5 Wonderful Years of 606 !!!

[ogsdog]

As of today January 18th.....
Forum Age: 26 days, 11 months, 4 year.

That means this Sunday January 23rd is our boards 5th Birthday.
It's hard to believe that it's been around for this long already.

Amazing really and a testament to what dedicated people can do when they put their efforts forward.

For me this board is & has been an enjoyable break from an otherwise monotonous day / week. I've enjoyed the cyber-friendships I've made on here, along with the occasional wind-ups I've recieved (love em').

Anyway, that's my two-cents worth.

What have you found this board to be for yourself over the past almost 5 years it has graced the internet.

I was a young fuck head 5 years ago




Now look at me an older fuck head ;D



It's been good, a lot of shit has happened over those years and I think to a lot of people 606 has played a part in that time.

Yep, LNF was when my eldest was a tiny baby and he is now headed for 7 with his life spent with me on here! This place being five fits with that. So how long ago were the Last Post races on the old 606 on the BBC? And who left on here is old enough to have been there?!?

I joined as I was going into my GCSE years and now I'm doing a degree.

Without this place, I'd probably be a little more innocent. But that's the Internet for you.

I do indeed remember the old 606 ;D Who was that one Leicester clown that used to bait everyone with the same repertoire before every game ("Your cup final, glorious stadium, try not to take it personally" etc) and often ended up looking very silly? Lloyyd, I think?

There was that one poor Chelsea fan who got duped into believing he was talking to a girl, sent 'her' naughty pics etc, then it turned out to be a group of guys... He then pretended to be the police (changed his account username :, said they were being done for harrassment and abuse and ended up getting even more worked up over it

Not like certain other persons who did have the police involved

[DTR]

Some up's some down's miss a few folk who dont get on here any more due to facebook ETC - RBNO is BIG miss too but at least we keep the corridor going strong and i will always try and pop on and give this place some support.

I have had some great nights on here (even when drunk and unable to type) as Pastie will testify.

ahhh the post races on BBC 606, I believe around 5 years ago, remember them well.
....I remember the Manure Board being quite pissed when the Villa board past them for highest post count.
I seem to remember hannah, the african walrus, tractorboy, a few others & I had the Ipswich board right on their heals. I had to defect from the Arsenal Board as they were truly boring me to death.
& then along came this beauty forumn & replaced the BBC 606 for me altogether. ;D

good memories......good times.......good times indeed.

[PASTIE]

I forgot about Lloyd. Good value and obnoxious in equal measure.

Who was the guy on LNF who weirded us alk out? I even had a chat online with his wife one night who was weirded out too. Jen will remember.

Then there was getting BWGH to name all his sexual conquests. Ieven met Joe Lewis in a pub after that...

And RBNO... Facebook has a lot to answer for

[PASTIE]

And yes Dan will have been pissed on here but GfJ still holds the prize

Can't argue withn that Dan Si had some masterful late night drunken entries and Roaster some late night rants, some great times with Sterland and his 10p's and the rest of the corridor dwellers - i do miss those times

[PASTIE]

Genuinely sorry I missed the night out although i truly enjoyed being on the end of the phone!

[Billy]

I love EVERYONE on 606 - even the nutters, and especially C@V ;D

Seriously though, I've met some great people, one awesome person, and loads of great Leeds fans along the way!

[Neko Bazu]

Just a thought, but I hope someone's going to clean up once you lot are done nostalgia-ing all over this thread

[PASTIE]

In fairness it is like a virtual old people's home

[Jules-Hovah]

Word.

I will not specify *which* word!

only one eh', that's just because you haven't met me yet my bray, at that point you will have doubled your awesome person count.

TURNED OUT NICE AGAIN

[ogsdog]

Nice counter on this board, instead of saying the age as 2 days, 0 months, 5 year, here's what it currently says on the frontpage.

Forum Age: 2 days, 12 months, 4 year.
