Cool.
Just in case anyone tries the link. The old message board was deleted a while ago because it contained email addresses in a spammer friendly format.
Now, the only email addresses available on the site should be pr, wake and binaries @2000adonline.com. Let me know if you spot any others.
Wake
i was bored and wanted to find the first message on the board and see if it went to the top...
so it did... fancy that.
Hey, let's keep doing this every few months, the Eternal Thread!
Dante
Can we not have it as a Louise who used to be in Eternal thread?
Finding a thread like this lurking near the top of the board is akin to finding your Dad's old flares in the wardrobe.
Creepy.
Yes please!
Like yourselves, I've just wandered in here and wondered what the hell was going on. New message board? Whaaaa?
So this is the oldest thread eh? Better than trying to compete with Get Fact for content!
Two months since this thread was last posted to.
So here we go again!
Dante The Persistent
30th July - 2nd September - c'mon that's only really ONE month!
We should have a party on this thread to celebrate the board's second anniversary next month.
I'll bring plenty of beer! I have a lifetime's supply after my barbecue the other day.
- Trout
any veggie burgers?
Veggie burgers? Grrrr...
Bloody herbivores should not go to barbecues.
Quorn on a barbecue? What's the point?
Alright, I admit it. I burned all the Quorn burgers. I was distracted by drinking beer.
- Trout
Funnily enough I'm a real carnivore (like my steak so rare Dracula would shun it) but I do like Quorn sossies.
The only thing I don't like about them it that they look the same after they are cooked as before they were cooked....
Dante the Quornucopia
Just gimme the cow, and I'll wipe it's ass.
>Hey, let's keep doing this every few months, the Eternal Thread!

Hi Tingler!

this thread asks all questions
Hello tingler, what`s your story?
What's happened to the beginning of the thread??
Yeah, I was wondering that. Can't be much of an "eternal thread" if bits start falling off!
...Dudley
It'll be when Wake had to alter threads prior to 2003
... and here's me thinking that i had the honour to open the site with thread#1 and didn't remember a thing
must be a hive-mind-transferrence-revers-polarity-neutron-flow kind of think
thinky
ahhhhh those polarity things, yeah theyre great they are,
especially uber-enhanced-pyschotic-hypnotic-hive-mind-transferrence-reverse-automated-irridescent-false-memory-syndrom-zeitgeist-sucking-plasma-vortex-stimulating-positive-polarity-neutron-flow with beer.

"It'll be when Wake had to alter threads prior to 2003"
What happened to threads prior to 2003?
Sorry, you'll have to speak up youngster...
Rio 74: (IIRC) Before the server RAM upgrade due to the number of messages and general increase in database size, the website (and chatroom) crashed a lot.
As a temporary solution, all messages prior to 2003 were archived on (I believe) a different server. This caused problems if a message thread was started prior to 2003 but was still being posted to after 2003.
However since the RAM upgrade, the messages post 2003 have been reinstated- so the thread looks normal again.
Got that?
indeed.
Guy goes to the doctor and says,
'doc, its my brother, hes mad, thinks hes a chicken.'
The doctor replies, 'Well if your so sure why not just turn him in?'
'You kidding me?!' replies the guy, 'I need the eggs....'
Aah, i laughed until i stopped.
Just thought i'd give revered eternal thread a bit of light relief thats all.
....and it was so funny the thread hibernated for 3 and a bit months!
wow, i'm posting in the eternal thread. how lovely.
Bwah - ha ha
This thread is now the property of Triangularian enterprises.
Antone denying Triangularian enterprises rights of ownership regarding this thread will merely prove the validity of our claims.
Welcome to a brave new future!
The world will end in 2012.
Further details to follow.
I blame Jim Campbell for piquing my curiosity.
Jared doesn't live here anymore, so I'm claiming the thread.
Are you "Antone"?
This thread should have more discussion of Celtic mythology.
Slaine's based on Celtic mythology.
What the?!
I know it was two years ago, but I have no recollection of posting that question or what the hell I was talking about!
This is like finding a fossil...
So many names! So many memories! What's Esoteric Ed up to these days? Did he ever get that bigger boat he needed?
SURELY THIS IS THE ULTIMATE NECROPOST!!!!!!!

Wow, the first thread on the forums, dusty....

Not really, this thread was last used in the the great "Slaine days of August"
Bum. And piddle.
Nothing to see here.
Just wanted to get a post in the eternal thread. For posterity you understand. Come on all you other relative newbies. You never know when it will resurface next.
Hey I've been on the board ages and still haven't posted on here...

Welcome aboard vzzbux ;)
Did is say board? I meant thread.
Gosh darn fingers and befuddled brain.

Just stumbled upon this thread - well, just had to post; it'd be rude not to.
Awaken, terrible & ancient sleeping beastie!
BUMP.
I see Trout is reasserting his evil side.
The eternal thread has reawakened.
Be rude not to say hello.
Hello

The sentence is death.
How have I never seen the Eternal Thread before?
What about Thread Zero, though?

Did the Eternal thread die?

Thread Zero was something else. A quirk of web-code (or was it more sinister?), it was a thread on the board that you could only see sometimes and sometimes only you saw it, that stole posts from other, more innocent, threads before disappearing again, to lurk until it became hungry once more.
None of that is a lie. Hopefully some old timers back me up... although we tend not to talk about it, the same way we don't say Candyman three times to a mirror.

There is no Thread Zero. There never was. Nothing to see here.
There are no black helicopters.
Stay in your home, Dr X. No one will be calling.
