially aware of Bay12 prior to that (Armok and LCS).  I try to keep my post count around or below 2 per day, which is why a lot of people don't realize the depths of my presence here.  I'm just a happy-go-lucky zany guy.  I know, call me crazy, but I guess I'm pretty loveable.

Man, I miss Pathos.

[Lord Dullard]

Yeah, I'm now going through this thread, mainly so that I can skim through the messages whilst looking at the posters and going 'woah, I forgot all about that person, where the heck did they go?'.

ETA:
Also, judging by the 'last active' dates of a lot of these people, I'm now realizing that they've... migrated to COMPLETELY different sections of the forum than me, since I can't recall talking to any of them for ages and had assumed they'd dropped off the face of B12 completely. VN getting nuked really did cause a lot of people to disappear into the nooks and crannies (apparently including me). Which actually isn't too surprising, since I pretty much post exclusively in a couple of the upper forums + Creative Projects and General, these days.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

Man, I miss Pathos.

I don't. Dude was creepy as hell and never listened to what anyone told him.

As to be expected, seeing as we are all secretly Pathos.

[Knight of Fools]

Heh, I found my old account, Dreamer. I made that back in 2007, too.

Man, I was such an air head.

Fake Edit: Woah, I found a post where I was helping Sappho out when she started Dwarf Fortress. Holy snap sticks.

Really, no one can truly miss Pathos, because there is a little bit of Pathos in all of us. By which I mean we are all Pathos alts.

It's a pity the forum cuts off the way it does, I seem to recall the archives going back further than that, and I certainly recall having posts that date before November 4th 2007... Did this happen in that weird forum outage we had a while back?
