I used to have so much fun over at TVTropes . . .

All Nines

Where did the spark go? ;_;

Even once IJBM was nuked, I still found entertainment, but then something happened, somewhere along the line, and suddenly I felt less inclined to post. Perhaps I should rectify that.

GLORIOUSLeader

C'mon, we won't hurt you.

We even have cake. 

DYRE

I felt the same way.

It's better here than at TV Tropes though, so I don't mind.

GLORIOUSLeader

Fine, have a bigger piece, sheesh. 

All Nines

It's not that I don't enjoy it here, but TVTropes's forum had things you can't quite get here.

TheMightyAnonym

But... you can post gifs here!

Komodin

Eh, with this site, I can take it or leave it.

But now I can't link to TV Tropes images from here.

Which probably means a bunch of my old posts here with reaction images are now busted.

Oh well.

TheMightyAnonym

Really? Let me check:

TheMightyAnonym

You were saying?

glennmagusharvey

Try F5'ing.

ClockworkUniverse

If it's in your cache, it'll display. Fast Eddie disabled hotlinking two days ago.

Central Avenue

i CAN'T SEE IT, WHATEVER IT WAS.

aLSO, TYPING LIKE THIS IS FAR TOO MUCH FUN, EVEN IF PEOPLE CALL ME tAVROS WHEN i DO.

TheMightyAnonym

That's odd, it's still displaying. I completely cleaned my cache and everything, why is it still there?

ClockworkUniverse

That's weird. It's not there for me, though.

TheMightyAnonym

OK, you guys must be trollin me or something, because I just checked in a different browser which has never laid eyes on that image, and it still displayed.

And if you must know, said other browser was off by one, which is useful specifically because it caches nothing and doesn't use javascript. Or anything. If *that* browser displayed it, then something must be goofy.

Maybe firefox 4 is pulling some sort of crazy ninja magic, and offbyone is... there really isn't anything to explain that.

I've even disconnected the internet, at which point it didn't display.

ClockworkUniverse

A few holes have popped up in the anti-hotlinking code since it's still new. Maybe it doesn't apply to you for some reason?

glennmagusharvey

You use Off By One?

Holy shit you rock.

Vorpy

It's not in my cache which is why it won't pop up.

TheMightyAnonym

^^^I AM THE LAW!

^^You use it too?!

We have always been bros, and we never new it! -tears of joy ensue- I've never seen another who uses it; I thought I was the only one!

glennmagusharvey

I don't use it on a regular basis, granted.

But I still keep it around.

ClockworkUniverse

I just downloaded it. Seems pretty cool, though not a general-use thing.

TheMightyAnonym

Indeed, you can't use it everywhere, however it is an extremely valuable asset often times.

Especially for those of us who have slow computers or like to browse iffy websites. Like me.

MoeDantes

Eh I dunno.

I may be a hypocrite here but, while initially I disagreed with the nuking IJBM thing, after awhile I came to think that maybe Fast Eddie was right.  It does seem like the forum got a lot more intelligent, or at least the dumber posters who have huge sticks up their asses now have less opportunity to cause trouble.

And despite my initial fears, I've still managed to have interesting discussions that have involved huge disagreements.  I've got to admit that at times I'm intentionally harsher than I should be just to see what I can get away with, and the results are that:  as long as you know when to back off, the forum doesn't have to be a hugbox.

Central Avenue

IJBM brought out the worst in me. It was fun while it lasted, but I'm glad it's gone.

ninjaclown

Then why are you here?

Tnu1138

I miss it so much I need to get back.

TheMightyAnonym

^^Because evil feels good.

Central Avenue

Admittedly, this IJBM brings out a bad side of me, too, but less so lately.

Tnu1138

I thought Good felt good and evil tasted good.

TheMightyAnonym

It also works the other way around.
