@ZombieOverlord: I'm not above it if the occasion arises, but I don't, for example, go about saying stuff like "get out of here <insert name of semi-famous new basiler here [you, notkelly, notzach, luscious, etc]> you're not funny, <insert name of old famous basiler here> was funnier/better/cooler"

Yeah, that's the word.
My vocabulary has been pretty rusty lately for some reason.
[quote=Segumisama]-original five moderators (except @misacorp lol, but I still love that sexy kid anyways)
-mrbasil
-most of the past mods (except for jouninwolf, mystixmagic, slntdeath, etc.)
-dimo (obvious reasons)
-MAC, paulpker, Mastivinah, imtwocats, lilsquiggy, holymythos, aznseal, devilofroses, skalz, freezepop, etc.[/quote]
You're one of those old people that love talking about "the good ol' days", aren't you?
Back in my day, there was def a basil famuz pplz group.
[quote=qtprincessxoxo]Anyone who I recognize is famous enough to me
@Krill I can't seem to remember the name of your old account. It's bugging me. I swear it's something along the lines of Pecan[/quote]
Carrot, Pecan, BlitzShrimp, Kyeh, and a number of alts that are now decommissioned.
wakarimasen lol
the music snobs are all famous to me
Thechingsta
@NotNotKelly: Mission complete
[quote=audio]i think the concept of "basil fame" used to be a lot more prominent whenever custom avatars were still a thing since that used to be the main way to get your posts noticed
now that we've lost that feature i feel like the preeminence around certain basilers has deteriorated and it's gotten to the extent that there are very few famous faces in these parts anymore. sure, a handful of people are fairly well-known but they're not openly reputed like they might have been a couple of years ago
i used to talk to a couple of the allegedly-famous basilers back in the day i guess but i never really broke into that "clique" myself
sidenote i've also noticed that basil cliques are virtually nonexistent anymore which is surprising when they were so ubiquitous just a year or two ago, which is a good thing i suppose? i feel as though in turn it's sullied the communal/friendly ethos that used to exist though like i'm noticing much fewer open friendships via people's posts[/quote]
Mhm.
And really the only "basil clique" I've seen is the one of people who were "here since the beginning."
I feel like they sometimes post "Omg! Remember all these cool basilers?" that no one else will remember, and they quote each other and say, "yeah, those were the days, back in (I don't know, 2006 or 2007?). Do you remember this guy too? Yeah, he was so cool!" And they nominate old basilers who never post anymore for basil awards... that's the only "basil clique" I've seen and most of them aren't well-known at all.
basil famous? dats pathetic its all about being tumblr famous

@pinoymystic: Yeah!
I'm hoping there will be something interesting happening soon, even if it's an annoying poster.
Mods.
People who post frequently.
People who post frequently but type like this: lol wut are you even sayin
But for the most part, nothing funny is ever said anymore. Poor Basil. How lackluster you've become.
being basil famous doesn't mean a bean
@xDracius: 2 basilers now.
@Luscious: 3!
This is going well!
@DrHye 's my bud, and I know the guy decently.
Pretty much everyone else has been mentioned already.

[quote=SgtGrif]I don't know. The only guy I can think of right now is the one that always puts "xD" at the end of his posts.[/quote]
I've seen him around. He seems to like mirrors. xD

l0ljk. no one remembers me.
@CoraKora: *half naked! Oh no my pecs are showing!
[quote=golatias]Nooo! I'm naked [/quote]
No you aint!
[quote=rarwr]To me, I'd say MegaZord, ZombieOverlord, and Pinoymystic, at least in the chat section. They leave comments that make you lul sometimes [/quote]
Why thank ya, ol' chap.
Although, MegaZord and ZombieOverlord are pretty hilarious.
Nooo! I'm naked
@golatias: Wait wat? *Looks at your players* Oooh there's that box! *snatches it*
[quote=DearAg0ny]Famous? This is pretty pathetic. You guys can't get lives so you make your own virtual world on a website. HAHA wow[/quote]
Your basil id keeps me from taking you seriously kk
I've been here for 4-5 years and don't know anyone famous but there are a ton of you I recognize mmmhmmm
[quote=UglierBetty]You're right.
For the past few months no one has been famous and it's all a big ball of dull threads.[/quote]
Wow, you're absolutely right.
I guess that's why I was inactive a few months ago.
yup, need that 'new wave' for sure man, that's wuts up
@CoraKora: My outlaw? Now who would do such a silly thing?
@TheZigen: mhm. I just made a thread about this kind of... oh dear that's kind of embarrassing.
But yeah. There are no big personalities as of late. I hope we're just at an 'in-between' state and there will be a 'new wave' of interesting threads.
[quote=UglierBetty]You're right.

SRSLY
that's why it got so easy to leave the site for a while, there was nothing interesting and everyone left
[url=http://youtu.be/_dV1NiMAcdo]My reaction to this thread.[/url]
[quote=TheZigen]i was under the impression that no one was a regular front-page poster anymore
then again, i haven't frequented the site as of late[/quote]

My home girl @Iceheart1111 quit for good.
I don't know where Camille went, but she said she was never coming back. (I had the feeling she hated me though... lol So I don't know why I called her my 'home girl')
I would say the people who talks a lot through the forum?
No idea to be more depth. :S
@golatias: Hahah I c y xD
I think someone stole your box dude xD
Depends on what "know" means.
@CoraKora: Most people know me as "that guy with the rainbow afro" [b]:[/b]P
[quote=golatias]her and jovial.[/quote]
Aren't you one too? xD
i don't think famous basilers exist lol
[quote=CoraKora]I dont no? But I do see a lot of familiar faces around the art section.[/quote]

the "previous generation" of ~famous~ basilers had a lot of my friends in it
