boyah documentary

[Kalahari Inkantation]

UPDATE

so i've been thinking, and i think i'm going to do a zero budget version of this in my free time. i think its really neat how we're mostly still here a decade after the closing of the forum we all came from, all bein buddies and friends and guys, and i think our story needs to be told to the world, or at the very least, documented in some fashion so we can reminisce when we're all senile and sterile.

right now i am obviously at the super super super SUPER early planning phase. i'll have to map out some plot points and then collect materials/archival stuff and then conduct interviews to help fill in the story. most all of them will probably be via skype/whatever more secure video chat platform, but I'll probably try to travel and catch a couple of you in person. my timeline for this is most certainly going to be a few years at least lol.

so who should i interview/chat with about initial research/history? JMV is an obvious one, so is snorks-mcgee if i could ever get ahold of his ass, but who else y'all?

in all honesty it will probably be told from the lens of my life since that will be easier with literally no budget and shitty over-the-internet interviews, but i want to be as all encompassing of our history and culture as i can be

reaper, certainly

i've been trying to gain a fuller understanding of boyah's early history here which could benefit this documentary project too lol, but i still need more deetz on bassir/mariofreak/lawlz's roles in the site's early development

Most of my knowledge is more on a personal level with a few members.    I never was privy to the Admin and and decision making part of the forum. I could never reveal my private talks with members. They know too much.  Felt always seemed to know what was going on with the forum.

[Kalahari Inkantation]

you still seem to have a great deal of historical knowledge, especially with regard to how boyah relates (or related) to other (post-nsider) communities lol

you were also around for powerspike and have probably known some of the users here for longer than anyone

you don't need to have been an admin or mod to have observed and offer valuable insight on how boyah developed lol

[FAMY2]

I guess I do know quite a bit.  I know there was a lot of raiding and things of that nature between several forums.
