| 1915 | Article | Mr Magic | I enjoyed talking about stuff with members like Celeste and Xe-A-Thoul. I hope I hear from them again someday. | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 09, 2015 | |
| 1916 | Article | Benjanime | I honestly miss the golden days of the site, that is though in all obviousness that I could have done without Debrisstorm's constant scoffing at the autism spectrum. Articles were actually worth reading, even if one or two misspellings were spotted (First we had the your/you're problem and now people are saying suppose instead of supposed). Nowadays it's a treasure to find someone post an article on a subject that hasn't been done to death, so I usually sniff around both RJ and RD article archives to keep a good eye to make sure I don't immediately take an article idea from someone else when I'm not aware that more of the same exist. Anyway for those of you wondering I apologize greatly for the odd hiatuses in not writing articles. I have more to come! I promise! | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 09, 2015 | |
| 1917 | Article | Caps 2.0 | A wonderful article, vkimo, but then again, you've never written a bad one. I still have authority on RetroJunk as a message board administrator and content editor, but I don't really post on the message boards anymore. I still submit videos and movie pages, but I stopped writing for RJ in 2013. My last few articles barely got any response, positive or negative. It hurt, especially with the interview I did with Jewel Shepard. It was an interview I was very proud of, but hardly anybody read it. I'm now writing on Pop Geeks, where I've continued my retro articles and celebrity interviews. Pop Geeks was created by a friend of mine from my early days on the Internet who I reconnected with on Facebook several years ago. She initially invited me to look at the site as a viewer, but when I told her I was looking for a new place to write, she said she'd consider it. I wrote an audition piece for the site and she accepted it. That piece became my first article "10 Comedy Albums To Fall Asleep To". It was followed shortly thereafter by my first interview for Pop Geeks, which was with Catherine Mary Stewart. It was a return to e-mail interviewing for that, but that's what she preferred. I resumed the phone interviews the following month by speaking to Jamie Rose. I've subsequently interviewed Ginger Lynn, Ellen Foley, Michelle Johnson, Lita Ford, Teresa Ganzel, J.J Cohen and Lesley Ann Warren, with several more interviews potentially in the works. They've gotten a lot of Facebook likes...I doubt they would've gotten any response on RetroJunk. This was a wonderful piece of history, vkimo, and I'm glad it's doing so well. | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 09, 2015 | |
| 1918 | Article | Vaporman87 | @Ben: It's cool bro. Life happens. This article makes me wish I had registered much sooner. I didn't pay much attention to the forum during my lurking years. Just the articles and comments mostly. Even so, it was obvious that the scrutiny was always present. Yet I still saw fit to submit stuff with no pictures. Derp! | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 09, 2015 | |
| 1919 | Article | vkimo | Vapor- Pretty sure you have the highest scoring article with no pictures haha | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 09, 2015 | |
| 1921 | Article | blueluigi | Great article all the way. It really hits the nail on the head on Retrojunk's history. If there is one thing that I would change are a few inaccuracies. Retrojunk's familiar design that we're all familiar with came along in 2005... not 2007. I first stumbled across Retrojunk at around 2004, but officially joined in 2005. I remember a lot of moments that came around with this site. Members like Reaper spamming the forums with his Fried Oreos Club, DucktalesFan1977 posting about his 80s memories and talked about how much the 90s sucked (though eventually as the account got banned and he registered as gustogummi... he did a complete 180). Sonic64 with the way he points out the obvious and how he argues with others about why we shouldn't hate Sonic or disagree with the things he likes... and how Mezase Master, Xe-A-Thoul, and others gave him what he deserved. It had it's good moments and sometimes bad moments. But in the end, I think it's one of the most diverse sites I've seen throughout the internet. Some of the autistic members on the site were one of the main reasons why I left the site a few times. Not that I don't like autistic people, mind you... and I used to enjoy poking fun at some of the autistic users who came on before. But there was a time where it got to a point where the autistic users just made the site that much less enjoyable, and so I decided to leave for a little while because of it. | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 09, 2015 | |
| 1928 | Article | Vaporman87 | Gee... you didn't strike a nerve with this one or anything. LOL | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 09, 2015 | |
| 1929 | Article | NLogan | Good ole Retro*Junk. With the GI*JOE star that I remember from when I joined in 2007. I came because of a random search that landed me in an article. I perused the commercials and TV intros. I stayed for the articles. I came during the transition from the stars to the thumbs up rating system. I generally steered clear of the nonsense in the forums. I left when the site was no longer about retro things and was entirely about factions complaining against each other. When I came back the site downgrade really turned me off and most of the things I liked about the Retro*Junk I knew were gone including most of my favorite users. It is nice to know they are not all lost forever and I have found some again here after being invited back to retro. | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 09, 2015 | |
| 1930 | Article | Vaporman87 | @NLogan: It's great to be able to get to know some of the veterans of RetroJunk for those of us who weren't in the mix for some time. I'm glad your here with us. | Remembering RetroJunk | Feb 09, 2015 | |
