Um... there was the animated Trapinch picture, I think it was the Dancer Trapinch. >_< I'm sure someone posted something about this here already.

The Dancer Trapinch'll go REALLY popular now, if someone can animate it with a DDR mat under it and a screen full of moving arrows. =D Dance Dance Trapinch!

I rebember leaving PC was something that was talked about a lot before.

Gender Bending..

Blogs were really popular.

You can only do so much without breaking/bending the rules, then everyone would complain that we don't have a set standard for judging polls...as horrible as the polls were, they were legal; I did the best I could, and so is sammi =/

Your "In a battle between zombies and ninjas, who would win" threads always did well~
...That was you who posted them, right? o.O
Yes, that was part of my Most Important Poll Ever series...though I never considered them random; research the ones like zombies vs. knights, they actually sparked some surprisingly-intelligent discussion o_o

Like the one in my sig right now? These are the only two I have.

I been here a while to see some fads. The trainer cards. Games popurities like the Dare one and the Vending Machine. The evil Rep system. Then one thing you guys forgot was the World Domination Bunny.

Some of those things I got into and I quit posting at the moveset place because people got mad if you posted something they didn't want. Some still going strong but hmm.

New Fads.... Pairing/the PC family and dancing Trapinch.

The funny thing about temporary is that you never know if it is actually temporary or permanent.

Glomp - an action of suddenly hugging someone excessively, I think...
GLOMP is a term often used by anime fans, most often used on IRC, chat rooms, and Internet forums. Usually used as a verb, to "glomp" someone is usually to latch on to or hug a person quite tightly, in the style a real child might hug a much taller adult's leg tightly. Physically, a glomp is an expression of affection and is rarely intended to express sexuality, no matter how tight the hug is. It can be considered a variation on the bearhug; that is, it is a friendly "tackle hug" where the person will randomly run up to (or sometimes jump on) and tightly hug the victim of the glomp, sometimes resulting in the latter being set off-balance or even toppled over.

O__o;; I just used Wiki for a second, doesn't mean its popular. *throws potato at Dakota* I'll bet he'll say potatoes are popular too.

There were also random lines people dared others to put in their sig. One person had "I SUX0RZ!" in his signature for a week 'cause of a dare.

Holy crap there were so many of those fads...

Trainer Cards, the Crush Thread, Girl Dares...

The very very VERY first fan club was for Eli, years ago. (if by fan club, you mean member fan club
I made that club. I started the Member Fanclub craze. Woo. XD

No, no, no. <_< The member fanclub thing was way before any of your time. A member fanclub was one of the primary reasons I joined the vB in the first place back in late 2002. It may have been brought back by certain people, but unless you go back longer than I do, you didn't start it. <___<;

Aanyway. The best fad was when everyone thought leaving was the cool thing to do. So everyone posted leaving threads complaining about nothing. The most common were the n00bs that had joined a day previously and weren't getting instantaneous replies to their threads--they'd get all huffed up and post this fragmented leaving thread in OC. Eventually it got so bad we had to make a thread for people who were leaving (both permanently and temporarily, mind you).

Oddly enough, about 95% of them never actually left. ;(

poop on a stick I remember thaaaat!

That leaving fad even crept into the community HQ...I don't know if many of you guys know this, but I'm pretty sure every old PC higher staff member has made a long, drawn out leaving thread at least once.

Me and Erica did it twice O_o

Eh? o_O I've only left once. Er, technically. The first time was the ikonboard and I just forgot about it. xD Second time was November last year, but that was because everyone else was leaving. XD;

You were one of the few successful ones. Though, I guess I can't really say that because look where you are now. XD

I did it twice too...I actually left my spot like three times though. I technically should be a member right now...but hey, whatever works.

I thought these were kinda cute myself. O_o

Though, unlike most other people, I said I was leaving, but never mentioned anything about being gone forever; I think I just said that I would be gone until PC got rid of the T-Dome (which I assumed would never go away, so in a sense it was a going-away-forever thing but was unspoken) XD

Sad thing was I could have come back months before I did and still wouldn't have had anything to worry about...my first post back was a condemnation of things that were no longer valid o_O;
