Since it's almost Christmas...

How about a look back in the older days... (NOTE: At that time, I was only a lurker, so anything I mention about the forums in this post was not my personal experience. The rest of it, such as issues with tags, the loli manga that was once present, etc. IS something that I remember.)

Those fellows are the first that come to mind.

And the chat speak (and the ChaTBundlesOfSticks that went along with them.) ... ... ...

Unfortunately, I also recall the lolita complex manga that used to be present. The only one of them that I even like was a full-colour incest manga where the purple-haired girl character didn't even look young.

There was a lack of tags on some manga, which caused a few scat manga to pop through (that one Tifa doujin comes to mind.) I still cannot remove those images from mind. D:

Other than that, though, and a bit more hikikomori-like users on the forums, not much has changed.

Lurked for a year before i got a account. Also jebus wasn't born on dec or even close.

How long did it take for you to "break-in the shoes" of this site?

Before i was notice by people was two years ago. I was a fag from 2 and 7 chan before that.

I mostly lurked Fakku for a year or 2 and then decided to join.

Made an account to comment on summin'. Lurked for a couple of months.

Lurked for two years before finally deciding to join.

What made you want to join, if anything?



How was IB's reception back then?

>Look back at the older days
>March 15, 2012

OT: I registered, but wasn't active until a year later.

It was just like now. As long as you know how to tread in IB, nothing would go wrong.

Alas, unfortunately most newcomers do not heed this and just think of IB as a place to get a few giggles here and there and then leave.

Boner

The community and what I viewed as fun in the IB section was one of the reasons why I joined. The SD section aslo grabbed my attention of wanting to join because I was open to read and have a discussion on certain topics.

Read the nearly invisible white text on my original post.

>Lurked for 2 hours.
>Made an account.
>Computer crashed 4 days later.
>Got it back sometime in January.
>Spotted the forum (2 - 4 days after I got my computer back)- started posting.

So in other words, you just want to know how IB and/or the forums where back then?

Just met fakku this year, when my sister showed to me .-.

Your sister?

It feels like I've missed something all these years of lurking, so I thought that a reminisce-enducing thread might spark a few memories of this site in us all. Whether as a lurker, or a user.



You must have felt pretty happy.

Yeap. Before you ask i already asked her:

"For what the hell you use fakku for?"

She said to me that i didn't need to know. It's a mistery for me until today :/

I made an account in 2010 to keep track of favorites. I forgot about FAKKU! and my original user so I made a new one. I didn't really lurk much with this account.
