alt.tv.simpsons

So, today was the first time I've encountered with this group site. I've actually heard a lot about this website ever since I hung out in snpp.com back in April, reading those episode capsules in my free time. And truth be told, I never expected that this group or website existed until today. I am from NoHomersClub and Mr. Paakiten, who is recruiting volunteers to make the new episode capsules from Season 14 and work his way up, told us that we could get our capsule sources from here... so I had my doubt, but googled the group, and found out that it actually existed. I mean, I've been a fan of the show about only 3 years and today is like, the best day I've had as a Simpsons fan. It's so cool to see the posts from May of 1990 by the people who were totally unsure about how the Simpsons show would be in the future (I mean, that's a year before I was even born... I wonder how the original posters of this group are doing now...)

Anyways, I'd like to say that I'm so glad to find this historical website that I feel has a lot of value - 18 years of the show's history in a numerous pages of threads here! It just makes me wish I was born 15 years earlier. The question is, could we like, revive how bustling this group once was? I'd like to see this website becoming active again... but it kind of seems to be a pipe dream. By the way, great job information compilers! Kudos to you all!

Now that's a reply in the ol' a.t.s spirit. <g> He sends a friendly message to the group and the first reply is nitpicking about the geek terminology.

No wonder it's so quiet here nowadays. ;)

I'm sorry if you misunderstood me. I meant as this alt.tv.simpsons website.

Your internet must be broken. Take it back to the store and ask for an internet that works. Don't be dismissed! As a consumer, you have rights!!

Right. Back when I got my first computer, I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay the mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah.

I find that offensive!... wow seriously... mouse or keyboards, what the world has came to?

You are not registered yet. I can tell because I cannot see your postings.

Let's talk! 100%! Why not! (Are you familiar with this Simpson reference?)

Isn't it amazing that if you search snpp.com, you can find a phrase that will fit any situation? Also when I searched 'Homer fat fingers' to find this quote, this sponsored link came up:

" Looking for Fat Fingers ? Find almost everything on eBay! "

Well I looked, and there were none there. What's that all about?
