Wednesday, June 27, 2007. Master of Nachos and GameMaster started the largest flame war in the history of the CQFF.

Which is why the real guy made a new account called TheRealDarkArchon.

Friday, April 20, 2007. Richie makes sub forums for the fan projects making each project maker a local moderator.

Wednesday, August 30, 2006. mattbratt11 joined the forums. This member is very annoying at times but he doesn't come on very often. He made at least thirty topics in the first month of his membership of the forums. Most of them were polls that simply had no meaning. He made a couple of topics in the Forum Games section which were almost unfair such as his Name a Male Celebrity topic which he was the judge of.

Thursday, August 5, 2004. After becoming moderator of General Chat on Monday, November 10, 2003, and an Administrator on Friday, April 2, 2004, Dragon Master was banned. The reason was as follows: he threatened to unleash a virus, insulted many members and admins, banned a member for no reason, started new sub-forums without Richie's permission, and basically abused his power. Sometime after the event, Loremaster discovered that his means of becoming an admin was: he created a duplicate account, posing as the guy who created the Chex Mania site. After it was discovered he was a fake, Dragon Master said he could make him leave, but he couldn't as a moderator. So Richie made him an Administrator, and Chex Worriar stopped coming around.

Thursday, July 29, 2004. Brain Candy posted the topic "Post Your Desktop" It has become very popular and it is still alive. (Because lots of people like to bring topics back to life)

Saturday, February 15, 2003. Richie started the forums.

Date Unknown. While Boingo the Clown's TUCQ was technically the first CQ mod, Loremaster made the first Chex Quest mod with all-new levels.

Date Unknown. The Girl Topic Redux was started by Kuwabara. It died due to mattbratt11's poll madness and it was wiped out in the hard drive crash.

Date Unknown. Everyone's sub-forums except Dvader's Return of the Queen suddenly became unpopular. Nobody posted anywhere. It was almost as if everyone lost their interest in Chex Quest.

Date Unknown. Loremaster first showed his famous Master of the Obvious picture in the old Doom Builder topic which was wiped out in the hardrive crash. His first of many victims was Master of Nachos who happened to be a huge spammer at the time.

Those are left over from when Nacho was running it. I agree, having a lot of members posting at once really isn't news.

And yeah, you can post here.

Replica - July 1, 2007 11:34 PM (GMT)
also, i made FQ, forum because i'm going to creat a new flemoid Quest game. go to my Flemoid Quest forum to learn that. it in fact has nothing to do with CQ3


edit = and get rid of the , (insert date here) master of nachos made this time line. it's yours now ;)

Master of Nachos - July 6, 2007 03:08 PM (GMT)
Man this is the only place I came to the forums for. And they took it away because of a single mistake which was very bad actually. I just posted everywhere else because this forum was never posted on. This is the only forum that I will post on for a while.

And about the members posting at once... it was a slow news week. What about what happened this week with wayc and Richie's Dad?

BTW what was wrong with the other one? You could edit the timeline.

brain candy - July 6, 2007 09:53 PM (GMT)
I just wanted to note that saying Wayc "hacked" my account is giving him way too much credit. He just used his administrative powers to change my password to something he knew. Crazy kid, he told me what he had done when I logged onto MSN, but I'm not sure how long he had access to my account. <_<

Master of Nachos - July 7, 2007 03:25 PM (GMT)
I've been PMing Richie and he might give me another chance in being a Local Mod.

Replica - July 13, 2007 09:33 PM (GMT)
probably not. how about MoN came back after the suspending was up any way

Master of Nachos - July 14, 2007 02:46 PM (GMT)
He actually set up a poll but I told him not to. It was a unaminous no.

EDIT: BTW why couldn't you just keep mine? You could still edit the timeline. And it wouldn't look very good with my old one sitting there locked up.

Replica - July 16, 2007 07:10 PM (GMT)
because it looks like your time line. not his -_-

Master of Nachos - July 16, 2007 09:52 PM (GMT)
Plus I could still edit it. But if there's anything that I would keep on these forums it would be the right to this timeline. It's the only thing I come here for. I just post everywhere else because no one would post here. The forum for the timeline was my idea and it was originally in my control. Technically it's my forum. But I'm just not in charge.

Replica - July 16, 2007 10:10 PM (GMT)
lets get this strait. it is X-Bolts sub-Forum. you basicly sold it to him by posting porn. its his. if someone sells their company, its not theirs any more. Your the one who posted porn inthe first place, it was you fault you lost your mod statis. stop complaining. end of discution. now back on topic.

Quoted because I can.

From Wikipedia:
QUOTE
Pornography, sometimes shortened to porn or porno, is, in its broadest state, the explicit representation of the human body or sexual activity with the goal of sexual arousal and/or sexual relief.


That definition, while very subjective, could apply to the image you posted. Meaning, yes, you posted porn.

You violated one the most important rules here, and only got your control of one area as a punishment. It's over, it's done. If you really want to contribute, find another way to do it.

Indeed.

Nacho, I didn't like the prospect of editing your post. I would much rather edit MY post.
Besides, the timeline WAS my idea in the first place.

And another thing, I thought you were serious about leaving for good, and so I figured it didn't matter anyway.

Well, why would you believe that!? I mean come on I end up coming back each time. All though I think I mean it.

Replica - July 17, 2007 10:42 PM (GMT)
Ya why would you beleive that?

xbolt - July 17, 2007 11:34 PM (GMT)
You know, now that I think about it, I don't really know.


Also, I do believe that this is the first time someone's been mad at me for believing them.

I don't know if this means anything or not, but a week or two ago, I saw Tilple's name in the active users strip.

Master of Nachos - July 18, 2007 02:06 AM (GMT)
If he didn't post it doesn't really matter.

Replica - July 21, 2007 01:42 AM (GMT)
Sure it does. he came back. and then left.

edit = he was here two days ago. -_-

xbolt - July 21, 2007 04:00 AM (GMT)
I dunno, I'm a bit iffy on that.

Manny Cav - August 9, 2007 10:37 PM (GMT)
Well, well, well. Today is certainly a day to remember in the history of the Chex Quest Fan Forums. A lot has happened. I think you know, xbolt....

Replica - August 9, 2007 10:51 PM (GMT)
i pmed him about that....

xbolt - August 9, 2007 11:24 PM (GMT)

Something that's been bothering me, but I never got around to asking: Is this way it really happened? Why would a topic get locked just because it got too long? I've seen bigger word association topics than that started years ago that are still going today.

Methinks that was the way it happened.

pikazec2012 - November 3, 2007 01:10 AM (GMT)
shall we add that i got upgraded to local ,od to the list

Manny Cav - November 3, 2007 01:12 AM (GMT)
I don't think that Local Moderator promotions are "important enough" to add to the history list.

pikazec2012 - November 3, 2007 01:14 AM (GMT)
k just a thought

redbipedicus - November 11, 2007 06:00 PM (GMT)
Charles Jacobi visited yesterday?! When? Did he post?

Replica - November 11, 2007 06:10 PM (GMT)
In the chex Quest chat. as chukker. the second in the topics.

Wasn't it called the "Super Cycloptis?" That's what I'm going with, anyway.

Replica - November 11, 2007 11:34 PM (GMT)
No, he said. call it whatever you want. Thats a little plane dont you think?

It's about as plain as "Cycloptis Tenacious."

Replica - November 12, 2007 12:18 AM (GMT)
Not exactly. (Not sure what that is...) Did DC Mke Commonus and then Super Commonus? No. They called it Bipedicus. So why should they call the Caco vertion Super cycloptis? Cycloptic tenacious Is fairly different than Supe ;)

The difference between Cycloptis/Cycloptis Tenacious and Cycloptis/Super Cycloptis is negligible. ;) Besides, the had a perfectly legitimate reason for the Commonus/Bipedicus thing. The Commonus is the most common Flemoid, and the Bipedicus is a biped version of the Commonus. ^_^

Replica - November 12, 2007 12:56 AM (GMT)
Were going to have to make a topic to "fix" our problem.

Manny Cav - November 12, 2007 01:14 AM (GMT)
I made a [botched up] poll here.
