Your First Day as a member of TFF

Hey all, do you remember your first day as a TFF member? Your very first post? Your first rant/flame/spam? Your first friend on your buddylist? I remember mine. I orginally came to be a member of TFF in July of 2005 and my orginal name was Ultima. I was Ultima til I lost my password to it and changed my email back in April lol. So then I made a new account called UltimaMKII, then switched to Phantom. But back in 2005 I remember my very first post, it was a post in the Final Fantasy IX forum about my favorite magic spell which is still to this day Blizzaga heh. My first thread was about what everyone's favorite character in FFIX was.




I posted more in FFIX then the others. Back as Ultima my first post in a trivia thread of in of course FFIX, but I posted in the other FF sections. I don't remember the first member I had on my buddy list back then through. I personally like my new account better, I'm more interested in other topics like the other FF games, my journal, the other trivia threads, posting general things, and welcoming new members to the forum. Such good memories. Do you remember your first day as a TFF member?

Yeah, I was all excited about it, haha.

I had about ten post within a matter of about five minutes. I wasn't TOO spammy, but I was pretty n00by. I never used "txt tlk", but I think I must've been more annoying.

I do remember double posting once or twice and Cloud Strife X told me to edit it...

Hah...

I don't really remember my first EVER post, though.

I did use that idiotic text talk ><. It's a bit hypocritical, actually. Those here that know me will know how much of a grammar and spelling nazi I am. I'm almost constantly correcting people.

My first post wasn't a post, it was a thread. Entitled something like "so wat do u think of seymour guado"? God, my finger itched to hold down the shift key while typing his name then XD. But that's what it looked like, I think. I changed the actual content of the thread a while ago when I saw how horrible and n00bish it was. As I have done with alot of threads.

Heh, I remember your first thread Miss Delirium, I don't think I ever posted in it but I do believe I took note (at the time) that you where a Seymour fan-girl.

Times change, eh?

I remember my first post on TFF, as one might expect it was in the RP forum and I took part in my first RP with a post count of 2, yay! Back then I had another username, but it's been so long that I can't remember it. And if anyone can then they can keep their mouth shut up about it, I think it may be something I don't need to be reminded about >.>

Uh... August 12, 2002 was a long time ago. So... no, I don't remember exactly what I said then. I know I never had a new member thread. I probably answered some question about... which game was cool or... which character was a babe. I didn't get interested in General Chat until much later. This was back when all the game forums were named after locations within that game. And the mod forum was the Highbridge. Um... I didn't type much different from the way I do now. But I expressed myself differently. I was 14.

And then I disappeared for a year. I originally came to this site not because of a search for game knowledge, but because of my brother Omnislash9999 (now just... Omni) and my friend Shannen (Viper.. viper_venom, at the time) who I went to school with from elementary through high school. They enjoyed it and wanted me to be a member. I think... in the summer of 2003, I got bored and ended up at TFF again. My account was still there and I saw the journal forum. I decided to start one. I have kept that journal for years. I slacked off at times, so there are pieces missing, but it's still been there for nearly five years of my life.

About that time, I randomly joined an RP with El Uno Nut (A Mighty Zordon) and Anarchy (Lover Boy). I still remember a lot of the details of that RP.

So those are the first few posts I remember. Oh, and I joined a few clubs around that time too, including a Seymour club thing started by Viper. It was basically Viper talking about how hot Seymour was and the rest of us replying with "Uh, yeah, pretty hot." And at some point, I posted a picture of myself in a Strong Bad shirt... which alerted TFF's Strong Bad to my awesome potential. Or something.

Okay, I'll stop. I don't remember the exact order of things, but those are a few events from my early TFF participation.

EDIT: Oh... and my first avy was the girl with leaves one. Back when you had to have 100 posts to make your own avy. Is that still a rule? Oh! Found it!

Honestly...I don't remember.

I mean I remember vaguely my, by-the-numbers, intro thread. I remember getting a posi rep from Vamp about bashing Seymour and feeling a twinge of guilt, but I can't remember if that happened on my first day...

I do remember that my first avatar was an old picture of Kureno of Fruits Basket fame and my Username was OmniTense back then...

Oh man. Nostalgia.

This is my second account, the first was a year older and purged due to inactivity. I probably posted in the Final Fantasy forums first, most likely X. Who remembers, honestly.

I was never a spammer. Back then, there was a 125 character limit, so you couldn't really do it in the first place. I actually threw in a lot of meaningless adjectives to look my posts look bigger.

I got to tell you, back then, this place was a big part of my life. TFF chat and posting so many times per day. Long time ago.

it was right after 9-11I remember looking for TFF because the Five Iron Frenzy board was down and I didn't want to wait for it to go back up at the time. How my life would've been different had I been patient:I ended up not going back until a couple years later, and no one remembered me anymore. It's a very clique-oriented board too, so there you go. In any case, I joined as Telegraph.

Anyhoo, I read the guidelines for what I should post in my introduction thread and pretty much followed them to a tee, which earned me an "I like this one" from a member I don't remember the name of. That's all I remember from my "first day."

I remember posting a very spammy reply in an anti-newb thread by Archis, and getting yelled at by rJ floW for spamming in one of his threads (which was spamming in itself, as he was not a moderator and had no authority to tell me what to do.) I'm surprised I didn't get a warning in that first few weeks or so.

I also remember thinking Mike, che, and OmegaGear were the coolest members ever. And I asked Tifa Leonhart to be my sister, and some guy who's name I can't remember to by my brother. Llanowar Dead asked me to be her sister because I was Tifa's brother, and that was my TFF family.

There was also a member named "El Spam" who was pretty awesome. I also "Championed" the "Newb Cause." And that's what I remember of my early days on TFF. Anyhoo...

Wuv, Yer Mom

I remember starting a minor fight. But I can't remember who with.

And my avvy, as it was for years, was that leopardskin moogle with the backpack. I liked it because it moved. My name was Shiva.

God, that was ages ago. I don't even talk to the girl who persuaded me to join anymore. I think she joined just to keep me company, but she was queen bee at some inane little Zelda board with about 7 members.

And then I disappeared for a while. And came back. And disappeared. I think this past year has been the only time I've ever really been consistenly on this forum. I have no idea why.

It's true, she does that often. In fact, sometimes i feel like hitting her when does that to me on MSN. But i can't blame her, nor do i have anything against, in fact thats the way i was sort of raised.

But on my first day i joined, i think all i did was look around, and somehow felt unwelcome when i saw insane post counts and members with incredible knowledge. Kinda like i didn't belong here. So i joined around January of 2006, and if i recall, i posted around 15 times in the Final Fantasy 4 part of this site. After that, i don't think i ever came back to this site until i stumbled on an email from Fuzz i think. That was a year later, when i was prompted to begin posting anew here. As for my post content, i think its always been what Canadians call a paragraph...

Don't wanna be an ass or anything, but i'm pretty sure i didn't have the Vampiric.Delirium syndrome......god i'm horrible...sorry Froggie..

I don't really remember my first day as a member at this forum, that was over two years ago now, I have a terrible memory lol. I think I joined on a Saturday though in October and I remember being a bit of a n00b. I don't think I ever used text talk though considering I despise it! I believe I always tried to use proper English, well at least I hope I did. I saw a couple of posts that I did ages ago and my God, it was pretty embarrassing! I hope my posts aren't so n00b-ish otherwise that wouldn't be good at all. >_<

I think I remember posting a heap too, in the one day. I do remember every body being nice though unlike other forums I had been to, that's why I have stuck around here for so long!

My first day was, searching final fantasy on a google search and finding tff. My first ever username was "existingdark" which I noobishly changed to "Dragoth" after a while and then back again, after a while of becoming a regular member, and chatting on blab I changed to "Darkwolf" which as you can see I have been ever since. M
