[quote=dereklaserbeam;%2Fbloards%2Fgbs%2Ftopics%2Freal-talk-the-bloard-thread-with-a-strict-no-irony-policy%2Fposts%2F643] the way I understand it bloard was created by @leh0n for a group of something awful goons who were becoming dissatisfied with sa. not sure beyond that as it was before my time and I've never posted on something awful. [/quote] I forget why it was created but I do remember that it coincided with the rollout of a new interface at SA, the forums were offline for 24 hours so naturally everyone migrated to bloard for a few days. But then leh0n changed it so you could only see posts by people you were following, like twitter I guess but it was really confusing and lyle stopped posting.. lehon later changed it back but the damage had been done. This incident later became known as the first bloard invasion. I believe this also coincided with the Wulgus incident when Wood Thrush came to bloard for a few days and got owned so hard that he had to change his name to hermit_thrush and his mother told him that she was ashamed of him and she wished that she had had a miscarriage. I was banned from SA around this time so I came to bloard with the first wave of immigration and I never left. I quickly proved myself as an invaluable ally and gatekeeper and was secretly inducted into secret bloard (where the bloard babes are) Before I knew it I was balls deep in my own private virtual harem, exchange nudes with young women of every conceivable body type and ethnicity, sharing love and encouragement. Ah, if these bloards could speak... There was another invasion in 2013 I think but it wasn't the same, it felt like everyone was just going through the motions, and the magic was gone. But not for me though- I like it just the way it is.
