What happened to changing the name to Vombpud?

It had been trademarked by Nike Sad

Deadly

But a google search only brings up two pages of references to Vorb...

Nike hasn't released their range of Vombpud nipple warmers yet, so there will be no reference on google... keep an eye out in spring though Double Thumbs Up

They're designed to fit inside a bra, furry-side facing nipplewards, to offer warmth to that sensitive part of the anatomy and to overcome embarrassing "show through" on cold days.

Oh, I thought it was just a symptom of your obsessive-compulsive disorder.

As my viccles said a couple of weeks back, "I've got CDO. It's just like obsessive compulsive disorder, but with all the letters arranged alphabetically. As they should be."

This history is edited! There's no mention of carrot based deviancy anywhere!?

Damned straight. Tama still owes me a sculpture (of me, made in carrot) for cleaning a particularly unlikely climb a couple of years back.

Mind you, I do exist in one of his computer games from way back, so that might do for the meantime...

I'm not sure. It was 19 years ago. Which means that they were written in basic. Probably on a 20MB hard disk that died decades ago.

But I guess it's possible that tama still has the source code.

I was the one in the trenchcoat that ran up and threw an exploding grapefruit at the player.

It was a special time in our lives. Tama and me were given mod access on a BBS in welly. So we went through the images section putting (individual) comments on about how we were disappointed at the lack of llamas in many of the images. Ah for the old days where "internet" meant "fidonet"

Well, over June 2008 Vorb received 74,000 unique browsers (3,900 a day)

2 months on and the numbers for August have come out - 88,000 unique browsers (4,300 a day) - holy moly. Full stats here
