I think it was 2 people Craig and Nico who started a little forum on Bravenet forum which was very basic.

;) Myself, Timmy Turbo and 300z are infamous as aggressive arguers in the past.

 

It's crashed a few times. Then we had 2 pay - now it's quieter than ever.

 

Oh and andyduff is the technical man !

 

Have I forgotten nething ?!? :tongue:

Yes, to run this post through the spell check! :D

I remember the big argument we had at splitting the forum into a General Chat section and a Tech Advice section as it all used to be in 1.

more non coherent and childish than aggressive :)

 

ok the history of the forum as far as I know...

 

Craig and Nico ran it

Nico dissapeared

Craig ran it on his own hardware, which was crap and it was also on borrowed time on the network.

Craig then bought new hardware and put it onto a better network

the hardware broke so it went on a holiday to the USA for a few months on borrowed, then it came back onto borrowed hardware at the current UK network. We are currently waiting to purchase a new server so we can get it onto its final resting place :).

 

The forum is now run by a commitee, it is no longer a forum, it is now a club, people are working hard to offer more to the members.

 

anything more to add? this is very breif.

i miss wazza pound for pound he was always entertaining and when teamed up with duffer these two are without a doubt piss funny.............nico was a good egg as well

Is it now obligatory to spell something in the last sentence of each post incorrectly?

 

Tim

 

PS Before anyone gets the arse I'm JOKING!!!!

Ahh the old bravenet forum - I remember it well! DaveW will probly have something to add when he reads it too as he was there too!

yeah, I think I just caught the end of the Bravenet bit, never actually posted on it though as it seemed to come and go depending on the weather ! ;)

Ahhh Bravenet, those were the days. Yeah I remember there was Nico, Shorty, Hairsy, Bilky, Bob, Rodders, Craig and amongst others. You're all spoilt rotten with this forum, we never had fancy stuff like PM's and rides sections. It was just the one forum and some pics of our first meet in Nottingham, taken with Nico's Kodak brownie. You had to drive your Z careful in those days, trams and horse & carts were everywhere. And everything was in black & white too!

me & duff founded "mad friday" which occoured a few times, which i found highly amusing mainly due to the fact i was spaced out on heavy duty painkillers at the time, but we got many complaints for our childish antics! :nono:

LMAO I thought they were your tec advice write ups:D;)

oh, & dont forget the time Macca threatened to throw 90% of the forum into the lake at Billing but woosed out like a big sissy :tongue: :xxx:

Yeah! But how long a go was all this?

When did the big bang go off?

 

I think some one should wright a piece on the history of the now club.

Include some of the highlights and carictors.

 

So we all know our roots!

 

Chris..

a long time ago, in a Galaxy far, far away..........................................

 

 

:D

LMAO When I saw the tears in your eyes and you plead for dryness I let you off :tongue: :xxx:

That sounds like a good idea to write something on the history, dates etc. I would like to know too.

 

Haven't been on that long really but seems like a good time to thank everyone for all their help and making me laugh quite often! I have made some excellent mates on here.

I hope I have helped people as much as I can.....and made them chuckle too....and don't forget the HOMIES!!!!

Those were the days ...

 

Highlights of our first meet in Nottingham :

 

Bob had BoVs on an auto if I remember rightly.

 

Bob had disco lights AND a smoke machine in his car

 

Nico's car was actually running - shortly afterwards it went off the road for a decade.

 

I was complimented on my neat phone holder. I was big into mods in those days.

 

That was the day when I first discovered quite how scarey Z brakes could be when I completely lost all friction while chasing Rodders through Nottingham.

 

The highlight of my day was being pulled because I left the pub sideways - after EVERYONE else had done exactly the same.

 

The write up of that meet is probably somewhere. Anyone know ?

 

Dave

LOL anyone remember the milton keynes meet? That was my first meet :D

The old days of the forum getting threatened with legal action,wonder why we don't get any more:D

erm becuase the mods are shit hot :confused: and don't let us type any naughty stuff :D :D ;)
