if i ever stumble into millions of dollars and never have to work again, i would consider traveling hte country to connect with many of you for interviews to create the Boyahmentary.
What topics do you think should be covered?
Who should be interviewed?
The topic of mental health and why Boyah isn't be greatest place for it lol
NYERP
Rae
Famy
Tec
maybe i should make a documentary to finally shut the books on if Zayna is dead or not
make a gofundme
also is boyah something that we necessarily want the world to know about
although it would probably attract new users :0
i mean i do think it would be a kind of interesting concept at least
a hyper niche forum of nintendo-fan-forum-expats that has been going for over a decade. who are these people? why do they post? why are they so lonely?
maybe netflix will buy it
I wouldnt even know what topics are large enough to be covered since everything is so random lol. Other than just individual users stories
kinda like fredrik knudsen's down the rabbit hole series sillydood;
at least you'd have youtube

honestly with the proper framing devices i do think it could be interesting. especially if one of us ends up famously in jail or something
Sometimes I think about how most people don't have a boyah. This is a very specialized community, literally about nothing, that exists only because it's existed for so long. It's crazy that this is just a normal part of my life that I accept. Most people don't have this. That's fucking bonkers

i don't think you're wrong- it has kind of the same appeal as that parking lot documentary (if u haven't watched it u should)
the fact that boyagers have met up and even moved in together is pretty damn impressive. plus things like our web of boyager meetups are cool
i would help
more people need to get doodthing tattoos if we're going to do this. make boyah more of a cult
the dream: we make the documentary and become so wildly flooded with new users that we have to bring back the validation board and all og boyagers get to carefully prune new members to create the true boyah 2.0

The plan? Make a titillating slice-of-life documentary to attract news users to Boyah once they see just how kooky and alternative all of our current members are.
nice upvoted

i'm assuming this is a typo and you mean why boyah

boyah has legitimate medicinal value as a psychiatric aid srsly

I'm in good company at least.
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
also feel free to volunteer if you'd like to be interviewed and i'll hear ur story bb
You definitely need Reaper to cover the dawn of boyah
Kaz would be a good person to interview. He is probably one of the most consistent members.
Ypr also. He has been consistent and the one who probably knows the most about people besides JMV.
YPR I could feasibly interview in person too sillydood;
but yeah reaper and kazberry krunch came to mind as well
Yes we should do the interview over hoagies in Richmond baddood;
shots fire doodhuh;
wait what shots huhdoodame;
Oh heh heh I thot u were mad we haven't gotten a hoagie yet
Nobody hates you C.Mongler n_u
Vice already did a docushort on incels

reaper, certainly
i've been trying to gain a fuller understanding of boyah's early history here (https://boyah.net/forums2/index.php/topic,69955.0.html) 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

You know, there are surprisingly few incels left here. smithicide;

anything it's my fault for being in Richmond 3 times and only inviting once at most lol
Also my Richmond friends fault for going through a messy divorce atm so I cant visit

Most of my knowledge is more on a personal level with a few members. n_u 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. n_n Felt always seemed to know what was going on with the forum.
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 dittodood;
you don't need to have been an admin or mod to have observed and offer valuable insight on how boyah developed lol
I guess I do know quite a bit. I know there was a lot of raiding and things of that nature between several forums. n_n
Ooooo juicy

i mean look at this you apparently even have an archive of visual elements from pre-boyah times lol

absolutely
you're going to be the documentary's protagonist and the primary focus of the video shooting
goodjob;
We could have people in similar regions (i.e. me Geno and notsid) meet up for a group IRL or Skype interview
If we planned far enough in advance I would certainly be down to do something
Quote from: FAMY2 on August 11, 2018, 07:32:18 AMCan someone figure out how to make Zidone post more. @C.Mongler he would be a good one to interview for history.
agreed, he's been mostly silently observing boyah since nearly the beginning and probably has some unique perspectives on how it's developed lol
i believe zidone also has particularly close ties to lawlz and could lend some insight on him
I don't know how willing he'd be to participate in a project like this, however. goowan
