Title: How Did You Start On The Slap Forum?
Post by: SleepyPeePee on January 29, 2009, 01:15:30 PM
My buddy Jeff, i use to work with in a call center, use to go on all the time, & i would be so bored waiting for calls to come in & we had access to the internet but i would get bored of every website, forum, & video on YouTube. You name it.

Then he told me about the Slap Forum.

We would spend 6 of the 8 hours lurkin on here & it killed so much time.

Then the I.T. dudes found out what we were doing at work the whole time & blocked Sports, Entertainment, Forums, etc. so we couldn't do shit. I ended up getting laid off but even at home, i spend hours on this a week.

i did it more or less the same way, i was working at a call center and would get retardedly bored so i started bringing dvds to watch while i worked, once i got bored of that i just started talking shit on every forum i could find, at the time this one was good, especially compared to the others like skateboardrumors and transworld etc. now its much worse but im still stuck here when im not skating.

One of my homies made it in the top 10 for One In A Million, and some dude said he had scare crow steez, so I tried to post to defend his honor but it wouldn't let me unless I created an account.  I got addicted, this is the only MB I belong too...

Working various jobs on computers. SLAP was the one message board where people were really knowledgable about skating and it was always pretty active. I work in a call center now. I'm bored.

Boredom at work. I used to lurk here and I would get so fucking annoyed at those ELITEST ASSHOLES at Slap....but like a train wreck I couldn't look away. Now I've spent 18days, 14 hours and 34 minutes of my life at this place. I should probably be docked that amount of time from my pay to make up for it since I'm on here during work hours 99% of the time.

I needed a place to live and my friend Richard needed someone to sub let his room for a summer while he went to Europe, one of the room mates was John Trippe who was the original web master, he told me about it while he was working, I have been on here ever since. That was way back when 2000 or 2001.

I was an admin at Thrasher, rescripted a couple of lines of code, and post whored there, but lurked here a little but my best friend really got me hooked on it with "check out the ______ thread, shit's great" comments. I got addicted, waited until I felt that I knew the forums, then immediately got into a flame war with "Wise Penguin" who I demolished with the power of Photoshop and self effacing humor. Kicked his ass. He started it though.

Lurked here for a while without an account because you could find out shit here way before anywhere else, then they locked me out without having an account. As soon as I had to be logged in I would post. I used to want to post something from time to time, but signing up seemed like a hassle.

i used to run a texas skateboard message board and one of the more interesting posters was always negative about every clip that'd go up and it would annoy the shit out of all the kids that chatted on my board but i thought he made the place more interesting because otherwise every thread would be just a bunch of dick riding. he mentioned in passing one day that he wasn't a hater, just that he was more inline with the slap board when it came to how he felt about skating which got me interested in checking it out. around that time a friend of mine was a top contender for 1 in a million and so i came here to try and defend all the hate he was catching on the board, got flammed, felt like shit about it but then wanted more.

I read an interview in The Skateboard Mag with Raymond Molinar. He was complaining about this place.
I thought "who gives a shit about a message board?" so I checked it out.
I instantly connected with the type of humor that's around here.
So I've stuck around ever since.

I'd finally hit the over 1000 posts...... fuckin a. Anyways i found it due to looking at the SLAP site when i was a kid.

In highschool (02ish) some kid pointed me in the direction of Digitalskate.net as a means to just get my grubby skate-hungry mitts on any sort of skate related media floating around on the internet, where I watched every single obscure homie-vid promo or montage I could find until the site went down. Then Skateperception sort of picked up where digitalskate left off and I just sorta hopped on over there for the same reason, this was before youtube I think or else my foray into mb'ing never would have happened.

Anyway, I'm neither a filmer or editor, and posts in "anything goes" (they're equivelant of the Whatever section here) aren't even added toward your post count. I was truely a man with no country over there.
 
Then one day, my good buddy Dave who's been on here since the beginning of Slap would always try to bring shit up that he heard about on this supposed Slap messageboard in real life conversation as if any of it was really going to strike it big with us real people. We rl kook'd him several times for this until finally one night I just spontaneously registered and started spamming the shit out of this place as I continue to do.

This place was my first exposure to any sort of elitist online culture. I remember within my first couple posts I got flamed by Guile for posting self-footage in the photo/video section. It was a dark moment in my life. It was then I realized that this place is sorta like jumping rope, you've got to get a rhythm for how things work before you jump in, unless you want to end up like GWB...

I started on Delphi, this guy from Montreal or Toronto kept talking things about SLAP's message board, it was around 2000 or 2001 if my memory serve. I forgot what I post but Jah and other veterans kept fired back, it was so funny that I was hooked.. I do not know if lurking here really help my English that much but it definitely helped.

Though they redid the board last year, for some stupid reason I had to register a new account.

Anyway, SLAP was a really good magazine, it is really weird to see it had to go digital.

When I was a young guy, a package arrived on my doorstep from R. "S" Boyce, adressed to Biggums the G. I opened it up, and inside was a brand-new copy of the RDS video and a note to some guy on the slap message boards named Biggums the G. This guy lived in Canada, but was having all his mail forwarded to upstate NY. Kind of a random occurence, but I wandered into this place and haven't looked back since.

Booze, skating, chicks, bro's, sarcasm, irony, love, hate, being an ex slap-pal that shoulda never focused,boobs, making a kid show his balls for a fake fully flared link, wanting to leave work to go post on slap, whores, Jamie Thomas call outs, bentmode posts, bullshit, fast times at ridgemont high, gnars, and kooks.

Its why I can't leave

Haha, I forgot about that!
He wrote "Slap" on them with a sharpie if I remember, then said it burned.
who was that again? wetigers?

Yea.
I went so far as to make a fake FF... and after 1 minute or so of skate footy of the Lakai team, it busts into some black midget getting railed by a giant cock.
I told the kid "I'll post the link to FF for everyone if you write SLAP PALS on your balls with Sharpie and post a pic.
The world almost stopped spinning that night.

I think around 06 i signed up and posted for a while then got over it a bit. Signed up again late last year, and check the forums almost every day.

In 06 the majority of the topics i read were pretty good and it made for good reading.

After having SLAP for a few years I just figured I'd give it a look.
It's the only board I go on.

i checked it out one day after hearing one of the wheelbite guys talking about it. i got my first computer in 03 and the local message boards were going off at the time, then i remembered about this place. i think i lurked every couple of weeks for almost two years, before making my first account. meeting a lot of different slap pals has been pretty rad so far. seeing grimcity throw up all over himself on a trip to vermont was priceless, as was making balloon animal weiners at a cici's pizza buffet with babykillaseason and doctor handsome. i met mexicanspaniard at denver park a few days after meeting lenny and poocrusher. artichoke lurked me at a spikes hotdogs in boston, and so on. it's been an interesting thing so far, even if it does suck periodically

My creator programmed me to bring down the Master Control Program from the inside.  My light cycle ran out of juice and I ended up in this sleazy part of the internet.  I bumped into another program that went by the name of "China White" and he offered me a vial of something he called "cyber juice".  Since then, I've developed an addiction and I can't make it out of the SLAP mainframe.  Somebody help me?  Please?

Back when I just got into skating I used to frequent heyday.
At about March 06 I following a link from there that led to here.
The place was a comedy goldmine. I lurked hard and read as much as I could. Only 2 weeks ago did I finally make an account.
I'd say the highlights were Small Time skates colonel boards and JT having several blackbox related threads pulled because they made him feel bad.

funny story, actually: I had been real depressed for a few months prior to learning about this site.  It finally got to the point where one morning I woke up and decided I didn't wanna live anymore.  I went upstairs to my parent's bedroom and loaded up the shotgun, but before I went and did the deed I was about to go and check my email one last time to see if I got any new myspace comments. Well...low and behold: my little brother had left the slap forums up on the family computer.  I read the "things you are not stoked on" thread and realized that I had finally found a community of truly miserable motherfuckers I can relate to.  In a way...slap saved my life.

P.S.: I don't even skateboard, yo.

i suffocated a young, aryan male and later found out he was gay. panic stricken, i joined slap to learn the probability of it being a hate crime, and to cope. this is a community of cope. the scorn is still there, but i can sometimes look at myself in the mirror again, and view my handsome reflection.

been lurking for a few years...posting for probably 2.5 years but my first account was deleted when things got weird. i just remember always reading interviews, even 5 years ago, and people talking about "the message board haters" and i couldnt figure out what fucking message board was making that kind of impact. it sure as hell wasnt transworld or thrasher, so i came here.

I had taken to online rap battling and came across one of beans's posts when I googled "multi" and I've just been addicted to it ever since.

hahaha.

I joined just after checking out the main site and was obsessed with anything and everything skateboarding.  When the boards were white the first time, mad long ago.

In '02, I was a bored, adolescent douche. Everyone got annoyed with it, and I was rightfully put in my place. So, I went on lurker status and kinda stayed there. I like the ridiculous stuff that's posted here, which is why I keep lurking. I've stopped skating long ago, unless I'm going to the cigarette store. That's the only exception.
