I believe I'm at the 9 year mark. I've always equated this place with herpes. You can try and get rid of it but it will persistently creep back into your life, over and over again.
Mmmmm... No. It says 2004 on my profile because that is when hipforums got revamped and everyone had to register again. I think I would know better than you how long I have been coming here.
Toolmaggot was one of the best posters ever. And I miss mamakcita too. Man, they sure have come and gone, haven't they? Colonel Jim of the mexican air force, Tundra topper, etc. Goes waaaaay back. I think that boy that loved old cars and who had a sister that was really bugging him checked in for a minute not long ago. Sooooo many others. Skip doesn't seem to come on as much any more. One boy called me an ignorant buffoon for some anti religion posts. I agreed with him on the buffoon part.
I remember White Scorpion and the sci-fi story he was writing where the characters were Hip people. I wonder where he's at now.
I remember Toolmaggot. She was very funny and was nice to me, so of course I miss her...I have honestly wondered what happened with her. Last I remember her posting, she was talking about being strung up like an Apache for a Sun Dance...like with hooks in the flesh in your back and pulling you up by those hooks. I hope she is ok.
I wonder what happened to jimialltheway, chrisfromscotland, crayola, etkearne, funktastic, fuzz acid flowers, psychonautMIA, rugor, raz5, vilekyle... miss those days =/
toolmaggot has an AIM address listed on her account, so if it's still functioning, you could just send her a message.
hipforums did exist prior to 2004, that is just when the site got "remodeled" and the old one got archived. if your join date says may 2004, it's likely that you were a HF member before that.
J0hn used to come up with very weird posts all the time in the UK forums. THE MIGHTY TOENAIL always used to make me laugh. So did this post, which still sticks in my mind http://www.hipforums.com/newforums/showpost.php?p=5062896&postcount=333
