Raising the Dead

[Ellerby]

[color=#555555][FONT=Tahoma]No this is not a thread about necromancy. Rather, it's about old OtakuBoards members. I have a question for you all.

[center][b]If you could bring back [i]one[/i] old OB user, who would it be? Why?[/b][/center]

What I mean by this is of all the OBers who left OtakuBoards for whatever reason which one would you like to see come back to OB and start posting frequently again? I'll start you off with my person.

[b]Why?[/b] Because she was, besides Sakura, my favourite person to Roleplay with back in 2003. We were in almost all RPG's together and I just adored her. I had the hugest crush on her aswell. :whoops:

I'd really like to see her make an OB comeback, even if I were the only one who noticed (although I'm sure people like Revelation and Sakura would remember her). It'd be interesting to see how she's changed since 2003.

What about you guys?[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]Last seen:[/COLOR] According to the profile 5-13-06 but she must've not posted.
[COLOR=DarkSlateBlue]Why?[/COLOR] She was a good friend of mine on OB. I think we did some RPs together and posted on a lot of the same subjects. We had really fun AIM conversations, too. She was one of the first online friends I ever had.

[Transtic Nerve]

Does anyone here really even know any old OB memebers? I mean, a few months isn't old... i can name people from 3 years ago....

I'd bring back Sephiroth... not that anyone whos anyone would remember him. I think he's number 6 in posts behind me....

[b]Why?[/b] Because disappearing without a word or trace really sucks for (well, I thought anyway) a close friend of hers. I really enjoyed my one collaboration with her, and on top of that she was a great photographer. And I'm not gonna lie, I'll say it, she was [url=http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y55/caloriescankissmybigfatasianteenagedanorexicyogaas/poopy.jpg][b]hot[/b][/url].[/size]

If we didn't, would we be posting? That doesn't make any sense...

[Transtic Nerve]

the point i was trying to make was written in my post... a few months may be considered old to some people.... i dont consider that old... i would consider a few years old... and i'm not concieded.... ok well maybe I am... oh thats right, my signature kinda says so... heh.

[b]Reason:[/b]
[i]QA[/i] - She was a good friend who was nothing buy polite to me and always worried about my feelings. SHe was that girl that every gay guy needs in their life. Int his case she was one of around 5 special girls :)
[i]Seph[/i] - I've never met an Iraqi citizen before and he was by far the most understanding person I've ever met.
[i]BG[/i] - She's one of those other girls. Her 12 year old brother died while she was still around her. He was the world to her. She meant alot to me and her friendhsip really did help me through alot of hard times
[i]Shy[/i] - He sent me a Christmas card with Jack Skenlington on it! thats an automatic jump to the top 10 lol. And we've helped each other through a few years of understanding ourselves. I really liked him... like really like like.
[i]GL[/i] - One of a kind woman with a mind to speak. I loved her posts, everyone of them. She was great to these boards.
[i]WC[/i] - Was, and still is a good friend of mine. I've know him since he was 14, and now he's turning 20 this year. Watched the kid grow up. I owe so much to him... he doesn't even know. I would certainly not be who I am today without knowing him.
[i]CK007[/i] - A really super understanding friend who never had anything bad to say about anyone and also another one who i knew since he was 14 and now he's turning 20 as well i think... wow. Oh yeah and he's adorably cute
[i]Syk3[/i] - Hot! And nice... and hot.... too bad he's straight. Josh got to meet him though, lucky bastard.

[SIZE=1]Interesting, most interesting.

There's definitely a bunch of people I'd like to see back from the back in the day, so it's hard to pick one, the weird part is a lot of friends who went off for a time came back and have started posting at least semi-regularly again.

[B]Why?[/B] Three reason really, one he was a fellow Irishman and there's not too many of us on OB. Two he was a Star Wars fan and could always be relied upon to join my SW RPGs, much like Juu and Dave back years ago. Three he was a good friend and could always make me laugh, so much so that he's sitll in my Buddy List despite the fact he's not been around in two years.[/SIZE]

I can even remember his avatar... I just can't remember his name!!! I looked through the whole Member List and couldn't get ti!!! He did a lot of battles (back when the battle area existed) and him and I fought together and ended D_B_D's Trigun RP. he was always fun to fight against and realy cool... just don't know the name!!!

Also, Transatic, who said anything about a few months?

[B]Profile:[/B] [URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/member.php?u=3889][link][/URL]
[B]Last Seen:[/B] Early this year, according to his profile, but I don't think he's posted for a very, very long time.
[B]Why?[/B] Well, ColourDeaf was a brilliant writer and one of the first I came across when I joined the boards. He was in my roleplay [I]'The Things We Do For Love'[/I] and his character was fantastic in that. It was one of those "Ohmygosh, he joined my story?!" moments. I believe I was in a roleplay of his, [I]'Those Who Hunt: By Night'[/I] (or somesuch) and it was during that story that [STRIKE]sexual tension[/STRIKE] friendship between Unborn Lord Xion and I began to show itself. :rolleyes: He also had some pretty original ideas, if I remember correctly, and was a nice guy to boot.

Here's hoping he actually was a he. Sometimes it's hard to tell, eh heh.[/SIZE]

[/list]
[b]Why?[/b][list][*][i]Syn[/i] - He was one of the greatest computer artists of OtakuBoards, in a set of different styles. He also knew how to criticize honestly and unsalted. Having him back would be a great addition to the art community
[*][i]Dragonballzman[/i] - My favourite spriter ever. He had great humor which he used excellently in his comics. Oh and he's user number 96.[/list]

Well, Dani was a great person too, but I forgot her username. When she was still visiting a bit, she once was MysticDarkElf, but I guess she changed that. [i]Edit:[/i] Okay, I found out. She's now Shinkoru and last visited in May XP

[Foredaddy]

I actually just started coming back here a few days ago. I'm sure nobody really remembers good 'ol Foredaddy, but whatever. I remember Transtic very well. You were always very sassy back in the day. I'm sure you probably haven't changed your ways too much. :D

Pretty much everyone Transtic Nerve mentioned I remember (Ginny was my favorite). Those were the days. Geez it has been a long time. I think I was 16 when I first came here. Now I'm 21 and its so weird to think about how fast time moves along. To be honest I'm not a huge anime fan at all. I was pretty big into DBZ then, but that was about it. But anime wasn't the reason that I always came back. This place was always full of fun and interesting people that I could relate to on other levels. That's why this place is great and thats why I'll always stop by on occasion to say hi, even if nobody remembers little ol me.

[size=1]Core and Gavin will definitely remember this guy:

[b]Proflie[/b]- [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/member.php?userid=6405]*click*[/url]
[b]Last seen[/b]- According to his profile, Alex was last seen back in October of 2005.
[b]Why?[/b]- Man, this kid was so incredibly nice and kind. Always willing to help, and just a sort of quiet, behind-the-scene guy. Not to mention, he was an [i]amazing[/i] RPG partner [with me]. He could anticipate everything I wanted to accomplish between characters, and would blow me away. A perfect, and our [Corey's, Gavin's, and my own] pride 'n' joy, example can be seen right [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=34376][b]here[/b][/url]. Alex put everything into his character, without a shred of hesitation. He wasn't afraid to push his character to the limit, and frankly, he scared me to death in [i]Black Horizon[/i] (which is what I linked). An awesome person, and an amazing role-player. I would love to see him come back, and get back into RPG. I certainly would show my face in the Adventure Arena more often.[/size]

I remember you! I remember back when you were called ZF Foredaddy, I think. You were easily one of the funniest guys on the boards. Man, that goes back to my Great White Frying Pan Man days. It's also cool seeing Transtic Nerve in here; his posts have always been candid, which is something I miss.

Anyway, although I miss Sephiroth and would love to see him back, I'd have to go with Semjaza Azazel or Generic NPC#3. Tony's a great guy, I've had some terrific discussions with him off the forums, and we've even traded games. On the boards, he's one of the few people whose gaming posts I actually looked forward to reading.

He hasn't exactly disappeared from the Internet and he's even on my Xbox Live friends list, but I miss what he was able to contribute to the boards as well.

[b]Why?[/b] Well, what can I say? Lone was for a long, long time one of my best freinds on the OBs. We had quite the epic battles in our Arena Battles. If I do remember correctly, it was always Double Barrel Diego vs. his character, Trick. An on going rivalry for months. When I was unable to log onto the OBs for a while, we kept in touch and he showed me another Boards where we could keep in contact. Upon my return to OBs, we lost contact. I've talked to him seldomly on AIM, but he's not online often. I do miss the fellow.[/color][/size]

I was ZF Foredaddy for a while back in the day. I forgot about that. ZF's were the best clan ever. And by best I mean me and another kid started it. but yeah...

[B]Why?[/B]
Nataniamon- She was an awesome person and one of the first I?ve ever RPed with when I first came to the OtakuBoards. We had fun in the RP [i][URL=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=9212&highlight=Dryphon+Tamers]Dryphon Tamers[/URL][/i] and I am sure that I can say on behalf of everyone, we?ve grown out of that style of writing. But, in another word, she helped me get along in OB, as did Kevin. Those two are probably the first OB friends I made.

Geist- I wonder where he went off to?but he and I created an RP together about vampires. I can say with safety that he was a big vampire fan or something of that sort. We talked online for a few but never really got to know each other, probably a pretty cool guys if I say so myself. It?d be pretty neat to see if he?s ready for some dark and twisted. Heh.[/size][/color]

Why? Flash was a fellow New Zealand OtakuBoards user, and there aren't many of us around, if any at all right now.

Flash also had an approachable personality and was a very skilled RPer. He was the first person on the staff at the time that I actually got to know. Beign from the same city helped that out alot.. I coudl talk about what happened down at Hoyts 8 or Northlands and have somebody here understand what the jack I meant. I miss that.

I was happy when he returned in 2004, but that was brief, too brief.

Honourable mention goes to tohe one, the only master of.... master of forks, yes... masterfork! [[url="http://www.otakuboards.com/member.php?u=9"]here[/url]] who should really think about returning. Those babies aren't going to scare themselves! Who doesn't want to see masterfork again? "IT TO SCARE BABIES!" Rock on! :animesmil

It took me forever to come up wth someone, just because there's so many. Also, a lot of people I was friends with before somehow got banned since I've come back. What happened to Cloud/Tasis/Zeh?
