I got an "inappropriate content" message going to that site. Don't click the link while at work, big brother is watching.

There is a little more to the history of SB and how it got to where it's at today...but overall that sums it up. The other stuff is well....stuff.

 

[Walter]

Don't hold back, Jep, share.

Well, first the earth cooled then the dinosaurs came .... (or alternately the world sprang into existence fully formed with dinosaur bones already in the in the ground, but I digress) King Neptune created Scubaboard and it was good. Then time passed and a wee little feller named Jepuskar made his first post to the board:

Time passed and our adorable little toddler Jep got his OW cert then one day he asked a potentially divisive question:

Not too long later, after many posts and some potential trolling, it seemed that the holiday season moved Jep and he turned over a new leaf:

Alas, it was not to be. After much heartache poor Jep realized he had to to on walkabout to become... well, something. We still haven't quite figured out what.

and then he came back...

Then we had his first post.... again...

http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?t=26290

He crosses to the darkside, gets his PADI DM... fights with the LDS... Gets banned, then unbanned....

Now he's an instructor. Scubaboard history through the eyes of Jep.

BTW, looking up all those old threads was a hoot! There are a ton more, obviously, it's Jep.

A very comprehensive history of... Jep I had no idea!

I don't know about you, but I'm still on page one. You can set your preferences to how many posts you have (I use 40) per page. Post number is a better marker.

Thanks for the tip! All this time, I've been stuck doing the default 10 posts per page... I meant post #9

I can see how a lot of people were confused by this...

I just went a did a search for a couple old threads and can't find "slinging fido like a stage". Anyone know where it went?

Dang...I can't find it either. I remember a thread from about three years ago called "best of scubaboard" it included links to the classics...can't find it either.
