Actually I do remember you a little, and yeah, you weren't one of the "troublemakers" at all as far as I remember. And yes, I do remember them posting CP all over the forum... >_> Thank fuck I don't remember the exact images anymore though.
Yeah, I've seen NiS. It's Lanny's personal monkey cage. lol Aren't they already rebelling against him too?
I went on to read the thread you linked after I posted my previous reply, but before I could get halfway through, I saw a link to yet another thread so I made sure to read all of that before I finished the original thread I was linked to.
I can safely say that is a very good explanation of the forums that came before this one. I was actually not on TOTSE but I was on Zoklet since 2010. I did have an account on totse2 but I posted on Zoklet only. I saw that you mentioned Zoklet and why it was shut down but the way you put it is actually a much nicer version of what really went down.
So what really went down is that Zok got doxxed and his personal information was leaked. Not only his own personal information; but also that of his parents and other relatives. And I mean everything, from telephone numbers to names to addresses. Couple this with his already existing health problems at the time and you can see why he would pull the plug. I actually think it was really nice of him to leave up the site for over a month and give us a month-long head start to get our stuff together, see where we want to relocate, etc. He didn't have to do that, especially not with the way he was treated by the userbase he took care of for six years.
I thought I'd give you the real reason so that other people on this new incarnation of the Sanctuary can see as to why the old members leave a bad taste in your mouth. I did see you mentioned the CP and that was actually the sick, illegal stuff I was talking about. Luckily I don't remember those either and luckily I haven't seen it on Lanny's forum. Lanny, by the way, wasn't Aldra. That is a different user. Lanny was a moderator on Zoklet.
Just thought I'd share the information I possess since it's useful as it gives further insight as to how rotten certain parts of the internet can be.
Heh, glad you have a more positive memory of me! That's nice to hear.
Yeah, Lanny has to deal with a bunch of very annoying people very often. Well, not as much in the past few years but it was definitely daily before. You know how it goes; someone gets banned and creates hundreds of alts just to annoy Lanny again. And to think Lanny spends money just to keep the site up and running with people like that. LOL. Also, I just found out that some well-known user apparently got arrested for possessing CP. I'm not sure if he's trolling or not because he also said his toddler died when she didn't. Very messed up for him to joke about. But he hasn't been posting since he created that thread and it's been three months. This dude usually posts a lot everyday and has over 60,000 posts so I'm thinking he probably did get arrested for it.
