Friday ignores a PM from Kala

Sometimes when you look back and think about it, 16 years we've been going as Moopy, that's pretty amazing. What a community :disco:
I've only been here 6 years, and half of that time I've not even been around :(
It's quite impressive that so many of you are still posting when you literally started in the 90s.
 
With you on this. Sleeping is such bullshit. Someone needs to make a drug which means I can just be awake all the time (with no ill effects)

It would be my DREAM. I love being up early before any other fucker is.
 
I never use :david: because I remember reading once it is associated with @David. Is that a thing?

Yeah, back in the days of dotmusic, once you hit a certain posting number, the moderator there created an icon of you based on your photo. When we started Moopy, we moved them over here. That was his. This is mine: :sheena:

Thank you! I've always wondered!

Was it Worldpop before that? I remember knowing a lot of people on moopy before moopy came along.
 
I love these Moopy history lessons.

Here's a question: Have any of you ever defected to other forums in the past? Is anyone currently CHEATING on Moopy?
 
They shouldn't be applying any pressure for you to go back in at all. One of my colleagues has a son with Cystic Fibrosis - there were ovations about getting him back in because 'there's nothing wrong with him...', but they got shut down pretty quickly.

There was no pressure at all, I think she was just dipping her toe in the water to see whether it was cold or not.

I don't know of any other forums that were KILLED by social media. Well I have sometimes posted on owners forums for cars I've owned because I like tinkering and fixing but you can't tag Angela Merkel Ketamine Disaster on those.

When I lived in Cambridge I posted on a local forum for a couple of years. It got me a few shags so worth it.

These days I like to browse Mumsnet sometimes for the lols.

I suppose you could say I started one of the splinter factions, Chart Forum Refugees, at the same time as Moopy (based on the Dotmusic Chart Forum). We had a decent run of about 3 years maybe, and got several members that are here now.

I can’t remember what I got tired of in the end, but I ended up at Moopy and CFR collapsed a short time later.

I don’t know what that makes me, since who defected TO Moopy. Am I the Nick Clegg of Moopy?

i think it has already been mentioned elsewhere that the beleaguered spice fans left dotmusic and crossed the red sea to a purpose-built forum called denden. me and raspberryswirl come from there, jonfessions too. DC and Halli also used to post, but were here too

Who was that absolute HORROR that took over and ran the forum into the ground?

The demise of CFR was quite a sad event. But also deeply satisfying.

Ryan & Joe?

it was sad how it went, but I had already made my peace with leaving it. It would be tempting to feel that it fell apart without me, but one person doesn’t make a forum (even if they are paying for it)

how do you mean satisfying? Out of curiosity
I mean I never felt that CFR was trying to rival Moopy in any way, especially not in the way that Haven is the antithesis
 
I don’t really understand why anyone would want to post on more than one forum, especially those which cover more or less the same sort of topics. Also, AS IF (for example) Vasilios and chums at sad old chat abattoir Popjustice are going to offer anything remotely insightful or intelligent

CASE CLOSED

I think satisfying because Ryan & Joe was so awful, smug and thought he had it all nailed while simultaneously destroying everything good about it.

Oh I know it wasn't a rival. It definitely served a purpose. Haven was a rival of sorts, but not really.
 
We did end up falling out with... was it Lowculture?

Those on Popjustice who knew of us hated us for being obnoxious gobby queens. Of course we knew it was our USB.
 
You're all going to shit yourselves if he responds to those tags.

Why? They’re all quite funny. Well, bar one. And I’m quite happy to be considered IMPORTANT enough to provoke TAG ATTACKS from those too PATHETIC to say things to my face... :disco:

I didn't mean yours. I was talking about the people who were @ing David. A response would be quite unexpected there. :(
