Stuffing is disgusting and I am a terrible excuse for a person.

BBC 606 to Not 606 to here. Didn't spend a lot of time on Not 606 mind. Totally different vibe to here.

iirc correctly not606 started ok, then was an early prototype of what lots of the internet would become. Edgelords trying to take over and spew bile, moderation couldn't keep up. Became toxic?

Sounds about right. I don't remember the exact trigger for the exodus, was there some tension between the individual team boards and the overall site moderation, or were people sick of whoever was running the nufc not606 section?

12 years on here is crazy. I was incredibly active in the early years, then life changed and I barely got on here. Now I've got a degree and a real job and visit pretty regularly again <awe>

Wasn't there an insane amount of porn everywhere on that forum so it was too risky to even have it opened in a browser at work or in your phone on the train.

And there were way too many keyboard Warrior t*** Princesses.

Yeah, it was okay at first but then got hijacked by twats who'd post all kind of weird s*** so definitely wasn't safe to be on the site at work.

Can you remember your original BBC 606 name?

I keep thinking mine was Ronaldo but surely that's not right.
