I'm pretty sure he was before your time. He came over shortly after Castle, MissManners and Menty brought Donovan and I over from The Comicon.com Gutters. The three of them showed up, trolled the shit out of that subforum and I immediately followed them back to see wtf this was all about.
There was QUITE a to do about my arrival here. Dono followed, and "Pickle" soon showed up with "Frank Carrera". The two of them posted as "Dark Pickle" and "Frankie" at the Gutters, and that was "Pickle's" first name here at TK.
His real first name is Jeff. He got into the dual spirit with me and between the two of us we had a bunch of accounts that tried to "troll the trolls" so to speak. Unfortunately for TK, I got pretty good at the dual thing, at one point having over a hundred active accounts that did a pretty good job mixing things up. That was circa 2005 and on.
Once most of the Guttersnipes realized I had left The Gutters for good and set up residence here they started to drift over to see what was going on.
People that appeared from the Gutters were many. Like Dono, Pickle, Siren (who Jeff was girlfriend/boyfriend with) until Pickle met Mirah. He actually went out there and hooked up with her in real time. That was quite a TK event.
Lots of other stuff happened, but, Jeff was a spam king. Learned from Gagh and was as good or better. We all took refuge in what became the Badlands, as an alternative to the Mine Field. Posters like Gear, Ilyana, Dual, Dirk Funk, Yub and many others turned that forum into a literal cesspool of spam. At one point there was even a thing called a "Spamstitution."
Anyway I'm rambling, but Pickle basically followed me over here from Comicon, put up the 4th highest number of posts in the history of TK and is known as one of the a;ll time assholes of the board . I dont remember them all, but several of his accounts were: Dark Pickle, Dork Pickle, The Dork Lord, Harry Balzac, and many many more. Good times. He no longer posts here, hasn't for years. Was part of the "Great Exodus" after Chuckie started in with his "New Age Postingzzzz" dual bullshit. That started around 2013 and pretty much drove every former good poster off the board. They still say as long as he continues to post here they will never return.
There's a lot more history. I'm happy to share it, but it's a LOOOOOOOONG ass story.
