Tell Us

[carl.d]

Just out of curiosity tell us we're you heard about us and do you keep the same user name throughout other sites like me.. 

It's entirely up to you if you want to list your different users names so we know if we know you.. 

[Makara]

basically by chance/luck searching direct download warez in google 

my first 3 sites are now long gone

Loki Torrents - FuNsTeR  (Queen - Shear Heart Attack album - Tenement Funster)

Phoenix Torrents - FuNsTeR 

Bolt.CD - Killiebrad  (Killie is short for Kilmarnock Scotland's oldest professional football/soccer club and Brad is short for my first name Bradford ... i prefer Brad)

Silent Ground - Godric1970 (big trueblood fan Godric is a 2,000 year vampire and 1970 was when i was born) i joined there after Bolt went down and still post their now and again 

Novanon - Lucifer & Makara was told i had to register a new username to become a mod on their .... having to use two posting styles was annoying to me as i had to keep my true id hidden (Lucifer is a character from the original Battlestar Galactica Lucifer was Baltar's Cylon 2nd in command)

Merlin Warez - Makara (from a child's show similar to Thunderbirds ... i used to watch in 1980 Star Fleet in the UK, also known as x Bomber/ Di-X Makara is a character a commander in the Imperial Alliance - the bad guys) 

apparently i am still a mod on Novanon even though they know i've left .... i wanted to leave the way i came (quietly without causing a scene)

I first heard of the site when Merlin popped up at R-Place.

I've been around a very long time and been a member at countless different sites.

I have always been dvernb (Vern, the name friends & family call me by, bookmarked by my first & last initials).

I have 2 nicks on line, but I think most people know me by the one I'm using here.  When I joined here, I used my alternate one of Phlox, which Merlin loved, somehow it didn't fit for me, so I asked him to change it for me and he did.

Same here, I've been on many forums over the years, but 20 years ago I decided I didn't want to have any control in a forum, I just wanted be a member.... now, no more sheriffing for me and it's great.  Don't forget our old refuge and safe private place RP,

 

 

 

[twncam]

I have been around forum life since 2005.

twncam is my main nic and used at most all sites I joined.

As I was a mod at wbb back in the day, I did use one different nic to remain anonymous on a few sites which was RoadRash.

But these days it is always twncam.

[Kath]

I think we all use 2 nicks at one point or another.  My alternate one is Phlox, which in someways works better, but most people know me as Kath since the 80s.  In fact a lot of my nicks incorporate both as Kathphlox.

Personal nicks are important... it's your identity, I agree with that.

I found "forums" in the old unmoderated NewsGroups back in the '90s and was addicted.

Since then I've administered two that are still running, been a senior moderator of an expat forum of over 300,000 members, a lot of them active, and been a member of many.

I decided on a new user name here, I'm slowly retiring the old battle scarred original. 😁

Just out of curiosity did this place spin off directly from Bolt or come via Novanon or NeoVistas?

 

[Gawain]

found link other site use differ name here

[Rickkins]

Saw the blurb over at R-Place. Like some others, been around a bit. 🤪

[Kath]

Us old guys seem to congregate around here now.  We will not give up, we come from all countries and all races. This is what we are, we chat, exchange info and generally help each other out.

We retire, because the time is right, we hand the baton to the young ones.  I don't think they will see such an exciting time as we did.

Back in the satellite daze, I was know as Snik on the sat forums...

 

[koolrebel]

I found Merlin.com by searching for a warez.bb alternative. After my arrival I noticed names I was familiar with on other forums I decided at that time I was staying. I had a brief absence due to illness but made it back .......so here I am 😉

[jim3692]

I got here thanks to a friend who "introduced" - so just lucky I guess. 🙂
