If its what I think it is,  we take on a persona. I was the Queen one year.  Then you answer posts in your persona's voice.

I never participated, but I loved being in the audience 🙂

Damn, I think that'd be pretty epic. What were the different costumes?

I thought it was stopped because it devolved into racist and discriminatory. Am I misremembering?

I think it was more of a matter of people unrelated to the Halloween stuff making AEs to act like racist shitpigs. The feeling was that creating a bunch of AEs for fun was insensitive and in poor taste.

Someone with a better memory than I might remember differently though.

People took the opportunity to let out their trollish alter egos. We used to have 2 days for "costumes" - Halloween and April 1. I think, maybe, the bitches who took advantage are no longer part of the board, but I would bet they'd take the opportunity to resurface on costume days if given a chance.

Same.  I'm not creative, but I love seeing creative people do their thing!

Yeah, this. I loved our Halloween days. I'm afraid some assholes will come back and spoil it again.

Long Dong Silver had me in stitches. I usually couldn't participate due to often being on the other side of the world or on night shift.

Bad Dingo, this goes way back to that old place and continued over here. Some costumes would troll boards outside of cep. Sometimes it was all in good fun, but lines were definitely crossed.
