NationStates Jolt Archive

Jolt's been having some problems lately, so I'm sure that's partly it, but all this last week I feel like NS regulars are MIA. Where the heck IS everyone? Most of the posters lately are people I don't know!!!!! ARGHHHHH!!!!! JOLT IS EATING THEM!

I'm here, and I'm sure that's all that matters, right? :p

Yes... Jolt is eating them... *wipes mouth with napkin*

I'm here. Of course I'm also not here, but that's just what the FSM says so I guess I'm not here then.

I think alot of people are abandoning NS for the real world.

I'm here, and I'm sure that's all that matters, right? :p
Actually, that IS rather comforting...hi!:fluffle:

You have been invaded.

You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

What are they...nuts? Why now of all times? WHY NOW!!!!???

Hey Sin :)

Hows tricks? I thought you were abandoning us? Couldn't keep away, eh? ;)

I've been locked out of the forums for almost a month..

...And this is my triumphant return. TADA!

Halloween.

I'll be fine as long as the mods don't decide I'm having too much fun again.

Nope. My exciting new project fell through (surprise surprise), so here I am, angsty, bored, overstimulated and underworked. Real world? Overrated!

I'm the third incarnation of a poster who first joined in early 2003.

You ARE reaching your threshold point...you're usually deleted around Cabbage Patch notoriety, aren't you?

Huh? Who the hell are YOU? :p

Do not fear, Sinuhue. I, Ruler of the Multiverse, have deemed that it is better for them to... shall we say, depart for some time. Rest assured that they are perfectly safe. While they are trapped deep within my impenetrable fortresses in a distant unknown location, they will be fed well, clothed, and so on. However... unfortunately... they have no internet access. This "Jolt" that claims to run these forums is merely a... front for my servers.

They are all safe....safe.....saaaafe.... *hypnotic voice*

I guess you don't know me but I've been on NS since April 2003 :p

Uh...

I am your new king! Bow before me!

It's a lot of work typing forums.jolt.co.uk/forumdisplay.php?f=1227 everytime you want to log in these days. People are lazy. That's why the use NS instead of a real life to begin with.

Well, I get all confused when people change their names. Especially when they don't let me in on the change:) I even think about them differently...take Whispering Legs, now Sierra BTHP...same person, but for some reason I can't reconcile the two as being exactly the same poster...

This incarnation is lasting him a lot longer than usual. I think because of the Jolt problems, the moderators have been too busy to delete him again. ^_^

:( That's not too good. Hope you can find something that will work out for you.

Hey, who needs the real world when you have us overly complicated people here on NS General to amuse you?

I have had many incarnations (I said three but that was a mistake - actually more). I've been a NS player for a long time. I don't post so much.

I just bookmarked a thread and used that to jump in each time.

But yeah, I can see this as a plausible explanation. Maybe...

I just type in "forum" and autocomplete does the rest. :)

Which brings me back to the issue of "where the hell is everyone"? I haven't seen Jocabia for ages...but it might be because he keeps going into those relgious threads, and I dare not set foot there...

I've made spam queen advisor a few times before being deleted.

Well considering how easy it was before. You just randomly clicked on an thread that sounded interesting in the side menu. Posted a random post and used your search option to find what you were actually looking for.

Well, I get all confused when people change their names. Especially when they don't let me in on the change :) yeah, but I doubt you knew my former nation (Draztonia) either :p
I kinda took a break between summer 2004 and winter 2005 ;)

Really? The original DC got to about 3000 posts before dying out. Drunk Commies Reborn was deleted at 2,992. Jesussaves lasted only 284, and I don't even know if any of Temporary_nations' posts were saved. This one's still going strong at over 4,000.

Yup...lax moderation. :D

Ah, law school. Cool. That's what I plan on doing once I've finished my Modern History degree, at the same uni I'm at because it's one of the best in the UK for law...assuming everything works out in various parts of my life. Not the least being finances. Good luck with it all :)

Yea, I haven't seen him in a few days, maybe he has developed one of the things they call "lives" :confused:

As a real answer to your question, and not the psychotic "Bow before me" statement...

I'm just another guy. I talk alot and say little, but I'm fun!

This IS life...the rest is just eating, sleeping, and other assorted bodily functions.

Nope, I know I made Spam Queen Advisor before. I posted a thread once asking who the spam queen was upon becoming her advisor. Maybe they cut the post counts afterward by purging all the spam I've littered this forum with.

Hey, I pick these things up somewhere, ok? :D

I also compile the lists of top NS posters, when I can remember to. I'm currently about #98 or something, but that was back when I had 5600 posts last week. :eek: ;)

Now I'm probably in the 80s, having passed Euro, Fris, Kat, and several others who had far outnumbered me before and.... wait, what am I talking about?

Overrated:)

Truer than you might think...NS is one of the few places I can actually be me.

Hmm...I have just over 5,000. Wonder if that would be enough to bump be into 100th place?

If it is then I will have to stop posting...100 is a cool number.

No. The last time I checked, the cutoff for 100th was 5,700 posts. By now it's probably higher. If you want to get into 100th you'll have to make a trip to the spam forum or, something like that anyway.

Give me a couple of weeks ;)


Looking down that list...where has Neo-Anarchists been lately?

Then you are wonderful! A la Circle Jerk's song...that suddenly just popped into my head...
Ha, I'll have to take your word for it :p

I remain steadfastly convinced that most people here have no idea who I am, and wouldn't miss me if I upped and left.

I can't believe I'm #18!!!!!

And I can't believe Nadkor is only a little above 5000????

I haven't seen Neo Anarchists in ages:(

Well, you are entitled to that opinion, but you're wrong. We lub you!

Well, one or two peope might notice, but most people probably wouldn't.

Not that it matters, I'll continue going around posting the usual crap :)

Hah but people really don't know who I am.

I am here, and that is what matters for the time being. Soon followers of me and Our Lord of Indoor Furnishings will sweep across the boards, dusting and assembling all in our path.
Until then you all have one last chance to enjoy the low, low prices of our new dinette sets! They only cost $299.99 and your IMMORTAL SOUL when you act now! So don't delay!

Hey, that's only £170!

Seems reasonable enough. Where do I send the cheque?

Neo is...somewhere. I don't know where Neo is, actually. I haven't seen her all too much either.

Send it to
666 Claremont Lane
Abyssia, Hell 07300
And be sure that you send your IMMORTAL SOUL in the envelope with it. As of this moment we don't accept Postal IMMORTAL SOUL Orders to do previous paper work errors.

I'll get that sent as soon as possible :p

I finally got a regular job so I can start chiselling away at my crippling debt. That's why I'm not around as much anymore. My time on NS has grown so sparse that I've been passed by Eutrusca for 2nd place on the top poster list.

That reminds me, we're now accepting bets on how long it'll take Eut to displace LP as #1. ;)

Current estimates are down to 1.5 months.

Does LP even post anymore? I rarely see him around.

I'd take that action, but Eutrusca frequently toes the line with moderation and already has 3 forumbans to his credit. It's entirely possible he'll be deated before he passes LP.

I think alot of people are abandoning NS for the real world.

Not me. Who needs the real world? :p

evidently. i mean, LP left... LP... the #1 General poster left! to get a life no less!

makes me angry just thinking about it ;)

I couldn't log on for almost a week. But yes, there seem to be fewer of us, and even fewer of those of us that matter;)

Wow, back up. LP left? How the hell did I miss that. When? Why? When?

dunno he just seemed to stop posting one day and nobody's seen him for at least a month now :(

either that or i'm wrong (entirely possible) and i've just managed to miss his posts for a month

Sad. So many are missing. TIN, Neo, LP, Tink, I haven't seen Colodia or Kanabia for a bit. I'm only partly here due to lack of internet at home. (My posting rate has suffered greatly.) So many missing. I say we should find them and fluffle them into submission.

send them fluffles and bribes, yeah :P
but kanabia is still very much here (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=451791), but i do miss the old days (as per my perspective) like back when TIN and peechland, not to mention tink, were still regulars :(

A moment of silence...... and a couple bottles of booze......

I was wondering the same...granted, I'm not exactly a prolific poster, but I do atleast read up a bit. Considering I got here just as Tink was leaving, I guess I've only been around a short time. Still sad to see alot of the greats missing :(

It's funny...I never really 'got' that whole thing.

Guess I just arrived too late to have a clue what was going on.

I'm around here and there, but I doubt all but a select few remember who I was back then.
