"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.

Wasn't me, I liked your spoofs. Plus he was even more irritating than me.

I enjoyed the Lamarkian thing too. I explained to him what it was at once point, but he seemed to think I was wrong despite me having a lecture on it earlier that week.

I e-mailed Snuggly once, like Erza. But only because he caught me out posting the same review for two different versions of the first Lord of the Rings DVD. He still gave me a GAD for both of them, though. At first.

Ahahaha, I vaguely remember the emails. That passed an afternoon.
"They'll have a litter of fat hateful spawn who will steal tanks and punch each other in the muzzle"

IB i s guilty of going out with a woman the size of a small mountain range.

"They should drop her on Iraq"

IBi s guilty - never have I seen a person become so utterly unhinged, bashing his flippers against the keyboard whilst jamming toy soldiers up his ass and crying, a long rope of snot dangling as he howled against the injustices of the world.
And I didn't feel one iota bad about it, because never had I met one so utterly devoid of the ability to admit fault.
"I'm not Halofan" says Bell
"No you're not, I am" says Goatboy
"..." says Bell, knowing he can't admit he is now without looking even stupider.

Or, as Snuggly mentions, IB admitting to statutory rape with a co-worker he gave a lift home to, only for his girlfriend to hove into view and tear him apart for our entertainment. Specifically the tank-driving and grenade claims.

Or Snuggly telling me I could chose a GAD per month upon being a Notable only to say "hahaha not really" and me deciding to return the jape by rolling out the "offer and acceptance" terms of contract(I knew A Level law would prove useful one day) until Snuggly hid and Grix tried to shut me up by googling for legal reasons that applied to cattle ownership and land disputes.

But Bell still rates as my fondest memories, purely for a post about trying to get laid at a Pokemon convention I wished I'd kept for future use.
Oh, and Log in The Creek - Feral David Hasselhoff's "evil white afronasty"

Talking to him was like trying to talk someone down from a first floor window ledge.

I think I remember Shadow Dragon or something, but I never thought he might have had a secret, passionate relationship with you, Snuggly.

I see why you quit, now, Snuggly.

Utterly brilliant.

I remember the old days. The "My Dad... just caught me fapping" by FFF was hilarious. I also remember when a few people's nicknames were changed to pink.

Being made a pink monkey for saying 'ass' (SR said it first!).

Doesn't affect many other people other than me Asher and DW. But it was fun.
