What happened to Yesterdayland?

raphael90 · 11-15-2003, 02:32 PM

I looked back about four pages worth and didn't see anything on this, so i figured hopefully it was safe to bring this up (if it has, I'm sorry).

But what happened to Yesterdayland...I know its gone but was there any specific reason it died? I thought it was a cool place!

Did I bring up a bad topic? If so, I'm sorry...didn't mean to.

What the heck is Yesterdayland?

raphael90 · 11-15-2003, 03:42 PM

Yesterdayland was a pleace that archived info on alot of old shows and cartoons from as far back as the 50's or 70's I think. Great place to find stuff on old cartoons and post about them with other people.

Incidentally Reznorite, I take it you are a NIN fan...do you like Pretty Hate Machine or hate it? Personally I don't like the lyrics, but I LUV the music. Sorry, just had to ask.

Back on topic...

...I loved PrettY Hate Machine's lyrics... thats my favorite NIN album...

raphael90 · 11-15-2003, 04:02 PM

Musically yeah its one of the best industrial albums I've heard topping Global Wave System and Circle of Dust's albums musically. I've listened Pretty Hate so many times I know I'm gonna make myself sick of it, just can't get enough of that late 80's synth vibe.

I didn't even know Yesterdayland had disappeared... Haven't been there in months.

Maybe the server was down when you tried to visit?

An archived form of Yesterdayland can be found by clicking on this link: http://yesterdayland.elsewhere.org/_._.html. It's pretty cool, the message boards don't work and neither does search and you do have to dig around for the memories a bit in most cases but if you loved the site it's better than nothing, IMHO.

I never had an account on YL but I constantly lurked around and read the forums/memories. It was a totally awesome site in its hayday but when the owners abandond it the place just became a flamers haven, pretty sad. The last few months on the message boards were ugly, they were just one giant stomping ground for the morons from the crap I saw.

**azure turtle** · 11-15-2003, 07:25 PM

So the site really is gone? Aww man. That's a shame.

That was a great site, and it's sad to hear that the forums came crashing down. At least we can still access archived versions of the site. Thanks for the link, NinjaGirl!

[color=violet]No probs, Azure. I was kind of crushed when the site went offline, so I was happy to find the archived version.[/violet]

Do I love it? DO I LOVE IT????? Buddy, I think Trent's earlier stuff kicks his Downward Spiral and on stuff's ass! Not only that, but "Sin" is quite possibly my absolute NIN track of all!

Ah... I remember seeing this website before! Krang sent me a link once when Planet Namek went under, and I was looking for some info. regarding DBZ. Gotta make sure I bookmark that this time around. Thanks, MTN.

I've never seen that site before, but it could be handy in the future. Thanks for the tip! I used to look around Yesterdayland, but I hadn't been on there in a while. I didn't even know it was no longer up. I'm learning so much today!

*Cascadia* · 11-16-2003, 04:33 PM

I have not been to Yesterdayland in a long time.

MTN889 · 11-16-2003, 05:00 PM

No prob.

Oh okay...that answers my question then.

Yes, 'Sin' is a killer track musically...
