Just curious, what is all of your oldest's posts?



Just 2 days after I joined RV! [Apparently I was a smiley spammer D:]

Well, I suppose 2003 is an acceptable year to start not saving the backups :O

When i'm on my laptop next, i'll have to add the picture that broke.
It was a screenshot taken by Jaron to show all the people at the drop party. I had circled myself, and 2 of my friends that were scaping with me at the time.

That might be true; I don't recall.

What I do recall, though, is that for several years, we completely deleted any topics older than, like, a month. We were totally booming and at the time were told it might be taxing our disk space in the long run. A lot of topics I really liked were lost because of that, and it's actually the entire reason we created The Village Archive forum--to save topics that the Village deemed needed saving.

Later on, though, we just stopped deleting things and locking them instead. However, a lot of those posts were in forums we got rid of or merged, and sometimes we moved the topics out of site to keep things clean on the public-facing side of things. Those posts are actually just thrown into a dark corner of RV that no one can see except admins. For instance--I don't know how many of your own posts you can see, Eadwulf, but I can see 2263. I can also see 856 out of Dakota's 870. You can see your oldest one, but your next four oldest are actually you posting in a "test your sig and avatar here!" thread (with more smiley spam).

Earlier this year I could see The Great Beyond or whatever it's called. Not sure if it was a bug or whatever, but there was a global thread that for some reason was posted from inside the old Clan/RVA forum and I had a bit of a browse

As for the oldest I can see just by searching; viewtopic.php?f=243&t=250217&p=1848700#p1848700

Haha, nice. Yeah, there are ways into some of those backwater forums. Whenever they were moved, I guess some things were accidentally left accessible, but now I don't know which ones and it's really not worth it anyway.
Yep! I'm the one dead center wearing my favorite Hunter's Cape, along with a Santa Hat and Dragon Legs that weren't mine because I was getting ready to drop them.

Is that some sort of pink skirt event?

The person in the top left looks like how I would dress up, but I can't remember that party at all. When was it, 2010? I was playing a bit then...

one of the guys that attended the party, started dropping pink skirts for everyone. i think he may have said he had around 23k of them at one point?


it was feb 26, 2011.

Oh the person I thought was me was probably buloo (mackerel). We have the same dress sense.

The guy near the top right with orange hair, rune pl8, rune kite(T), and the dragon long looks like N00b 4 m1nin.

Looking at the photo again I realize I am in the top (furthest person to the) right wearing a red Zammy top and Santa (long white hair) and a pink skirt.
