Goodie, I hoped you (or someone) would start this.

Lego bubbles- one day after the change over there were these huge "online" bubbles that looked like lego blocks, we got excited but then they disappeared.

MeaghanandMichael

Yeah but were they better than tit avatars?

nda_roxybabe

I miss having no ads on the sides

Nah, tit avatars win because they're....funny

JessAndTrav

Dude, I miss the drama that was brought on by catching a DD.

That was where over half of the fun was.

I like having the badges more than the bubbles, only because it's easier to tell how long someone has been around for.

MeaghanandMichael

Post counts.

BLUE BALLS.

fffmaid.

zippityb

Oh, this is TK related.

I still pine for Ecto Cooler.

nda_roxybabe

I liked blue balls, I mean, they were BLUE balls. Whats not to love?

I'm forgetting a lot about how it used to be

Even when there was a double (triple) post because multiple people caught them. They were still hilarious.

Swinging...I take my daughter to the park all the time, but swinging now makes my head hurt.

Making up dances with my sister and performing them for my mom

Oops didn't realize this was TK related. Sorry...

MeaghanandMichael

Well, I was going for knot version, but other shiit is still awesome!

NKOTB. nft.

They need to reverse that whole DD rule. It made it SO MUCH FUN.

I also sort of miss the drama that was ALWAYS getting stirred up between P2 and Butterflymbca.

I liked ffmaid!

nda_roxybabe

I miss ffmaid too.

Miss Courtney, I took the wrong interpretation of "swinging" at first.  :  )

I miss Get Smart (the TV show), seriously dating myself here but I loved it.  I now have all the seasons on DVD and watch them repeatedly!!

I miss summer vacations and riding my bike until dark while eating funpops.

I miss the Old Navy commercials with Magic the Dog and Morgan Fairchild.

MeaghanandMichael

I miss when Beatles and East would come around, you know, like 3 weeks ago.

I loved when bolding always worked at when you could see the last response when you searched for posts.

HAHHA Jbs, I love it. Although we have not nearly had enough good, "show me your..." or PIP polls on the board lately.

I also actually like the advent of anonymous clicky polls.

deepcovejackie

Waitaminute...there were blue balls?

Night_Sprite

I also enjoy the anonymous poll option.  I never got a blue ball.  Le sigh.

ah yes, back in the day there were five blue balls next to your name instead of gold, platinum etc.

It depended on the post count of other people whether or not you got one but I believe 20k posts was the first blue ball?

deepcovejackie

Sorry, did you say 20,000 posts?  Holy man how long did that take?

I will have to take back my knot love for you now. :P

I didn't realize this was knot related.

Okay. Constant bannings.

3 day waits to be able to make an account.

ricksang

Deepcove, it takes about 2 years :P

MeaghanandMichael

Night, you must have lost posts, right?

I mean, it depends on how long it takes. Look at Mery. She joined a long time after me and has way more posts. But look at Ricks, she joined at the same time and has way more. There are plenty of people who have less too.

I took a big break to just my Boston board at the beginning of 09.

ricksang

Oh! Little bubbles that let you know if a knottie was signed on or not!
