Remember when I had a 1 in my name?
Remember when Stryke was feared among newbies and regulars?
Remember when being notable actually meant something?
Remember when there were only 5 notables?
Remember when we had our Shaneo hunts?
Remember when we didn't have all these fancy tags and no was bothered about it?
Remember FAD?
Remember when general chat didn't exist?
Remeber when someone broke the rules they were banned instead of a nancy warning?
Remember er-no?, Wookiee?, SonicRav?
Remember "Log in the Creek?"


RIP Ukchatforums.com

Dedicated to all the old skoolers out there.

Adios.

And even back then people were moaning that SR wasn't like the "Olden days".

The loss of the forum GAD didn't help.

Oh the archives, how ye sadden thee.

No matter when it is, the forum was always much better 6 months ago.

Newsflash, I've seen little change since I've been here.
All the same old stuff happens.

"omg spammer!"
"stop spamming spammer"
"it wasnt like this a a few months ago"

8 months later:

"omg spammer!"
"stop spamming spammer"
"it wasnt like this a a few months ago"

6 months later:

"omg spammer!"

Well we all do. We're just sitting here patiently hoping it will return to it's former greatness... We all know that's never going to happen, but yet here we are.

How can you people not remember "Log In The Creek" - it was good.

And Wookie Monster was in the "Web Design etc." forum not too long back.

I think I came to the forum as SR was on its way down. It's a bit of a sunken ship now.

None of those old schoolers who made it what it was bother coming back, so the angry-faced newbies run riot and nobody rips them enough for it.

Most of all I miss Wookie, he sent me a CD.

I've been here 4 years (quite sad) and everyone has always looked back with rose tinted glasses.

It was never that great, though GAD/FAD were always better. And a few better quality of posters were more prominent.
