This thread was definitely made for me, since I have the oldest active account here (aside from Udi of course).
Most of my posts are not visible because they were created before one of the later forms of moderation. I expect them to be permenantly in moderation limbo.
Most of the posts were really indicative of the old days of IIN. The most pointless shit was accepted and kept on the site for ages. Sometimes I just felt really silly and posted jibberish.
However, what I remember the most longingly were the fake stories. I would get inspired some days to write the most ludicrously absurd stories I could think of. Then as I watched the comments pour in, I couldn't stop myself from laughing. Especially at the ones taking the story seriously, but also the trolls.
On the other hand, I had a large number of posts in which I spewed some brainwashed liberal B.S., especially after having watched an over-the-hill George Carlin doing the same.
I don't think my stories were all that funny, looking back. But the comments were often hilarious.
So, overall I'd say that my posts were always shit but not without some comedic merit, most of which being incidental instead of planned.
When you look back on your old IIN posts or comments...
