Well what is there to say; it is the end of the year. A time to reflect on the past year and wonder what the hell we were thinking. This passing year has had both good times and bad. It has also had times when you cannot help but say: ‘WTF?’ and I cannot blame you for that (hard as I try) because it is human nature to do so. Well not really I just wanted all of you to feel better about yourselves; damn hippies always questioning, always high (in BKO anyway).
On June 30, 2005 TvTome was shut down for good. Those that had not already come to Lyoko Freak do so at this time. Those that do not come stay at Tv.com. LF’s big draw, and one of the most active forums at the time, was BKO. More posts were made there than in any other part of the forum. There is also the less well known forum ghost, the first registered user. He apparently made a few posts. Those posts are either gone or I am too lazy to go and look for them. It is most likely the second option since I am way too lazy to go looking for them. For the first month or so LF was a small community of mentally deranged individuals, yours truly included. Then it started to grow. Because of this BKO was locked so that only certain members could have access to it. It was also around this time that the games forum was created. This led to me and Rodri bashing each other in the balls with wrenches for a while.
As time passed LF grew and grew. At one point there were over 200 members. Out of all those members only about three were ever banned. These members were Enki, Paige (or Aelitagirl I can’t tell the difference) and Oboy. They were banned for the only reason there is to be banned from LF. They were all being kind of a dick at one point. But there were also members that became invaluable to the forum. For example TB3 and his brother. There were of course more but these two created the Let’s Talk Tech thread which I am proud to say I am a part of. In this thread most of Lyoko’s mysteries were solved. Then there was of course that BKO thread that was recently revived. God help us all if anyone ever reads it. They will send us all to a mental institution. Especially TB3 and I am sure most of us know why.
Over the past year a lot of us have grown as well. The biggest example is Little Vili. He started off hyper and crusading against spam, hoping one day to be a moderator at the forum. He matured and is now a reasonable person and no longer fights spam like it is a terrorist organization. Then there is our wonderful admin Eyrnn. She was a shy person in the beginning but in making LF she was able to turn into a crazy person like the rest of us (unless she already was). She also was able to create one of the best websites on the net. Hell people trust LF more than Codelyoko.com (or that is what I hear at least). That should tell you how great this site is. Then you have her best friend Morgan who started off a little scary, she made me piss my pants (j/k). But she turned into a genuinely nice person who I am proud to call a friend (if she doesn’t mind, lol). I think that cover everyone…well I am sure that it does not but if I were to keep going I would never get to my homework (not that that would be a bad thing).
Well I am not sure what else there is to say (that I can legally say anyway). This has been a rollercoaster year never going in one direction for very long. It has seen season two of CL but not the prequel (damn you!!!! must have prequel!!!
). Now we must wait it out and hope that this coming year is better than the passing one. And remember always, always laugh at DONKEYS ON HEROIN.
Just kidding. But that was pretty good. A nice reflection. A+! lol
). Im also starting to find out what kind of person I am, and what kind of style Im interested in. I hope with this, that I can clear my mind of all this social anxiety (which I think was a result of not knowing myself). Im sure there are maaaaaany things that I missed both good and bad, but Im not going to take the time to remember them all right now.
That is not cool and you know it. lol
