Some of you will recall that we actually purchased StreetHop when it used to look like this: http://web.archive.org/web/20021129002314/http://www.streethop.com/
Please remove it Jon.
Tupac-Online was the first real forum I joined, and that was during the days when Jon put a lock on this forum (I still remember how big of a deal it was when it said "registration has been opened! Get in now, before it closes again!")
But once I was able to get in here, I stayed, and so for nearly 2-3 years I lived, died, ate, and shat here. I remember this place was so popular that we had plenty of women posting here. I havent really browsed the forums lately but I don't see that anymore. Bella, Amani, meli, this one chick who went to depaul whose name escapes me...god damn, there were so many women who posted here. i thought it was revolutionary because back then i didnt think any women had time to waste on forums, and the fact that they did, and on 2Pac at that, really had me impressed/shocked/awed/pleased.
Then I got mixed up into other forums and other music and other artists, and for a time I pretty much just kept in touch with a few regulars off the forum, and right now my obsession with 2Pac is pretty much at an all time low.
But i guess that's life. In any case, when Jon hung it up I think 2pacboard as we knew it died and thus streethop, which had just been Rukas' little hip hop news segment until then, was officially born. and then when rukas changed the forum layout early last year i lost my 1000 or so extra posts that were done before the hacking. before that, those posts had managed to stay in our count even though we couldn't access them. but now, they're gone even in counts.
I don't feel any sort of connection to this place anymore. it's not the same and with the news about Dante, i don't think any 2Pac forum, whether it's here or makaveli-forever, will ever be able to recapture it.
consider this my goodbye? i dunno, perhaps.
five long years. damn z.
