you took green because you're a hippie?

 

Nope. You weren't here yet though. I'm more looking towards people like Tina, Talya or Locke. Don't know if Cindy was already a BT member back then, but if she was, she might remember.

I have always wondered.

 

I may tell the story after some more guessing. Back when I started I wasn't the only one though (but other people posting in colour wasn't the direct reason I'm pretty sure).

Locke posted in blue. Maybe someone else posted in another colour (Meesh?). You copied them but took another colour. 

 

 

Am I right?

Cindy says she agrees with this, and also says it's an affectation.

it's primarily an affectation.

 

at the time mawth was trying to find the perfect midnight blue that looked like black and I recall ley experimenting with different shades of green (I assume it's his favorite color?) until he found one that was generally pleasing to all and could be read easily.

 

I do recall discussing the why bother with him for ages, and he responded it was no trouble since he c/ped the code anyway.

 

the bigger question for me is not why start but why continue.

Ah yes here it is

And by your own words you started posting in color because your bonded did.

 

You settled on #008000 I believe, which is the same green used by Balefire, Ed, and on occasion TMD.

 

It seems a popular choice for the light green flip of town that preceded the blue more common today.

You may proceed with your side of the story

Lol turns out I actually remembered it wrong. I think I messed up the chonological order of things, and thought it was because of that third faction (I'm sure you'll remember...). I DID want that faction to have green as colour though, I believe, and that's actually why I thought it was that. But oh man, those were fun times with Maw here. Wish he'd come back.

Well, I got back here in November after having decided to leave for good because Talmanes PM'ed me that something reminded him of me. I decided to check the Black Tower out once more, and I realized that it was near dead and something had to be done about that.

I guess it affects different people different ways.

 

when I get pmed about this or that or activity or stuff I feel less inclined to participate because it's suddenly become a chore.

 

that's just me

maybe.
