Xoxo! Those AFR days were fun until the bitter end. I think I was Ent Mod over there too. I wish I could recall but I can't. I am still looking for people who remember the great customizer ROCKMUNKY. Dude was my favorite next to Brian, but for completely different reasons than Walls. oh crap, the things that just come into your memory randomly. I was just thinking about nothing and recalled--you WERE mod at AFR in ent back as "AXL" if I remember. It was pretty close to the end of the joint, because mods were overturning and back at that place you'd see your constant sigs near the end of a mod period, like "therock56555 for mod of ___" and people would campaign almost. I wanted to be ent. mod and I don't know if I had a sig, but I do know I messaged you and kind of tried to butter you up and explain why i'd be a good mod etc. etc. I was 13 FFS! hahahahaa. Anyway I became mod of the ent. board after it rolled sure enough and thanked you but I believe your very reply was something polite but also outright saying while you thought I'd do a fine job, not to thank you as you suggested Joebloe420 or whatever. I dunno who you suggested. Back then the prior mod had some input--even on here if I remember right. So maybe we traded spots on here when I became admin but more likely I was remembering how I took over as ent mod at AFR Anvilaxehammer aka "Jupiter" (was his AFR name...he was a LOT younger than he said he was, too) was a longtime lounge mod who became admin and someone replaced him near the end there... I know I finished off as ent mod when the place shutdown and lobbied for the spot here--and may have had it before I was admin. I know that mods switched monthly or bi-monthly too so I dunno but you were definitely the last ent mod before me, and then it shutdown. Some members and I dug up some old photos over the last day or so including the infamous FZ Aaron Morgan d*ck flying into mouf photo And more funnies. Man those were fun times. 3am hackings that people who stayed up past bedtime got lucky enough to see, sometimes w/ boobies on the main WW site ...hahaha such a great time in boring life. Living in a small craphole town, aol was an escape for me every night come 7pm. I loved it. Late nights on AFR even at 11, 12 were so fun. People who seemed much crazier than they were like FROST posting on there... ah man such a good time. Scotty 2 hotty and matt pearson ;-0 if you can find any of ROCKMUNKYS customs, I'd be enternally grateful

Scotty 2 hotty and matt pearson ;-0 if you can find any of ROCKMUNKYS customs, I'd be enternally grateful I may be able to if you can recall the time period which he was most active (in making & posting) them? Also, did he make them over at AFR or during those forum days? I have some old hubs I find random WW/AFR stuff at sometimes. I also may know his email but have NO IDEA if he would answer it. Still so I think I recall a custom site that someone from WF ran and it had lots of photos from old customizers. I forget the names of my favorites, but back before Mattel and even Jakks began making full playsets, ringsets, etc.... A guy named "HBKkid" who may have even been admin at AFR had the most insane custom ring setup. I loved it. His customs weren't bad either. BAITY had some amazing work, but was a real a-hole about stuff...so many more names I forget spitfire was really good...he may be more WW days...

People who seemed much crazier than they were like FROST posting on there... ah man such a good time. Scotty 2 hotty and matt pearson ;-0 dude we were all 13! haha! i know that was the best part, too. the naivety of it all, no one really knew HOW to base an argument and the few "older" members aka 14-15 were usually fried or too goofy to even seem older! Do you remember "LSD" his name was Mikeay or something? Aim name Mikeay G ... i dunno if there were numbers. Posted a pic of 'himself' w/ a blonde chick who he said was his longtime GF. Later down the road admitted he was only 13 then, too. Had claimed he was like 18. hahahahaha. A lot of folks did that. I lied 1yr up for some reason. I think b/c I was 12 and forum signup at AFR said 13+, but I dunno though. being 13 was kind of the norm like you said. The funniest thing is I kept lying for years after, though. Just started because of WW and kept the lie going even in real life until I was about 16 or maybe 18--hahaha. The thing I want to post in here is a waybackmachine cap of The Lounge from AFR, and how it is IDENTICAL in nature to this place from an outsider glean (threads won't open). Topics that don't belong, unrelated content, lots of double-postings.... I think what we (as adults now, and longtime users) fail to realize is the majority of this place is young and naive. We are not. We've done this once before at AFR... just wait. I'll prove it. lol

I remember wanting to buy some of their work. ROCKMUNKY would have been around 1999-2000 I wanna say.

Oh yeah, do you remember his last name by some chance? I seem to remember last names more than first names (USUALLY) because guys on the boards would go by their last name off of the site, OR there were so many people w/ the same name (Rockmunky's name was Tim...your name is Tim....my best AFR/WF friend back then was Kammich/Tim.... it got confusing!) ...if I knew his last name I think I could find that site potentially... I remember full names for 2 customizers: KAIMH (kammich) and KDR (lmao I mean it was his initials, right? Even then I prolly don't remember how to spell it!) Do you by chance recall the one guy who almost specialized in Great Muta customs? Also made some AMAZING Steve Corinos? I can't for the life of me but it was an odd name... lots of numbers...random. Maybe even a lucha libre wrestler (or indie promo guy?) in his username. Hell his sn may have even had Corino in the title somehow? Anyway, that guy was unreal in the days of Jakks customs post-BCA. I recall people using sculpey and enamel etc. and doing some AMAZING things. I fiddled around and tried my hand at some Jakks customs when I was into making amiibo customs (those Nintendo figures) as well as customizing the Jakks World of Nintendo line since I STILL have probably ~100~ TTL figures dating back to when they first came out, + a ton of random head sculpts and random fodder/attire and stuff. It is so much harder than I would have thought (since I wasn't/am not too horrible at painting those little amiibo--or sculpting on them, even!) and then I look at the customs people make with MATTEL figures now?! crap. It's insane! Some of them are so much nicer than the actual Mattel makes once finished... the same obviously went for Jakks, but those were more like trophies or something. They were artwork. Almost all of the really good customizers made or made them to sell for "display purposes" which is totally understandable in hindsight... a lot of Mattel customs are easier to make for "play" I've heard. The Jakks ones were really impressive to me because of all of the sculpting those guys did... back then we'd get TTL 1-5 and SCSA would have the same chest sculpt or HHH would look terrible for 3 straight figures and those guys turned 'em into gold. Then sold them for upwards $100.... but yeah. I wanted to buy a few too but played with me figs.

ROCKMUNKYDOGG@hotmail.com was his email btw. I think I MAY have had a gmail of his since I was in touch with him much later than 99-00... he also used to be part of AFRWF and I got him to sign up for WFWF when I ran that section briefly. He was a really nice dude. I talked to him on aim a lot and he played guitar and had some similar tastes in music as Kammich & I so he joined our joke band. He was the "fifth member"...we made jokes about him. He was like the fifth beatle. I lost touch with him after that, really. I think that woulda been close to '06 maybe. I dunno. If I can find a way to log into that site I showed you, I have some old drawings he sent me and a full photo of him uploaded into the section of freewebs that stores things to put on the site (back when no one knew how to code, freewebs was thaaa bomb!)
edit: When GRAZ became Global Mod here for awhile, mainly because he was on at night (I think I was global mod for my first month or few months to make sure I didn't do anything stupid AND b/c I was a night owl and that was part of how hammer and kdr convinced jay to let me be admin replacement... this was after the game101 stuff, and other hijackings etc. so i think that was kind of protocol... for awhile I don't know if we added admins when someone would step down or be replaced, the new person would be just global mod, but anyway), I suggested Rockmunky first and i think he would have been given the spot, but declined it personally. GRAZ was also an off-site friend of mine but also posted a lot more, so was a better choice.
i wonder where Rockmunky went :/ He was really cool... i wish aim didn't die (RIP dec 15 2017 NEVAR FORGET!)...I could glean a lot of old contacts and emails from just one username i actually saved cell numbers, email addys etc. in....
