Reggie could not have pulled off that troll without an inside panel presence ... and I was Atlas Collins.
I'm just a curious bystander in this discussion. Why couldn't you have pulled it out without a panel? And how does that relate to "Levon"?
You were there then, I believe, Lily, but you probably weren't paying much attention due to whatever drama you were engaged in at the time.
Reggie showed up at Farmers new board after Vapor's board vaped just as all the refugees from there and Yahoo had settled in (before the CO/CBT schism) and proclaimed himself King, Emperor and Admin/Owner-to-be on such and such a day and generally riled everyone up.
What no one knew at the time except for me and a certain Valhalla troll with admin powers there was that on that such and such a day (April 1st) I would be designated as Admin/Owner of the entire site.
The spasms of crapsody were fucking epic when it came to pass!
Spoon remembers. He was the only one who figured out what "Reggie_Essent" meant, but that was long after the fact.
I think it's YOUR memory that's a bit rusty. Reggie showed up first NOT on Farmer's forum but on SNOOP SLOB's forum, and the date was April Fool's Day 2007. Sadly, I was not in attendance although I agree it was a fun time for all present.
Farmer and Snoop didn't consolidate their forums until a few weeks later, and then Farmer eased Snoop out of the picture with the quickness of a Kentucky timber rattler, a switchblade between the sixth and seventh ribs.
I'm not saying when I obtained a panel. Didn't like it, didn't use it much. And if you can't figure out who I am, you simply didn't pay attention to things there.
And no thanks,
@Holliday1881 ... I'm not going to break meme to post in the style I used in those days, which obviously was very mannered in its own way. And I'm also not going to cough up my username.
