"The complete history of UKchatforums.com"

I often think about the history of these forums, and how things used to be. That's not to say they've declined in quality over the years, but as with most things, you keep them going long enough and you'll find people complaining that things ain't what they used to be.

Anyway, I got to remembering some of the good times while bored at work today (a regular occurence) and yeah, it might be a bit sad, but some of the memories really did make me smile. UKchatforums.com must be my most visited website ever (still my homepage) and despite it just being a collection of poorly-designed .gif images and text-speak, sometimes it genuinely manages to make me laugh out loud (LOL).

So... in the spirit of one of my Shiznit lists, I want your top UKchatforums.com moments of all time, from throughout history - it can be favourite users, brilliant moments of realisation or just your favourite threads. I'll get us kicked off with a few memories that brightened up my day.

THE BELLDANDY SAGA - I've never had so much fun berating someone over the internet as I did with Belldandy. Probably still floating around somewhere under a newly mysterious (very probably Manga-related) username, Belldandy was NEVER WRONG. Even if he was, he wasn't. And if he really was, then he'd run away and not come out to play, until the next time he was wrong. It came close to bullying at a few points (I used to get his emails) but it was coming from both sides: Goaty, Light, Pandy, myself and others (all anti-war and common sense) versus the one man righteous army of Belldandy.

The Belldandy saga reached a hilarious conclusion, when on one of his many mysterious reappearances under another nick (HALO Fan), he was sussed by the lot of us and nevertheless proceeded to dispute it for several months, despite have all the curt mannerisms and blind flag-wankery that good old Bell had. It stopped being fun when we finally saw a picture of him on Special Observe, then realised our physical name calling was disturbingly prophetic.

There have been others, but none as more fun to bait as Belldandy.

If it's the one with the large mammal, I request (demand) a cut

Wasn't that Slaveunit? Something about him and his girlfriend wanted to ask a good friend of hers if she would join them in a threesome?

I remember that thread as well :)

I've mainly been remembering things that made me smile but I remember someone did a serious post on rape (Light?). A certain moronic member posted that they didn't understand why women made such a fuss about it as it was after all only sex. I think the same poster then went on to say something about already accepting that they would be raped.

I went ballistic (and would do again) but was a good poster and didn't bypass the filter to get my feelings across.

Has to be one of the only threads that I really had an opinion on.

Goatboy: I just found a topic with your email address posted in it and I am now demanding cash and chocolate from you to stop me giving it to Crossbob.

]:^D

I can remember a poster coming on here and talking about him having a threesome.

Or something like that, and it turned out to be rubbish.

Can't remember his name.

I remember when I first came on here. I made my account as Dan.
Thing is there was another Dan (later known as Dan_2K1) and back then people could have the same name (I think that changed when Ant pretended to be Tony one time...), so my first appearance on these forums was as an imposter.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned the FogStories yet... I guess that's going back a bit too far. Ant hasn't been on yet, Grix isn't around... what's Meka's excuse? Oh, and Snuggly was once [email protected] who used to come in and tell us to keep "on topic" and to keep chat to about games! ;-)

Other than that everything's been covered by everyone else.
Forest Fan's first appearance was a good time to be on here, and kind of prepared me for when I went to University and met the Christian Union...

Was Sheepy already a notbale when he wrote that topic? Somehow I think so, because he would've got banned otherwise.

I vote for Sheepy.
In his defence, he was only about 14.

Christ, was Sheepy always a spastic?

I joined just after the IB and Hev saga, though it sounds like it was eyeball burstingly funny.

My best memories of this place;

- Taking Bell apart in debate after debate, then watching him cry fat tears of blubber and rage.
- Spending about 4 months systematically obliterating Gump's facade of religious humility.
- Arguing with Skarra and actually getting some decent arguments out of it.
- Watching Celeste descend into a morass of wailing hypocrisy.
- Spending a month arguing with a characature of a Sun reading Kilroy watcher, only for him to suddenly switch on his brain.

Jesus, they're all arguments...
