Who would lurk here now? Made some sense on old Fazed, but this is just like...30 people reminiscing.

I guess it’s like watching reruns of an old tv show.

Like Hawaii 5-0 or karate flicks.

There are online communities where people post Montreal Expos games in their entirety and watch them together and it's like okay you deserve to be happy but are you happy.

I 'member that there was a 'gate' or something that you had to wait for it to open if you wanted to sign up for the Slorum.
You could Front Page lurk, but the Slorum itself wasn't always open for n00bs to sign up.

7-day waiting period when I first joined Fazed back in 2004.

We have a gate as well and it is currently closed. THE WAY IS SHUT.
Made my first trip to Fazed on the recommendation of a guy I worked with who said their front page was full of good stuff and the op handed out internet cred for posting cool links.

That's how I ended up on OG fazed back in the day. The dude I worked with was a front pager (and I think he just wanted to see the bjoobies on the webcams), and had 0 activity on the site. 23 years later I'm stuck with you fuckers on the umpteenth reiteration.

Fazed was linked on steakandcheese under sites we like, and i would check the links. Then there was a pic of spanky doing something with adam and i thought hahaha fun guys! Then saw the forum.
I found steak andcheese because my son was showing kids in his 3rd grade class links from there.
and he got in trouble.
From: Denkar - Don't panic. #715

Pretty sure I found Fazed thru steakandcheese as well. I used to web surf a lot back then, just jumping from one site to another to check them out. Found the front page here, and the rest is history.

Yeah Fazed from Fark, plus the ex and I played Gemstone with Jory and Adam (I think Adam played too)
From: fear7trembling - I hope you're watching when it #720
Date: 04/29/26 @ 2:31 PM
I found it via Fark, but I remember it popped off when it was mentioned in... I want to say GQ?
Also I found Fark via Memepool, which early Fazed emulated with blog-style posts and multiple links.
Memepool kicked ass I saw so much shit that made my brain worse.

fazed frmo fark
it felt much more comfortable than the billions of farkers
and also i loved going to the image collection in school and showing off to other high schoolers how i knew all the funny pictures
(i didnt make an account until i was older)

i found fazed through a coworker at my first gig out of college in 2003.
he probably found it through fark but id have to ask him
we still work together, at a different studio. i dont think he ever signed up,
just used it as a front page link lulzer

lurked for more or less 10 years until the slorum happened
then i reached my final form

i remember getting a kick everytime i would go to fazed.com and see some soft ass who-knows-what site
and remember the .net
or was it org
my memory is horseshit
From: butterknife - calcium depraved #723
Date: 04/29/26 @ 4:26 PM
i should say

in that 10 year lurkspan, i definitely posted off and on to the forum
but the clique was in full force

and i attempted to make a thread
and got shit on in a PM by rabbs

I stumbled across Fazed from MilkAndCookies.
Up to then, the only e-community I'd spent much time on was Bickley World.
It was an online multiplayer type of site which had competing "tribes".
I joined FreaksANdGeeks.
You could do various missions, earn poince, chat with other members.
With Fazed, I mostly lurked, but once I saw the Photoshop a Fazer thread, I began to participate a lot more.

I think my friend got it from Fark
but yeah we were front pagers only back in 2003
lured in by the flash games being posted mostly

I don't think I got active in the forum until like a year before the first site went down
started playing in the mafia thread mostly I think

my childhood buddy used to work with spun so he told me about fazed early on, but im pretty sure he was a lurker or only looked at the front page

i talked him in to joining the forum with me. this dude can be huge asshole and social idiot and his first post got him banned for a week. i was pissed.

when the ban was lifted his second post got him banned for life. i wasnt as pissed because i was like well that was a bad idea but at least i dont have to worry about it anymore

before you ask, it was not the gyrate guy.

My roommate Jamil showed us the front page in 03, I think he found it through fark?
I front paged for years before I clicked on anything else on the site,
but then I stared working an office job and inevitably started clicking all blue text I could find out of boredom.
Mostly lurked on the invisible girlfriend, web comics, and gif threads... but then I posted in Kill This Thread
The rest is hysterectomy.
