Holy cow, this place still exists?

Post by Scorch »

What's up dudes? I haven't been here in years, but I stumbled across it today and was amazed to see it's still up and running. I even remember some names from way back when. I haven't played Descent in ages; is PXO still up or is D3 pretty much dead?

And what's up with descentbb.com? Why are there two?

Because the (deleted) who started .com decided he was too good for .net and wanted a place he could curse up a storm.

Not a "family oriented" place....

I am not the Scorch of Scorch's den, that was the other Scorch. I am the Scorch who had the site at Parasite's (what's up with him? I haven't heard from him in several years either). Some of you may remember me for choosing an Apollo 440 chipset over an Intel BX many moons ago. :P

Don't waste your time on DBB.com. It's like .net- except without the maturity that makes this board stand out compared to many on the 'net. It's totally useless. But on the positive side, most of the whining, unpleasant people migrated over there.

whos firewheel?...

Don't listen to these suckas Scorch...just think of the .com as the fun version of this dry board...Where you can say what you want without it getting jumped on or removed...

besides..the only people that DONT at least view both boards are the ones who are all bitter and mad for no reason....Like an ex...


you guys are right about one thing though:

WB Scorch!

and remember...
4 out of 5 people surveyed liked the .com over .net for it's tastiness and consistency.


All joking aside, Both are great forums and have their good and bad points.As stated earlier .com is more of a relaxed atmosphere.

Remember people, everytime you hate, The flying spaghetti monster kills a pyro.

WB Scorch!

As you may surmise, there are some hard feelings about the dual BBS's ... I would encourage you to check out the new one and form your own opinion. As far as I am concerned, it's all good .... .net and .com ...

Really Bet, for your own good, get some help with those resentments and passive aggressive tendencies now while you are so young or risk growing up to be a bitter loner.

Scorch aren't you the one that RIAA came down on for hosting an FTP MP3 server? If so then thanks cause I downloaded a few gig from it ...
