you know, despite it all, this is still my fave site. Especially considering how supportive people have been today!

he created a few personas and you have to understand that his posts were all wind ups (mostly). i last spoke to him in pm form a while ago, seems like he got banned from dogsonacid and posts on an offshoot site that's basically that site's beakdotcom. but that was almost a year ago. i've never figured out if he's totally lying or not but i can definitely say that he likes all the music you listed and he really likes wong kar wai as well, so he's cool in my book.

this i'm not convinced by. what was so great and funny about this site then? it's not that different now. given it's not exactly the same, skytree is gone and we don't have those topics at 3 am where everyone talks about the nature of love and how the warble ten seconds into roygbiv makes them cry, but i think the spirit is still the same.

and poop threads have always been the bread and butter of this place, i personally get hearty lols out of them.

ilkae is rad....

i somewhat agree but it certainly doesn't help matters to bellyache about it.

I think the biggest killjoy has been the bannings.

i remember seeing a few articles written by him as well... in reasonably big publications. so i think that kind of shoots down some fo the doubt people had when he mentioned off-the-cuff that he was 'oh and i'm working on a piece for the guardian' :laughing:

lol what like the article in people or whatever that encey linked? i showed jswift that, it definitely isn't him. also lol at people on here thinking he was burial...

i would really take everything he said with a big grain of salt...i'm sure he does some kind of writing professionally, maybe, and it's possible he writes for well known publications, but he really was fucking with you guys most of the time. why do you think he let me have his account to post about articles he wrote for fake cheese magazines ffs

lol

is that an earring?

what's wrong with ilkae exactly?

and lol at people getting worked up about forum participants..

who gives a fuck really, stop clicking threads if you don't like reading them.

shit it's tauboo.

Tis.....

  ieafs said:

heh is that him?

 

i just realised that for some reason in the back of my mind i always sort of imagined him as liam howlett circa 1992...

no kidding, i expected him to be blukier....

jamiroquai

ex-model grime producer philosopher audiophile writer sophisticated wind-up merchant troll bullshitter.

posts were normally tl;dr

i miss being able to harass and troll him. i don't even know. he was, basically, a watmm hero.

FUCK YES!!!

it seemed like he was a pathalogical something - maybe wannabe? When he talked about making video games I could tell his understanding was only half there. Interesting character nonetheless. Those pbn-skytree-jswift philosophical threads were epic.

Also, JSwift knew his shit when it came to Old Skool. I remember several long threads celebrating the whole scene and reminiscing. That was nice.

it's not just skytree, various other people are gone (rake, vik, jswift, planetoid, etc etc etc). i don't really miss the psuedo-intellectual topics, but i do miss the hilariousness; there really were funnier threads back then, i feel like.

but, as i typed those words, it occurred to me; i was 21 years old, then, and i'm 26 now. maybe i've just matured?

well, i don't often talk about it

i would love to make a sitcom based on jswift, tftt, and ulillillalia sharing a small flat
