Ever find out what happened to Josh_Pokeball?
I know I wasn't around when he was, but for some reason I find it strange how people just completely stop visiting a certain site/forum.

For all we know, his skeleton has been adorning a New Jersey ditch or abandoned dumpster for the last seven years.

This is pretty cool, nice to see everything all organized for new members who want to get to know the "crew", for a lack of a better term. Also, why is MajinVegetaXV considered a slut? I've always wondered that.

He jokingly called himself it on a podcast episode.
Still holding out for Tanooki to gain some sort of "steals stuff off trucks" user title.

lost is our technical savior that demands constant bows, prayers, and sacrifices. I don't think people appreciate what he's done to port data for us over the years.
Marc... I don't even know what to call him anymore. He can't write worth shit on his own, so it's not like he's running around correcting other folks. He's a quasi-admin-holdover from when he ran the forum install for us for so many years. Let's call him our "fail-safe" in case Hujio and I are simultaneously killed in a car crash.

'Fail-Safe' sounds like a nice user title.

I write worth shit just fine. I'm just lazy and tend to ramble.
There is also my secret job (dealing with lost as much as possible so Mike and Hujio don't have to, your average person wants to choke lost to death within an hour or so of one on one discussion. I'm a lost to 'average person' translator as it were.)

Goddamn it, I actually had both of them written correctly at first, then went back and changed them 'cuz I thought they were typos. Whoopsy-doodle.

Maybe it's worth mentioning that the "Clean-Up Crew" are the forum's moderators.

I hope that this isn't too much necroposting but I wanted to contribute to this thread and creating a separate one just for one bit of info seemed excessive. So, essentially today there was a new user-exclusive (it seems so to me) rank included:
"Not Banned"
The relevant info about its introduction can be found
here.
The mods have asked in the Banned Members thread that we don't discuss the stories of individual bans and so on. So I won't do this. But I thought that the inclusion of a new rank merited to be noticed.

I'd been meaning to update this anyway since I recently discovered the amount of posts I'd listed for reaching "Kicks it Old-School" was wrong (it's 7,500, not 8,000). Thanks for the heads-up!

I know the post is old now, but I totally want to second this.
Dragon Ball ended in 1997.

Hope this thread is still able to be posted in, but I just wanted to point out that Rocketman just hit 10,000 posts, and his title now reads Namekian Warrior.
