Congratulations to our March Member of the Month: Fancy!
Your efforts and abilities have finally paid off, as we present this title to you, along with a free BBB T-Shirt. It’s our way of saying “Thanks!”
How did you find Big Blue Ball?
I followed VeryBoredMale to BBB when he had the infamous ”Blank White Profile Page” problem He and I would leave encrypted messages to each other in our yahoo profiles and when his ability to view them disappeared our game ended. This required us to seek out the best problem solving message forums around. I guess I rolled over into the corner and made myself comfy here.How did you come up with Fancy as name?
I purchased a domain name “FancyFrog.Com” so rather than use Frog as my username, I went with Fancy…its much more girlie.How long have you been using computers?
My first computer was a Jonos Escort (mid 1980’s) one of the first CP/M portables out there. And I sped along the dirt roads of the internet (later to be paved into a super highway) at a whooping 300 baud with a dial-up modem and I was thrilled when dad upgraded to 1200 baud for my 5th birthday. My games came on 8″floppy disks and, my first internet friends were found in IRC chat rooms and on Prodigy. Ok…I was really young and my dad was an original Geek but, those are my roots. So now when I am out in the field in Indonesia and connected to the internet via a satellite phone and a laptop…a few dropped calls don’t bother me at all.How long have you been instant messaging?
My instant messaging began about 10 years ago with ICQ (which I still use) and expanded to include Yahoo, MSN, Groove, and AIM. I haven’t tried any of the multi-messenger programs because I love a cluttered desktop.What’s your preferred instant messenger? Why?
Its hard for me to say which I prefer best since they all have some unique features and they all have bugs. I think I’d pick ICQ because you never forget your first love.What’s your favorite BigBlueBall section, and why?
My favorite forum is Yahoo Messenger….errr I mean What Makes You Laugh, I get those two confused all the time. I like to see people helping each other..its like going back to the basics of exchanging knowledge.Anything else you’d like to add?
Yeah…I’d like to thank you for allowing me to join the other Blue Ballers here and for the warm greetings from so many of you when I first arrived. Thanks guys!I’ll proudly wear my BlueBall shirt…thanks SpiKe! Do they come in pink?Congratulations, again, to Fancy! Your complimentary BigBlueBall T-Shirt is on its way!

April 8, 2006 at 4:23 am #141913Eagle_KiwiMemberHi FF, and congrats. π
YOU might not think you merit such an award…. but you’re biased – WE all know it’s deserved!
I’m really pleased that you (and Fan Club) have stopped in to join us – you’ve already contributed a heap already, and I hope the NEXT 20 years will see plenty more of the same, both giving and taking. πThank you for the fascinating background/bio at the top of this thread too. π
