Firday July 30, 2004 - Mainstream and post #1000

(Looks over at little red feather)

Well, well, well. Here we are at post 1-0-0-0!

The air seems so clear up here. This must be what flying first class feels like!

I remember my very first post, anywhere on the internet. It was on alt.multimedia.tk. It was a line from the Eagles:

“I found out a long time ago what a woman can do to your sole.”

For that humble beginning I have grown to post hundreds and hundreds of mainstream photos and links over the last 3 years here at the TMF.

I started my first website back in 1998 in an attempt to give something back to the community. http://homepages.go.com/~toyou444/tickling4fun.html (which you can access using the “wayback machine” located at: http://www.archive.org/web/web.php).

Those were the good old days. When you could post video clips and had unlimited bandwidth! Eventually I outgrew my space and started saving everything at tripod. Many of those pictures are still accessible right here at the TMF: http://www.ticklingforum.com/toyou444/ There you can also see my other great obsession…ticklish celebrities! In the past I had a full list of MALE stars too, but that did not make the transition to the TMF.

When tripod started shutting me down for being offensive(!) I started an e-group. Back in 2001 we had regular Wednesday night chats where members could suggest what video clips they wanted to see in the next update. At the time I had hundreds of clips saved from AMT and various other sources and would do themed updates! In addition another AMT regular Nick would also update some of his clips. Nick even had the password to update the group and he had clips that many of us would kill to have even to this day. I started several e-groups in an attempt to store all my clips on line…but I went through a purge in late 2001 and deleted all but the original group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/toyou444/ That group flourished even as Yahoo bought them out and limited what I could post there.

Eventually I found a new place to post the new mainstream pictures I was finding: http://groups.msn.com/Picturestotickleyou Unfortunately many of the original pictures have been lost and this group quickly reached its maximum limit of data/pictures. I started posting some new pictures at the Yahoo group but about 2 years ago quit that entirely. The process of finding saving and uploading got to be a burden to me in my private life. That is when I started just posting the links at the TMF. Since then many others have joined the fun and now there are five or six regulars digging for the mainstream stuff some of us love! For that I am great appreciative!

Now, three years after joining the TMF I find that I’ve posted 1000 times! I can’t imagine I had enough wisdom or items worth sharing to make it that far!

So let me say a great big thank you to all the folks behind the scenes who have kept this place running. The TMF is the single greatest thing I’ve encountered in this community. It is like the center of the tickling universe to me…the point from which all else is reachable. I will always be eternally grateful for it being!

I was going to run down the names of the people I have made “friends” with over the years too, but I fear I would omit someone by accident and offend them. So let me put out a big “THANK YOU” to everyone who has made my online experience so wonderful and makes me feel like I’m slightly less of a freak! LOL!

So why do a big, showy post just for making it to 1000? I’m not sure. It feels like an accomplishment. It feels like I may have done some good over the last three years. Plus now I can ease back a bit and wait for the next level. It was fun and continues to be fun!

Now then…on with the show!

1,ooo posts is one thing. 1,000 QUALITY posts is quite another. I for one appreciate all the time you've devoted not only searching for, but posting the links for all these pics. I know how tedious it can be searching for these pics. Congrats man, here's to 1,000 more!

Thanks ed!

As I've stated many times before, you were one of those guys feeding me mainstream links in the good old days and it will never be forgotten!

Thanks rajee!

Maybe I'll get to 8000 before I retire! LOL!

You the Man, Toyou! The original pioneer of mainstream pix. Not to mention the man responsible for about half the pix in the Ticklish Asian Women series. Mucho kudos and ALOT of appreciation for your thousandth post.

By the way, I would NOT suggest entertaining thoughts of retirement at this juncture. You're just getting started.

Congratulations, Toyou! I'm glad I was here to bear witness to your 1000th post. How is it that we both to go post pics (infrequently, mind you) at the same time? Alignment in the sky, perhaps? At any rate, thank you for all your contributions. I really loved your old homepages website when I first was on the Internet. Cheers, to you, Toyou!

Rxx,

I have no plans on going anywhere yet! I jsut can't imagine how long it will take to get to 8000+ posts at the rate I am going!

And thank YOU for all the great finds too!

CoM,

Great minds think alike? Or maybe twisted minds? ;)

Let's keep the lovefest going! I'm glad there are others like me who find the mainstream interesting and keeping digging for more and more! Keep up the good work too!

Everyone is giving such long posts, but I'll make mine short. Toyou444, you're awesome. You're one of the most important people in the entire community. Congratulations, I hope you get to 8,000 posts.

Hi toyou. Well done old buddy, I've always been rather impressed by your tenacity in the tickling world and your seemingly never ending quest for the off centre mainstream material. Always gratifying to see and quite often more enjoyable that the off the shelf stuff. Great to see one of the AMT old school showing the 'kiddies' how to rock.

Bravo!

Arkham :)
