I noticed yesterday it had come up [ seemingly] w/ out anyone editing or posting.
I thought maybe it was some admin command.

I decided to check it again to see if our Cheifwight had mentioned anything about the Silm. posting protocols
&lt;hem<img src=mad.gif ALT=">:"> ) I will happily take silence as a -&quot;see to it yourself&quot;.and trouble you no further.

Re: Welcome to the Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum.

Ha! Thought you could slip a Star Wars quote by me?! Ben is a great man!

That's the strange part -- when I clicked into this section, there it was, about fourth down on the list, quite randomly.

Note the generic &quot;Administrator&quot; and &quot;Registered User&quot; titles. Fascinating!

OT: Silm. posting protocols

lindil, since you e-mailed me about such my main comp has been non-functional and I haven't been able to get into my e-mail to reply. I don't remember the entire gist of your message and didn't want to reply until I could get back in and read it thoroughly.But perhaps your remark will suffice. Take care of it as you see fit. And stop frowning at me <img src=tongue.gif ALT=""> <img src=wink.gif ALT=""> I'm a busy wight, ya know!

Know your history, folks! Up goes the thread which was already labeled 'this old fossil' as far back as February 2001

I have strong suspisions as of this particular thing being the very first post of the very first thread on the BD fora, and what with having the fourth birthday of those celebrated just the previous week, let it be exhibited for the awestruck crowds to gape at!

Hmmm... odd coding in this thread... must be the age... as old as time... mwha-ha.

You are right, this probably was the first posts ever!

Cheers to the Downs!

Ah, yes it is. Good to see! Edit: Wasn't there a thread about this on the old EZ Board?


And while I'm here ... Welcome everyone new to the Barrow Downs, and welcome back anyone who may have fallen asleep through the decades that return.
