There were some good times. I remember Deachead (i think) who was one of the very early creators/moderators of Wake sports forums. I think he still posts, but rarely. Also, Kent deserves a great big thank you from all, allowing and encouraging his Rancho da Nada to become the Wake sports forum.
He was posting on the politics board just the other day.

Quite a few of those still post at least occasionally.
And Bandwagon Boy.
Tibor and Bandwagon Boy were both done by Dan87. I have a Tibor rant on a hard drive, somewhere...and yes, the Buffy, the vampire killer threads were inspired by Blucas. The best moment in the then history of these internets was when Tibor started posting on some site devoted to Buffy (Boofy in a bow to Tibor). The teenage girls who apparently infested that place couldn't figure out what was going on. "What the fuck is a Daemon Diken?"
RobertTrentJones always cracked me up. That was a great parody.

For whatever reason, and it was probably [Redacted] and Twitter snarky culture, but things changed a little bit before we migrated over here. The boards are not nearly as friendly.
