If you happen to have any records of old mouse-over and subtitles, I'm happy to add them here so we have an archive of all the cool things we named our forum after, and somehow we cannot remember because the current one has been in place for so long :sun:
Feel free to suggest or talk about or quote or emptyquote new subtitles or texts! We'd like to have some variety here from time to time, as it is very important how the grey forums see us :devil:

New research has shown that forum titles are set to a maximum of 32 characters and mouse-over texts are limited to 250 characters.

BANNER ADS
In the past, we occasionally had banner ads rotating ads we made together for BYOB, linking directly to our lovely forum! In order to avoid having them lost in history, I collected them and want to archive them here, so we have a nice museum of ads - and of course can re-use them again to lure people into BYOB again!





























vv








Here are the threads I took these from for archiving purposes, if you happen to find even more threads and banner ads, tell me and I'll add it here!

Goons Are Gifts

lol I remember that one even
Also there was a dongarium time, not sure if title or mouse-over and not sure what the exact wording was, it seems to difficult to remember what we had back then


Goons Are Gifts

lmao

added all of those above, keep it going, we can travel into the past together!!


Goons Are Gifts


in it, voted 5


Goons Are Gifts

woah amazing slumpy, thank you so much
I remember the hell in pastel one, drat that was a bad time back then


Goons Are Gifts

Gonna make a mean thread and insult all of you dirty little FUCKERS that I love way too much to be mean to actually


Goons Are Gifts

Our current mouse-over was posted by bopeps in the chat thread iirc, about a year ago, too, around last sheep & wool festival obviously
Happy to get a new one in, there are so many good posts we can go for here

like here's my pitch:
butts lmao that lmao isn't part of the text it is me finding butts inherently loving funny

Kaiser Schnitzel posted:

BYOB: this is insane and very wonderful

It's the perfect description of byob

Jaguars! posted:

Wasn't it just BYOB: hi at some point? Or that might have been the mouse text.

I can't remember, but I can imagine! If anyone has any historic context, I'm happy to sort it into our by now sizeable collection of titles and mouseovers


Goons Are Gifts

Okay so the big post didn't really make it through, you can check the new hover text to see where it ended up at, but there is a rather low maximum number of characters for those, we just found out!
I kinda want to keep this for now because lol but ehm yeah we probably need a new one in longterm


Goons Are Gifts

Alright just for future reference, the admins have found out that the title box is limited to 32 characters and the description is limited to 250 characters, so we can work in the future with this!


Goons Are Gifts

spoopy titles needed, it's The Month


Goons Are Gifts

Kaiser Schnitzel posted:

BYOB: Bury Your Own Body

Oh hell yeah, maybe a super short scary story as mouse over to go along with that?


Goons Are Gifts

Yes!!


Goons Are Gifts

Spooky


Goons Are Gifts

We should probably dress up for winter and gifting season soon, anyone got an idea? I have the feeling people start seeing the halloween title and think we are doing criminal things in here and they must not find out


Goons Are Gifts

sk posted:

BYOB: i think about that quesadilla often

Honestly, same


Goons Are Gifts

Kaiser Schnitzel posted:

Bows, Yule, Orbnaments, Boxes Bells?

google THIS posted:

BYOB: Merry Chrismahanuquarankwanzakahtine To You

Kinda considering doing either of these two, but I can't decide, it's so much pressure

i think about that quesadilla often. this was in 2014

also this would be an s-tier subtitle imo


Goons Are Gifts

Yeah I'm gonna try this hold on


Goons Are Gifts

Should we get something fresh for the new year? Something that gives everyone a cheer for the exciting new year?


Goons Are Gifts

I love these butt based suggestions for some reason

BoldFrankensteinMir posted:

New forum subtitle please

Might be a great mouse-over, we do need a new title though, too


Goons Are Gifts

should just explode the character limit and do all of these

or use the short version of all of them
BYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOBYOB

This or the pokemon rap idea as mouse over, but I'll give it another day before changing it because lol

cruft posted:

The joke is that Finger Prince posted in the wrong thread, and GaG, not realizing it was a mispost, thought it was a really good mouseover text.

I assumed it was the wrong thread which is why it's so perfect, what could be more byob than :justpost:ing so hard that you end up in the wrong thread


Goons Are Gifts

the b stands for sex


Goons Are Gifts
