Snorkel. I was talking to Allegretto and we got on the topic. All the times that he actually seemed pretty cool, and was good at Admin-ing, to the times where everyone was cursing him out for selling the forum.
Everyone please share your memories.
And SK, don't lock this please. I love you and your Killer Condoms.
Yeah, he was kinda cool, and good at being admin (I don't think he really ever make the forum crash much, [sarcasm]unlike silver[/sarcasm])
But, it still pisses me off that he sold the domain for $2,000 (or something like that....)
Snorkel was always weird. It was fun to get him yelling about how "Global Warming makes sense".

That was him? XD
He seemed like a person who had direction.
Ever since the Implosion of M_F's forum After the close of Old Sider, I clinged to him (Snorkel) and Silver in an effort to gain as many people to a new forum instead of them going to NS2 at the time.
Because of my hate for that forum (NS2), I generously entrusted my donation to JMV (who I met on Power on on Old Sider) who was GOOD friends with Snorkel and Silver and thus NSF was born.
I liked his funny comments and silly pics of himself in the Official post your picture thread here.
I did look up to him a great bit, and felt very loyal to him.
When he sold Us out for NS2, I felt a great big betrayal.
My reasoning for donating to this site in the 1st place was to run against and do Well against NS2........ not eventually joining there sides. So yeah, I don't like Snorkel at all..... I didn't even get an apology or anything like that. He spit on my feet and slapped me in the face and honestly didn't care.
And he did a lot worst to every single one of "US" who was involved in this mess.
The last time I heard of him (atleast him being alive, cause he disappeared) was from JMV's forum Boyah or something.
*shrugs*
I never really knew Snorkel. Think I saw him on Cloud8745's stream channel. At least they had the same screenname as Snorkel.
I...didn't really know him. I know he's an utter bastard that can burn in hell. (I normally don't use that word...)

I'm not the only one that watches his videos!?
He's an enormous dick.
I talked to him on AIM several months afterwards.
He said he never gave a poop about this place.
All I remember about him was that picture of him wearing a Power Glove and holding a Coke with a funny look on his face.

He said this because he was sad about being banned from this place, he misses this place very much. Though I was kidding, that is often the case when someone says "I never cared about *blank*."
Anyway, I don't remember much about him, he was just "that admin."

Him and a few others. For some reason, I remember him and PsychoYoshi either being on the same side against a few people, or him and PsychoYoshi on opposing sides, yelling at each other about it.
I Royally Spammed his profile...
Snorkel was a good admin, but a dick as well. Though not for selling the original forum, but for not at least saying something beforehand, so Silver or Vaatix could prepare for it. As far I as know, he is active on Boyah and a bunch of Warhammer sites.
wait.......why the hell wouldn't you sell this place for $2,000???
I would in a heartbeat.....

He didn't own the site. It was an illegal sale.

To make it worse, he sold it to EJ. Of all people.

Bunch of bastards...
I would sell it too, but I'd give a warning first and allow for a re-make, and get permission from whoever's in charge.
Thing is, I bet if I offered Silver $2000, he wouldn't sell. Hell, I might actually put that on the table just for the lulz.
Just make another site o.o
then get the money for this one.
If properly purchased, the rights to the site would belong with the new owner. Making a new site would get you sued.
But the site that was made in it's place was just one of those sites with the same name as another site except different ".com" thingy, and you can just call it something else.
No. That'd be considered a scam. If your intent was simply to migrate the userbase, and keep things the same, you'd be in serious poop if the purchaser caught on. You'd, at the very least, owe them a refund, as well as the site they purchased.
Instead of repeating everyone else, I shall point out one thing: Snorkel was cute. Kind of like some ferret.

Boyah iis Bassir's, Snorkel pays for the hosting if I recall correctly, and the domain is in JMV's name.
