A Bit of Basilmarket History

[header]Preface[/header]
[b]Warning[/b]Lot of text, this is nothing but nostalgic circlejerk. move on if you're not inclined.
[b]tldr[/b] found this thread on my old computer, moving stuff from it to my new one & just wanted to share this

Hi Hi Basilers, some of you have probably been around for ages
and some of you are pretty new so I wanted to give you a bit of outdated history on Basilmarket
so I found this thread on my old computer and decided to blow off the dust on an old thread called [b]Past and Present Basilers that shouldn't be forgotten[/b]
I had saved with some light editing/censoring
credits @LiLSquiggy75

*clears throat*
This is not my best effort, I have probably missed some vital names, try not to sue me. Created totally out of boredom. I was originally going to mess around and store this info on my computer for future purposes but I've been asked by a few people to release it. So here ya go.
Apparently some people keep pming me over and over. I'll repeat it
I have probably missed some vital names
OK?
give me a break

Look i am really sorry if i have missed some names.

@Rollerblading Do whatever you please

[header]Back in the day[origin][/header]

Most of these people have quit and some still post. Be on the lookout for them.

@Anselm - Wow this guy makes the BEST COMICS. Ranging from the 'Basil Card Game' to "Basil Chaos". If you've never seen one of his comics, then you've been missing out Big Time. Retired a few months back. Posts every once in a while.
The drawings are really nice
@Mastavinh: Started Using '~Sigs~' after his posts. Eventually everybody copied him with their own kind of sig. Then he got banned for doing it. This guy has left his mark. The 'No Sigs' rule was implemented after he was banned.
@Ohmehgawd(John) - You know how people don't like attention oars? Well this was what he was according to Audrey.
@magexandie (Andi) & Triish (Karen) - Past Queens of the chat section.
@lilbabyviet (Rachel) - Cute Basiler, Very active, [past] made a thread (competition) for people who wanted to be her "panda son/daughter".
@metrolink (William) - So you thought Freezepop created the 'Introduce yourself' thread? -buzzer- nope. Created the original 'Introuduce yourself' thread lasting 250+ pages
@MAC2222 - The Original 3rd person talker, was here before all of our current basilers so not a lot of info can be found on him. He was probably here before Summer '06 Quit time is not sure unless somebody can contribute. BasilID is still here so go look it up.
@Sheepyness - Our Basic Basil News Reporter, posts all different kind of weird news. Currently extinct at the moment? Haven't seen her round in a while
@Hapymapling: The original Basil teddy bear.
@JustinRain: A ranger, [was] looked up to by a lot of Basilers Until it was leaked that he hacked for a few levels. Reminds me of Sandra, you hack for a while and everybody decides to make big news of it.
@Jock - well lets see i'm going to describe him based on the posts and from what i have left of my memory. Back then when there was still the HA - NON HA topic on whether it was good or not. I'm guessing Jock was a strong supporter non - HA and caused lots of people to hate him. And uh that's it im guessing. Extinct.
@fryingpeanuts (nosnit, tinsonzhu) <-- Was Santa Clause The creator of "Drop your pants. I have a gun"
@Ali4z - reminded me of a younger sandra/Paaaz[vicky] mix. Wonder what happened to her
@CrimsonFate - Faintly remember his name, supposed big time flamer
@xxSyKoxx - Been on basil for a while, friendly, Good friend of Vaust. Great moderator.
@Vaust - One of the first that said white knights were more consistant and didn't lose out against crusaders or dragon knights. Very popular in the Warrior Section

[header]and so The Present[/header]

@13Needles (Nathan) - Yes you are up here because you are awesomeSeen this basiler around a lot, don't know what to put in fear of choosing wrong words. Mysterious, Posts a lot of poems. Random but nevertheless Interesting.
@Attycus (Tracy) - MASTER PHOTO EDITOR, very artistic. Don't know much more about Attyca. Joined Basilmarket early '05[wow oldie ] but didn't join the chat section for sometime. Best known for her awesome pics
@Aznmagicx91 - posts on basil often, [From What I've Seen]usually makes meaning posts instead of trying to posts on the '1st page' unlike SOME people [Message towards ppl who refresh the 'chat' section every 2 secs in hopes of getting on the 1st page] Cool~
@AznSeal [Naixin] - Normal guy who's happened to become 'famous' on basil. Many people accuse him of being an attention [ oar ] but he's only become famous cause of the basilers noticing him and making threads such as 'What is an AznSeal'.
Avid SSBM[Super Smash Bros melee] Player. Amazing hair,[apparently what made him noticed] [I know who he's marrying on Monday -cough-cough]
@BokuWaomar [omar] - A moderator at Basilmarket. Married to Sandra. Maintained the General Problems FAQ thread and was a good little man. Became a mod [maybe?] due to his smart judgement. He reported unwelcome things on basil instead of everybody else ,back then, that quoted the 'bad things' and spammed 'Yu Break da Rules!'
@DarkestDeity (John) - Yes the Kitty, makes kitty sounds/text followed by 'Human Translations'. Well know by past basilers, Meow(isn't this cool?)
@DeathPsycho - Became known for his remake of Battle Royale renamed 'Basil Royale'* using our own basilers [that post in chat *cough*]

* Basil Royale is a Japanese movie? I consider 'Basil Royale' a newer version of Sandra's "Basil Adventures"

@EluNirvelli - Another mod at Basilmarket and the only female one. Mindstormer has a crush on her? Yes? no? maybe so? Don't hurt me mindstormer Made a FANTASTIC magician guide [hmm fantastic seems like an underkill, too bad basilers that make guides don't know big words] Don't know much about mods since all they do is moderate This is a message to all mods! POST MORE! The auto ban is wack >_>, I got banned for putting six periods in a row, it was meant as a pause, not a bad word.
@Freezepop(Audrey) - hmm so many things I can say about her yet so less considering I don't know her personally Nice caring Basiler. Like many people have said before, she can lighten up threads with a single post. Owns my ass [and all of urs] in iSketch. Very old school and I mean really, the only connection we have to the past basilers who have been known by few and unknown to MANY. Supposedly dated Char?[cych] Don't know fershure. Don't hurt me Audrey L -trembles- Wonder what happen to poor Char
@F0f0/v2/v3(Andrew)- Nobody should EVER forget about him, massive flamer, you get on his bad side you get owned. Supposedly 'quit' but I'm sure he's still around. Apparently he and MindStormer don't get along. -twiddles thumbs-
@ItsJakex3 - Hmm lets see. I know he should be up here but don't know what to put or say All i can say is that he's the most feminine male I've seen. Past Flamer
@Jinxiy - [Lyndsey]
@Jinxiy said: " Some know me as a hard-ass spelling nazi, others for my musical taste; some for my status in Windia and my friends"

Well there ya go folks, but whenever I see her, she's getting into a very deep argument with someone about something and uses big words like rambunctious and prevaricate and all that mumbo jumbo. She's nice J or is she? Who cares she's cool. One of the maturest Basilers here.
Screenshot of Paaaz and her in action[picture of random comments]
Memorable?

@LillaSandra // @Mairu - Sooo, you wanna know about Sandra? She Loves Bacon (*cough*Boku - that's your cue*cough*) Made the "Death Note" and "Basil Adventures" comics (starring: LillaSandra, Vanilla, Freezepop, and MAC2222)
A part of the Basil Adventure Comic
Great helper, made an AWESOME patch guide when maple got a do-over with lots of portals and stuff. Level 5 helper [back when levels were here] Was slightly known on basil until a screenshot of her godmoding was leaked out on basil causing hundreds of threads being made about her and how she was 'a hacker' [go ask a old basiler for a screenshot, I remember somebody took a screenshot of the chat section that was full of 'Sandra Topics' I faintly remember somebody Flaming Sandra in every single one of those topics.
Ok [back] when this happened I pmed this guy and asked him why he was flaming Sandra *True fact approaching* He told me that she KS'ed him and ruined his chances of becoming a Hermit. PSSSHHHH
After this incident, Mr Basil implemented the 'No Talking about other Players' Rule. Perm banned on 'LillaSandra'
Uses Mairu now, doesn't post as often L
Oh yeah, one of the oldest basilers, Has Boku watching her back.
@MindStormer [Eric]- Ahh Mister Mod Mindstormer[ooh 3 m's] manages that uber long and confusing Technical, GameGuard Error Thread, and the one that has to be bumped up to the front page every month, the Patch Problem Thread. Very smart guy, knows a lot of stuff [you can tell by looking at his threads]. Wasn't surprised when they released the mod names and his name was up there ^_^ He'll most likely post in your thread if you have technical probs.
@Paaaz (Vicky)- Yes Paaaz should definitely be on this list. She makes the most wittiest posts. Sarcasm rocks. Useful Poster, can rock a thread with a single post, funny. Apparently a lot of [male]basilers think she's 'hot'. Became known for her "body tight avatar".
@PaulPker121 (Paul) - You already know he was going to be put up here so don't give me that >_> Basiler who talks in 3rd person and I consider him MAC's Successor. Try not to call him a MAC Wannabe [even though he might be] If he stopped, the 3rd person speaking might die out. Besides I've gotten used to him being the '3rd person'. And for all those people that call him a MAC Wannabe, just don't, stop trying to act like you know MAC or were even around when he was there.
@Sakana [Tracy] - Ever notice how people always say HI SAKANA when she enters a thread? Yeah you know who i'm talking about, the lady in all green. Wasn't always famous. Reached fame on Basil when she supposedly 'died' Her cousin thought she had died due to a joke. itsjakex3? made a thread about it on basil reaching many basilers and causing lots of responses and outrages. When she returned 'alive' she was greeted with open arms into the Basil SpotLight.
@Shishio - Similar with Mastavinh, had a special signature of his creation. Always says "yes", after his comment. Perm banned from what I've heard, not sure, yes. FusionBar'er now Traitor =/
@Vanilla - Extinct, barely posts [These species of famous AND helper basilers has died out. Made an SUPERB STR CB Guide. A very famous cb icon in the past, quit basil maple a while back. <-Reasons not specified. RIP Vanilla. Hopefully they'll find your DNA in mosquitoes that are trapped in Sap one day so they can take it out and revive you like those dangerous beasts in Jurassic Park. Yeah random moment.
@Wintersflame - Yeah you know who I'm talking about. The purple basiler with the sorta bad attitude? He wasn't always like that. He was once a cool guy. He talked about his outside life before. I remember a few months back[more+] when he posted about a fight he had on basil. He had a gf and somebody liked her too. Well the younger classman that liked her kicked him and embarrassed him infront of everybody. They both started to fight and was about to beat the guy down for one last time until his gf was begging him not to. Strange how I remember that story huh? I also remember meeting him in maple that night and asking if he was the guy that posted the story on basil, he said yeah and invited me into his guild. Nice guy eh? Wonder what caused the personality change.

@LimuSocoBobo -
[quote=LimuSocoBobo] said: "Well, we all know about my name and how that came about. I was one of the leaders of the Bera Glitch Orbis Party Quest strike. I spent countless hours making anti-Glitch Orbis PQ threads (and arguing in other glitch OPQ threads) on BasilMarket, trying to explain to others the effects of their actions on themselves and the community as a whole.
When BasilMarket EXP came into existence, I had a boost of motivation in helping others on BasilMarket. I posted several helpful threads and replied to countless threads in order to help other users on the website. As a result, I was usually the "Week's top Basiler" by gain of exp per week. I quickly became a "Lvl 5 Helper" and I still continue today to help everyone out as much as possible even though Basilmarket EXP is gone. However, most people would rather call me a stickler for rules rather than someone who helps. But it is not my place to force them to change their perspective.
More recently, I had several threads up in the General Maple Story section about my scrolling failures. I destroyed most of Bera's Red Katanas (that were for sale on Basil & in FM). Only two out of around 40 or 50 survived. And even those had failed scrolls & missing slots on them. This failure caused me to retire from Maple for a bit and be more active on Basil.
During this time, I posted in the Chat section more than I had ever before. I got to know a lot of other Basilers, including the "famous" ones. I posted in many playful threads. I remember when there was "Hug a Basiler" "Cuddle a Basiler" etc. I began posting pictures of my afro in some of the "post a pic" threads. This got a lot of responses, even from Naixin (AznSeal) himself, the Hairstyle King of Basilmarket[/quote]

I'm not sure if you can consider me "famous," but that's my Basil Story so to speak

Great basiler, made a great change in maple[opq glitch protest and red katana]

[b]Attention seekers:[/b]
@aznseal -thinks because he uses encyclopedia dramatica he is the top gun. deny's being an attention oar but everyone knows he is. think his hair is cool (difference of opinion) an avid SSBM fan and attends tournaments. likes to post about personal life on basil market and profil3. treats both as his myspace. recently has sort of cut down on the attention threads

@ItsJakex3 -another attention oar. thinks using stolen /Fight Club/ images from other sites makes him the best. often changes his basil avatar (i have no clue why) most of them are easily seen as made from banned story. also claims his parents are dead which i believe is a load of bs. once said that saka died (i will not say her name) which was proven false. as soon as that happened said it was a sister or cousin that called him. im not sure, i have bad memory. also claimed to have randomly spent the night at @LillaSandra's impossible because of where she lives, and is just an example of attention oaring.
@ItsJakex3 said:
Also, my real parents are quite frankly, dead to me
how much bs an attention oar can spew

@eliteguard-abused the report function to gain basil exp before it was discovered, when i confronted him via basil PM he insulted me several times, and refused to listen to reason. afterwards i was tempa-banned from basil with no reason which lead me to believe he was one of the mods.

[b]Basil Addicts:[/b]
@LillaSandra -is known for quite a few things. usually first to answer chat topics, a high level CB in windia, admitting to something hurtful in the past, living in a far away country, having an annoying sister, also for being a hot person since most basil market users are aged between the ages of 12 and 15 with raging hormones and 90% of them are AZN (big difference between asian and AZN)so unfortunately its not really saying much. she is also is/was lurker in /Fight Club/ also a tidbit of info i have been told by sandra while talking to her that i was not aware of, and she said she does not care if basil market community knows, she is Bi.

[b]Generally well known people:[/b]
@jock -made maaaaany ANTI-Holy Arrow threads doing comparasons and other things. also flaming any thread where a poster said HA is good, which leads me to the next person.

@babiness - made many pro-HA threads because she messed up her cleric and wanted everyone else to mess their clerics as well.

@sheepyness -reporter of weird and funny news

Helpers:
@anselm -makes a good comic. apperently is a good artist as well.

@divine619 -a great artist. attempts to be funny and enjoys helping others around Chat section

@vaust -another warrior helper i hear. currently termp/perm banned on basil, or just lurking

@EluNirvelli - i hear is a very helpful in mage forum, made a good Explosion first build for F/P mages

@wolfjonin - i hear very helpful in warrior forums, made a very detailed all three jobs 'swordman paths' guide, including 3rd jobs

@bokuwaomar high level WK in khani, hated hackers before it was cool, i also believe he gives great warrior advice

@azntom -another in detail warrior guide, answers warrior questions from time to time

@Mindstormer -has a helpful PC advice forum. also seems to have a very high level mage on the same world as me

@ali4z -kind of like Mindstormer, except more helpful(to me at least) spends less time on MS, and most important of all likes similar games as me

@fakefirex -his guide "on how 2 git wimminz" really moved me. there is so munch i didn't know

[b]/Fight Club/ lurkers (this means if you try to argue with them, you will lose)[/b]
@THIESSEN - honestly? no clue
@hatakeichigo -honestly? no clue
@imogene -also plays guildwars and has stopped going on basil as much
@VirgilDiablo -has broken rule 1 & 2 dont, know why
@F0F0 -currently banned and i belive is on his 3rd account. (yes, it is a guy) also is a master debater
@RiseofHarry -i have doubts as he was known to use something else. also underage B&

[b]People who wish they weren't known yet are:[/b]
@13needles -all i can say is seems to share his account with a female. i suspect a sister or maybe he is a schizophrenic drag-queen O_O

@FREEZEPOP -she is a very nice person that used to pop up in most chat topics, to brighten up the mood. i talked to here recently and she said things are looking up. i hope that means she will go on basil and make comments more often

@Mastavinh -the first person to use a signature in basil market. apperently got perma-banned for it

@sakana -generally being a good person much like FREEZEPOP, seems to know ItsJakex3. also had people obsess about the pictures she posted which were not of her, but of her cousin. there was also an incident involving one of the known attention oares, and him posting that sakana died, which was later proven to be false, and just a cry for attention

@Skye -havent ever seen her post, but she runs a good site on a site that i would get autobanned for posting

@ame -made the basiler users pics post and maintained it more or less. (im stil waiting for the person to add my second pic)

@Glenn -wrote in bold only, and i believe obsesses over butter

@MAC222 (not sure about basil id)-generally spoke in third person which made several basil members go crazy for. i believe he stopped lurking basil market for a while

@DarkestDeity -remembered as a person whos basil avatar resembled a cat, and himself wrote a sound that felines would make (ex: Meow, Prrr) followed by what he was going to say in parenthesis. seems to have came back and now types normally

@triish -had the sexiest basil avatar that looked something like this

@lala19191919 -similar to FREEZEPOP, however i can not confirm this as it came from an interview with the actual person and i have never seen her post[/quote]
