History / Memories of the erBB

[sponge]

We're not quite at the death knell just yet, but it is always nice to reflect back on the stories, the people, and the events that made/make this place so special. Let's take a walk down memory lane, and continue to make new memories.

Before it was the Surfer.com Forum there was the Surfermag.com Monster Bulletin Board (hence erBB). The earliest board entry I could find was in 1996.



Here's a capture of it from 1998:

Dry humping in progress... (aka "Big Ball of Brown," June 5, 2007)

Anybody got the "close up" photo?

When I first came to the Mag Bulletin Board, there was ICQ chat and guys were already threatening each other if they came to County Line or Topanga ~

So many memories. I discovered this place when back in 2004. Lurked for over 8 years before I made an account.

The Stuart Lanning Jr saga.

I'm always wishing, waiting, hoping he comes back for another tour.

I remember this one. An absolute classic troll job.

Farewell tour

I tried to help him write his paper for his OCC English class but he wouldn't listen.

Nuts never do.

He is on FB. Hit him up. Maybe, you can meet him to his face?

This was classic. My favorite trolls included LeeP, Japsondope (who created other social media sites which convinced certain people that he was real), and Eunice, although Eunice has now transcended "troll" status. There must be several others which escape my memory at this moment.

You two are friends on Facebook, huh.

Are you the one he's talking about in his most recent video?

I said this before but Stuart's apt is more orderly than mine.

I know that doesn't reflect positively on me.

But I think it's funny.

RG, you and Stu share a love of fish

He should message him though facebook for some tips.

Like Stuart, RG didn't listen to me.

The crazy never do.

Some of my best memories of this board are meeting surfwordz and Piercer on my first Hawaii trip. One of the best trips of my life. Super aloha I'll never forget. I got Honolua 3 times that trip and 8 days of Wordz spot. All the days I scored Mex with GeoPac. DMJ with JJR. The base with groovn, CA Surfer and otf. The days we got at the base were unbelievable. Time on our side, we got it empty alot. Met Nep and Mr. Doof. Surfed OB with Doof and Reality Check. Scored both times. The wild parties at Geo's with Spoonfish. Lunatics. Both of them. I have a lifetime of memories from 20 years of this place. It has been a good run.
