For today, we have a screenshot from June 12, 2016.
Apparently not much ever happens on June 12 in my records, so here we have exactly when Pacman reached rank 22. He was the second user to do so, following Diglett two years prior. As I've complained about, it only took him so long because for whatever reason due to the ridiculous rank requirements, which I posted about in my other topic. Anyway before I start ranting about the old ranks, this is the screenshot Tomorrow we will move on to our 2014 examination.

No darkness? Waaah?
Thank you. I would look at his profile once a week to update the top posters list and that topic was there for like two years ago and I'd chuckle to myself every time because "Waaaah" is so much like him
Now it is time for a classic screenshot from June 8. This time we're stepping back to June 8, 2014. Starting Saturday I'll feature about a week of 2014 screenshots, so I guess this is a preview.
Despite looking pretty boring there's actually a lot going on in this one. I believe I just took it because of the "Lithium avatar glitch," which you can see happening to wolfasa over on the likes leaderboard. I have no idea why it would happen, but on occasion the page would load funny and various users would have the basic Lithium (the platform the MBs were based on) avatar. Being 14, I guess I thought documenting every instance of these glitches was amusing I was also on the MBs at 7:48am in this screenshot, which is... concerning.
Here you also get to see the top five most liked users. I honestly I had no recollection of the fact that wolfasa made it to fifth overall. I don't think he got farther? Guess we'll find out if I keep going through 2014 leaderboard screenshots. Skul, of course, was first from December 2012 until the end of the boards - I think I am glad I never had the opportunity to pass him. Tanner was second for some time, but became less active in late 2013 and I (and later Gideon) passed him. Gideon would go on to pass me, but I think when the boards ended he was fourth overall or something due to decreased activity (I was second).
You can also see a variant of the purple suit avatar I had then, with white pants. I think that was one of my more shortlived avatars
On to the MB home page, the thing I find most interesting is when the "Secret Sister Society and Undercover Brother Chat" as I think it was called was still in the minifigures forum. This was a rather large topic that ended up being moved to the community chat forum. In 2015 (I think) it was locked due to people posting inappropriate content. I don't think I posted there much myself, though I do recall posting there a little as 42Varda. My memory, however, is poor. The only other amusing thing on the home page here is the make a sword topic
In my tabs at the top, I see several of my classic topics, including "What Users Look Like" and "Is Keplers Voldemort." I should repost those.
For the June 10 screenshot of the day, we go to June 10, 2016 - the last June the MBs ever saw, though we didn't know it at the time.
Here we have my (benboy755's) top likes given. I took this because I'd somehow given Pacman exactly 6000 ( ). One thing notable here is that he was still rank 21 at the time. In case you'd forgotten (or weren't there) this is how the likes given and likes received pages would appear. I gave the most likes of anyone, and I believe had the most likes given to one user - I think I gave gollymolly 10,000 by the end but I'm not certain. Ancient history. I don't really have much more to say about this one.
For today and for much of the next week, we shall step back to this date in 2014 for our screenshots of the day. Today's, of course, comes from June 13, 2014.
This one just made me laugh, so I'm sharing it. Weird things would happen in LMB chatrooms, particularly newbies making bizarre posts. Here, Lizaponylover193, who, according to the archive, only was active in 2014 and made a total of 36 posts, is forever remembered for the weird post Zaney is quoting. An excuse to talk about Zaney himself is half the reason I chose this one, because just remembering this stuff makes me chuckle I think I mentioned Wolfasa in one of the very first screenshots in this topic. For whatever reason, Zaney was literally obsessed with Wolfasa. He would go around reading all his posts and posting in the same topics, calling him "Master Wolfy" or something like that. Wolfasa was kind of weirded out by it. My favorite moment was when Wolfasa and I were both Conquistador I changed my avatar (and signature?) to his and Zaney thought I was him. Man the MBs were surreal

How you gave me that many likes baffles me
I think we just posted together in the same topics for so long it just gradually happened... after all you did make like 46000 posts on that account
