May I ask, what does Dashing stand for?

 Well, it's actually a bit of a long story. The old forum, back when it was on forumer (linkage), was a Mario Kart forum. When I made it, it needed some kind of catchy name. Thinking of Mario Kart: Double Dash (the most recent MK game of the time, because hey, this was nearly 5 years ago), I played on the word 'dash' to create 'Dashing'.

Then we moved the board when forumer became extra terrible and people had gotten bored of the MK-ness. Thus, this forum became general discussion. We keep the 'Mario-isms' with red skins and Mario characters in images.

So yes, there's your history lesson. Yay. :3


And no problems with the warm welcome. Warm welcomes are always the best. :3

Interesting story you have there.

Good decision on switching hosts although I haven't used Zetaboards or Forumer before.

 Zetaboards is a lot more reliable and efficient than Forumer. I wish I could get a copy of the Forumer database though for all the old posts. Oh well, it was only 60,000 posts. =.=

You make it sound like the MK-ness lasted a while. :P
