Fast forward to circa 2013, and guess what I'm doing...
Starting another message board.
But this attempt was actually a Facebook format ripoff, it tried to combine Twitter/FB/YT, all the things. There was even video etc. It was a VERY ambitious undertaking and totally convinced me that I gotta stick to old school discussion forums, just words on a screen, maybe a couple pics/gifs here and there, cuz that other shit is WAY too much maintenance and storage space.
Can't believe I even tried it, TBH. Plus the software was... I mean, definitely not MyBB or Wordpress levels of longstanding/tried and true. But props for trying to branch out I guess.
Anyway...
As per usual, there was really no one else besides a few close friends of mine on this site. I mean literally like 3 of them.
But one day this random, anonymous person no one had invited appeared...
They registered a whole profile, but they just stuck to the forum section, didn't really use any other part of the site.
Their name was "Dark Passenger"...
Yup.
Along the same weird lines as "Beezlebub" if you ask me.
