Old Skool Quiz

job · Jun 3, 2003, 11:42 PM

A short, random quiz for all the old skoolers here. Feel free to add your questions.

Oh, and if you know the answer, don't post it.

We don't want to ruin it for the newer members; use PMs instead.

1. What was Durandal7's original user name?

2. What does "QC" stand for?

3. What was jefhatfield's original user name?

4. How many original forums were there?

5. Who is the other admin of Macrumors?

King Cobra · Jun 4, 2003, 05:20 PM

Well I know 4 out of 5...

Let me add another:

(fake) Name three appropriate names that rhyme with job's original username. If you message (or even post) any of the names I am thinking of, you get a bonus point for each one.

Oh ohoh...that's low man, even for you.

Hey, am I eligible for those bonus points too?

job · Jun 4, 2003, 09:49 PM

Well, so far the standings are:

King Cobra:
5/5

vniow:
5/5

I'm all out of questions, so lets see some more from some other old-skoolers.

Oh come on give us something a little harder!

Okay, here's one:

What was the avatar (Mac processor related) that got everybody all riled up?

(assuming I remember this correctly)

King Cobra · Jun 5, 2003, 06:29 PM

(1) Which aussie forum member constantly changed avatars when he had around 1000 posts?

(2) Which Macrumors forum poster is the only one to spam the boards with well over 240 posts in a period of three days?

(3) What is the name of the PC troll, who:
>was proud of using a PC
>made only PC pro posts
>lived in the location of "buthole"
>and likes to have anal sex with chicken and other barnyard animals?
(This is all one person, as freaky as that sounds.)

Sun Baked · Jun 5, 2003, 06:34 PM

(2) Didn't he continue his rampage at another members board, while also starting his own failed attempt at his own forum that quickly attracted trolls from here, only to be taken private and die?

Something like that...

King Cobra · Jun 5, 2003, 06:44 PM

Well, sort of. His "attempt" isn't a failure.

job · Jun 5, 2003, 11:03 PM

1. Which member holds the most posts made in a 24 hour period?

2. How many posts were made in the aformentioned time?

KC, if you don't know these....

I have absolutely no idea.

I can think of a few 'tars that have been a bit risque (the cat avatar), a few odd ones (freaky tadpole anyone?), but not one stands out.

Give us a hint.

vniow · Jun 5, 2003, 11:48 PM

Okay, I'll give you a hint..

It was about the G5 and it was made by a moderator..

I'm 3/4 myself. I couldn't remember #3.

sparkleytone · 11:30 PM

i couldnt stand that guy man. always posting all this pc news and just generally baiting everyone. grrr.

i think the jefhatfield thing is a trick question. IIRC jefhatfield IS his original name, but he used a different one for a while after his posts became TOO prolific.

and the avatar, that was the sexy shiny one right? yeah that started a craze. personally i think b2tm's was the best.

Royal Pineapple · Jul 17, 2003, 03:12 PM

what did DGVPG stand for?
thats kinda a trick question tho

Porshuh944turbo · Sep 19, 2004, 09:43 AM

who remembers spikey, and if so, what was the name of the member he always got in heated arguments with?? (this is more old skool than most of you i think... except for jefhatfield...) basically the guy got so mad he finally quit coming to macrumors..

jefhatfield · Sep 21, 2004, 12:22 AM

who was the user that spammed mr with a picture from rotten.com and what was the content of that picture?

does anybody remember kainjow?

what was the original name that ensignparis had?

wdlove · Sep 22, 2004, 01:56 PM

5. Who is the other admin of Macrumors?

I thought that arn was the only administrator. This if the first time that I have heard of this subject. I will admit that I don't know any of the answers. Could someone PM the answer to #5?

ROFL, ive never read a post of his but that character sounds hilarious (in a worrying 'league of gentlemen' way). The idiot couldnt even spell butthole properly. Strange, from the sound of him thats probably where he hid his fingers.

Spikey got into arguments with 3-ish people, not one. He didnt leave, he got banned, he found the forum lacking in a sense of humour. So he went out in a blaze of flaming.

Macmaniac · Sep 24, 2004, 03:47 PM

Well I am rather stupid with these quiz things, and I don't remember most of the answers.
However I do know who was the other Admin. Blackspot was the other Admin, he did most of the story approving.

Does anyone remember the old icons MR used for Games? OS X?

applemacdude · Sep 25, 2004, 12:50 PM

Who was the first real "teen" poster here?

What was vniows first user name?
