Anyone remember the URLs? One website I remember and want to see if it's on Archive dot org is where monster_party, capnjiffy and some others resided. Knowing them it was something like "dongs."

https://web.archive.org/web/20060919...ndsnotice.com/ I think
Then there was the one I ran for awhile with someone, I forget who and what the URL was but it was on something other than vbulletin and had a dong pressing a button gif for the background
also fuckingnastyshit or whatever, and ladymajoria
and of course Zoints
and honorable mention of satori_everything's dinosaur whorehouse
I think that was fcrunk.
plot twist: casual discourse is an LWS spin off
plot twist: no shit
Technically it's a successor forum, considering that LWS died in the span of a day when Neil shut it down and CD formed in response. Before CD was a forum owned by grr1d.Quote:

Then Flames returned on LWS so the forum was inactive for a few years 'till late 2009 when I revived it to run forum games. Since Squee was the root admin of the forum and hadn't been online since 2005, and due to some other factors, I eventually set up eRegime which has a forum area for registered users called... Flames VI.
Thus Flames lives on sorta even if there's like one single person from LWS (i.e. WiReS) other than me on it.
Edit: Also back in 2005 I saved a thing from Fo' Dolo; Maade, who I invited to LWS, wrote a big thing about Gamer's Haven sucking due to an influx of new, largely uncontributive figures.

Prepare for a long rant that has nothing to do with games, it's all about Gamer's Haven in this thread baby!
Prologue:
A long, long time ago, there was a great paradise for gamers. It was a place where everyone was equal, and spoke the same languange. The few underaged ranting bastards that were plaguing this paradise were soon banished and shot behind the barn. But nothing good last forever, for a plague was roaming the galaxy. The plague was called h4x0r kidz or just moronic asshole as we called them. Tho the galaxy screamed for mercy, we were sure that we remained safe from the plague. Until now...
The Bloody Dawn of New Age:
It all happened so quickly that most of the people living in this paradise did not even realise what hit them. It began with small problems, threads started to fill up with poor posts, the legendary Console vs. PC wars happened. But still, we were sure to remain safe in our Haven, the last place in galaxy that has not been infected by the plague. We were still living in our dream. Posters were banned from this paradise and threads were trashed. It all still felt so safe.
Watchout! That's a H4x0r kid!
Soon, it was all around us. The plague had reached our safe haven and no one knew how it happened. Moderators were lost, great threads burned down to ashes. At first, we thought that it was only temporary, that the moderators would soon strike back. We were wrong. Our beloved king, mr. Binjured disappeared. Soon other moderators appeared, but they were already been infected by the plague. They were offering a truce between the people of Gamer's Haven and h4x0r kidz. The walls around Gamer's Haven were shattered, and those moronic bastards started to swarm all around the place. The prisoners of war were let loose and new laws were written. This was a sad time for Gamer's Haven, for it had lost it's meaning. The last safe place for gamers with some intelligence was lost..
Do we still have hope?
An old friend of mine came to me shortly after the fall of the barrier. "Do we still have hope? Can the paradise raise again from the ashes of the war?" I started to wonder. Could we still survive? Were we doomed to walk the burned streets of our lost paradise for the rest of our lifes? Can we still call this place our home?
"Yes!" I answered. "We still do have hope, but we have to be strong." I poured a glass of red wine for my friend and continued. "We need to be strong my friend, and we can not let the h4x0r kidz completely destroy our paradise"
My friend looked at me, lowered he's voice and asked me. "Can we still trust our moderators? Has the plague taken over them?"
This was a tricky question, for I had no simple answer for it. The moderators surely were acting strangely. You didnt even need to speak English in this place anymore, you could also use the 1337 sp33k that the h4x0r kidz were using. Those bizzare words scared me, "lol" they said, "OMG WTF" they screamed. Was that really a languange that human being could learn?
"My friend." I said. "We have no other option than trust our moderators, they are the kings, we are the people."
My friend looked at me for a while. A h4x0r kid was screaming "WTF WTF OMG!1!" outside.
I continued: "But trust me my friend, if our paradise in here is truly lost, we can build a new one somewhere else."
The End
I think many people think in the same way than my friend and I do. I have talked with Regret, and I want to belive that this is the right way. But I still can not trust in it. Too many great threads have been completely ruined by those "moronic bastards", too many posts end or begin in "lol" or "wtf omg!1".
Moderators, please dont ruin our paradise. We are begging for this place to remain the same.
- Maade
ps. If you cant speak English (there is no word such "lol" or "omg" in English), stay the fuck out of this thread. Thank you. It's not that hard to hit the spacebar or enter once in a while, and I understand that pressing shift key and some another key can be too much for your intelligence to handle. If it is, just stay out. Dont even look at this thread.
Youre mrdie, right? I know all this, it's CW.
Yes... that's why I mentioned you in my post.Quote:
