Oh, and my first post on the new hotness. I posted about how everyone's member ID had dropped by an order of magnitude due to the disappearance of inactive chumps.

ha i remember that post. I beleive this is also where you started with those horrible avatara jokes.
Actually, the Avatara Joke™ (that's right, it's finally been ™ified. You knew it had to happen some day) has a much longer history than that. It first made an appearance way back in the days of the old silliness, in a thread discussing possible changes to b.net (this is probably about 2002). One of them was that we should have avatars. I responded that, no, we shouldn't, instead we should have Avataras.
I think that killed the thread.
Then, a while later, another thread came up with the same idea (yes, that's right, the B.net forums were just as repetitive back then as they are now. And we even had search in those days!). I made the same joke, followed by the comment "man, that joke wasn't even funny the first time around". Rip Saw misinterpreted me somehow and said that it was even less funny now that nobody knows what it means. But nobody knew what I was talking about the first time around either, so I'm not sure what he'd been smoking.
Oh, and another thing about the Member ID thread, I posted it in the Underground (perfectly excusable; up until then the Septagon had still been the Cfounders forum). Stosh moved it, and get this - he actually PM'd me about how he'd moved it.
Like we have time to even consider doing that today!
